Jarek by Erin Tate by Celia Kyle
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Dragon shifter and Prior Warrior Jarek sen Claron is 457 years old and is ready for his final flight into the skies. He has travelled to Earth as the War Master for the Prior third fleet and has decided that this will be his final assignment. He will help his fellow Preor to find human women as mates and will return home before the madness of loneliness takes over his mind. Everything changes the split second that he sees human Melissa, however, she was never registered as a mate hopeful and with the Knowing between them she should not be able to resist him, but she then does just that! Jarek really wants to giver her a choice but everything within him is screaming at him to just put her under his wing and mate her no matter what she says. However, he has some enemies circling him and so does not want to pull her into that situation. It seems that it is not popular among his kind that the son of a man who was a Preor mass murder should have a mate. Can he survive what is coming or will he die without having any more interaction with him?

This was an action-packed start to the series as Jarke fought for his life as those who were against him did everything in their power to rid the world of him. I felt very sorry for him as it is not great when the child has to pay for the sins of the father but I did find Melissa to be a very strange character. It seemed like she was very spoilt the way she kept running to the Ujal for help and their protection - something which jarred against the fact that she had had to be so strong and able to care for herself. I am just glad that she finally realised that fighting it was a pointless exercise and that her mate was being constantly severely injured as he tried to protect her and ensure that she was free of the men who were after him. Easy to read and understand, I would definitely read the next story in the series and just hope it was a bit more believable. Contains some explicit sexual content.
