“A true fallen angel, too bad for heaven, too good for hell, stuck on earth like a living divinity.”

When Lou was 7 she ran into the arms of a 26 year old Zeus. From across the parking lot she knew that he would be her guardian monster and the only one that would love & protect her all her life.
When Zeus went to prison Lou & Zeus became pen pals and formed a bond that would tie them together forever.

I love daddy Zeus, this man is the best example of how to treat your woman. He would burn the world down for Lou and kill anyone who gets in her way.
Lou is one of the strongest MFCs I have ever read, the strength she shows at such a young age and the conviction she shows in her beliefs and her love for Zeus is unmatched.

Age gap is fine, but this one didn’t sit right with me. She’s 17, and he said he had been waiting for 10 years to have her. Gross, nope. Not for me.

Daddy Z… what can I say. He’s amazing. Rough. Tough. And as soft as a teddy bear for Lou. Didn’t expect to enjoy this book at first. Daddy Z was everything Lou needed and deserved.

God of Thunder

Wow!

I must say, I am not a big fan of MC stories- not really sure why but it’s not my go to but this book! Zeus!

What an epic character! Big of life, love, vengeance! He’s just massive (being 6’5 didn’t hurt either haha).

And bless lil Loulou, she literally dug her claws in and would not release this poor man. What a very weird meet where he basically saved her life in so many ways but in all the ways that mattered she gave him back his.

What to expect?
Swearing (lots of it, absolutely fabu!)
Smexing (even actions leading to smexing was pure fire)
Gang-ish (it is a MC book after all)
Lots of brotherly love, loyalty and just togetherness

I REALLY enjoyed this book! And GD is a new to me author so now I need to stalk her life.

I 100% loved the hell out of this book!! I want more!

I don't know if biker romances are for me lol


I read Serpentine Valentine by the same author so I figured I would try her other books and I just don't think MC romances are for me. I also found some parts were not well written and it wasn't my favourite. This book was soooo different from SV, which I expected but also wasn't fully prepared for the 180-degree flip in vibes and style. 

As a side note, there were also a few scenes where in my head went "Oh my god that's so white trash." So do with that what you will.

Okay…. Don’t look at me like that! Let me explain!
I am extremely aware of how insanely problematic this whole love story pretty much is okay. I am. Check my notes for reference……
but. lol
The smut was hot and tell me you wouldn’t! Look me in my eyes and tell me Zeus motherfucking Garro comes up to you and starts throwing around dirty talk and calling himself daddy and TELL ME YOU WOULDNT! Because you know you would

this is a challenge for my taste of book. I can’t take big age gap (in the book there are 19 years!), specifically between older H and younger h. Giana’s writing style is so unique though, I would definitely continue to reading this series!
