Book Review: Dragon Mist by David Burnett

As the third daughter of a third daughter, dragon-shifter Christine Drachen must mate with a human. Not all human males are genetically compatible with dragon shifters, and suitable matches are rare in old Charleston. Christine, though, has identified James to be an appropriate match. Even humans who acknowledge the possibility of dragons cannot believe that one can be both a dragon and a human, shifting between the two. As a result, Christine must attract James without fully revealing her true, shifting nature until they have committed to mate. Christine shows James the gold dragon she always wears around her neck. He notices the prints, statues, and tapestries of dragons that decorate her family's home. Strange noises emanate from behind the Drachens' house during a party, and James believes he actually sees a dragon, one wearing a necklace like Christine's. Christine's last name, Drachen, means "dragon," and, while she jokes her entire family is composed of the creatures, James begins to suspect there is more to what she says than a simple attempt at humor. Finally, he sees her shift. To protect their species from persecution, dragon-shifters silence any human who sees one of them shift, and the most practical method is generally death. The rule is absolute. But Christine has fallen in love with James. How can she protect her family without killing the boy she loves?Dragon Mist is a story of boy-meets-girl, with a few non-human characters, high stakes, a bit of magic, a little humor, and an abundance of romance.

MY REVIEW:

Dragon Mist: A Paranormal Romance by David Burnett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Christine Drachen is a dragon shifter. She is the 3rd daughter of a 3rd daughter and ,must mate with a human. Christine is a little on the wild side and had a fun packed summer that seemed to have caught up to her between a boy who wants to be with her and a Prof.
But Christine has her eye on James and when they touch there are sparks and she wants him to be her mate. He has learned her last name means dragon and she wears a necklace of a dragon and he thinks some of the things she has said are all a big joke. If a dragon shifts in front of a human then the human has to die so she can not shift in front of him
This was different than other dragon shifter books that I have read since dragons have shifted in front of humans so this was a new twist on dragon shifters. I really liked Christine's sisters and her dad wants her to find a mate. Her mom seems to be more strict.
Thank you to David Burnett for the ARC to read for an honest review.
