Review: Ridiculous

This story was just ridiculous.  Rajah and Larkspur are completely out-of-place in this story - they speak like modern people (Larkspur likes to call a certain part of Rajah's body "yummy" frequently) and they're both supposed to be virgins but exhibit an amazing grasp of the mechanics and techniques of sex.  It keeps the reader from getting involved in the story at all - it's like reading an erotic story set in modern times that has somehow been gene-spliced with a story about a dragon and his human mate - and neither story benefits from the incongruity.Lark is also an annoying character.  She and her father were split up by pirates, she has no idea where he is, and she is kidnapped by a dragon.  She resists for about two minutes before deciding to spend the rest of her life with him.  I couldn't have much respect for somebody who didn't even care to find out how her father was or letting him know that she was okay.  And she's so demanding . . . "do me this way," "do me that way," "do me this way."  Rajah was talking about spending the next three hundred years with her . . . I give him a week and a half before he drops her back into the ocean, completely fed-up with her.
