Fresh Fiction Review

Romance Paranormal

Although a modern day spa might seem like an innocuous place for magic and tradition, the Seven Sisters Spa houses and is run by the unusual Ionian priestesses, women who keep to themselves and their own ways in order to maintain the balance of the universe. They do not have emotional relationships with men, only brief physical interludes, and they steer clear of their former allies, the Minot warriors.

Sophia Thalia has always believed this way was the only way, that is, until she meets Jason Tyron, a man who has attempted to use his mother's Ionian teachings to overcome the curse of the Minot lineage, particularly those connected to vice, anger, and revenge. However, the Ionian faults connect to their dislike for change, so Jason and Sophia have to surmount tradition and secrecy for a chance at happiness.

A fast-paced and clever work, DARK WARRIOR serves as a metaphor for anyone who has decided to battle nature with nurture or attempted to forge a new path. Steamy and sweet, the work is an enjoyable tale that also encourages readers to think about their own abilities to overcome paths that seem inflexible in their own lives.

SUMMARY

In the first century BC, Ionian Priestesses made a bargain with cursed warriors called the Minot. When the truce fell apart, the Minot remained cursed, and the Ionians remained mistrustful of men. In modern-day Arizona, Jason Tyrone, son of a Minot and an outcast Ionian, has come to reclaim his heritage.

At the Seven Sisters Spa, where the Ionian women live and hide their true identity, Jason falls in love with the beautiful Sophia Thalia-and their passion will re-ignite a conflict that could destroy the Ionians.
