Dragons, mysteries, romance and multiple ongoing storylines. Yes please. I’m just loving this series by Joy Lynn Fielding. Her Wings Over Albion just got more intriguing while expanding the series foundation knowledge and known dragon families previously laid out.
Now , as the book begins ,the fearsome, totally powerful head of dragons, Abimelech Mortimer, has call a moot, a gathering of the heads of the dragon families in a neutral location, for a major announcement. As well as other purposes on his agenda.
As the dragons rarely leave their own territories, this is an exceptional event, fraught with challenges and potential undertones. A fabulous way to introduce the characters and the stakes involved with the players and challenges faced.
We see briefly, some of the characters of the other novels. But our immediate attention will fall on the newest characters and dragons. As it should because they are remarkable.
Especially Ollie Shaw. Ollie is that character who shows astonishing growth from the awkward, somewhat disrespected lesser member of his family to dragon who lives and loves largely. His journey, which encompasses that of Archer Talbot, and his siblings Tim and Mia, is revelatory. We rejoice with him and Archer, along with Mia and Tim, as they shift in their thinking, struggling with their own personal pasts, and restructure into a believable, magnificent warm-hearted family. One we dearly want more of in the end.
Fielding adds to the dragon mythology and knowledge she’s building as well as bringing more dragons of color into the series. Everything is weaving together into a fabulous series tapestry that melds King Arthur, mystery, dragon politics, and love. I can’t help to see what happens next.
This is beautifully written, fantastic characters and gorgeous plots. Highly recommended!

Dragon’s Folly: MM paranormal romance, Wings over Albion, Book 3
Blurb
Falling for him would be pure folly. I know that. Now all I have to do is convince my heart…
Allowing a strange dragon into my home was not my idea.
The Assembly assured me it was necessary, though. And that’s how I ended up with him.
Ollie Shaw is clumsy. Unfairly hot. He stumbles through my life leaving a trail of chaos and sunny charm in his wake.
And I hoard every moment with him like he’s my greatest treasure.
But with an entire dragon territory to rule, bills to pay, and treachery brewing in my family, I can’t afford to be distracted by Ollie’s copper-gilded beauty and boundless enthusiasm.
I especially can’t give in to my dragon’s primal urge to claim him.
Because loving him could cost me everything I’ve fought so hard to protect. And that would eventually come back to bite us both—with dragon’s teeth…
Dragon’s Folly, Book 3 in the Wings over Albion series, is a sweet and spicy, grumpy/sunshine, forced proximity paranormal m/m romance.
