Carol [Goodreads Addict]'s Reviews > Alpha Dragon Awakes, part three

Alpha Dragon Awakes is book three in the serial series, Outside the Veil by T.J. Shaw. This is the conclusion to Jaxon and Amari’s story although T.J. has assured me there are many more stories to tell in this series! There are so many things going on in this third book that I was literally on the edge of my seat throughout. I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough to see what happens next!



Amari still doesn’t have her memory so she has no idea what animal lives within her. But, she’s convinced it must be a horrible beast. Someone had put up that barrier in her mind, trapping it, for a reason. When shifters are twenty three years old and the trinity happens, when all three of their moons are at their brightest, it’s when they shift for the first time. But they have prepared for this their entire lives. They already have a relationship with their inner beast. Amari has no idea what it is and wants no part of it. One thing Amari is sure of, though, is that she has fallen in love with Jaxon and her life here on his estate. If Jaxon can’t find a way to safely bring her animal out during the trinity, she will turn rogue. She would rather die than turn rogue and put Jaxon through that pain.



Jaxon is in love with Amari. She is his mate. Even though they haven’t completed the mating bond, the connection is still strong. Never has someone successfully helped a shifter through their first transition when they have no relationship with their animal, when they don’t even know what it is. But Jaxon’s skills are strong. He can do it. He has to do it because he can’t live without her. Somehow he just has to convince Amari to trust him.



In this book we get an even closer look at Amari’s parents and their cadre. They want their daughter back and can’t imagine why she hasn’t come home.

We also get to know Jaxon’s cadre much better and their intertwining relationship with him.



We also get to know who is behind the attacks on Amari, who wants her and why! He is a very, very evil person and I suspect that this is the story line that is going to carry through the future books in this series!



As I said before, everything is happening at the same time and it took my breath away. I stayed up past my bedtime because no way could I go to sleep last night not knowing how this ended. If you haven’t started this series yet, now is the perfect time since all three books will be out. This is such a fantastic world this author has created and I can’t wait for more.

For more about this book and so many more, I hope you'll join me at Carol's Crazy Bookish World.
