a… a thru…. a thruple?!?!?! Yes, miss Katee Robert. Yes yes yes!

I have yet to read the first two books in this series, but I'm calling this one as my favorite now. The tension between Helen, Patroclus, and Achilles was EXQUISITE and SIMMERING and PERFECT, and the Ares tournament made for an intriguing backdrop. More good throuples in fiction, please! #romance #mythology

This is another in the Dark Olympus series and this centres on Helen, Achilles and Patroclus. It very steamy and full of action.

Throuple's aren't really my personal cup of tea (though obviously zero judgement here!). However I enjoyed the previous books in this series enough for that not to prevent me from happily reading it anyway. This had an interesting Greek mythology meets Hunger Games vibe, 🌶 scenes (duh), and seemed to serve the purpose of furthering the overall plot of the series more than anything else. Obvs not my favorite so far, but also glad I didn't skip.

This book felt different then her previous two in the series. This story feels like it is gearing up for something big with all the characters she is introducing. The sex scenes were still streamy as always. But there was a major plot point created at the end of the story that I hope will develop into something throughout the rest of the series. It really adds to the whole story to have a strong plot.

I have a real soft spot for decently written smut 🤷‍♀️ Katee Robert writes ridiculously spicy books and manages to inject romance in characters that I actually care about. The plot is a bit thin, but because it is part of a series, I can see an overarching plot beginning to emerge and that really helps the narrative structure.... I liked it! 👍 ❤️✨️

Smut, coffee and horse riding = perfect Saturday morning 🌶📚☕️🐎

Next up! I didn‘t love “Electric Idol” as much as “Neon Gods,” because I am a sucker for Hades/Persephone of all kinds, but it was still good! Onto “Wicked Beauty,” which reimagines the stories of Helen, Achilles, and Patroclus. #wickedbeauty #kateerobert #darkolympus #helenoftroy #achilles #patroclus #greekmythology

Just as good as the others- strong female lead, well developed characters, and lots of drama! What else do you need?

Ms. Roberts you have done it again! What a beautiful way to weave the mythology we know and the fiction we couldn't imagine together to give us a gorgeous love story. Helen, Achilles, and Patroclus have such a smoldering hot journey to each other.

June Book 22/25 #LitsyLove #bookspinbingo

Robert balanced a ridiculous fantasy tournament and a throuple situation and kept it fun throughout. I continue to look forward to the next book in this series.

Wicked Beauty is a fun, very sexy read about Helen fighting (quite literally) to be more than just a pretty face to be married off. She competes for the coveted title of Ares against famed warrior Achilles and his right hand man and lover, Patroclus. Along the way, sheets and hearts get tangled as the competition heats up.

Thank you to Source Books Casablanca via #NetGalley for the ARC!

This was a surprise throuple book, which isn‘t normally my thing. However, the plot of Wicked Beauty kept me all in. Helen is fighting for the position of Ares, and so are a lot of other people. Helen is so strong and determined and I loved every minute of her being a badass. The competitions were awesome too.

This one was sooooo good. 🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶 spicy! Love the world building she‘s doing with this series. This was perfect company for me whilst sitting in my dads hospital room. #romantsy #greekmythology

So far ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and my current favorite read of the year is a toss up between Elektra and Remarkably Bright Creatures. And I‘m thankful that we moved my elderly dad in with us so he‘s been here for all of the medical issues he‘s had. In fact heading to the hospital now so clue can be admitted. @Librarybelle @BarbaraBB @BClark @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Eggs

4.5/5

Another wonderful Dark Olympus novel. Helen is not a prize to be won, and she'll do what it takes to have her own power in the city, even competing to win the title of Ares against warriors like Achilles and Patroclus. Achilles is also hungry for the power that comes from being one of Olympus's elite, and with the help of his partner Patroclus, he is certain he will be the next Ares.
