A hard one to love...

I'm not going to change my rating, but listening to this one reminded me how much I BLOODY HATED APOLLO...for awhile. Goh blimey, I wanted to kick him in the ding ding. Egotistical, self-serving, arrogant DOUCHEWAFFLE, is being nice. He broke my heart...

Good thing he's REALLY good at...things. Sexy things. REALLY good, so good I was squirming as I listened.

I'm not sure if this was the most heart-wrenching story KA has written, but it knocked me about a bit. You start a book and the heroine is in a bad situation...who then get swept off to another bad situation, to be dumped and left alone, ummm...I gave this one 5 stars and raved about KA's legend status?

I'm famous for finishing on a high and forgetting all the bad bits. Oh boy, it did not take me long to remember the bad bits and at times I had to brace for impact.

Now, I remember why this is one of the ONLY KA books that I haven't re-read numerous times. I just hate seeing the hero act like a douchewaffle MORE THAN ONCE.

Anyways, Apollo comes good, saves the heroine and leaves Maddie (and me) with a big goofy smile on my face.

Hard one to listen to but the journey left me satisfied. The narrator does a marvellous job. Her voice is easy to listen to and I had no problems telling when the characters changed.

I survived but I think I'll take a wee break from the Fantasyland series...for now.

Kristen Ashley is a legend!!

I absolutely loved this story. Just before I started reading Broken Dove I read the first three again and it was an epic way to enjoy this addition to the series.

I wasn't sure I could love Apollo after reading the teaser chapters released ages ago, but I knew KA would turn me around.

This book had everything...action, adventure, fun and lots and lots of sexy bits.

I love this series and I am very excited to hear there will be at least one more.

Thanks Ms Ashley...LOVE YOUR WORK!!!!
