He is an asshole. 
She is constantly horny. 
He is toxic. 
She is crybaby.

I read this type of story countless times. It was very predictable. At the start I was really hopeful because she has a disability and I thought it would be better used. Later, it is barely mentioned.

When she was bonding with her dragon, there was something I have never seen before, and again I was hopeful, but it was completely under-utilized.

Last third of the book turned to trashy smut.

This is probably the only book with dragons and dragonriders I have read where dragons take the back seat. The author somehow made a book about dragons pretty boring.

Long story short, very average romantasy.
