Book 50: Amethyst Bound by L. Shannon

About: Toni Giovanni is a thief although she prefers to call it the high-risk recovery business. Her current job feels suspiciously easy until a mysterious artifact draws her into an ancient prophecy and binds her soul to a spirited dragon named Amethyst.But Toni isn’t quite ready to be taken over by a dragon, even if Amethyst’s appetite for sexy archaeologist Dr. Ben Davis mirrors Toni’s own. And she’s got a big problem on her hands: turns out the prophecy predicts that dragons will end the world and there are many more dragons out there.

Toni’s going to need all the help she can get….

What I LOVED: The premise of this book was unique and intriguing.  Dragons were not a storyline I have read in a very long time.

What I LIKED: I really enjoyed most of this book.  Amethyst and Toni were written really well and together they made a great character.  Dr Davis was smart (love that LS celebrates the geek in this book), loyal, hunky, and just everything a good love interest should be.  It made for a very enjoyable read.

What was So-So: It was too short.  I felt like a lot of the story was probably left out and it made me want more information.  I do hope this ends up being a series so that we can explore more of this world.

Why I gave it a 3: The story was very enjoyable and the characters were engaging.  I did not feel that it was long enough but for the length it packed quite a punch.  I would recommend this to any Fantasy/Paranormal Romance reader who wants a quick and enjoyable read!
