How to Drive a Dragon Crazy (Dragon Kin series Book 6)

About this book
Sanity is overrated in this “captivating, funny, exciting” fantasy adventure from the New York Times bestselling author of the Scarred Earth Saga (Smexy Books).
Some things never go away, like vile enemies, bad ale, and annoying kin. But I thought I was finished with the one dragon I’d have done anything for: Éibhear the Blue, a big, gorgeous, blue-haired beast who thinks the world belongs to him. The world and, apparently, me.
So if Éibhear wants to play the caring hero and travel into the most forsaken of Gods forsaken lands to protect the one woman who doesn’t need it—namely me—I’ll let him. Because while I’m trying to fulfill a ridiculous quest for a pushy god, I’m going to draw this overconfident warlord much too close, rekindle his fires, and enjoy every minute of his delicious defeat . . .

I'm a big fan of the Dragon Kin series but this was just magnificent. OMG did I love this book! *rubbing my hands in glee* I mean I'm not a fast reader but I became totally obsessed with this and who wouldn't...it has dragons! I had been waiting...not so patiently...to finally read Iseabail \"Izzy\" the Dangerous and Éibhear the Blue/Contemptible's story. Now the problem with a series that goes on more than 3-4 episodes is that you get to know the characters more indepth and pine for particular...

Finally, it's time for Izzy and Éibhear to tell their story.. It has been a book GA Aiken (author Shelly Laurenston's alter ego) has been building up to since almost the very beginning of her Dragon Kin Series.. These two were meant to be and only two such insane individuals could have waited this long to make it work. Isobael one of the two perfect PERFECT daughters of Talaith, the Nolwen Witch and Briec the mighty.. at least that what Briec will tell you. Raised in secret, used as a tool to...

4-4.5 stars This was a really good story and addition to the series. TBH, with the way things had been in previous books and the way Éibhear acted in the beginning of this book, I thought he was going to ruin the book for me because he pissed me off enough that all I wanted to do was slap him. Thankfully, Éibhear got a clue and stopped acting like a complete prat after a bit and then I really enjoyed the story. Izzy is the daughter of Talaith (a MC from book #2, About a Dragon). Izzy is also a...

I couldn't wait for the book that would bring Eibhear and Isabail's story together and here it is. It may not be one of the most romantic of the series but their story was more about growing into their relationship than the actual romance of it. I liked that the story didn't focus on the sexual tension and sexual nature of their relationship but it brought a different dimension to the series where sex was a big focus. I really enjoyed the grown up Eibhear and Izzy and their family dynamics. The...

I also waited a long time for Izzy and Eibhear's story. As I waited, I felt like I was watching an oncoming train approach a car stalled on the railroad tracks. I was convinced that Mz. Aiken had painted herself into a corner with these two characters. In What a Dragon Should Know and Last Dragon Standing, Izzy and Eibhear stupidly inflicted wounds on each other that would destroy virtually any relationship. The next two books seemed to confirm that as much as I truly liked Izzy and Eibhear...
