Keeper of secrets, master of his shining realm…and the only man I am powerless to deny.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n *A scorchingly hot modern retelling of Apollo and Cassandra that’s as sinful as it is sweet.*<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n As a disgraced member of a fallen house, Cassandra Gataki has seen firsthand what comes from trusting the venomous Thirteen. But when the maddeningly gorgeous and kind Apollo asks her to go undercover as his plus-one at a week-long party hosted by a dangerous new power player…Cassandra reluctantly agrees to have his back.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n On one condition: when it’s all over, and Apollo has the ammunition he needs to protect Olympus, she and her sister will be allowed to leave. For good.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n Apollo may be the city’s official spymaster, but it’s his ability to inspire others that keeps him at the top. Despite what the rest of Olympus says, there’s no one he trusts more than Cassandra. Yet even as their fake relationship takes a wicked turn for the scaldingly hot, a very real danger surfaces… threatening not only Cassandra and Apollo, but the very heart of Olympus itself.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n KR has done it again. I have a hard time believing that her Dark Olympus books are going to get even better and then she exceeds my expectations again. I didn\u2019t think I could love her books more and then I read Radiant Sin.<\/span><\/p>\n I\u2019m always a sucker for fake dating and angst, but holy crap this book just did it for me. The way that KR crafts her characters is just so fabulous. She adds layers of depth to their characterization and their story and I am just so hooked. I loved Cassandra and Apollo\u2019s relationship and the romance that built throughout the book. I really didn\u2019t think I could love anyone more than Psyche and Eros, but I\u2019m thoroughly in love with both Apollo and Cassandra. They\u2019re both so soft for each other and they\u2019re so stubborn about admitting their feelings. I loved them so much.<\/span><\/p>\n Ugh but let\u2019s talk about how their \ud83c\udf36\ufe0f tensionnnn! Someone please comment below with your thoughts because I have SO MANY! Too many for a spoiler free review. I LOVED Apollo. He was so hot; and ugh, Cassandra! She was also SO HOT! I loved the dynamic explored in this book. Probably too much, but I\u2019m a sucker for Apollo. I couldn\u2019t get over it. I\u2019m still not over how hot he was.<\/span><\/p>\n Of all the Dark Olympus couples and groups, who is your favorite? I really think that Radiant Sin & Cassandra x Apollo is my favorite, but I really think Cruel Seduction may surpass it later this year.<\/span><\/p>\n Also who is going to the Cruel Seduction tour later this year? I was going to go to the RS tour, but promptly bought a ticket to the CS tour when it was cancelled. I\u2019m so excited \ud83e\udd70<\/span><\/p>\n Happy reading, friends!<\/span><\/p>\n Olivia<\/span><\/p>\n Liv the Book Nerd<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n Twitter<\/span><\/a>\u00a0\/\/<\/b>\u00a0<\/span>Instagram<\/span><\/a>\u00a0\/\/<\/b><\/span>\u00a0<\/b>Tumblr<\/span><\/a><\/span>\u00a0\/\/<\/b>\u00a0<\/span>Goodreads<\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/span>\/\/<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>YouTube<\/span><\/a>\u00a0\/\/<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>Bloglovin<\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\/\/<\/b>\u00a0<\/span>Book Depository Affiliate Code<\/a>\u00a0<\/span>\/\/<\/b>\u00a0<\/span>Book of the Month affiliate link<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\nSynopsis:<\/span><\/h2>\n
