Sweet Obsession

Dark Olympus, Book 8

De: Katee Robert

Narrado por: Alex Moorcock, Will Watt

He was mine to protect. Mine to adore. Mine to lose forever.

A scorchingly hot modern retelling of Poseidon and Icarus.

Icarus may not have flown particularly close to the sun, but he has fallen… right into the rough hands of Olympus's own Poseidon. Being held captive by the gentle giant wouldn't be so bad if Olympus wasn't on the eve of destruction… or if Poseidon stopped looking at him with those irresistibly stormy eyes.

Poseidon doesn't have time to babysit his increasingly bratty prisoner, but he has no choice: Olympus is officially at war, and someone has to keep their best bargaining chip out of harm's way. The thing is, the longer Poseidon is with Icarus, the more he starts to care for his sworn enemy… and the more he realizes that Icarus isn't the villain he's been made out to be. There's a warmth to him, a vulnerability, that Poseidon finds difficult to ignore or deny.

Now with Circe and the Aeaens at the gate and Olympus a hair's breadth away from falling, Poseidon will have to make a difficult choice: about himself, about his allegiances, and about the man who woke his heart from its long slumber only to threaten to break it for good…

Will Watt makes this whole book!

He is now officially one of my favorite male narrators! Everything he did was just *chef’s kiss*

The quality of her writing just keeps getting better

I love this storyline. Her writing is high quality, sensitive, sensual and intuitive. This rendition of the tale of Icarus and Poseidon is charming, heartfelt and steamy. Highly recommend if you love this authors other books.

Stunned yet again

This book like all of this series is never a disappointment. Love love love. The story line is beautiful and the performance was astonishing.

The Best Yet!

I wasn’t sure what to expect going in but oh my this was beautiful and I think it may be my favorite now.

Sweet Obsession

Icarus has fallen right into the hands of Poseidon while trying to give his sister time to escape Olympus. Being held captive by Poseidon, the gentle giant wouldn’t be bad if he would stop looking at him with those irresistibly stormy eyes.

Poseidon doesn’t have time to watch over Icarus, especially since the barrier is down, Circe is waiting in the sea ready to attack and the Thirteen can’t agree and unite for the better of the city. Now, he will have to make a difficult decision about himself, about his allegiances, and about the man who woke his heart from its long slumber only to threaten to break it for good.

I have so been looking forward to the continuation of this series. This one picks up right where Dark Restraint left off. This was a very fast read. I couldn’t seem to put it down as I wanted to know what was going to happen with the war. Getting to know more about Poseidon was great since he has been on the outside of things happening in Olympus thus far. Even though Icarus and Poseidon’s connection started out as a way of gaining knowledge and escaping for Icarus…until it turned into much more. While this story only takes place in the span of a week, a lot happens.

This is book eight in the Dark Olympus series. I have really enjoyed this whole series and would recommend it! I honestly can’t wait to read the rest of the series. Best read in order.

MM Story with a HEA

Great Story love to see Poseidon get his Story The love between Icarus and him was fun see grow from Enemies to so much more enjoyed it

Great performances!

I love this series even more with every new installment. And the narrators performances were perfect!

Cool

I think this has been my least favorite of the series but overall a good read.

Repetitive and nothing new to the storyline

This book was so hard to get through because of the characters going back and forth over the same argument every little while. I endured it because I thought there would be new information for the overall conflict of this series but no, it’s a waste of time. Also, I appreciate the inclusion of all people and pronouns.
