Fire in His Chaos (Fireblood Dragon, #8)
Ruby Dixon
In dangerous Fort Dallas, Rachel is untouchable. All she has to do is hand over her panties every day. Sure, it’s weird, but it keeps her safe, right? And if there’s a reason behind it, she doesn’t care. Until she finds out that she’s dragon bait. That changes things. To stay in the fort’s sheltering walls, Rachel needs to ‘befriend’ a dragon and establish a mental connection with him. Drakoni male Jurik may be protective of her, and caring…but he’s still a dragon, and just as lost to the madness as any of them. He can’t be trusted. No dragon can. Rachel wears the scars from the last time she tangled with one, so seducing one seems absurd. Or is it? Because Jurik doesn’t see her scars… all he sees is her. Is he her worst nightmare? Or everything she needed?”

Your rating:
was nice to finally get a bit more info on the BBEG/macro plot, but most of this book felt too same-y to previous (aka bored of it by this point)
- I wanted to dive back into this atmosphere / vibes, which this book did very well, considering it's practically indistinguishable from the others in the series... = boring?
- again with a heroine who knows what needs to happen but won't do what she needs to do
- this main male character seemed less crazy than some previous, mostly because of the babies I think (major plot device?)
- this felt pretty insta-love /had no real emotional development over the course of the book
- was finally nice to get more of the macro plot/BBEG, though the 'must breed to save the world' bit is a big YIKES
- Rachel being disfigured / "ugly" and an amputee was somehow both internal dialogue of "I'm ugly/unworthy" and also "nobody will rape me though, whew" which leans heavily on the oppressive and depressing atmosphere
- most reviewers seem to also put this as a three-star
- I suppose Jurik was ~fairly charming
