This was different then what I normally read. I love love love Loki and I think that’s what drew me in. The only issue I had is there wasn’t as much action as I would have liked. It had a ton of smutty times (not complaining), but not a ton of action until the last few chapters. I’m interested to see the. Story of her brother and Di. Will continue with book 2

The Trickster's Lover by Samantha Macleod

5 Stars!!!!!


It had me hooked from page one! I love paranormal romances and this one takes another love of mine of folklore and ancient Norse Gods. I mean how can you go wrong with the god of mischief? The author really brings the story to life and I just love how she brings the chemistry between Carol and Loki. I just loved the whole complexity of Carol's character when she thought she was hallucinating. I mean isnt it every girls dream to love a God?

The whole storyline just had me glued to the pages and I couldnt wait to see what would happen next. I really liked how Carol played a part in saving not only Loki but the Nine Relms. The book fulfilled my adventure quota for the week and I am looking forward to reading more by this author.

The Tricksters Lover
By Samantha MacLeod
5 stars

When I first read the blurb for this book I only saw ‘Loki’ and I was in! I absolutely love the Norse Gods (although it could be the films and the actors who play then but still) and this book did not disappoint at all. I was captivated by every word I read, I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough and I couldn’t put it down at all. I haven’t read anything by this author before and this book was a fantastic introduction to her as an author. It was a fantastic read – one that I will definitely be reading again!
I loved the depth of the characters in this story especially Caroline – she was completely crushing on Loki (not that I blame her to be honest!) and because of that she puts herself in situations I’m sure she’s never dreamed of.
I loved Loki too, for me I think it was great that he quite what I was expecting either! The author did a great job with the plot and storyline for this book!
I cannot wait to read whatever she comes up with next! A fantastic 5 stars read that will not disappoint any paranormal/Norse God loving reader!!

The Trickster's Lover: A Steamy Paranormal Romance with the Norse God Loki: Gods and Lovers Series by Samantha MacLeod is a paranormal fantasy romance story. This is not my first story by this author but it is my favorite of hers so far. I enjoy how she can write a story that will pull me in right from the beginning. Her details make me feel like I am right there with the characters. Her characters are connectable, lovable and true to life. They will take you on a roller coaster ride of various emotions that you don't want to miss. This is the story of Caroline and Loki. Caroline has moved to Chicago away from her family and her boyfriend to attend a university. As she finds herself single again little does she know her sanity is about to be tested. She has been waiting months for a set of books from the library, she is so excited to pick them up and dig into them. As she digs into them she catches the attention of Loki. What will happen when he suddenly appears and rocks her world? As he visits her more often will it put her safety in danger? When Loki's visits all of a sudden stop, Caroline decides she needs to find out why. How far will she go to reach Val-Hall? Is she willing to put herself in danger to find out about Loki? Will everything she has learned be enough to save herself and Loki? These are two strong characters that you will just love. Caroline has a little insecurity problem but she is smart and determined. I enjoyed watching her grow throughout this story. She is just so down to earth and has a kind heart. She thinks she is going crazy when Loki starts appearing. She tries to resist at first but the attraction between these two is so hot that it just can't be controlled. Loki is sexy and mysterious and I enjoyed his character. They took me on a few twists and turns that I didn't see coming, some left me on the edge of my seat where other times left me needing to cool down. These two have such great chemistry together. But the question that Caroline struggles with is the difference between reality and myth. How far will they go for their love? What will fate have in store for them as Caroline starts her journey into solving the mystery of Loki? I highly recommend this story, I know you will want to see what happens to Caroline and Loki and if they find their HEA.
