4.0
Quick Info
Standalone/Cliffhanger?: Cliffhanger
Part of a Series?: Yes
----------------------------------
Meeting the Characters
Kira
Auric
Jasin
Slade
Reven
----------------------------------
What happens?
It is Auric's turn to bond with Kira. When they arrive in the air territory, the others are arrested for the kidnapping of the prince. Kira is shocked and hurt that Auric didn't tell her he was the prince in the royal air family. She is even more shocked and hurt when she finds out he was engaged to marry a beautiful woman.
Auric has to overcome the hurt and betrayal he caused Kira to prove he wants her and is in love with her. He also employs Jasin to show him how to please Kira so their first time together in the air temple can go smoothly and be enjoyable for both.
Final thoughts
This is where is starts to get serious; we see more dragons. More from Reven being the bad assassin by showing very slowly he isn't as bad as he has made himself out to be. This book was just as good as the first one.

This was my least favorite book of the original four in the series, but it's still a solid 4 stars for me, so that's saying something. I couldn't stop reading, I wanted to read the next in the series, I enjoyed the spice scenes and the relationship development. The politics of the book were a bit boring, and the Hero's "secret" was a little bit eyerolling, but I understand that this book had to be the way it was for the series and how the pieces work together.
If for whatever reason you're with me on not liking the politics, read the next one anyways. You won't regret it.

Actually 3.5 stars
In her Seraphim Academy series, author Elizabeth Briggs deftly balances romance, plot, and character development with near-perfect results. Unfortunately, she couldn't do the same for the Her Elemental Dragons series. The characters are all likable and compelling, and this book pushes the character development forward successfully. I really like Auric, his family and his friends. That part really works for me. The plot advances, too, though not quickly and there are quite a few similarities to the first book (though given the story structure of the series, that may be inevitable). However, the romance elements are flat. There's little romantic tension and when Auric and Kira do consummate their relationship and bond, it's over quickly and doesn't really deal with their feelings for each other. This book isn't bad, but it could have been so much better.
