What A Dragon Should Know
What A Dragon Should Know | G.A. Aiken
7 posts | 11 read | 5 to read
Only for those I love would I traipse into the merciless Northlands to risk life, limb, and my exquisite beauty. But do they appreciate it? Do they say, "Gwenvael the Handsome, you are the best among us--the most loved of all dragons?" No! For centuries my family has refused to acknowledge my magnificence as well as my innate humility. Yet for them, and because I am so chivalrous, I will brave the worst this land has to offer. So here I stand, waiting to broker an alliance with the one the Northlanders call The Beast. A being so fearful, the greatest warriors will only whisper its name. Yet I, Gwenvael, will courageously face down this terrifying. . .woman? It turns out the Beast, a.k.a. Dagmar Reinholdt, is a woman--one with steel-gray eyes and a shocking disregard for my good looks. Beneath her plain robes and prim spectacles lies a sensual creature waiting to be unleashed. Who better than a dragon to thaw out that icy demeanor? And who better than a beast to finally tame a mighty dragon's heart?

Listening to one of my current reads on the way to work! It's a good thing I'm using earbuds for this read! 😳😂😍 I think this is my favorite of the books in this series, Gwenvael is hysterical! Also, I get to pass these beautiful blooming trees each day as I walk into and out of work and they are profuse right now! #BloomingLitsy

madamereadsalot1 @Michollio have you read these books!? Have you mentioned this to me before and I'm just a forgetful dolt? Or am I just learning this!? I've wanted someone to "squee" over these books with for SO LONG! And no one I know or interact with has every read them. That makes me sad. Lol! 5y

Michollio Ha ha. We did talk about this because I used a quote from one of them for Quotsy. NBD. They're really fun books. 5y
madamereadsalot1 @Michollio lol! I'm not surprised. I'm so forgetful, I thought today was Thursday and took my kids to an event that was definitely not happening today because it is actually Wednesday. 😅 5y

It was those damn wool socks. He didn‘t realize he loved her until she
told him about out-negotiating a god of war—the most haggle-loving of the
gods—with socks!
