Summary
Sometimes， survival depends on not being seen。
I should know。 That’s the only way I’ve survived。 Getting accepted into a prestigious university was my chance at freedom; to escape and live without fear and resentment。
And with no emotional attachments--or at least that was the plan。
Until I see Egan。
He’s sexy， mysterious， and has muscles in all the right places。 He invokes feelings I don’t want or understand。
The more he shows up， the harder of a time I have remembering why staying away from him was a good idea。 But he brings deep， dark secrets that alter my entire world。
Monsters exist。 Witches cast spells。 And animals may be human after all。
I either embrace fate and enter a strange new world full of risks like never before or walk away。
Maybe， I'm destined for heartache because sometimes， love isn't worth what it costs to fall。
If you can't get enough of books by Patricia Briggs， Ilona Andrews， K。F。 Breene， Kelly St。 Claire， Shannon Mayer， Leia Stone， and Jaymin Eve， then you'll love this paranormal romance。

We're returning to the Academy！ Hurray！ Jade is a little different from some of Jen Grey's other characters and for that I'm grateful。 It makes her more believable in my opinion。 she likes to sit on the fence though which I'm sure won't lead to trouble any time soon。。。。。。。 Dragon Mate has a nice arc through the whole book that's relatively steady for a change and will lend itself to the start of an excellent trilogy。。。。 or more if that is the desire later。 I can't wait to read the next one。 We're returning to the Academy！ Hurray！ Jade is a little different from some of Jen Grey's other characters and for that I'm grateful。 It makes her more believable in my opinion。 she likes to sit on the fence though which I'm sure won't lead to trouble any time soon。。。。。。。 Dragon Mate has a nice arc through the whole book that's relatively steady for a change and will lend itself to the start of an excellent trilogy。。。。 or more if that is the desire later。 I can't wait to read the next one。 。。。more

I am so excited for Egan's story！！！ I have been wanting to learn more about our mystery dragon since we first met him。 And we finally do。 Jade is a girl who just wants to go under the radar and blend into the woodwork。。。。 that is until she sees our boy Egan， and then well， sparks fly。 This poor girl has not had the easiest life， and trust doesn't come easy。 And she knows something is different about Egan and company。 Is she willing to take a chance？I can't wait to read more I am so excited for Egan's story！！！ I have been wanting to learn more about our mystery dragon since we first met him。 And we finally do。 Jade is a girl who just wants to go under the radar and blend into the woodwork。。。。 that is until she sees our boy Egan， and then well， sparks fly。 This poor girl has not had the easiest life， and trust doesn't come easy。 And she knows something is different about Egan and company。 Is she willing to take a chance？I can't wait to read more 。。。more

⭐⭐⭐⭐/5t “There’s something about you。 Something I can’t and don’t want to shake。” WARNING！！！ This is Book 1 in The Hidden King Trilogy， and it does end on a cliffhanger！tJade learned a long time ago that sometimes， survival meant doing everything to stay unseen。 Getting accepted to the prestigious school， Kortright University， meant she finally had a chance to escape the hell she called life。 Her plan was to escape and live without fear， resentment， or any emotional connections。 At least that ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5t “There’s something about you。 Something I can’t and don’t want to shake。” WARNING！！！ This is Book 1 in The Hidden King Trilogy， and it does end on a cliffhanger！tJade learned a long time ago that sometimes， survival meant doing everything to stay unseen。 Getting accepted to the prestigious school， Kortright University， meant she finally had a chance to escape the hell she called life。 Her plan was to escape and live without fear， resentment， or any emotional connections。 At least that was the plan。 Until she meets Egan。 He’s sexy， mysterious， covered in muscles， and seems way too good to be true。 He invokes feelings Jade does want or understand， but the more he shows up， the harder it gets for her to remember why she needs to stay away。 But he has dark secrets， secrets that could alter her entire world。 Finding out the monsters from your childhood nightmares are real would be a hard pill for anyone to swallow。 But finding out that you are destined to be with one， that’s a whole different story。 Jade has to decide if she is willing to risk everything she thought she knew， all for the chance at love。 Or if the chance at heartache is enough to make her run scared。 “I refused to appear weak in front of anyone。 Showing weakness made you vulnerable， and when you were vulnerable， people took advantage of you。” I was pleasantly surprised to find out that we would get a series dedicated to our Dragon friend from The Wolf Born Trilogy。 Egan was probably one of my favorite guys from that series， so getting to read his story is definitely exciting。 Can I just start by saying that I love the chemistry between Jade and Egan。 They are just such a cute coupling。 I found Jade to be really easy to connect with， as I am also an extremely introverted， awkward person😂。 I also loved how the “gang” welcomed Jade with open arms， even though she did push them away at first。 The banter， as always in Jen’s books， had me dying of laughter。 I think the only thing that would have made this book even better would be having a few chapters with Egan POV。 I feel like this book was mostly just showing Jades time navigating Kortright。 From the first chapter I was hooked and didn’t want to put this book down。 This was a great start to what I'm sure will be a fantastic new Trilogy。 If you loved Egan in The Wolf Born Trilogy， you should definitely check this book out， but beware the cliffhanger！！！ “I was done being the victim and letting others make the rules。” I received this as a free ARC copy from the author in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

Jen has taken us back to Kortright University with her first book in the Hidden King series。 Dragon Mate centers on Jade as she struggles to overcome her past， reach for her future， and meets a few familiar faces along the way。 I will admit Jade isn't my favorite out of all of Jen's main female characters。 Jade is human and while she knows martial arts and is a strong fighter she also has been abused for years both physically and emotionally by her Aunt while her mother sits on the sidelines。 Th Jen has taken us back to Kortright University with her first book in the Hidden King series。 Dragon Mate centers on Jade as she struggles to overcome her past， reach for her future， and meets a few familiar faces along the way。 I will admit Jade isn't my favorite out of all of Jen's main female characters。 Jade is human and while she knows martial arts and is a strong fighter she also has been abused for years both physically and emotionally by her Aunt while her mother sits on the sidelines。 This， of course， has caused some trauma， she's quick to anger， doesn't communicate well， mistrusts others， and has a lack of confidence among other issues。 However， I liked that she got the courage to leave and wants to stand on her own while creating a better future for herself。 The problem is she's holding herself back， she wasn't really willing to open up to anyone even when they kept trying。 Her issues had made her wish-washy with her actions and she was a little annoying but she got better towards the end。 By the end of the book， Jade had turned a corner for me。 If Kortright sounds familiar it's because it's the college that Sadie and the gang from Jen's Wolf Born trilogy attended， however， this time the story centers more on my favorite dragon， Egan who happens to be Jade's Mate。 Some really interesting mythology is revealed about dragon shifters and I loved seeing Egan again， I truly loved him the best out of all the guys in Wolf Born and I'm so happy he got his own series and that I get to see more of his personality。 Egan is just as gentlemanly， kind， and caring as he was before but now there is a nervousness， and a lack of confidence but there is also attentiveness， possessiveness， and passion。 I liked seeing these new layers of Egan and hope to learn more。 Through all the relationship drama that both he and Jade had， Sadie and everyone else from their group are very much present in the story， trying to help。 I loved how involved they are but as supporting characters， seeing them again， seeing their lives after the previous events， and seeing them from another person's perspective was great。 Sadie is still kind， the group is closer than ever， and Roxy is still Roxy。 The dynamics of the group are even more interesting when Jade is added to the picture。 Dragon Mate was very entertaining if not frustrating at times （looking at Jade）。 It was interesting seeing a main character that wasn't an alpha type， who was just trying to hold her life together， and seeing a love interest that I already know go into a new relationship。 I have some serious questions about Jade's family history， it may be nothing but more than one thing is off there。 Then there is the mystery surrounding the dragon shifters， I got just a taste of what Egan has been hiding and I'm dying for more。 Hidden Mate had a dramatic ending and I have a feeling the extra drama will continue in the next book Dragon Heir。 。。。more

Again Jen blew my mind！ I absolutely loved it！ Everything that happened to Jade while she grew up made her an amazing mate for Egan。 She is strong and feisty。 And Egan， ever the gentleman， wasn't sure how to handle her at first but learned how she is。 And the ending， just had you begging for more。 I can not wait for the next one！ Again Jen blew my mind！ I absolutely loved it！ Everything that happened to Jade while she grew up made her an amazing mate for Egan。 She is strong and feisty。 And Egan， ever the gentleman， wasn't sure how to handle her at first but learned how she is。 And the ending， just had you begging for more。 I can not wait for the next one！ 。。。more

This has to be my favorite Jen L Grey book to date， and that's saying alot since I love all her books！！ This series started off so strong。 With characters we already know and love， it was so easy to just jump right back into the world and fall in love all over again。 The story and character development is phenomenal。 The ending left out on one heck of a cliffhanger and I cannot wait to see what comes next！ This has to be my favorite Jen L Grey book to date， and that's saying alot since I love all her books！！ This series started off so strong。 With characters we already know and love， it was so easy to just jump right back into the world and fall in love all over again。 The story and character development is phenomenal。 The ending left out on one heck of a cliffhanger and I cannot wait to see what comes next！ 。。。more

3。5⭐️‘Dragon Mate’ is book one in Jen L。 Grey’s Hidden King series。 This series is a sister series to The Wolf Born Trilogy。 This series follows Egan and Jade， it’s recommended that TWBT be read prior to get to know the group characters and the history between them better， although not necessary。Jade was hoping that by attending Kortright it would be a fresh start and a way for her to find herself。 But finding out about the supernatural world was not what she expected。 I loved getting to see Ega 3。5⭐️‘Dragon Mate’ is book one in Jen L。 Grey’s Hidden King series。 This series is a sister series to The Wolf Born Trilogy。 This series follows Egan and Jade， it’s recommended that TWBT be read prior to get to know the group characters and the history between them better， although not necessary。Jade was hoping that by attending Kortright it would be a fresh start and a way for her to find herself。 But finding out about the supernatural world was not what she expected。 I loved getting to see Egan， Sadie， Donovan， Axle， Roxy， Lillith and Katherine again。 I feel as if I am part of this weird and wacky pack。 I do have to say I’m not really a fan of Jades character。 I’m hoping that she will grow on me as she comes to terms with what her life is now going to be。 But at the moment she just irks me with her attitude。 I do feel that as her and Egan get closer and she sees that the rest of the group are life she will open up more。 Now I’m not saying Jade is a horrible person she is just a little shut off and doesn’t trust easily。 Which can be understandable with her history。 Once again the constant banter and hilarious commentary from our favourite red head wolf and sarcastic Vampire make the most inappropriate times fun。Once again the group pull together to help look after the humans and prove that blood doesn’t make you family， but the trust and loyalty does。 Action packed with twists and turns that will keep you engaged。 Looking forward to see how things are going to turn out after that ending。 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 Well I didn’t expect those two assholes too be working together honestly。 That ending was so screwed up。 I need book two ASAP 。 I’m convinced her psycho aunt has something to do with all this but who knows。 She’s a psycho anyways 。 I don’t like her weak willed mother either parents are supposed to protect their children point blank。

Hold on to your pants！ The gang just got out of one scrape and have fallen into another！ This time Egan finds his mate Jade and it is a rollicking good time。 Watch out for the cliff at the end at a crucial moment。 The gang now has to protect the dragons as they are the target now。 They will never get thru school if this keeps up。 I love Jen’s stories they keep you entertained and guessing what will happen next。

I've been waiting for Egan's story and this didn't disappoint。 Story seemed to focus more on Jade and her adapting to living on campus and getting to know people than the deaths of the girls and mysterious bird。 Fast paced story。 All of the gang are included in this one。 HUGE cliffhanger。 I've been waiting for Egan's story and this didn't disappoint。 Story seemed to focus more on Jade and her adapting to living on campus and getting to know people than the deaths of the girls and mysterious bird。 Fast paced story。 All of the gang are included in this one。 HUGE cliffhanger。 。。。more
