Interesting story but it had a YA feel.
It was nice to read a romance that had a damaged woman instead of the man being the damaged one.

I enjoyed the book and look forward to sequel. An oceanographer, Finn and a singer, Raven cross paths and discover they have a common ancient past going back to the Greek Gods. Along their journey they discover they were selected to save the world.

Rating 4/5

I love any Greek mythology based romance and this was a great start to a new series. A few hit or misses but definitely has great grounding for a hit fantasy series! There was more romance than fantasy and adventure so that was a little disappointing for me. I like my fantasies very adventurous with struggles and mystery so that the romance is worth fighting for. I could see what the author is trying to attempt with this and expect the sequels to be much better.

I received this book as an e-ARC from a NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I enjoyed the story. The plot was easy to follow and I really flew through the book. The characters were fun and I enjoyed the subtle references to modern day content.

I loved Dee. She’s the cool grandma everyone wants! Finn is the typical guy in these kinds of books. Attractive, sexy, temperamental but yet loyal & caring. Raven is sweet and introverted. And while she made me want to smack her on the situations where she was weaker, I moved passed it and allowed it to show her journey and growth as a character. Personally I though Donovan deserved keep than just a slap across the face. But was proud of her in the end when she told him to shove it.

I thought her and Finn’s relationship moved a little too quickly. I mean the woman just got a divorce from a man that cheated on her with a much younger woman. It’s gonna take more than a couple of evenings and attraction for me to trust someone enough to spread my legs for them. But that’s just me. I understand that you’ve gotta get the story line and their relationship going so I chose to look passed it and continue on. Albeit through some eye rolls.

I would say this is not a “fantasy” novel. There were some references to Greek Mythology but not enough for me to say this is a Fantasy novel. I’d put it in the adult romance category. I understand that this is the first book of a series so I certainly hope that there’s more Greek mythology in the rest of the series! Hoping it’s the adult version of the Percy Jackson novels that I read as a kid.

Ultimately I would recommend this to other people and am looking forward to reading the next book in the series! So please get that out ASAP


I will post my full review on my website and on my Instagram page in the next few days or this upcoming weekend

Start off to an adult greek mythology fantasy. Main characters were all adults.. and the greek stuff is confusing and not similar to actual mythology. If you like a good adult romance , you will love this book. Writing wasn't bad.

If you're interested in different types of mythology, then you'll totally love this beautifully written novel.
This story is very immersed in mythology, romance, suspense and mystery. At the beginning, it may be confusing at first if you're not familiar with the mythology. You will catch on as you read on. I was fortunate enough to really follow the storyline without getting lost. I started reading mythology when I was in 5th grade in a tiny library in my school out in the country. I loved that little library with hardly any light from the windows, the bookshelves were from the ceiling to the floor.( I think they did. I was a little girl!) I would sit on one of the step stool and start reading. Okay, back to the book. As you read on, the story will flow.
The mythology and fantasy combined, were extraordinarily woven together with the present, the past, the suspense, romance and the thrill of a mystery without being a hot mess.

.
The day I started reading it, I did not want to put it down, but I was so exhausted, my nook fell on face and stayed there til I woke up, but I went right back reading it. It's just that good. The ending ended with a BANG! I LOVED it! I cannot wait for the 2nd book to come out.
I recieved this wonderful eARC from Wild Rose Press Inc through Net Galley in exchange for my unbiased and honest review. Thank you!
