Publisher Description
USA Today bestselling author Kiersten Fay continues her wickedly sexy Dragon Lords series with this seductive tale of a fierce dragon shifter and the passionate human female who beguiles him.
Trapped in an alien spacecraft through no fault of her own, Jessie Knight is jettisoned into space and intercepted by a mysterious group of soldiers who call themselves dragon shifters. Thrust into a world of myth, legend, and danger, she discovers she may not be entirely human as she begins to develop latent powers that both captivate and mystify her. Placed under the protection of a gorgeous dragon shifter named Orik, she quickly realizes she must conceal her new abilities or be declared his enemy.
No one knows better than Orik Theroux of the King’s Guard that witches are heartless and ruthless killers who must be stamped out of existence. Orphaned by a group of them at a young age, he has vowed to destroy every last witch who crosses his path…until he begins to fall for an exquisite human female who turns out to be more than she seems. When the palace is besieged by witches, he must decide if he can trust Jessie with his life…and his heart.
Customer Reviews
Seduced by the Dragon Lord
The male protagonist is a perpetrator of genocide. People should not be romanticizing these things.
The straight cis white female protagonist vehemently defending herself against a fantasy one-drop rule and being explicitly told if she returned she’d be imprisoned and then donning the surprised pikachu face when she is, is very on brand.
The rest of the cast employs mental gymnastics in hopes that she’s of the model minority instead, which progresses to the loaded “but you’re not a *real* witch”.
Also unsurprisingly uses settler colonialist rhetoric to justify their continued settlement on stolen land and token representation for optics. The idea that an oppressed people must prove themselves to their oppressors is the cherry on top.
These douche canoes are the characters the writing blatantly wants readers to root for.
