Bad Dragons #3
Soul of the Dragons
Anna is in a bind. Five dragons love her, so completely they’ll risk everything. But as much as being wanted, protected, and loved by so many sexy guys reaches beyond even Anna’s wildest fantasies, she doesn’t know how she can possibly pick between them.
Unfortunately, Anna made a promise before coming to the Blur. And now a dark adversary is here to collect on that promise made in the basement of a dingy library so long ago. And even though the dragons have something to say about it, their strength alone will never be enough to stop them.
But if they unify around their mate, if they learn to work together, just maybe they can win. Meanwhile, Anna will be forced to make the toughest decision she’s ever made, all while the fate of the world and her beloved dragons is in her hands.
Because in the Blur, there are some things that even dragons are afraid of.

Eh. Not the best I’ve read of the authors dragon shifter books. I’d have thought that these were some of the earliest written. Was okay at a stretch. Since I’m a glutton of punishment, I read all three back to back to back. Good times.

Amazing ending🤩
The third and final book in the Bad Dragons series is finally here! Time to catch up with Anna and her dragons in the Blur and find out what’s happening next❣️ This book has everything you could want in a paranormal book by Terry and should not be missed. I normally like to tell you more about what’s happening in the story, but I feel like that might give a few spoilers and I try to avoid those at all costs😁 Great story and I look forward to more in the future.
Thank you Terry for my advanced copy for which I voluntarily leave my honest review 💕

Amazing reverse harem love and magnificent dragon shifter action
This is a heartwarming story of big love, friendship and redemption. Anna gets to have her last pair of dragons.
"I don't want to break you. I want to help you." 'My heart is big enough to love you all.'
The story takes place in the same dragon shifter universe as other Terry Bolryder's dragon shifter romances. We even get to encounter the mysterious Oracle. We see all of the dragons finding finally their mate and purpose and place in the world when the Oracle and Anna give them their second chance which is all the Oracle has always wanted for them.
I really loved the book, the hot sweet love and gorgeous dragon action against a vile villain. I really would love to read more books like this, the reverse harem romance and paranormal shifter action, in this same universe created by Terry Bolryder.

I am still fanning myself after finishing this book. The whole series comes together here as we find out what Anna is really doing in the Blur, and I don't mean the dragons (which she is so doing!). It will all come down to the dragons all working together to protect Anna and the human realm from a really bad Fae Prince. Can they forget their differences and just get the job done? And what of the mysterious Lee? You are going to love it, just don't forget your fan!

***Read series in order*** They must all come together to defeat an enemy and to claim their mate, will they?
This was a great ending to this series! I loved the fact that you can see each of the men slowly evolve and come together towards their common goal. I definitely didn't expect the last piece of the puzzle to come together like it did, but it was great. I loved how she was determined to do anything she could to keep all her dragons safe. Great series!

This is the final book in the series
I loved this series & this book it held you all the way through with all of the 5 dragons wanting to mate her & Lee well won't say much about him or it can spoil it
This had twists & turns & while I did sort of guess the end I still loved the ending
I received this from the author but I didn't receive anything to influence my review of the book

You find out more about the dragon's that make you love them more.
It's not an easy ending,keeps you guessing but it's worth it.

Great story
This was a great finale to the "Bad Dragons" series. The Dragons and Anna all got what they each wanted in the end. Even though it was revenge that it started for Lee to send Anna on the path to his friends. Anna helped all of her dragons from letting what happened in their past haunt them in their futures. I wish that this book could have been a lot longer than it was and also I wish that there would be a big book where all of the Oracle's Dragons of all kinds, the Tigers and other species meet together and be friends to help save the world from danger. This book did have a few mistakes in the book but I didn't let it overshadow the story or about my enjoyment of sitting on the edge of my seat wanting to keep reading, enjoying Anna and her Dragons journey building towards their future together.

Series review
I enjoyed this series a lot, although I think I’d probably rate it 3.5 stars. This is definitely in the New Adult genre. FMC doesn’t even have sex until the third book. It bothered me that the female didn’t seem to have any self control or self respect. FMC was literally panting after dragons that all but abused her. So, like I said before, I enjoyed the series but it wasn’t without flaws.

We now come to the toughest part of any book or series, in my opinion. The ending. You can leap for the moon, but in writing the big question is always whether you’re gonna stick the landing. There was a lot riding on this book. Will Anna get a satisfying ending with her dragons? Why did Lee send her to the Blur? And will we finally get to see just what kinda chemistry all these people have? Well, I’ve got something to say about each of those things. So if you’d like my two cents, keep reading…
If you’ve been waiting not-so-patiently for sexy times, this is where they’re at. I can understand why Terry hold off on this, wanting to use it as drama in Anna’s indecision about which dragons she’ll choose. (Although that aspect kinda didn’t work for me—we know this is reverse harem where the #WhyChoose? Element is as integral to its execution as an HEA is to romance.) I also found that for me, as someone who finds love scenes can be something that is hit or miss, that everything started to blur (pun not intended) together. I liked the scene with Griffin and Rainier, but after that it all started to get read and forgotten almost faster than my eyes could skim my kindle. It was too much, too close together. And that’s unfortunate because Terry *can* write good love scenes and I could tell she *was* trying here.
As much as the overdose of sexy times bothered me, though, the whole issue with Lee was the most unfortunate part of the book. I love the idea that he was kind of a villain. I was cool with the fact that he was going to be redeemed. Terry has done stories where this happens before, and they have worked. But because of the way this trilogy was structured, and the number of love interests we were trying to juggle, there just wasn’t enough her to give him the necessary teeth to be really interesting, nor the room to properly grant redemption if he had been given those in the first place. On top of that, Lee is a Blue (healer) dragon, and they are traditionally very gentle and kind (which likely explains the lack of bite.) What this resulted in, unfortunately, was an antagonist who was manipulative, indecisive and whiny.
As for that happy ending? Yes, we get it and despite how hard I just roasted Lee up there I am happy that Anna and all her dragons made it through and got to be together. The ending and overall book climax were well done, making up for some of my issues in the first half of the novel.
Overall? My favorite dragons were Rainier and Seth. For the most part the series moved at a good clip that kept me interested. And I was ultimately that little tinge sad to let go of the characters when I got to the end of the story. All by itself, book three of the Bad Dragon trilogy would earn 3 hearts. But since it’s the conclusion of not just a series, but a three book long love story, I’m adding a heart because it ultimately did a great job at getting the love interests together and causing me to close the book happy for them, which is the core goal of any romance.

Hot steamy read
I have read most of Terry's books and loved them all. But this series has to be the most exciting fun reading with twists and turns that kept me glued to the pages. Hot sexy dragons, steamy erotic sex and A big hearted, sensual woman who loves them all. Must read for all PNR fans

Wonderful final book in this series, wonderful finale!!
In this book we are able to discover who the actual bad guys are and it most definitely is not the dragons, they may have had to do some questionable things that have kept them and theirs safe but overall, they are honourable.
It is obvious that Anna is a very special individual she is a Dragonheart and not only are these rare they are very important and will make an important difference to the dragons. Anna’s influence on them as individuals is dramatic and it is important to note just how much she is giving up of herself to join them in their quest.
There are lots of surprises in this book and even with five dragons there is still a chance that they might not win however, with Anna’s help they believe that they can achieve their dreams and the incentive to participate is just too good to turn down/
I voluntarily received and review an Advanced Reader Copy
I thoroughly enjoyed the book and look forward to reading any future publications; keep up all the great writing.

Bad elves, bad dragons, bad wolves, bad bears - just about everything in the Blur is bad. But one feisty dragonheart will risk everything to save her dragons from the Blur. 6 smoking hot dragons and one very bad elf make for an action packed conclusion with plenty of heat (and I'm not just talking about dragon breath). Watching these 6 broken dragons recover from their tragic upbringings to become the dragons they were always meant to be was a joy to behold ( I really hated the fact that there could be bad dragons). I loved how this story concluded with the absolute best possible solutions for every character's dilemma.
Warning - This series has to be read in order, as it is a serial and the first two books end in cliffhangers.
I want to thank the author for allowing her books in the Kindle Unlimited program and I encourage everyone to check out this great author and her many amazing books.

I liked the finale the best!
I think because there was a culmination of all the angst and that things finally came together like I wanted them to! All 6 of these dragons are so different, but they all could add up to one great team, if they can just figure out how to get along. Anna finally shows more of her true colors. This series is like one large story broken into 3 smaller bits.
There is a super-fast pace and a more upbeat tone in this story. The character oriented storyline is full of action and some steamy scenes. The characters are vivid and draw you into the story. You have to read this series in order. Then, you may enjoy the Double Dragons box set and the follow-up Tiger Protectors box set. Then there are all the rest of Terry Bolryder's Dragon series. I love them all. If you like strong characters who happen to be shifters who mostly mate with humans and have adventures on their way to an HEA, then Terry Bolryder is an author for you! Enjoy!

August 24, 2019The final story. We find out who the real bad guys are and it isn't the dragons. Oh, they've done some bad things, gotten themselves in trouble, but Anna has come into their lives and convinced them they are not so bad. There is a chance for them, maybe.
I loved seeing the changes in the dragon. Anna is a special person and for sure a Dragonheart. The guys are beginning to work together.
I can only say there are more surprises to come. The enemy is formidable and even five dragons may not be able to win. Can Anna give them the incentive to come together? If they win what will happen to them?
I can guarantee you'll enjoy the read and root for these guys but more will ruin the story with spoilers. So enjoy and wait for the next good story from the author who never disappoints.

Third part Soul of the Dragons 💛
I waited patiently for this the final book of the trilogy and it didn't disappoint me. The characters in this story are amazing at first I ha to write down the names and colour of these amazing Dragons starting with Lee the blue Dragon Rainier the silver Griffin the red Seth the black Van the purple and Byran the gold. I don't know how Anna can keep up with them and she really is a dragon heart. All these characters make good reading and I think I've falling for the all too. Anna goes through an adventure with them all that every day is different from the day before. Anna also lives in hope to save her sister and all the Dragons 💛 thanks for writing this amazing story Terry 💛💛

Third and final book of the Bad Dragon series. A great series that will take you to another world where being paranormal is the norm and humans aren’t seen. But this realm only has those who have commented crimes. So don’t expect any good guys. I highly suggest reading in order.
Anna is a human who lives life with her whole heart. She loves and forgives easily. So when five dragons all want her how is she to decide who she wants? And these gorgeous males won’t make it easy as they show her all they can give her.
Tons of action and fighting. Romance doesn’t come easy for a dragon but they don’t give up. Plenty of dreaminess all around.

This is book #3 in the Bad Dragons series and it does have a HEA. This is a reverse harem/shifter book in the ever expanding world that Terry Bolryder has created. The characters are interesting but you don't really get to know them as in depth as you normally would. You do learn what happened to them that made them act the way they did and you can see the personal growth that occurs during the ongoing series.
It's an enjoyable read but I don't think it should be read as a stand-alone book. You need to read all three in the series in a fast sequence/time period to get the most out of them.

This is the third and final book in this series and it did not disappoint. The dragons changed during the progression of the relationship for the better. They learned to work together and compliment each other. Loved the different personalities of Anna and her dragons. I enjoyed the interaction between Anna and her dragon mates. The story was well developed and flowed well. It was interesting with drama, danger, love and exciting to find out all of the info about why things happen during the story.

I don't even know where to start with the last installment of the Bad Dragons series; it was definitely worth the cliff hangers to get to this happy ever after. Finally, we figure out what happened to Lee, the blue dragon, and how Anna, the dragon heart finally figures out which of the dragons to mate with. The story was spicy, steamy, had some unexpected twists and thankfully, the Happy end, I've come to expect from Terry Bolryder. I read it in a day and am actually sad it's over.

Great end to the series
Anna gets her HEA. No spoilers, let's just say you will love it! 5 sexy dragons are in the Blurr with Anna, our Dragon heart. They all want us as their mate. How will she chose? She loves them all! Then there's Lee, a sixth Dragon (who's Dragon is missing). What a decision!
She makes the best decision after hot experimentation with all the males, lucky girl!
Definitely worth reading!

Not bad at all. Pretty darn great, in fact!
This was a lovely story about character growth; all the dragons had such interesting emotional and mental journeys to take. Certain spots may have felt a little rushed, but emotional/mental transitions are the trickiest things. The author also did a great job with the action sequences. The final fight with the big bad boss had me really worried for a moment. But we do get our happily ever after.
