“THE DRAGON“Renowned for his prowess on the battlefield and in the bedroom, the Dragon Lord had no desire to wed an heiress he had never before seen. But a landless knight had few opportunities to win a barony, and a faithful subject had no choice but to obey his king. Yet how to select a wife from the three women offered to him? He had no taste for the grieving widow or the sharp-tongued shrew, so the meek virgin it must be.
“THE ROSE
“Confronted by their new lord and master, the women of Ayrdale prepared to accept their destiny. But high-spirited Rose knew she was no thornless blossom just waiting to be plucked. Her gentle twin longed for a cloistered life, whereas Rose had never been known as a shrinking violet and was more than capable of standing up to a dragon. A clever deception would allow her sister to enter the nunnery while an unsuspecting bride awaited her unsuspecting husband for the most unforgettable deflowering of all.”
I have never read Connie Mason before and I think I have just found a new author that I would happy to read more of! This book literally started off with…a “bang” to say the least. The word “cock”—though not necessarily in a vulgar way all of the time—has to have been used at least 100 times (no exaggeration, believe it or not…) and there were no fewer than six sex scenes. In fact, if I had to guess, there were probably around nine or ten of them. However, they were not poorly written or repetitive as one might expect from such a quantity.
The characters were wonderfully written and I was very impressed with the way their personalities were written. There were fantastic aspects of history to the story and only enriched it further. I found myself smiling and thoroughly enjoying the plot. I will most certainly read more of Connie Mason in the future!
