My Thoughts:

I really liked this book. There are several POV’s which may be confusing to some. It’s also written as third person.

The story is about a kingdom where every fifteen years, dragons come to mate. ( Game of Thrones vibes.) Cayda is the one in her family that has to become Cody in order to slay the dragon.

I really felt for Cody/Cayda because of how she had to live with her father.

This book has love and tons of adventure. I couldn’t put this book down I needed to know what was going to happen.

Cayda is a great character she teaches you to persevere an be who you want to be, even though in the beginning she was in able to do so.

I haven’t read many LGBTQIA books but this one is really amazing. It makes me want to read more of this genre.

I received this arc from the publisher.
