Whoever said diamonds are a girl’s best friend, got it wrong.
It turns out, bones are a girl’s best friend.
Not that kind of bone… get your mind out of the gutter.

We’d arrived at the museum, and everything was going well. Okay, fine. That’s a lie.
It had gone exactly like the rest of my life had since my dino mates had come crashing into my life… which is to say, it had been a catastrophe of prehistoric proportions. By a weird twist of fate, we’d narrowly avoided being arrested after we’d destroyed the fundraising gala and terrorized the guests.

Things didn’t go as I’d planned for the rest of the trip, either. Especially when Albert decided to slip his leash and go looking for his own little souvenir to take home….
Except, he didn’t go shopping in the museum’s gift shop.
And it wasn’t exactly a replica that he picked out.

Which really sucked, since the absolute last thing I needed was another dinosaur shifter to deal with….

Dino Magic is a light-hearted romantic comedy series with a whole lot of steam! This isn’t a save-the-world type of story, but rather it focuses on Arizona’s coming into her hidden abilities. In each book she will be tracking down a gift, or a fated mates that been left by her great-great-so-many-greats-I-can't-even-type-them-all-grandmother.

This is a paranormal series, not a serious true-to-science series. So, if you are hoping to learn about dinosaurs, this probably isn’t the read for you. If you want to giggle hard enough that the people around you think you're crazy, then this might be the book for you!

Review:

You know I honestly thought I read this one last year but when I went to check on something on these books, I saw that I had not read this one. So, I grabbed this book to help make sense of book three. I am glad I did.

Sedona continues to astound me with her dino magic novels. Each one has the right amount of sass and spice to keep her readers glued from beginning to end. It also helps that the little chapter jokes are just fun additions to the novel.

Also, can we say that it was great to see Arizona now having a bestie?? I love Suli! She is so awesome and she's perfect for being Arizona's friend. The girl needs it especially when she is surrounded by nothing but males. Don't get me wrong, it is nice to have all those delicious males, but you need a female friend in there too. *winkie wink*

The downside to this novel was toward the ending. While I love Arizona, I did not like what she did. I don't plan to spoil anything for future readers. So, I am going to just say go read this novel.

I’m ready for the chaos of Texas to be a speck in my rearview mirror.
So when the museum director throws me a bone by arranging for us to visit a fossil dig in Utah, I jump at the opportunity.

I need a breather from all the craziness that has become my life since waking multiple dino shifters. A dig in Utah sounds like exactly what I need, the perfect getaway. As long as I stay away from any dino shifter bones… other than in the bedroom, of course.

The first surprise was the primitive campsite. These cabins don’t even have running water. Oof.
The second surprise was being chased through the woods by someone—or something. Gulp.
The third? Well, let’s just say my attacker was more than a little freaked out when we tumbled into a pit and he came face-to-face with a brontosaurus. Surprise, mother-clucker!

You would have thought dealing with a newly awakened shifter, and working through things with Albert would have been enough drama for one vacation. But someone is stealing from the dig site, and suspicion falls on everyone in the campsite… including my mates, Suli, and me.

My mates create a security detail to unravel the mystery, while I spend my time learning how to control my magic. I absolutely suck at it, but don’t judge me! It’s just really tough, okay?

How’s a girl supposed to manage four dinosaur shifters, a sexy detective on high alert, and Albert Einswine, who continues to cause endless mischief and chaos?

I’ll tell you how—with lots of coffee, no sleep, and a possibly a slight detour into madness. Ignore the evil maniacal laughter. Maybe I’ll feel better after a nap.

Review:

I love it when a series flows from one book to the other without breaking a sweat and this series does that. Sass, corny chapter jokes, and the characters continue to flourish through each book that it takes hold of the reader and has them eager for the next book, the next laugh, and the next storyline to pull them to the last page.

Arizona has been through a traumatic experience from the last book and there was a revelation that came along with it, but none of her mates are aware of it. So, when Arizona and her mates are given a chance to take a breather and attend a dig campsite. Sprinkle in flying pigs and a brand new dinosaur and you have a recipe for hilarity and spice.

This series continues to be a fun addition and I love that we are seeing new additions to Arizona's harem. Pretty soon that girl is going to have to buy an entire castle just to have a large wing for her men. LOL

In all seriousness, I am glad we did get more of Albert. I would, however, like to know more of his backstory and why the dinos are all afraid/wary of him. I am aware they call him a demon and he has come out and said he is not at all good but what I want to know is why?

And what are his connections to the other dinosaur? I am hoping to see these questions answered in the next installments.
