I love the beginning of this book. Myrna is an interesting character; she is intelligent and ambitious, but because of a mistake she has done a years ago, she can't work any more as an ambassador between dragons and humans and is forced to play secretary to the incompetent chief of her department while hoping to have an opportunity to prove herself again. given all the crap and humiliation she has to go through, I would have resigned from the job a long time ago in her place... And I really don't understand why she is covering so much for her boss; in her place, I would have denounced him for the incompetent he is a long time ago too. Not only is he incompetent and hate dragons, but he also sabotages her work with his idiocy and then take full credit for her success while publicly humiliating her. Thankfully, after the first chapters the truth behind Myrna mistake is established and she is given another chance. 
 The whole building surrounding the dragons, their relationship with humans and Mirna's job was really interesting. I like how they have developed their society and now rule both themselves and the humans. The role of ambassador play by the dragonspeaker like Myrna is also original and fascinating. In addition, I was also really interested with the plot - Myrna has to go to China to negotiate with the local dragons on behalf of the dragon lord of her city in order to save a capture scout team. 
 However, I didn't particularly like Trian, the hero. In the past they used to date, but one day he suddenly disappeared with a confidential file, destroying Myrna's carrier. Since she has no way of contacting him, she conclude that they have broken up... He was also obviously lying to her during the whole time. When they meet again, Myrna is angry, yet I find that she forgives him to easily and to quickly. He has extenuating circumstances for stealing the file, but he didn't have to break their relationship and he was still lying to her when she forgave him. Of course, other readers will probably have a different opinion about that according to their own preferences. 
 During the important negotiation that Myrna had to lead, some members of her team were obviously playing a double game, lying to her and putting all of them in danger with their actions. I was a bit annoyed that Myrna didn't find the time to think about it and come to the obvious conclusion because of all that was going around. Because of the that, the last twists are easily predictable for the reader and I didn't appreciate the end of the book as much as the first part. 
 This book was interesting, I really like some elements (Mirna's character, the dragons and their relationship with the humans) but I was a bit disappointed with the ending. I will read the next books in the series to see how the author develops her world and I would recommend this book to fans of urban fantasy with dragons (this is not really a paranormal romance despite sharing several characteristic with the genre, as the romance isn't really the focus of this book).
