"Keeping a hibernating dragon should have been a simple thing. Should have been, but it was not. Apparently, nothing involving dragons was ever simple, at least not for Anne Elliot, junior Keeper to dragon Kellynch. With the estate in debt, Anne?s father in denial, and the dragon?s treasure missing, Kellynch?s awakening is shaping up to be nothing short of catastrophe. Not to mention, there was the pesky matter of her own broken heart and resentment against the old friend who had caused it. Captain Frederick Wentworth had spent his life making something of himself in the Navy. With the war that kept him employed at an end and a small fortune in prize money, he found himself beached and at loose ends. What was he to do with himself now?take a wife like Laconia, his dragon Friend, insisted? Not when none compared to the woman who had broken his heart. Working as an agent of the Blue Order, managing dragon matters across England, seemed a much better alternative. At least until investigating one such matter sent him directly in the path of Anne Elliot, the woman who had ruined him for all others. Now a royal dragon rages, a sleeping dragon lurks, and too many treasures have gone missing. Can Anne and Wentworth lay aside resentment, pride, and heartbreak to prevent Kellynch?s awakening from ending in bloodshed?or worse?Jane Austen meets Pern in a fantastical regency romp bound to delight readers of Jane Austen and Anne McCaffrey alike. Book 6 in the Jane Austen's Dragons series.--… (altro)

Dragon persuasion makes Anne Elliot a much more interesting person. It also makes sense in this story. According to the rules of the Blue Order, dragons must behave in a certain manner, not posing as humans, not manipulating dragon hearers, not threatening their keepers. So much rule-breaking in this story. It was amazing!

Also for readers who missed Wentworth in the previous book, he is in much of this one. But he has a few things to learn. Not only is Anne now more resistant to persuasion, she also doesn't need a man to rescue her. If he still thinks she's the perfect woman for her, he's going to have to adapt a bit as well. I thought that was a fantastic twist and feminism fit for Austen.

This series is getting better and better. I bought the Anne Elliot/Wentworth pairing more than the Elizabeth Bennett/Darcy one in this rendition (although Elizabeth/Darcy have grown on me as their stories developed further in the Persuasion books.) Their characters and the romance made sense and was charming. I look forward to seeing where Maria Grace takes all of these characters and the dragons next.

I requested a review copy of this audiobook from the narrator and have reviewed it willingly. ( )
