About this ebook

Once mated, these shifters will do anything to protect the women they love!

The would-be heroine...

Aeron wants nothing more than to live out her very long, solitary life in a small metal room listening to communications for the Federation Military. It's not glamorous. It's not even charming. But it's safe and there's no chance of getting hurt.

When she intercepts a communication about an impending attack on the Qurilixian people, she has no choice but to act. No one at the Federation seems inclined to do anything and it's up to her to save them. Desperate, she enlists the help of her degenerate sister, whose only solution is to trick Aeron into signing up as a prospective bride to the primitive aliens she's trying to rescue.

The man who did not need saved...

Dragon-shifter nobleman Lord Bron, is not looking forward to his seventh failed attempt at a marriage ceremony. But when he sees the lovely Aeron he knows his years of waiting have finally paid off. Fate has blessed him with a life mate...

Or have they?

His new bride is insistent she's not there for marriage, but for a mission. Dragon shifters mate for life and it's up to Bron to convince her they are fated to be, or he'll risk spending the rest of his days alone.

Book Five of the Dragon Lords series:This is the original Dragon Lords series by NY Times and USA TODAY Bestselling Author, Michelle M. Pillow.

"Michelle M. Pillow’s Qurilixen World romances are like chocolate for my eyeballs. I fell in love with Aeron and Bron. They’re magical together." - Cynthia Sax, USA Today Bestseller

Very good story. It is strange to have read the other books then to read this one. Everything has a different flavor or taste to it. I can't explain it any better, sorry. The story of the Duke and his Lady is different from the other Princesses. They had to take care for different reasons. This one though is in concern of the whole planet. The technology is amazing to hear about too. I received a complimentary review copy of the book and I am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

Fun romp. When Aeron discovers a plot she is determined to save the Draig but her only option to deliver the warning is to join the Galaxy Bride transport. She’s determined to stay on mission but Bron, who recognizes her as his mate, it determined to change her mind. Fun romp loaded with misunderstandings and a great romance.

This book was shorter than the first 4 but it was good in it's delivery, lots of twists and turns in this one folks. I highly recommend giving it a read. In the fifth book of the Dragon Lords series we learn of what happen if you don't get to choose a wife at the bridal ceremony. Lord Bronislaw the high Duke of planet Qurilixen has been through this before 6 times maybe 7 he has really decide that if it doesn't happen for him this time he was not going to attend any more instead he will live the rest of his days out alone wifeless and childless .But he's luck will change for the better or so he hopes this time around Aeron Grey and officer for The Federation overhears a transmission of a possible take over and possible destruction of Qurilixen for it Ore. There's no way in hell she was going to let a thing like that happen again, it how she lost her people and it's home. When she confronts her bosses to help and they in turn do nothing she seeks the help of her sister. They both leave and meet up with Galaxy Bride's and find there way to the planet to warn it's people. Only one snag she is there as a bride and no one will listen. She is chosen by Bron and the wedding night goes wrong. There are a lot of twists and turns in this book and even more things to bring Aeron to decide what is best should she go after telling Bron why she was really there or should she stay realizing she was beginning to truly love Bron and what will happen to her sister with what ever Aeron decides .
