My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love all things Greek mythology so as I stumbled upon this book I knew I had to give it a shot. What a great decision that turned out to be because this series is nothing short of amazing. The characters are well thought out and the writing makes you feel as though you are a part of the story, almost as though you are with Evan through every obstacle he faces.

This third and final book in this series is a bit of a bittersweet read because honestly I didn’t want the adventure to end. In this book Evan loses his memories and therefore forgets about the God’s quest. This leads to not only memories to be tested but loyalties and where they lie. Will Evan complete this quest and finally earn what has been promised by Zeus? Or are the other gifts that have been offered too great to pass up on?

While this can be read as a stand alone book, as the author does a fantastic job of recapping the previous books. The journey is far different and much more interesting if you start at the beginning with Evan in book one. Overall, I am so glad I ran across this series and am equally sad that this journey has ended. I can’t wait to see what else this author might have on the table because the writing was fantastic and I bet whatever is produced next will be just as amazing!

The Labyrinthine Journey (Servant of the Gods Book 2) by Luciana Cavallaro – Review by Vanessa Watts

The Labyrinthine Journey (Servant of the Gods, #2)The Labyrinthine Journey by Luciana Cavallaro
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is book two in the “Servant of the Gods” series and once again follows Evan, a 21st century architect, who finds himself transported back to Ancient Greece and thrust upon a quest to save the Gods. Evan, who has already found one relic, must continue his quest to locate the second relic to prevent the extinction of the Greek Gods. During this quest he must face inconceivable dangers including mythical creatures, warriors, and sorcery. While trying to face the fact that Zues is his father and trying to uncover just what role he must play in the success of this mortal battle. Can Evan find the second relic and move one step closer to returning to his 21st century life?

I absolutely have fallen in love with this author’s writing style and the fact that she brings you up to speed with what happened in the first book in case you haven’t read it yet or it’s been a while and need a refresher. This can be read as a standalone book but after reading this review I hope you’ll go pick up the first book first and follow Evan on his journey from the very beginning. It is well worth it in my opinion as this series has quickly become a favorite of mine.

Faultless Love (The Bennetts of Langston Falls Book 1) by KG Fletcher – Review by Vanessa Watts

Faultless Love (The Bennetts of Langston Falls, #1)Faultless Love by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the perfect time of year for a read like this. Who doesn’t love a second chance romance plus add a Christmas tree farm that make it perfect reading on a cool night.

Teddy ends up getting entangled with the law and serving a prison sentence that eventually leads to his parole and essentially working on his Christmas tree farm at his family home as a condition of that parole. Meanwhile, Robyn, the girl he loved, dropped law school when realizing that justice is not always served to the guilty. Teddy believes him and Robyn are over until a happenstance chance when he walks into her florist shop and sparks still fly between the two. Can their love survive when outside forces seem to want to pull them apart? Will the past forever be a part of their relationship or can they truly get their happily ever after?

This is a wonderful romance book that has all the chemistry and steamy scenes you could hope for. Seriously grab this book, with a blanket, drinking some warm drink and that is the perfect setting to jump into someone else’s world.
