This could easily have been a full book with 200+ pages. It could have left room for a lot more character development and better story-telling. Instead, I found myself hating that it was novella length. Because not only was I not able to connect with the characters, but I didn't find all of what happened in such a short time believable.And I have to mention this: the editing was horrible. The writing was back and forth between present tense and past tense. As an English major, I can't overlook it. Maybe I could have if I had actually liked the story. But in reality, the sophomoric writing could not be redeemed.I added a half star because the concept was cool. Dragon tattoos. Guardians bound to protect humans. Forbidden love. Dangerous and beautiful. It sounds so good, right? Sadly, I was wrong. Even the concept and idea of these dragon guardians could have been played out better.I think I would have liked this book more had it been a full length novel. Because, to me, so much went on that it just became a mess. A mess that I had a hard time liking. I was looking forward to this little 'introduction' into the story. But with all that was going on, it was hard to find anything to love about it.
