“All this is simply your reaction to my Gifts. You never loved me before, not in all those years. Now that you see what I can do, you've convinced yourself it's more than it is. Its simple instinct."
"Perchance you're right. But the result is the same, isn't it? We were meant to be together in life. That's our law, because that is our instinct, the natural order of our kind. Strongest mates to strongest."
She took the steps necessary to stand before him. She held out a hand to him and he accepted it, lightly, his fingers cradled hers. "This is not life, Rhys."
"No." He studied their locked hands, the pulse in her wrist. "But it is still love. Just as I loved you when we were young--"
"Stop it," she whispered.
"My heart beats for you." He released her fingers and gave her that faint, sardonic smile.
"I am going to marry Hayden."
"I know. And I'm still going to love you." The smile deepened. "Sorry.”

Série particulière avec un côté un peu sombre, l'épilogue n'est jamais joyeux il indique juste à chaque tome que l'histoire n'est pas finit et que les mésaventures des Drakons se poursuivent dans le tomes suivant. J'ai beaucoup aimé le pouvoir de notre héroïne ainsi que l'intrigue Spoiler(cliquez pour révéler)même si je trouve trop simple "d'écarter" le problème du fiancé en le tuant, laissant ainsi le champ libre au prince. Hâte de lire le suivant pour voir comment tout ça se termine.

Résumé
It's the fourth book in the Drákon Series, the story of Rhys Langford and Zoe Lane.
Rhys is a full-fledged drákon, meaning he has all the usual Gifts of his kind: he can Turn from human to smoke to dragon; he has super strength, stealth, grace, and the ability to hear the music of metal and stones. Plus, of course, all that deadly drákon charisma. Too bad he's been kidnapped by the sanf inimicus, his human enemies...and he might even be dead.
Zoe, like most females of her kind, can't Turn at all. But she's developed a few other surprising Gifts of her own. She's going to need every one of them if she's going to help Rhys--which, frankly, she hasn't decided yet she really wants to do. They've got a history, these two. And it isn't sweet.
Zoe and Rhys turned out to be quite the characters. I think they're both a little more gritty than some of my previous protagonists, and I like that. Their story is set primarily in eighteenth century Paris, a few years before the revolution. Lots of turmoil, lots of drama and action.
