To Ignite A Pyrite Spirit Review

4/5 Stars
Review:
This was an interesting story I had to give it some time to resonate before writing my review. I liked the world building. It was interesting how a lot of the characters weren’t all dragon shifters. The story definitely intrigued me. I don’t think I’ve ever read a story that had mates that weren’t fated before. It was definitely good. I liked how it was kind of fast paced in a way. I’m rating this 4 out of 5 stars and 2 out of 5 for spice! Here are the tropes:
Dragon Shifters
Villain Backstory
Arranged Marriage
Enemies to Lovers
He falls first
Betrayal and Deception
Mates (Not Fated)
Romantasy
Mythical Creatures
Portal Fantasy
Blurb:
Where there is smoke. . . there is always fire.
For more than a century, dragons ruled the skies without excitement or fear. That instantly changes when a shadow appears from a world beyond with a deal too enticing to ignore. Aedan and his mages seek shelter in exchange for a bonding ritual of the dragon's golden king, Eldates, to their beautiful high priestess. But everything is not as it seems.
Captivated by Cenara, Valk refuses to lose the chance to claim her for himself. As he makes each move, he becomes further tangled in her enchantments, revealing a side of himself he'd not known before. Pyrite might not be gold, but those sun-kissed eyes stalk him all the same.
As more of her secrets come out, all of his morals are called into question. To love the mage would mean turning his back on his family. With everyone around Valk demanding action, he’s left with only one decision to make: confront what he thinks might be genuinely evil or surrender himself to their plans.
Is love worth Valk's soul if it ignites his spirit?
Note: This is a villain backstory.
To ignite a Pyrite Spirit is part of the Bound by Flame multi author collection and also takes place in the Dryad Chronicles world with ties to characters in other books.
