Review: Needs to be read after The Legend of the Werewolf then it will make perfect sense.

So happy that Westley and Chris got their own story! I never would have pegged a wolf and a dragon as a good couple. However these two characters are perfect for each other. The Dragon And The Wolf starts out fairly exciting as Chris swoops in and rescues Westley from the Shepards. (Finally an introduction to what/who they are). But that’s not what this story is about. It’s more of how a growing attraction between two souls builds. As in any relationship, everything is exciting then in the beginning, but then seeing the attraction build and what sacrifices one is willing to make for each other. *SIGH* I do so love how their story played out. Okay, this book was short however, if you have a chance to read The Legend of the Werewolf, then this book will make perfect sense. If not, the ending will feel rather abrupt.I have one problem and it lays within the blurb and the title. The blurb suggests reading The Dragon And The Wolf before reading The Legend of the Werewolf which would place this novella at volume 1.5 and not the 2.5 that is stated in the title. I read the books in reverse order meaning I read Legend of before the Dragon And. After much deliberation, I feel the order I read them in is the way they should be read. As much as I think it may have been handy know these characters in advance, I think there was enough info in this book to spoil the next if read in the wrong order.So I am close to finishing the series and I have really enjoyed it. Frankly, it’s a nice change from all the heavy smut I have been reading lately. At this point I can now safely say I feel only the first title in the series can be read as a stand-alone. Books 1.5/2.5 and 2 are tied to each other and NEED to be read in conjunction with each other. However, if you remember my comments from the order of reading, I do not suggest reading the titles out of order. Things in the Night series is now happily residing on my recommended reading list.I received this book from JeepDiva for the express purposes of an honest review. The opinions and rating of this review are solely mine and in no way was I compensated.Stars– 3.5, Flames – 2.5
