Tempted by Elisabeth NaughtonMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
3,5 stars
Elisabeth Naughton’s Eternal Guardians series continues in Tempted the 3rd book.
I love the world that the author is building…..
The previous book, Entwined, ended with a bang in which Isadora, the spoiled and untouched princess of Argolea is kidnapped by witches.
She is rescued by Demetrius,
. The dark, dangerous and damaged Argonaut warrior, who has been hiding his love for her because he believes that the secret his heritage makes him unworthy of her love, even though he knows that she’s his true soul mate!
“He was doing the right thing. No matter how painful, no matter how upset she thought she was now…in the long run, ending it here, before she learned the truth about him, was the only thing he could do.”Atalanta, leader of the daemons and enemy of Argolea plans on using Demetrius feelings for Isadora for her benefit.
Sending the two to the desolated and hellish island named Pandora will force Demetrius to bend to her demands.
What happens is that Isadora sees something good in Demetrius and she will go to any lengths to make him see that they are meant to be together.
“Demetrius, who we are is not a result of where we come from. It’s the combination of what we do and how we live that determines who we are.”Isadora was the star in this story.
I had doubts about her ability to become Queen of Argolea. She seemed so fragile and weak, unable to stand up to her father and to anyone who crossed her path. But here…she shines. She fights for what’s right and for her man.
I love the dialogue, the twists and turns, the likeable cast of characters and the development of a world that is so totally believable.
Loved the end of this book….not the cliffhanger, which there is one of course, but the fact that Demetrius and Isadora finally get their HEA
If you love PNR, then this is definitely a series that should be on your list!!
