So happy to be back in this world! And as what happens with me and all series, I can't wait for the next one.

Carver and Bellanca are working together to bring Zeus the power he needs to overthrow the God(s) trying to take him out, and they're doing it in Atlantis - far from their family and loved ones, forced to rely only on each other.

I don't know what it is about books involving Gods, maybe just that there are so many different stories to tell, but I really like what Bouchet did with the Gods,

and the fight they ended up having towards the end of the book was exciting to read

.

Carver and Bell's story was a 1 and done but I am VERY excited about book 6 and where that will take us.

4.0

Interfering gods, edge-of-your-seat action, and spectacular magic bring two more soul mates together in this epic saga between good and evil.

Bellanca and Carver finally did it! It only took months of sniping at each other, saving each other, and some painful personal realizations, but they staked their claim and it was glorious. The timing and location were maybe a bit off, but who cares. It was hotter than the forest fire Bellanca almost started.

The god battles were impressive and destructive and overwhelming. There was a lot going on with trying to remember all the events that brought us to this moment, Bellanca and Carver figuring out their mission, and all the hints thrown in about what might come next.

Violence and death were sprinkled liberally throughout, that sometimes felt a bit unnecessary. And the story used some unexpected convenient plot devices to solve an issue. But, overall, this bid to restore Atlantis was exciting and I enjoyed it a lot.

This series is for you if you like steamy fantasy romance. It is definitely best to read the books in order.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for providing me with a copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
