Summary

In my world, dragon shifters rule。 Dragon shifters are always royals。 They’re always male。 They’re always assholes。

An orphaned servant like me? Everyone assumes on first shift, I’ll turn into a squirrel。

Instead, I grow wings。 Breathe fire。 Throw the world into chaos。

No one wants a girl in the Royal Dragon Guard。 So I’m disguised as a man and sent off to military training。

The Dragon Royals are not a welcoming bunch。 These princely scions of the four ruling families have been training to fight the plague-crazed Scourge since they were toddlers。 Every girl in the city dreams of winning the heart of one of the dragon nobles, but they only care about each other。

Jaik, the cold-hearted hero who never smiles and never falters。 Arren, who kills without mercy and guards his friends fiercely。 Lynx and Branick, the twin spymasters with deadly swords。 Talisyn, with the beautiful cruel mouth and endless bravery。

By night, I’m the servant they flirt with。 I’m the one stealing Jaik’s heart and kissing Talisyn and antagonizing Arren。 All the while, Branick and Lynx fret that I’m a spy, sent to destroy the Royals。

By day, I’m Lucien Finn, the man they despise and the dragon shifter they have to fight alongside。

These royals are determined to make me fall, and the princes play dirty。 Can I ignore the pull they have on my heart and kick them off their thrones?

Or will they break the maid。。。 or kill the man? What will it do to us all when they finally discover the truth about who I truly am?

If cocky dragon shifters, steamy scenes, and snarky heroines who refuse to choose anything less than ALL their heart's desires offend。。。then back away。 Otherwise, scroll up and dive into the adventure alongside Honor。

Awesme story!This was a super fun book to read。 I loved the banter between Honor and the guys。 She was quick witted and never backed down from a challenge。 Honor was strong without being obnoxious about it。 The guyswereall interesting and unique。 The plot was captivating and original。 I love the girl pretending to be a guy trope too。 I wish more books had this storyline。 May Dawson is an excellent writer and I can't wait to read book 2!

May Dawson is quickly becoming a favorite author of mine。 Her characters are relatable and well developed。 And her world building is top notch。 But her writing style and story telling is so fantastic and fresh。 I love the way she develops the story and relationships between her characters。 This is one of my first Dragon romance novels and I really am enjoying it! Honor is A great character and the Dragon Royals are hopefully going to be better as we get to know them better。 I love that she is pr May Dawson is quickly becoming a favorite author of mine。 Her characters are relatable and well developed。 And her world building is top notch。 But her writing style and story telling is so fantastic and fresh。 I love the way she develops the story and relationships between her characters。 This is one of my first Dragon romance novels and I really am enjoying it! Honor is A great character and the Dragon Royals are hopefully going to be better as we get to know them better。 I love that she is protective of her sister Hanna。。。it's a little bit like a Cinderella story。。but not really。。。lol Talisyn is my Favorite Royal。。but who wouldn't like him。 Then I think that Lynx maybe next。。。lol I like a nerdy guy。 And then Jaik。。。but he needs to chill out a bit。。。Branok I hope gets over his anger issues and Arren is the strong silent one。。。 I CAN'T WAIT to read book 2!! The cliffhanger is not to bad。。。 just your typical leave you wanting more!! And I certainly do! I highly recommend this book!! 。。。more

Roxanne

Absolutely loved it。。。This is a book with a cliffhanger done right。 I fell in love with the characters, even if I wanted turn a few into eunuchs a time or two。 You hurt when they hurt, root for them when they succeed。 I abhor cliffhangers which lead the hero in imminent peril。 May ends this book perfectly with mounting problems but at a slight pause before all hell breaks loose。I love the anticipation。

OMG dragons rule the world! This story is amazing and drew me in from the very beginning。 Honor is a kick ass, strong female lead that has you rooting for her especially when we wait to see what she shifts into and what do you know it’s a dragon which apparently does not happen to females!! It’s an exciting and very entertaining read, it’s sassy and snarky, it’s got secrets and mystery, violence and passion and after that ending, well whens book two ready please??

K。 Rose

One word 。 。 。 Dragon。 Yup that pretty much does it for me, instant grab when there is a dragon involved 。 。 。 looking forward to more in the series 。 。 。 well done!

This is probably my favorite book of recent months。 The banter, the story, the firey connections and Dragons! Honor is a fiesty, quick witted maid who is always at the center of any trouble。 When she gets her shifter animal her whole life changes。 Forced to be a male by day and a maid by night, she becomes close to the dragon royals and of course, this leads her straight into trouble。 The dragon royals are also delightful characters to read, complex and multi layered。 So much fun and adventure e This is probably my favorite book of recent months。 The banter, the story, the firey connections and Dragons!

I should know better than to start a book late at night that May Dawson has been involved in…I can never put her books down! I was up until the early hours finishing this one because I needed to know what would happen next! Honor begins the story as an orphaned maid, with a love for her younger sister and sarcasm。 She longs for bigger things and better experiences, but expects her soul creature to be some kind of small prey animal, as is usually the case for all the members of lower households, I should know better than to start a book late at night that May Dawson has been involved in…I can never put her books down!

Honor begins the story as an orphaned maid, with a love for her younger sister and sarcasm。 She longs for bigger things and better experiences, but expects her soul creature to be some kind of small prey animal, as is usually the case for all the members of lower households, and she therefore expects to remain trapped in her small world trying to help her sister。 It turns out that she’s a lot bigger and scalier than expected! As a result, she’s disguised as a man and sent to the Academy to train to fight the Scourge - There’s more to it than that, but not without spoilers! I loved the male Royals (even though on a few occasions I wanted to shake them!) and I enjoyed reading Honor’s interactions with them, both as herself and as Lucien。 This is such an interesting and well written story! And that ending! What will the consequences for their actions be? What will the Elders do? I’m really hoping the Royals will be understanding of Honor’s actions if they find out her secret! Book 2 please! 。。。more

This Story drew me right in。 I loved reading about Honor。 Storyline is fantastic。 Characters were so good。 May Dawson got me hooked on the series。 I so cannot wait for book 2。 No spoilers here。 Definitely recommend reading this one。 Be prepared to be up all night because it’s that good。 Loved it!

Maria J

Every time May Dawson has a new book out, I rush to read it because she is amazing! This book did not disappoint! It’s a wonderful mix of Cinderella meets Mulan, and I am here for it!

Chantel Small

GREAT STORY Love the main character Honor。 Love her spitfire personality and her uncensored mouth。 And here overbearing dragon shifters are just hot。 Love all the curves and turns the story takes。 Keep me on the edge of my seat the whole time I read it。 Can’t wait for the next book。

This may be my new favorite May Dawson series。 The banter in this book is everything。 Please let the next book come out soon!

May Dawson has done it again。 If you like a snarky and sassy female with some hot males drawn to her, this is the book for you。 Book 1 left me praying for Book 2。 Honor is a young woman housekeeper/maid and dreams of being a warrior/fierce soul creature to fight the Scourge (monsters that kill humans/shifters)。 Currently housekeeping at the Dragon academy to support her younger sister, Honor dreams of breaking free once her sister is free of their stepmother。 Servants are typical meek and end up May Dawson has done it again。 If you like a snarky and sassy female with some hot males drawn to her, this is the book for you。 Book 1 left me praying for Book 2。 Honor is a young woman housekeeper/maid and dreams of being a warrior/fierce soul creature to fight the Scourge (monsters that kill humans/shifters)。 Currently housekeeping at the Dragon academy to support her younger sister, Honor dreams of breaking free once her sister is free of their stepmother。 Servants are typical meek and end up being squirrels or mice, but Honor's soul creature turns out to be a dragon。 Dragons are typically male, the elders ask Honor to mask herself to train with the Dragon Royals。 Forced to hide herself from her friends, the dragon royals, and even her sister。 See how she fares when she has to keep secrets to survive。 This book is an enemies to romance, and kept me engaged through the long hours of the night。 I cannot wait to see what happens in Book 2。 Ends in a cliffhanger (so be WARNED) but well worth the read! 。。。more

Wow, that was a whirlwind of a read。 This story is packed with so much action and goes off like a shot from the first chapter。 You would think a dragon academy book would be a stale trope by now, but of course May is the master of unique academy romance and interesting characters。 There is so much packed into one book, so take your time getting to know all the characters, especially the MC, Honor。 And the steam kicks off in the first few chapters so the heat level is no joke for this one。 Defini Wow, that was a whirlwind of a read。 This story is packed with so much action and goes off like a shot from the first chapter。 You would think a dragon academy book would be a stale trope by now, but of course May is the master of unique academy romance and interesting characters。 There is so much packed into one book, so take your time getting to know all the characters, especially the MC, Honor。 And the steam kicks off in the first few chapters so the heat level is no joke for this one。 Definitely reccomend, and can't wait for book 2。 。。。more

Never have I ever felt so drawn in to a story the way I have with May Dawson’s first book in the Dragon Royals series, Forbidden Honor! It was utterly captivating!

It was utterly captivating! Needless to say, May truly knows how to create a new intriguing world of mixed shifters and the questionable hierarchy involved, leaving the reader addicted right from the start。Forbidden Honor is a Cinderella meets Twelfth Night tale of a maid and her mysterious princes—the dragon royalty that rule the academy and dominate the shifter world。 While there is a very love/hate filled relationship with 3 of the 5, you can’t help but hope that May has something devious planned for them all soon。 Them along with some other very hot and intriguing male characters that also have connections with Honor, our kick ass FMC。 Honor is the perfect blend of sarcastic snark, fierce loyalty and devotion to those she loves, humorous and sassy and as stubborn as can be because she just doesn’t know when to stop—you know, everything to love in a heroine。 :) There’s also a mystery surrounding her past that draws you in and keeps you guessing throughout the story as slowly the plot reveals one mystery after another。 In a world where your shifter identity isn’t revealed until a specific time, Honor lives her whole life thinking she’s going to be something small or unimportant, like a squirrel, but little does she know that her world is about to drastically change as she’s actually something totally unexpected: a one of a kind female dragon with a hinted at mysterious prophesy that no one wants to talk about。 The ruling Elders are of course wanting nothing to do with that, and force Honor to hide what she really is—thus creating an alter male identity for her to magically hide behind and force her to keep it a secret from the Dragon princes。 Which of course leads for some very fun chaos ahead for all our characters! With intriguing characters and a storyline filled with mystery, suspense, betrayals and of course some hot and steamy sex scenes, this book is a definite must read! Grab it for yourself now—you won’t regret it! 。。。more

Holy crap that was epic! I have no idea how I am going to live without book 2。 I need to know what happens。 I NEEDS to know。 The dynamics between the royals and Honor had me on edge constantly waiting for a reveal, a slip, anything that would give the game away。 I loved it all!!!
