Alright readers, find a quiet little spot, grab your
favorite beverage, and prepare for a treat. Stephanie Draven
is a very talented writer, and you will not want to put this
book down. When you open POISONED KISSES, you are entering
the rich world of mythical War Gods and their offspring,
action, romance, and steaming scenes between two people you
pull for. You will hope they get their happy ending and find
that person who is their other half.
Stephanie Draven has written a beautiful story that I
definitely recommend (and, yes, I will be reading the next
one as well!). As an added bonus, you will find a short
story at the end of the book. Wow, it is better than chocolate!
In POISONED KISSES, we meet Kyra, the daughter of the war
god Ares. Born into darkness, she is on a mission to destroy
what her father feeds on... war. Kyra is a heroine with
attitude, searching for meaning and a true purpose for her
life. Kyra is a nymph of the Underworld, a former lampade
for Hecate. She is complicated, emotionally flawed,
kick-butt in a fight, and able to give and enjoy carnal
pleasure.
Her purpose is to destroy Marco Kaisiris, a
shape-shifting hydra arms dealer. The many atrocities he has
witnessed have turned him into a hydra, a being capable of
taking on the identities of those who have harmed him.
Marco's magnetism, his raw sexuality, and voice
may be Kyra's undoing. Marco is damaged, complicated, and
emotionally flawed. He is on his own mission for a
cause he believes in, never knowing that the war gods are after
him for their own evil plans. Their first meeting is hot,
sexy, and full of lies. Action, war, poisoned blood, and two
very complicated people you will fall in love with make
POISONED KISSES a wonderfully told story. Stephanie Draven
is fearless in her writing. She draws you in, leaving you at
the crest of the wave wanting more.
Stephanie Draven has a voice that is smooth. The end of
the book comes much to soon. Draven weaves a story with a
different take on Greek mythology by including lots of
action and a sexual tension that will leave you wishing you
could be Kyra. This book has everything, and I hope she has
many more stories for us. She has a new twist on the
paranormal, and I greatly enjoyed it. This will be the book
you tell your friends about. You will be waiting
impatiently for the next one. Stephanie was very kind in
sending me POISONED KISSES to read and review before it was
released to everyone. Thank you, Stephanie!
Daughter of the war god Ares, Kyra had been born into
darkness—a darkness she'd vowed to annihilate. Just as she'd
destroy the notorious Greek arms dealer Marco Kaisiris for
feeding the bloodlust she despised. She'd use her nymph's
carnal powers to seduce him, then slay him. But Kyra wasn't
prepared for Marco's secret weapon.
For millennia Kyra had avoided mortal men, but she couldn't
resist Marco's magnetism, his raw sexuality. Time and again
his sculpted body took her to heights to which only the gods
soared. That he was a shape-shifting hydra she could
forgive, but not his one fatal flaw—his poisoned blood could
kill her. Kyra had fallen for the only being who could
destroy her…. Yet how could she spend eternity without him?
