They cursed me to save my people. But who will save me from…him?

As a baby, I was gifted with magic meant to spare us from the wrath of the dragons. Eternal sleep, to be broken only by true love’s kiss.

Nobody could have expected my true love would be the very creature I was meant to be shielded against.

Now, with his kingdom laid to ruin by my father’s hand, the creature seeks his vengeance. My body will bear the penance of my father’s betrayal in the most brutal ways possible.

But I was given another gift. A gift that allows me to not only bear his fury, but revel in it. The more he punishes me, the more my body delights in his rage.

I might even enjoy the moment he finally shatters me beyond repair.

Breaking Briar is a dark romance in the Darkly Ever After series. Please read the warnings to make sure you can handle this story.

This is like the barebones rough draft of what could have been an amazing story. Unfortunately it’s all quick broad strokes with hardly any actual story. It reads a bit like a creative writing assignment that had a word limit. What could have been an epic romantic fantasy/ fairy tale retelling seems to gloss over 90% of the story just to get to a semi ok sex scene. Without build up or any character development the scene just falls flat. It’s a bit like a rushed ripoff of Anne Rices The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty…. But with a dragon shifter. I bought this on sale for $6-$7. The best I can say: so much potential…. That falls so tragically short. Skip this one. It’s honestly not worth $5 and definitely not a credit. Even as pure smut ladyporn I’d still say skip this one.

It could have been great…..but it wasn’t
