In order to save a powerful Egyptian goddess, two men must fall in love with her. Valenarian is a vengeance demon that three thousand years ago was trapped by her lover Dimitri, was then reformed and has since been serving the goddess Aphrodite. But in three thousand years, both Dimitri, a demi-god tiger shifter, and Valenarian are still in love with each other. Leon, a Cajun ex-army medic is also falling for Val. But the gods never believed Val could be reformed and seek to destroy her. Can Leon and Dimitri save her or will they be her downfall?

This is the second book in this series and it does a great job of keeping the heat up just like the first book did. This story is intriguing, full of complex characters, and it is also very entertaining and full of smoking hot sex scenes. This book is a wonderful mixture of so many wonderful things and I had no problem at all with it holding my interest until the very end. Valenarian and Dimitri’s past makes for any interaction between them to be very explosive and potentially dangerous to those around them. This is where Leon comes into the picture. Now if you do not care for sexual relationships between men, you may not want to read this book. While it is not the main relationship and does not take center stage in this book, it is still a very important part of the story. In order to save Val, Dimitri and Leon must teach her to control her inner demon or Aphrodite will be forced to kill her. That’s if the other greek gods don’t interfere first. This story is fantastic. Danger surrounds them at every turn. There are numerous side stories throughout the book and the support characters are phenomenal. This second installment in the series is sure to please any readers that enjoy books full of sexual heat, intriguing characters, mythology, and so much more.
