Publisher's Summary

You are never too old for love! Pearl is the grandmother most people want to hide. There is one dragon-shifting warrior who is happy to kidnap her. Internationally acclaimed author S. E. Smith presents another scorching hot story sure to become one of your favorites!

Asim Kemark has lived a long, lonely life. It is his pledge to his former king and to Mandra Reykill that keeps him, his dragon, and his symbiot from going mad. He has given up on finding his true mate and devotes himself to caring for the wide assortment of creatures on Mandra and Ariel's mountain retreat. The last thing he expects to happen when he visits the palace is to lose control of his dragon and his symbiot after they sense their true mate. Before he knows it, he has kidnapped her!

Pearl St. Claire is enjoying a new adventure - learning to live on an alien planet. As a mature woman in her 60s, she thought she had experienced just about everything life could throw at her - only to discover she hasn't really experienced anything yet! She is both amused and exasperated when one of the dragon-shifting aliens kidnaps her, believing she is his true mate.

Life is no longer boring or lonely as Asim courts the enchanting and spirited human woman, but he isn't the only one who has noticed Pearl or the unusual animals under his care. When poachers attack, determined to steal the exotic creatures under his protection - including Pearl and a new clutch of alien eggs from Earth - he will do everything he can to protect them. Can one dragon keep the most precious creatures under his care safe, or will he lose the biggest battle of his life?

Pearl and Asim’s story

It appears that this story starts three years after the Easter Asim finds his mate Pearl, then he provides the story for that experience for the benefit of the Dragon Twins.
Pearl is recruited to teach Barack and Brogan basic skills for survival on Earth as Aikaterina is giving the Twin Dragons a second chance at life, and to find their mate.
Pearl’s rules are hilarious, heartbreaking, and useful.
Jaguin and his mate Sara were tasked by Aikaterina to oversee and assist them, with help from Adalard Ha’darra, prince of the Curizan. I strongly recommend reading Twin Dragons and Pearl’s Dragon before Twin Dragons’ Destiny.
Only negative for me is I don’t much care for stories that jump back and forth from present to past to present...
Brenin is truly the voice for this series.

Additional Note: I really like the artwork for this book with a more mature woman, though I doubt she is quite Pearl’s age of 60. Kudos!

Pearl is the greatest!

I have to admit this was really good I wish it could have been longer but it was really good.

An Older True Mate Story

Now as someone older I believe Peal’s voice sounds like an old granny...grandparents aren’t always old sounding or looking...so i think the Pearl on the cover is good! Pearl is the grandmother who raised two of the women who became mates to two princes. She owns a bar on earth, raised her granddaughters and wears leather and boots!
Assrie has nearly come to the end of his ability to live without a mate when Pearl enters his life.
What is fun is as older mates they don’t play all the games or angst over decisions as they have lived life.
Fun listen with the fantastic narrator!

pearls speech

I am a 67 year old woman and I don't speak like a 90 year old. this makes it difficult to listen to.

Love it!

Pearl is great! Another awesome book in this series. It may have started out as dragon lords, but had evolved in to a huge family.

Quick Listen

I noticed Pearl had a story and I almost lost it. Choosing Riley is literally one of my most favorite books. I loved Vox and Riley. Both characters were hilarious. I was literally laughing out loud when the story mentioned Vox's reaction when Pearl was kidnapped. I was sad that the story was so short but loved it.

it was a nice short story.

now I have to read the rest of the series! it was a good recommendation.

Unexpectedly very good!!!

I was reluctant to purchase this audiobook because I didn't really like Pearl. But I am glad I did. It was amazing. Definitely a re-read.

Loved it!

As I was listening to the last bit of this book, I could not help laughing out loud. The way S. E. Smith writes the dragon-speak and the way David Brenin performs the different dragons is hilarious! This series of books has it all and I can't wait to see what's next.

Pearl is awdome!

I was dying laughing the whole way through. I love how all the different series mesh together. I hope pearl and cara and riley get to do some crazy stuff.
