This was so incredibly entertaining from start to finish. I was immediately pulled into Vanessa’s life and her interactions with Raef and Grey. Once I started, I could not stop and now I have to wait for the next installment! I cannot sing enough praises for my love of this series. Sign me up to be first in line when the next book comes out!

This book had me captivated from the beginning. Like the stay up all night to binge read kind of good. I was so hooked that I didn’t even realize the end was coming until it did and now I’m left here impatiently waiting for book two.
The character and world building Hazel Storm has done is amazing. Nothing is rushed and there is so much more to learn and find out in the next book. Each character has so much personality and soul especially the main character Vanessa. I just love her! She is caring and kind but funny and strong too.
She is a hairdresser who has a knack for bringing out peoples inner beauty. With her life turned upside down, difficult choices ahead and a new love growing she has to decide if her sacrifice is something she is willing to make.
This is a slow burn novel with the only downside being that the RH side of the story hasn’t really taken off yet. However, I defintley think that will be picking up in book two. I cannot wait to see where Hazel Storm takes these characters next!

This is my first book from this author. I really enjoyed it. The Author really dives into making characters and plot memorable. I have to admit, I finished it in one sitting. I was captivated from the beginning to the end. I can’t wait to read the rest of the series.

The Don (Her Three Immortals Book 1) by Hazel Storm
3 Stars
This is my first book by this author. Although this should be a reverse harem, it is very tame. Nothing much happens aside from a few kisses and some erotic thoughts. Grey is the Don of the Underworld and is hot as hell (pun intended). Raef is a Demi god and is just as beautiful. Aroz is an angel, golden wings and all. All three are attracted to the same lovely lady. Vanessa has an inner beauty that spreads to everyone that she touches. Unknowingly she gets on the bad side of the goddess of beauty. Having the wrath of a god against her puts her in mortal danger. With her brother terminally ill, she has tried everything to save him. Will she have to make a deal with the devil?
I like the main characters and am happy that the author integrated some Greek mythology into the story. It was refreshing and it’s something that I love. The premise of the story is interesting but I found it somewhat slow. The book ends on a cliffhanger which I never particularly like. I think the series has potential and I want to see what happens next so I will be looking for part two.

The Don (Her Three Immortals Book 1)
By Hazel Storm
This was a great read. This book grabbed my attention from the start and I didn’t put it down until I finished reading it. Vanessa is trying everything she can to help her brother Piper, who is very sick. Vanessa has a big heart, she’s intelligent, genuinely sweet and a hard worker. I found her to be relatable and I kept rooting for her and her family. The fact that there are three attractive men in this story helps a lot. They are half brothers and each have their own powers. I enjoyed the author’s take on mythology, I found this story original and intriguing. This is rich in detail and the author left us wanting more. We get to know Grey and Raef in this book but we don’t know much about Aroz, so I’m hoping to get to know him more in the next book. I can’t wait to read the next book to see where the author takes us. I recommend reading this book.

Surprised would be an understatement! I elected to pick this novel up mainly for the steamy synopsis, and the want to get down and dirty with my next read, and, seemed like the premise would make for an easy read. I was right about one of those things. This book is full of steamy, surprising encounters, which truly does keep you on your toes, and leave you wanting to know more about each of the brothers. Of course, Mr. Fox piqued my interest, given his personality, the way he showed how much he cared for Vanessa, and her brother Piper, and his overall wanton to help. Grey keeps you quite intrigued, as he pulls the mysterious card, and plays that quite well. You can tell he also has a big heart, but due to his problem with excess, he keeps that hidden behind locked walls. This first book in Her Three Immortals series really got me out of my comfort zone in the way of genre’s, and I am very excited to start her second novel in the series. I can’t imagine what kind of hell Vanessa will bring to, well, Hell! Amazing job, Hazel Storm, well done. Highly recommend!

Vanessa is not just your average mortal girl, and she has caught the attention of more than one Devine figure. Grey, Don of the Underworld, and the mysterious Raef, have both inspired feelings in her she was not expecting. But with her plate full of trying to take care of her younger brother, and find out the source of some mysterious murders, Vanessa finds her heart torn all directions. This contemporary romance is part of a three-book series, and author Hazel Storm does a enjoyable job blending mythology into a modern steamy romance.

Okay, books like this one are some of my favourite, I love angel and demon stories. So, going into this one I did have some expectations. The Don by Hazel Storm definitely did not disappoint. Just have to say, wow! This was a book that I enjoyed immensely, more than a lot of ones I have read recently. I was intrigued through the whole story. I read it so fast, I needed to know what happened next! The characters were very well written, they made you want them to have happy endings, cheer for them. I can’t wait to see where everything goes in the next book in the series!!

This book is only for those over 18 due to its adult content.
Vanessa Maan is a woman who can bring out the beauty in those around her and her job as a hairdresser and beautician enables her to do this, but since her dad died and left her family nothing, apart from his car “Dante” she has lost faith in men, they are all either angel’s or another type of word beginning with a! However, she has her mum and her brother who love her as much as she loves them and it is the only thing keeping them going with him not being well.
When she is returning home one day, she is nearly run over by her neighbour’s son, but he is not what she remembers of him, btu when she sees who is moving into his old room, she realises that her new neighbour is hot as hell and when she is introduced to him, she feels a strange connection to him which she cannot explain, the problem is that he feels the same, but because he is Grey, the Don of the Underworld and god of excess, he knows he needs to stay away from her. Meanwhile, when Vanessa makes a trip to New York for a couple of meetings, she is caught in a snowstorm, this is where she runs into Raef, he is handsome and sexy, but he is also one of the men which her mother warned her away from, however, he treats her just like a gentleman would and takes her for coffee and dinner, plus organises a hotel for her for the night and escorts her there where they swap numbers, but unknown to her, he is also part god.
After the snowstorm passes and Vanessa makes it back to work, albeit a bit late, it isn’t the welcome she expects when it isn’t her boss who confronts her about it, it is apparently a woman whom she has employed as their new assistant manager, but she is regarded coldly and cannot understand why, but she apologises and puts it behind her and gets on with her day. As time passes, she spends more time with Raef and he helps her with some of the problems she is up against, things at work also turn from bad to worse, but she has no idea why, this is when Aroz turns up and puts a spoke into the mix, he is an angel of love with heavenly looks and wings to match and he is an angel with a mission and Vanessa is firmly in his sights.
What will happen when all three of these sexy men come into Vanessa’s life, will it be heaven, hell or something in between? This is a steamy romance with as much trouble as there is lust, where making choices may just be the hardest thing on earth to do.

Oh My Goodness This Book!!!! I absolutely devoured this one, it was simply phenomenal!! Right from the get go I was intrigued, I had all kinds of questions and I couldn’t wait to get all my answers.
I loved all of the detail and drama, there was never a dull moment with all the twist and turns and multiple character POV. It was intense, steamy, complex and addicting.

The Don is the first book in Her Three Immortals series by Hazel Storm. This was such a fun story to read. When I read the blurb I just knew I had to read it. I am happy to say that it was everything I expected, and more. This is a sexy paranormal reverse-harem romance, with a very captivating storyline.
Grey is the Don of the Underworld, on a mission to collect as many souls as he can. That means spending a month in the mortal realm. But things are about to get interesting. Vanessa’s younger brother is gravely ill and she will do everything she can to find a cure. Has the solution to her problem just moved in across the street? But things are not quite what they seem. Get set for some fun and drama.
Told from several POV’s, with a bit of a cliffhanger, fantastic world building, and interesting characters- this story is well worth the read.
Can’t wait to dive into Book #2!
Thank you, Hazel Storm!

The Don is the first book in Her Three Immortals series by Hazel Storm. This clever story has a little bit of everything thrown in to make it an interesting read. Greek mythology, a reverse harem, immortals, and sexy men. This paranormal romance is original and unique and is told by multiple POV’s, which I love. It is a quick read, and you will soon find yourself at the end with a cliff hanger to boot. Noooooooooooooo. I look forward to the next book.
Beware the Don of the Underworld you never know just what you are getting yourself into.

I. AM. HOOKED.
This is the first book of this series and all I can ask myself is WHEN can I get more?! I read it all in a few hours and wanted nothing more than to jump right into the next one. Hazel did a fantastic job writing these characters and their story. Vanessa and her brother are incredibly close, her clients love her, and she has a real talent for hairdressing. She is completely dedicated to finding a cure for her brother when she meets the brothers. Her father had ruined her idea of men up until this point. But what will she choose – indulging in lust/love or the life of her brother? A life for a life. The cliffhanger in this one is rough, but the book is so worth reading!

Vanessa, a young woman struggling with a sick younger brother, is awestruck when her new, sexy , Grey, neighbor moves in across the street. Unexplainably drawn to him, she also finds herself being courted by another man, Raef–who just happens to be Grey’s half brother. Grey promises to heal her brother but at what cost?
This story is a good, quick read. The characters are well developed, and the plot is fantastic. I really enjoyed the changing point of views throughout the chapters. Vanessa is a relatable female protagonist and I was rooting for her until the last page. I can’t wait to read the next installment in the Her Three Immortals series.5/5 stars

Well, this was a hot one!! I should have guessed from the cover but even so! I loved every second of this book and I am so excited to read the rest of the series! It was definitely a quick read for me because once I started I couldn’t out it down. This is definitely up there with my favourite reads of 2021! Vanessa was a great lead character to read about, I really liked her. The three leading men in the story were definitely enjoyable as well!! All of them were very different but all had this pull to Vanessa. I haven’t quite decided who my favourite might be yet! I liked the cliff-hanger and it definitely has me wanting more!!
The Don is a highly recommended read from me!!
The Don by Hazel Storm
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This was my first Hazel Storm novel and my first novel based on Greek Mythology, needless to say, I am hooked on both! While it has 220 pages, The Don felt like a shorter story in all the best ways! When it comes to the character development, plot speed, and world-building, Storm dives straight in to give you an immediately vivid experience from the first page. The story has a quick but well-developed arch that keeps moving without feeling rushed at all and the perfect amount of steam to keep you wanting more. My only head-scratcher came when Raef explained gods to Van, she asked a legitimate question and was given an honest answer, but it didn’t shock her in the least…which it should have unless gods are an accepted part of society in her world…but they weren’t to my knowledge. So that made me wonder, but I decided maybe gods weren’t a complete unknown and went with it. Overall, it is a great quick read, and I CAN NOT wait to read The God, The Bow, and The Box!!
For The Don, Van is my favorite character, she seems real, relatable, genuine, and has some snarky internal dialogue. She is full of love for her family and has a huge heart towards all her salon’s clients, but more than that she is just a genuinely good person that you want to succeed in life. But this is where Storm decided to have some fun! A beautiful heroine with a heart of gold meets three half-brothers who shake up her life completely. The Don of the Underworld, an Angel, and a demi-god of Earth oh my! Grey is sexy, intriguing, and frustrating, Raef is thoughtful, handsome, a true gentleman, and we don’t know a lot about Aroz yet, but a little fat baby cupid has nothing on this tall drink of water! Like I already said, I cannot wait to read The God next because I have to find out what happens between Van and her men! (FYI: So far this is not a menage’ book or even really a reverse harem or really a love triangle…I’m not sure what it is exactly…but I’m loving it!!)

The Don by Hazel Storm is the first book in Her Three Immortals series. This book is a good story that clearly is setting the scene for whatever is going to come next. We get to learn about all the characters in this book and have the story develop slowly and right.
Although this is a genre I enjoy it isn’t one I read very often so it was a joy to pick up this one. This is a new author to me and I enjoyed how she built up the book and the characters. It caught me interest and has held it enough that I will certainly be read in the next book. It was a little bit more tame than I was expecting however it was a good book. I am looking forward to book two.

This was a quick and easy read. It kept me very entertained and if it wasn’t for life I would’ve finished this book in one day. It definitely left me want more. This book ends on a huge cliff hanger and I cannot wait for the second in this series.
Vanessa is a hairdresser that seems to bring out the inner beauty in her clients leaving them with a glow. This book is centered around her and the love she has for her little brother Piper, whom is terminally ill.
We also have the three half brothers Grey, Raif, and Azoz. Grey is the first brother we meet in this book. He is a hard type A person. Next we run into Raif. Raif and Grey have a lot of similarities. Enough that Vanessa’s dreams start to get a little fuzzy. Azoz is the only brother that we get to meet but Vanessa has yet to. The adult scenes were a little mild and fast.
All in all this was a fun read.

Vanessa Mann is a hairdresser extraordinaire. She has the talent of bringing the inner beauty out in others. Unfortunately, she is facing turmoil at every turn. A brother terminally ill, an employment covered in suspicion, a new mysterious neighbor, and a New York billionaire all mixed together to create a suspenseful, romantic, tear jerking journey. Can too many gorgeous men ever be a problem? I am excited to see how the next book continues this story.

Slow burn with a twist on mythology.
I like strong, female leads and interesting love interests each with a personality of their own. The Don by Hazel Storm did not disappoint. The story setting is strong, characters unique and enough action to keep my interest. There were times where I laughed out loud and other times I was huffing in frustration. This is definitely a slow burn – so don’t expect Insta-love or major hook-ups just yet. This book has left a lot to still be discovered – but is a solid first book to set the scene. I can’t wait for book 2.

How far would you go to save a loved one? Would you sign a contract with The Don of the Underworld as a Life for a Life? This book definitely has its steamy moments but there is also a mystery as well to it. This story of Vanessa, whom meets Grey, Raef and Aroz. No doubt they find beauty in Vanessa and she is mortal. Vanessa’s brother, Piper, is sick and all she wants is her brother to live and be healthy, would she make a deal in order for her brother to live? Raef wants to help with a more natural approach but when Vanessa finds out the powers that Grey has….hmmm….Then we have Aroz, I cannot want to find out what he has in store as well. I believe all 3 men are hot as sin no doubt. I am so on Team Raef. I cannot wait to read the other books in the series to find out what happens next. This book for me was hard to put down!!

What a great ride…though it ends on a cliffhanger. Vanessa is a very relatable character. She is a hairdresser that will do anything for her family, especially her 12 old brother who is fighting cancer. Her billionaire father left her family with nothing which has changed her outlook on men. Then she notices Grey across the street talking to her neighbor. She notices something different about him. She just isn’t sure what it is.
On a trip to New York she runs into Raef, who she mistakes as Grey. Similar looks, but definitely different personalities in these two brothers. She starts dreaming about both of them which makes her a tad uncomfortable. Raef turns out to be a perfect gentleman, something she hasn’t really come across before.
I loved the characters in this story and how they interacted. Ending on a cliffhanger, I am ready to jump into the next book, I want to know what happens!!

The Don was a very quick read, it took me a couple of chapters to get into it but once I did I couldn’t put it down. While I am a huge romance lover this book had me even more intrigued because it’s a Greek mythology romance. The Don is the first book in the Her Three Immortals series by Hazel Storm, the chapters were shorter and fast making the book easy to get through. Ms. Storm gives a great scenery setting and wonderful character descriptions, both of which make me look forward to the remaining books in this series. Her female characters are powerful, the male characters intriguing, and all so wonderfully described you won’t know who to root for. So if your looking for a fun, fast read this weekend I highly recommend The Done by Hazel Storm.

All I can say is WOW! This book was a serious page turner that keeps you on the edge of your seat wanting more.
Vanessa Maan is a hard working hairdresser who has a flair for making her client’s inner beauty come to the surface. At home, she has a very sick younger brother who is battling cancer. Vanessa is a very relatable character who you can feel as though you could connect with.
Grey, Don of the underworld, has come to Earth to renegotiate a contract with a human and when he and Vanessa meet, sparks fly. On a trip to see a doctor in New York, Vanessa by chance runs into Grey’s brother Raef. Raef is a billionaire who aside from looking very much like Grey, is also immediately attracted to Vanessa.
Lots of twists and turns in this book and be ready for a cliffhanger at the end of this book. For me that didn’t detract from anything, this was still a great storyline and I will be looking forward to book 2!

The Don, book 1 of Her Three Immortals series by Hazel Storm was a quick read but left me wanting more!
I was not ready for it to end!! I love the multiple point of views from several of the characters.
Vanessa is a hairdresser and loves being able to bring out the inner beauty of her clients. It is what she’s good at. But it could also mean competition to others in the beauty industry.
Grey is The Don of the Underworld and is in town on business. Moving in across the street from Vanessa is just a perk.
Raef is Grey’s half-brother, a very sexy billionaire that is proving to Vanessa that not all financially successful men are A-holes, or are they?
Vanessa has some issues in her home life and just as these interesting men walk into her life her work life starts to suffer as well.
Can they help her? Is she willing to pay the price?
I can’t wait to read the next book in this series!

This was a story that I really enjoyed. It is a captivating read that leaves you wanting more. I love the leading lady Vanessa. I love her determination to save her brother and her drive. She has been burnt by love in the past and is wearing the scars to prove it.
The 3 men we get introduced to in this story are very unique in their own right but they all have one thing in common. They see something special in Vanessa.
Grey is the Don of the underworld. He rules over the dead souls of people who have been bad in their life. He collects the souls and send them to be tortured forever. On his trip to renegotiate a contract he meets Vanessa. He doesn’t know why he’s drawn to her. Her soul is pure so definately not what he’s looking for but the pull won’t go away.
Reaf has lived in the human world and has made his fortune there. He feels the attraction to Vanessa and is determined to prove that not all men are bad like her father.
And finally we have Aroz. He is an angel/cupid. But is he as angelic as he seems.
Vanessa finds her self in the middle of these brothers. All of them have different ideas about what and who she is and all of them have different reasons for being attracted to her but which one will be the right choice. I can’t wait to read the next book in this series.
