"The foundation of this story reminded me of Red by S. J. Sanders in that there is a hive-type relationship looking for a queen. This being a more pg-13 version of course. And like always I go straight for the bad boy with a tortured past Ori. Why? Maybe I'm a masochist at heart.<br/><br/>My biggest problem with the characters and even the story was that everything was too perfect. Noelle is from royalty and descendent of the original wolves and dragons. Her soon-to-be dragons are descendants of the original dragons and also one of the dude's father is the Chief himself. Most of the main characters are unique with one-of-a-kind abilities. Even the island and the school are gorgeous beyond belief. <br/><br/>So this made it very hard to connect with the world. Nothing was relatable. Still, it was a cute and easy story to follow. Each boy brought a different dynamic and the powerplay between them and Noelle was funny."
