ABOUT Eight Simple Rules:

Kerrelyn Sparks is no stranger to the New York Times bestseller list, as her massive fan base couldn’t seem to get enough of her Love at Stake series. Sparks then introduced her extraordinary fantasy romance series, The Embraced, with How to Tame a Beast in Seven Days and So I Married a Sorcerer. Set in a medieval mythical world, the series follows a special group of people with powers born when the two moons of the world form an eclipse. Now comes the captivating third installment, EIGHT SIMPLE RULES FOR DATING A DRAGON (St. Martin’s Paperbacks; March 27, 2018), where readers meet Gwennore, our fierce and powerful new heroine.

Gwennore is an Elf able to track down the cause of an illness and heal it; a valuable asset to her people. But when she is thrust into the realm of the dragons, she discovers a haunted place of power and magic, plagued by an ancient curse.  And then she meets the smoldering General Silas Dravenko. She’s been raised never to trust a dragon, but never did making a deal with the devil feel so good…

Silas has no way of saving the royal family he’s served for years. But when a beautiful elf comes bursting into his world, Silas is awakened to desire in a way he’s never felt before. But can he trust a sworn enemy?

Filled with romance, adventure, and a vividly imagined new world, EIGHT SIMPLE RULES FOR DATING A DRAGON is a fantasy in the vein of Game of Thrones with all the fun of The Princess Bride. Audiences will become enthralled with Gwennore in a world where passion, fantasy, and royal intrigue collide. Return to the most exciting, magical and romantic series to come along in years in the stunning world of the Embraced!

REVIEW:

Kerrelyn has woven a rich tapestry with this series!  And, the problem with finding a new series you love?  When it isn't completed yet!  It is SO hard waiting for the next book!!  In fact, I love it so much I had to buy all 3 in audio format so I could "read" them again on my way to and from work.  (I have a 50-minute drive one way.)

I am absolutely in LOVE with the characters in this series.  They are deeply detailed characters - with all the flaws and imperfections AND all the strengths, wisdom, and courage of people you might find as friends in real life. The girls are a family.  And, with their guys, a quickly expanding family.

Watching Gwennore grow in this story from a shy, retiring young woman into the brave, beautiful, and feisty woman she can be while finding the perfect man for her is so entertaining and poignant at the same time.  It is a thoroughly engaging read!
