My rating: 4 of 5 stars
RAVAGED (Eternal Guardians 7.5) by Elisabeth Naughton is the latest book in the Series and we have Aristokles and Daphne’s story….. I found Ari a very intriguing character, when he was first introduced, albeit very briefly, in the previous book,Twisted https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... and I was eager to learn more about him.
Aristokles, one of the original Argonauts had faked his death, leaving his young son, Cerek with the Argonauts, in order to keep them safe. He has been hiding for over fifty years fearing that his uncontrollable desire to kill any Siren he comes across may lead to his own madness and destruction. He has suffered immensely at the hands of the Gods and now lives a very solitary life, hidden away in the cold and remote part of the world, his only aim is to revenge the pain and suffering he has endured.
Daphne, a Siren in training, is given the task by Zeus and Athena to kill Ari, who has become a thorn on their side. She’s determined to complete her mission, as she knows all about his mission to kill all sirens.
But when she’s rescued by Ari and taken to his home, she begins to see that he’s not the person she had believed him to be, but that there’s something inside him that tells her a different story.
I loved Daphne…she’s determined, sweet, endearing and doesn’t give up easily, as Ari soon discovers.
I so enjoyed the development of their romance….
The sexual tension between these two are fantastic and way beyond sizzling….
Daphne knew she was playing with fire, but she no longer cared. Before Ari could push her away, she pressed her lips to his.
He didn’t break the kiss, continued to nip and suck and lick like he couldn’t get enough.
His mouth turned greedy beneath hers. Hot. Wild.
And for so few pages, the author packs in a lot of action and characters we have come to know and love and new ones that really sparked my interest….Silas, Ari’s friend and Daphne’s Siren friend, Sappheire…I wonder if these two will have another appearance in the future.
A great romance with some fabulous dialogue and twists and turns and captivating characters.
The book ended in a totally unexpected and shocking way….what a cliffhanger!!!! I cannot wait for the next book!
One of my favorite quotes
