Lord's Fall (Elder Races, #5) by Thea Harrison

Lord's Fall (Thea Harrison)

SUMMARY

Before she met Dragos, half-human/half-Wyr Pia Giovanni was alone and on the run. Now she’s mated, pregnant and heading south to repair the Wyrs’ frayed relationship with the Elves. Being separated from Dragos is painful, but for the good of the Wyr demesne they need to figure out how to be partners—in more places than just the bedroom.

In New York to preside over the Sentinel Games, Dragos is worried about his mate, but knows that finding two replacement sentinels is essential to show the rest of the Elder Races just how strong and brutal the Wyr demesne can be. But as the Games heat up, Pia’s negotiations with the Elves take a turn for the dangerous, straining her bond with Dragos and threatening everything they hold dear…

MY REVIEW

Dragos and Pia - Part two Real life will start after the HEA of Dragon Bound. Dragos and Pia are happily mated with little peanut on his way. But now it is also time to start behaving as a married couple i.e. communicate more, listen to each other more, take decisions together and report to their other half about their whereabouts.

Dragos needs to understand that Pia is his equal partner. So, when Pia wants to visit the Light Fae and re-establish the relations between the Wyr and the snotty Elves; Dragos has to let her do it - no matter how much worried he is for her safety.

The continuation of the story for one of the most beloved couples in PNR. This adventure will not be an easy one. Many fights, death and destruction. And yes, we will have another HEA but with a bittersweet taste for everything that was lost.

Dragos cannot definitely function and exist without Pia.

"You might just make me one the happiest men alive, if you don't kill me first"...
"You always scare me, goddammit", he growled. "I've faced monsters and demons and nightmares that most people have never even heard of, but you have always scared me the most. We might make a list of pretty words that we can call each other or use in our relationship, but I don't feel pretty things for you. I feel things for you that are volcanic and dangerous, and I'm not safe at the best of times."
