Heat Level
3

MEDIUM HEAT: at least one open-door sex scene, primarily focused on emotional responses but may include some physical description. Physical intimacy may be part of the plot.

Ellis Clarke has never felt at home anywhere, always feeling a sense of nostalgia for somewhere that she doesn’t know. When she goes to Beddgelert on vacation, she is overwhelmed by the feeling of belonging. Of course, the handsome Luke may have something to do with that.

Luke Maddox is a Guardian of Wales, a red Dragon who patrols the skies with the rest of his Weyr. When he meets Ellis and she is welcomed home by Merlin, he knows he has found the other half of him… but only if Ellis acknowledges him.

How will she claim him when she has no knowledge of being either a Guardian or a Dragon? Will Ellis find and accept her lost responsibility or will Luke fade away before she figures it out?

 

‘Hiraeth is a Welsh word for homesickness or nostalgia, an earnest longing or desire, or a sense of regret.’

  1. debbiereadsbooks –

    Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.

    Ellis takes a vacation in North Wales, and finds herself feeling so much at home. Meeting Luke helped, but she had to return to Cardiff. Following dreams of dragons and Merlin, Ellis needs to go back to the vacation spot, and then things really get odd.

    I liked this, I liked this a lot!

    It’s a wonderful tale of finding yourself, your past, your future and falling in love!

    Of course, tales of dragons and Merlin help, but the level of research is exceptionally clear here, with lots and LOTS of Welsh tales, myths and legends told.

    The feelings Ellis has for Luke grow and develop over time, and it’s really only they are apart that things start to get serious for both Ellis and Luke. The call of Beddgelert, and indeed, of each other on their souls and hearts is too powerful to ignore. Ellis gets back, but it takes a bit longer for Luke to finally admit that he needs to go home.

    It’s told from Ellis and Luke’s point of view, along with a couple of others that need a say. Each voice is clear and different, most pointedly when Luke talks about his past, his knowledge of what he is and what Ellis is to him. Ellis doesn’t have that, and she needs to learn it.

    There’s no drama or danger, aside from discovering that dragons still exist! It’s not totally clean, there is love and passion here, but nothing explicit. It’s well written and extremely well delivered.

    Lots of Welsh names here, and I had no idea how to pronounce them! But it didn’t spoil my enjoyment, just made me chuckle trying to read them out loud 🙂

    A wonderful, delightful, beautifully written love story, set in Wales, with all its myths and legends about dragons. And now I wanna visit Beddgelert, cos it’s a real place, and see all the wonderful places that Ellis visits!

Originally from the United Kingdom, Morgan Sheppard now resides in Germany, although she freely admits to having left part of her heart in Wales.   Whilst a writer mainly in the fantasy genre, Morgan is more than happy to share her love of reading amongst the many different genres out there, and can always be found with a book close by.

As well as reading and writing, Morgan spends her time looking after her family and trying to learn German. Unfortunately, a natural aptitude for languages doesn’t appear to be one of her strong points. However, stubbornness is, so she continues to persevere. So far, Morgan is confident enough to order a beer and a pretzel.
