Dragonswood

Dragonswood by Janet Lee Carey
So I know this book isn't very well known, but I really enjoyed it! It started out being a little hard to read, but by the middle of the book, I was hooked!

Also sorry I'm lame and can't seem to write a good summary so all the credit for this summary goes to goodreads.com
"On Wilde Island, there is no peace between dragons, fairies, and humans.
Wilde Island is in an uproar over the recent death of its king. As the uneasy pact between dragons, fairies, and humans begins to fray, the royal witch hunter with a hidden agenda begins a vengeful quest to burn girls suspected of witchcraft before a new king is crowned.
Strong-willed Tess, a blacksmith’s daughter from a tiny hamlet, wants more for herself than a husband and a house to keep. But in times like these wanting more can be dangerous. Accused of witchery, Tess and her two friends are forced to flee the violent witch hunter. As their pursuer draws ever closer they find shelter with a huntsman in the outskirts of the forbidden Dragonswood sanctuary. But staying with the mysterious huntsman poses risks of its own: Tess does not know how to handle the attraction she feels for him—or resist the elusive call that draws her deeper onto the heart of Dragonswood."

I mentioned above that I didn't like the beginning of this book, and it was because it was just so "violent" I guess you could say. Because Tess was accused of being a witch she was tortured for a little while, and I was a little iffy about it. But it only lasted for the first part of the book. After that, it got really good! I also really liked it because it was super clean and had a little romance. Some parts of the book were super predictable, but others were totally surprising! Definitely a GOOD book! 
Rate: PG/PG13
    Clean! No cuss words! Small "violence"
GOOD OR GOODBYE?
    GOOD!!!!
