Synopsis:
Jaguar is one of the finest trackers on Valdier, where females are few and true mates almost non-existent. He has never been successful at finding his true mate, and that failure is eating away at him and his dragon. Even his symbiot is feeling the strain as the centuries crawl by with no end to the emptiness gnawing away at them. But hope flares with the discovery of a species that is compatible with their own.

Jaguin is rewarded for his help in tracking one of the Lord’s stubborn females with the promise of a chance to find his own true mate on the planet called Earth.

Sara Wilson is a botanist working with Columbiana University. Her love for plants and their potential for medicinal uses consume her life. She feels confident she is on the verge of a breakthrough when she is kidnapped by a cartel boss with revenge on his mind — a revenge that not only comes close to taking her life but will change it forever.

After a fruitless search for his mate, Jaguin accepts one last assignment to guard Lord Creon’s mate, Carmen, during a mission to seek justice against the man who brutally murder her husband back on Earth. Instead, he finds his true mate in the man’s cruel clutches, barely clinging to life. His only thought is to spirit her away, where he and his symbiot can heal her and his dragon can claim her.

The scars left during her captivity run deep inside Sara as she struggles to come to terms with her new life. She is no longer on Earth, but the fear and terror still haunt her. She needs time to discover who she is again and whether this is a life she can accept.

Can Jaguin’s love heal the scars on the inside, or will his true mate believe she has traded one monster for another?

Review What readers are saying about Jaguin’s Love!”S.E. Smith done it again, another brilliant story to add to her Dragons of Valdier series. I’ve been waiting for each new book to release with about the same amount of patience as a newly mated dragon.””The humour and emotion that S.E. Smith weaves into her stories make them a must read and Jaguin’s Love is a story that incorporates both of these and so much more.””You literally feel the sadness, anger, hopelessness and despair faced by our couple as you delve into their story, but then your heart lifts as these emotions are defeated by the sheer force of will, strength, heart and love with each page read.””Jaguin and Sara are faced with almost insurmountable odds but in their journey towards each other, find something much more rare and precious. Their story will have you run the full gauntlet of emotions as they face demons of the past to become the other half to each other’s soul.””Just like opening one’s heart is another lesson that must be learned, so a woman can move forward towards a future full of happiness and a love that will last forever.””Keep those great stories coming, S.E. Smith! I for one know, I want to see a lot more of these very special characters, their crazy antics and adventures.””Another wonderful book in the Dragon Lords of Valdier series. I love this series because each book can be read as a stand-alone story, with a new couple and a HEA.

I cannot wait for the next Dragon Lords of Valdier book.””I have been caught in this series from the first book and now I am at book 8. How is that possible? Must be the fine writing/storytelling.””The characters are so well drawn with their dialogue, their actions, and their stream of consciousness. No unnecessary words. No long-drawn out descriptions.””Ms. S.E. Smith has this whole relationship thing down. The book is about their story, and as in her other novels, that is enough. I am entertained on many levels — sci-fi, good overcoming evil, finding one’s strengths, developing ongoing relationships — and I could go on.”When a story touches a reader’s heart, they tell you…She’s done it again, another brilliant story to add to her Dragons of Valdier series. I’ve been waiting for each new book to release with about the same amount of patience as a newly mated dragon. The humour and emotion that S.E. Smith weaves into her stories make them a must read and Jaguin’s Love is a story that incorporates both of these and so much more. You literally feel the sadness, anger, hopelessness and despair faced by our couple as you delve into their story, but then your heart lifts as these emotions are defeated by the sheer force of will, strength, heart and love with each page read. Jaguin and Sara are faced with almost insurmountable odds but in their journey towards each other, find something much more rare and precious. Their story will have you run the full gauntlet of emotions as they face demons of the past to become the other half to each other’s soul. Patience is a virtue that even a stubborn dragon can learn when needed. Just like opening one’s heart is another lesson that must be learned, so a woman can move forward towards a future full of happiness and a love that will last forever.

He could see the thick bands of gold on her neck and wrists. His symbiot sat on the far side of the bed, its’ head resting on the pristine white sheets. Small threads of gold wove outward, replacing the narrow ribbons still moving over her body.”It is a good thing you are her mate,” Tantor replied in a quiet voice, walking past the two beds toward the office area to the left. “She would not have survived if not for your symbiot’s ability to heal her. Our medical advancements are far greater than most, but nothing can heal the body the way a symbiot can.” From the Back Cover “I will wait however long it takes,” Jaguin replied, feeling the rightness of his words.

⭐ Title: Jaguin’s LoveSeries: Dragon Lords of ValdierAuthor: S.E. SmithDesignation: Book Eight of Series, Full-Length(181 Pages) Can Be Read As Standalone Sci-Fi/Paranormal Romance, NO CliffhangerReading Platform: Kindle EditionMy Rating: Five Delightfully Entertaining Stars*****I adore action/adventure, love science fiction, obsessed with anything paranormal, totally smitten with sexy aliens, and completely addicted to romance but give me the perfect combination of them all and I’m in heaven! And that’s exactly what S.E. Smith has delivered to her readers with Jaguin’s Love, the riveting eighth release in her bestselling Dragon Lords of Valdier Series. Be still my heart! I’ve been a diehard S.E. Smith fan for several years and have read almost her entire library of published work but I must admit, The Dragon Lords of Valdier is, without a doubt, my favorite of all her series. I anxiously await each new release and Smith never disappoints. Smith is a remarkably gifted storyteller who excels at creating highly imaginative and vividly depicted worlds populated with fascinating, diverse and unique characters who literally explode from the pages, capture your imagination, tug on your heartstrings and completely steal your heart. I always know I’m guaranteed a wondrous, mind-blowing adventure before I ever read the first line and Jaguin’s Love was no exception. The narrative was fast-paced, well-crafted, well-edited and beautifully written in the third person with primary his and her perspectives from the two protagonists. As in many of the books of this series, we also see an occasional peek into the thoughts of the Goddess Aikaterina which I find truly fascinating since it’s actually her character who sets the stage for many of the stories. She may not be the entity actually controlling the outcome of fate but she is responsible for setting into motion many of the events that will help determine the future of the characters in these stories. I identify her as a sort of guardian angel for all the species of the galaxy who holds a special affection for the Valdier because they once saved her life. It’s truly unique and quite intriguing. The dialogue was smart, seductive, well-executed, at times laugh-out-loud funny, and flowed effortlessly. But without a doubt, my favorite component of every Smith book is the cast of captivating, engaging and unconventional characters. They are the heart and soul of every story. Who doesn’t love sexy dragon-shifters, right? But these dragon-shifters are not your ordinary, run-of-the-mill shifters! They’re sexy alien warriors made up of three separate but connected entities, their two-legged human-like man form, their shifted dragon alter personas and their golden symbiots which are gifted to each warrior at birth by the Goddess. The symbiots usually take the shape of some type of animal but are also worn for protection, and can change into any form, both animate and inanimate, and can be anything from armor, to weapons, to jewelry, and even a spaceship! Oh my! Although they are connected, physically as well as mentally, each has its own individual characteristics and voice. And they couldn’t be more different…and at times, absolutely hilarious. These dragons are so darn cute and the conversations they have with their two-legged alters are hysterical. The entire concept is fascinating, ingenious and completely entertaining. But where the problem lies is all three entities must agree upon a single female in order for her to be accepted as their true mate, making the choice seem more a curse than a blessing, and made all the more difficult by the shortage of eligible females. Oh my! I was immediately drawn into the story by the two protagonists, beautiful human botanist Sara Wilson, and brave Valdier dragon-shifter warrior Jaguin. I fell in love with Jaguin and Sara when they were originally introduced in an earlier book. These two characters captured my imagination as well as my heart, and I could hardly wait to read their story. In reading several of the reviews for this book, I noticed several were critical of this story with the main reason being the lack of a tangible villain and a lot of shootem’ up action. They felt something was missing. They couldn’t have been more wrong. There was absolutely nothing redundant or generic about this story. The true villain in this story was PTSD, Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome, and it’s so much more frightening than any flesh and blood bad guy. It leaves hopelessness, despair, and destruction in the lives of those it affects beyond the worst nightmares imaginable. Obviously, some readers missed the point of this story completely. The true meaning was not lost on me since I am also one of the victims claimed by this disorder and suffered for many years. Possibly, that’s the reason I recognized the true villain of this story. I implore you; please don’t allow a few negative reviews to influence you into not reading this book. You will have missed an emotionally moving story about a young woman who experienced a neglected childhood, felt unloved and unwanted, and her struggle to survive, move forward in life and find love. But in order to slay her personal demons, she must overcome the aftereffects of a horrific ordeal while conquering the most frightening villains of all… the ones who appear in our minds and haunt not only our waking thoughts, but also our dreams. Did I like this book? No, I LOVED it! Would I recommend it? You bet and I am but only for adult readers since it does contain some steamy, dreamy love scenes. Although this book can be read as a standalone, I highly recommend reading all the books of the series in sequence to enrich the overall experience. The author does a great job of giving ample backstory but there are some parts of the story where the reader may feel like they have missed key elements of the storyline if they haven’t read the previous books. Will I read this author again? Absolutely! Just as soon as she releases her next book! Was I entertained? Completely! I was glued to my chair, white knuckling my ereader, my heart fluttering wildly in my chest with the pages flying as quickly as the time! I laughed, I cried, and my heart broke into pieces, but by the end, I was happy, satisfied and well entertained! I loved it! If you’re looking for a captivating sci-fi romp filled to the brim with sexy aliens, heart-pounding adventure, heartbreaking angst, fiery passion, heartwarming romance, steamy sex, and the indomitable promise of hope, then you will, most assuredly, enjoy Jaguin’s Love. Fabulous entertainment and an awesome read!Like many of his brethern, Valdier warrior Jaguin had all but given up hope of ever finding his true mate. Unmated females on Valdier had grown fewer and fewer over the centuries. It had become nearly impossible for a Valdier warrior to find their one true mate, leaving them with feelings of great despair, all the while knowing that without a true mate, their dragons would eventually drive them mad. Jaguin understood this hopelessness all too well as evidenced by the increasing difficulty he was experiencing in controlling his dragon. He would soon have to admit to the elders his time had come to move on to the next life… before he went mad and hurt someone. Jaguin was known as a great warrior on Valdier and accompanying his leader’s brother, Creon Reykill, and his human mate, Lady Carmen Walker-Reykill, to Earth most likely would be his last mission. Although this was his first trip to Earth, it was not the first time the Valdier had visited the planet. Zorn Reykill, King of Valdier, had made an emergency landing on the strange world after escaping captivity during an attempt by a group of traitors to steal the throne and start a war between the Valdier, Curizan and Sarafin. He had been injured and was rescued by beautiful Earth female Abby Tanner who miraculously turned out to be his true mate. The human race was a new species to the Valdier and Zoran’s discovery had given his people renewed hope for the future. Since that time, all four of the other Reykill princes along with several Valdier warriors had also found human mates. Jaguin was here on Earth with Creon Reykill and a group of Valdier warriors to aid Creon’s mate, Lady Carmen Reykill, locate and kill the man responsible for the murder of her first mate and unborn child. It was Jaguin’s job to help protect Lady Carmen, made all the more difficult by her currently being pregnant with twins. But that had not been the only reason for his desire to visit Earth. He had hoped that by coming to Earth on this mission, the Goddess would bless him by allowing him to find his mate among the humans just as all the Reykill brothers had. Unfortunately, during his time on Earth, none of the human females had stirred his dragon or excited his symbiot. It was time to admit failure and give in to the inevitable. His time was over. He would never find a mate in this lifetime… or would he? Surprisingly, he would, but never in a million years could he have imagined the pain and anger he experienced once he saw the beautiful human woman, bound, beaten, tortured and very near death… a female who was his true mate. After hundreds of years of searching, had he finally found the one female who could complete him as well as save both him and his dragon, only to lose her before they even had a chance to be together? Was he too late to save her? We’ll see!Beautiful botanist Sara Wilson has always been a survivor but she now clung to life by only a thread. She had lost track of the time along with the number of beatings she’s received at the hands of Columbian drug lord Cuello, her cruel and obviously demented captor. But she knew she had to hang on. Sara had always put the needs of others ahead of her own and she had to protect the other young woman, Emma, who was also a prisoner, and so very fragile, in mind as well as body. Sara had never been afraid of death. At this point, it would have been a welcome relief, but that doesn’t mean she wanted to die. She’d survived the horrors of being unloved and abandoned as a child; surely, she could survive this. She desperately wanted to live, but she was too weak; her body could not withstand much more of the punishment as Cuello and his men whipped and tortured her repeatedly, all the while calling her by another woman’s name, Carmen Walker. Whoever this Carmen Walker was and whatever she had done, it was obvious Cuello wanted her dead and was using Sara and Emma as look-alike substitutes to exact his punishment and revenge. As she felt her consciousness fading and her life force escaping, her final thoughts were those of regret… never again being able to work with her beloved plants and leaving Emma to suffer her fate alone. She had no idea that fate was about to intervene and offer her something she thought she’d never find. Surely, her mind was playing tricks on her because suddenly she could no longer feel the pain. She was surrounded by the comforting feelings of peace, safety, and warmth. It had to be trick… or had she been rescued by someone… or possibly by something? Dragon-shifters, golden symbiotic animals, spaceships and wondrous alien planets could never be real, right? After being abandoned by her mother, then suffering a lonely neglected childhood of being unloved by the only family she knew, and now enduring a harrowing ordeal at the hands of a madman, she had built a wall around her heart to protect her from ever being hurt again. She would never be able to conquer her inner demons and fall in love with anyone, much less a huge handsome alien who turned into a frightening dragon and had a golden symbiot as a companion, right? Hmm… We’ll see!

⭐ What can I say except this series just keeps getting better and more interesting. It is slightly different than the others in the series which is a good thing as it keeps things interesting. Some series can start to get a bit boring and repetitive and I can tell you now, this one doesn’t.I won’t give anything away other than you need to buy the book, and I cannot wait until the next one which is set up very nicely at the end of this book. I have every one of SE Smith’s books and there is only one I didn’t like and that was due to the main character and is my personal opinion only, especially as everyone else loved it. Susan please keep up the great work you are doing and hopefully we will see many many more stories from you

⭐ I have been caught in this series from the first book and now I am at book 8. How is that possible? Must be the fine writing/storytelling. The characters are so well drawn with their dialogue, their actions, and their stream of consciousness. No unnecessary words. No long-drawn out descriptions. Characters from other books intertwine with the characters in this book bringing the Earth, Valdier, Curizan and Sarafin worlds together and keeping my interest in what is happening in these worlds. The primary characters in this 8th novel are Sara and Jaguin. Rescuing Sara from a sadistic cartel lord on Earth, Jaguin is eager to claim Sara as his true mate. With patience and gentleness their story evolves. Ms. Smith has this whole relationship thing down. The book is about their story, and as in her other novels, that is enough. I am entertained on many levels — sci-fi, good overcoming evil, finding one’s strengths, developing ongoing relationships — and I could go on. Strong values being tested and re-affirmed win me over every time.

⭐ Another great Dragon Lords of Valdier book!Smith does an awesome job of immersing you in the alien landscape. Her descriptiveness is detailed and intriguing and you’re pulled into the scenes with ease. Her characters are strong and well defined and her plot line is individual to each book yet intertwines with the entire series.Smith has also introduced us to the next book in this addictive series with an ending that certainly isn’t a cliffhanger but is a gentle tease to keep readers vested in what happens to our friends on Valdier.If you enjoy reading sci-fi romance you’ll love this series! Although each book can be enjoyed as a stand-a-lone novel; I would strongly recommend reading the stories in order to gain the best enjoyment. The early series characters do interact with the new characters and you’ll have a better understanding of who everyone is. (For instance – we actually first meet Jaguin [The protagonist] in book 3! 😉 )Reading Order for The Dragon Lords of Valdier Series:Abducting Abby (Book 1)Capturing Cara (Book 2)Tracking Trisha (Book 3)Ambushing Ariel (Book 4)Cornering Carmen (Book 5)Paul’s Pursuit (Book 6)Twin Dragons (Book 7)Jaguin’s Love (Book 8)The Old Dragon of the Mountain’s Christmas (Book 9)

⭐ When I started to read this I felt right away that I was missing something, like a backstory, it seems as although that the author skipped it and assumed that you read the previous books. (I did not) The book assumes that you already know what’s going on. They meet Sara who is Joaquin’s life mate who has been tortured and on the verge of death, hmmmm. They take her onboard the ship and heal her.There is no real explanation of the symbiot, dragon and man and how they interact with one another. There is no world building, how they came to earth originally and why, once again they assume you read the previous books. The interaction between the characters is silted and the flowery words are annoying. Sara falls for Jaquin and consents to a sexual relationship with him way to soon for someone who has been traumatized, not only that but it seems whole sections of conversation between them is missing.I had difficulty keeping interest in this, I really did. It’s a good attempt but there is too much missing, that and the writing was subpar, at least their was no glaring typographical errors. Meh.

⭐ Thank you S.E. Smith, for another love story that keeps you on the edge of your seat! Jaguin’s and Sara story starts when Carmen goes back to kill the man that killed her husband and baby and almost her as well. They find out that he has been torturing women that look like Carmen, and find two women that are bearly alive and rush them back to the ship to help them…..the rest you will have to read about! But believe me you want regret it at all!! The Best part to me is the bite the men give to the woman that is his mate, when he breaths the dragons fire into her which puts her on a new course in her life.. she will never be the same, only better!! At the end of the book it says to be continued with the Twin Dragons Destiny…but I believe I’ve read about twin dragons….but will have to look back to see if it is the young ones cause this one is about the older ones that Aikaterina the goddess has decided to give a second chance. Anyway, read about Jaguin’s and Sara’s story and all the turmoil Sara goes thru in her life and in her mind. But never fear Jaguin is there to help her. Love this series, just selfish and want more, faster….lolol.

⭐ This is Jaguin and Sara’s story . Jaguin has decided that he will never find his mate and takes on last assignment to help Lord Creon to guard his mate Carmen while she seeks justice for the past . Once there he then finds his mate being beaten and just about loses his mind ! Sara has scars inside due to all that she suffered and is not reading to accept that she now has an alien mate . This story will make you feel every emotion there is !! Sara finally decides that she will give Jaguin a chance but is still very scared . She can not sleep without nightmares and he helps her with that and a bond is building between them . This story and series will rock your world it is so good !! This is well written and strongly recommended to all !!

⭐ Another wonderful book in the Dragon Lords of Valdier series. I love this series because each book can be read as a stand-alone story, with a new couple and a HEA. And yet, if you read the series like I do it is so much more rich and fulfilling. In a prior book Sara was horribly abused by a vicious drug dealer. She was rescued, but that book was not her story, it was Carmen’s story. This book tells us what became of Sara. A lot of it is sad, dealing with the painful memories. But Sara’s true mate, Jaguin, is just the dragon shifter to help her through it. But what I really loved was the ending of this book. It was so very good and unexpected. I cannot wait for the next Dragon Lords of Valdier book.

⭐ This series is honestly my favorite. In each book, there is a strong heroine, and a strong male who loves her. In each book each couple have something to overcome, to battle usually each other at first. Then a common enemy or problem. I love the world’s, the characters, you grow to truly care about each one, eagerly awaiting the next book to catch up on the other couples life’s. The world and characters become almost as real to you as our own world. Fabulous author, fabulous book. This book Sara was rescued from a abuser on earth and because of her injuries was taken by a warrior from Valdier whose true mate she was. He just had to convince her she was strong enough to give love a chance. I truly recommend this book to anyone who loves good sci fi fantasy romance.

⭐ I have read most of these books, and this one I liked the least and why I am finished with the series. or should I say with S.E. SMITH. This is book 8, book 9 is THE OLD DRAGON OF THE MOUNTAINS CHRISTMAS. WHERE IS TWIN DRAGONS DESTINY? I also did not like the way this one was done as far as characters go. I won’t give spoilers, but I will say, the way this book ended? That was it for me. so basically, this is a cliff hanger and I don’t see an ending.S.E.SMITH, I have read quite a few of your books and really enjoyed them, but it’s time to take a break from you.
