For the Crown is the story of Selena, a human princess in line for the throne. However, her path is not guaranteed and she must find a Drengr mate to inherit the crown. The solution? Lena meets with 27 eligible Drengr bachelors also hoping to find their mate. For the Crown is a classic fantasy tale that puts a unique spin on the soulmate trope- plus dragon shapeshifters! There was clear character growth throughout and well-developed supporting characters. I was excited to see a subversion of well-known tropes and solid world-building. While I appreciated how well the romance was constructed, I didn’t feel overly invested in it. For me, the world and quest for the crown was more gripping and engaging. I would love to know more about the mental bond between Drengr and see what happens next for supporting characters, such as Evelyn and Daryn. I will definitely be waiting for the next installment in this world! Thank you to Melissa Mitchell and Netgalley for a free ARC in exchange for an honest review.
