What can I say? I didn't like this one at all. It seemed rushed, the ending was clearly bad and it just wasn't logical. You meet another man, who is your soulmate, and of course he has to want you back and love you even if you have only spend couple of hours together. Where is the bonding? Where's the learning to know the other man? I found the characters and happenings unreal. I also found it puzzling, that first it was told one of the characters was hundred years old and experienced with men. Then suddenly later on he wasn't that experienced and wanted to try things with his mate. Is it possible to make up your mind about what he is?... I also find it strange, that as a hundred year old you would whine or be bothered about studying. Yes, of course studying is important and everyone learns it every day, but if you are old enough you wouldn't care about do you get it done right away or just wait couple of more centuries to finish. If you have limitless time in your hands, you look at things a bit differently.Why am I reading Amber Kell? Good question. I probably could write better stories myself. I had been looking forward to this book for sometime and unfortunately it was very disappointing. Aden went back and forth so rapidly between denying and accepting the mating it was confusing and seemed poorly thought out. None of the issues in the book were resolved and the entire story seemed rushed and incomplete. It should have been a free prelude into the next story where Aden and Gallens story was fully told and their issues identified and worked through. The new dragon shifter series looks interesting and I will read it as I am a huge fan of the other Banded Brothers books.
