This is the dragon book you didn't know you needed - and where you want to put both humans and dragons into your pocket to keep them safe. The worldbuilding with magic sourced from dragon bonds and metal is so clever, and the main rivals-to-lovers couple is just adorable. I loved the idea of Dragon Vets, the humor, and the way the romance balanced perfectly with the action and intrigue. Cozy and clever, fierce and tender, this is a gem of a read. It has dual POV, and oh how much this added to the story. Seeing everything unfold from both Farren's and James' perspective, and how they are struggling to navigate everything, is just perfect. And adored the romance so much. The audiobook is a perfect example of how two narrators bring the dual POV to life. I enjoyed listening to their angst, yearning and tenderness so much. I'd strongly advise to choose the audiobook for this, if reading with your ears is something you enjoy. 4.5/5 stars. Thank you to @NetGalley and @macmillan.audio for the eARC! #WhenDealingWithDragons #MacAudio2026 #Bookstagram #NetGalley
