Review: Pia Saves the Day by Thea Harrison
Pia Saves the Day by Thea Harrison
Elder Races #6.6
In the latest story of the Elder Races, two mates face their deadliest challenge yet—each other…
Pia and Dragos’s magical young son Liam (the Peanut), is growing at an unprecedented rate, and if that isn’t enough, he is also exhibiting new, and unpredictable, magical gifts. To protect him, the concerned parents decide to move to upstate New York.
Both Dragos and Pia relish the idea of leaving behind the city. They finally have the space to indulge their Wyr side, and Liam can grow in safety. It’s a breath of fresh air—literally—but their idyllic situation is shattered when Dragos is injured in a freak accident.
Stripped of his memory and bereft of Pia’s taming influence, there’s nothing holding back Dragos’s darkest side. And in order to restore her family and save her mate, Pia must confront the most powerful menace in Elder Races history.
It’s going to take more than a penny to fix this…
When I finished this novella, I was left scratching my head just a bit as things were anything but settled, and typically with outtakes like this there aren't any huge game changers. Only, in this case there was, and that caught me off guard and probably would have upset me if it had not of been for the note from the author about the third book in this mini out-take series. Hopefully that will bring a little more resolution to things.
Getting more into the actual story, I have to admit I'm not the biggest fan of the amnesia trope, so that did lessen my enjoyment of this novella just a bit. That being said, as it was Dragos and Pia, it wasn't too hard to overlook as I love seeing them together, and this gave a nice throwback to the initial tension and massive push/pull between them. Just when I thought there couldn't be any risks or danger to their relationship, this huge wrench was thrown into things, and I love how Thea keeps the readers from becoming complacent. I can honestly say I never know what to expect next in this series, and I love it.
I haven't read anything from Thea Harrison that I haven't enjoyed, and Pia Saves the Day is no exception to that. I highly recommend this to any Pia and Dragos fans, trust me you won't want to miss this.
