A Veil of Gods and Kings (Apollo Ascending Book 1) by Nicole Bailey – Review by Vanessa Watts

A Veil of Gods and Kings by Nicole Bailey
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love all books about the Greek Gods and this was definitely a new one for me! This is an enemy to lovers’ romance that will leave you on the edge of your seat. This book had me pulling for the characters at some points while screaming at them when they acted irrationally at others.

Apollo, half deity and half mortal, is torn by the forced ascension Zeus wants to be God of the sun and his mortal life with his half sister! After a veiled threat and ultimatum, Apollo is sent to spend a year with Prince Hyacinth, who is the apple of his father’s eye and seems to never put a toe out of line. Unfortunately Apollo cannot stand Hyacinth but complies to protect his mortal sister. As the year goes on and they spend more time together each realizes that the other is not at all like they thought from past experiences. What happens when the feelings become too much with a time clock that is not in their favor?

As you read more secrets are unraveled and things aren’t as they seem for Apollo or Hyacinth and his kingdom. This is a book that shows how first impressions impact the way we see others and that past experiences impact how you act thus impacting others perceptions of you! If you like romance, with secrets and a little mythology thrown in then you should definitely give this book a try. You will not be disappointed!
