I have never read anything by this author, this was surprisingly good. Well written, and am looking forward to checking out more of her work.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher, I am voluntarily providing my honest review.

Naia is a siren, literally! Who is working for a creep at a strip club, but she is a singer not a stripper. The owner of the strip club blackmails her into spying on the other local nightclub. Naia has no idea that it is owned by the very handsome vampire named Cortez. Will Cortez be able to forgive Naia? Will they come together after all the betrayal, and secrets? It was a great paranormal story with plenty of hot steaminess to keep you wanting more. I am voluntarily leaving my honest review after reading this arc.

A woman with a voice who can seduce and lure men to their death. This immediately captures my attention as I love to read all mythical water related creatures. My first intro into the Creatures of Darkness series, this is a great one. I'm hooked within the first few pages of this book. I like Naia. She is a determined sister who is loyal to her brother and will do anything to save him. This places her in a difficult predicament. She needs to find a job with Cortez. For readers who have read the first three books in this series, they will have met Cortez briefly. This book can be read as a standalone as it contains nothing to further Coraline's story in the first three books.

In this fourth book, Ms. Fay's writing is improved. I noticed the difference in this story as it is more tightly written with more plot and character development. There is still a good amount of sexy time. The focus is instead on Naia and her goal to earn enough money to pay their debts. What she doesn't know is how she is being used as a pawn. This story had two plots going at once which I enjoyed. I won't say I was shocked by the second underlying thread. I will say I was pleasantly surprised how all the threads came together into a complete ending. Learning more about this world and the how the supernatural creatures interact helped make this more rich. I really enjoyed the Siren element. Ms. Fay did an excellent job of blending the needs of a siren into Naia's character.

From an erotic standpoint, Ms. Fay can crank up the heat. The sexual chemistry between Naia and Cortez is smoking hot. Their sexual interludes are delicious and just a spicy enough to capture my jaded attention. There is always a bit of dominance play when it comes to vampires and it works quite well in this story. This paranormal romance is recommended to erotic readers who enjoy watching the sparks fly between a siren and her vampire.

Such an amazing story. Kiersten Fay a new author to me never heard of her but the cover and title drew me.

Character personalities on point with the storyline. Both the story and its characters full of life.

Family sticks together no matter what Nadi and Cole only have each other and when a gambling debt gets time to pay, Nadi is determined to get the job done.

I really liked the "Vampire" story a typical but told in a different way. Cortez has his own set of rules and has no intention on budging. Nadi is about to shake up his little world.

Great cover, great scenes, hot and fan-worthy sexy stuff. Toss in a bit of danger and you got yourself fab story. Enjoy

Keeping His Siren is part of Kiersten Fay’s Creatures of Darkness series. Naia is a siren. A mythical being with a voice that can enthral any man. She has been hired to spy on Cortez, one of the oldest and most powerful vampires there is but from the very first she feels something for him. An attraction that is reciprocated by Cortez but how will he react when he finds out Naia’s real reason for wanting to sing in his club.

I liked this book but I didn’t love it. I felt that there was a lot left unexplained such as exactly what happened to cause the estrangement between Cortez and his sire. I realise this book is part of a series and as such, this might be covered more fully in a later book but it was the same with what happened between Cortez and Dante which, to my mind, is relevant to the story but isn’t really gone into in any depth. I also felt there was something missing when Cortez finds out that Naia is a siren but doesn’t seem to question it. I did love the secondary characters at Ever Nights and will be reading more from this series to see what’s in store for them.

This book was really good... I didn't think it would turn out the way that it did. I can wait to read the next one. The author did great!

Hell of a sweet and sexy paranormal romance, with some suspense and even some mystery. It is like sugar-kink romance with great chemistry between main characters. He is super rich and handsome and she is beautiful siren trying to save her brother. I liked them both and they were good together despite some ups and downs. I would like to know more about her siren. Naia's personality was fun and I liked how she embraced their relationship with both hands. The plot was predictable but sweet nonetheless.

Fantastic, I loved every page! This author has been a complete joy to discover. The storyline, characters, witty himor, sexy hot scenes and the overall flow of the book, from start to finish had me completely captivated!

A uniquely written paranormal romance. I enjoyed the story from the beginning. Good solid romance and plot.

This book blew me away, and I don't typically even read anything remotely "post-apocalyptic" in nature! The paranormal romance and smutty elements had me completely obsessed with finishing this book, even though I lost some sleep to finish it in one sitting.

Naia is a girl who loves to sing and has the paranormal powers to really make it work to her advantage. She's in a bit of bind for cash and cannot turn down an offer from her boss to go spy on another vampire club owner. Said club owner, Cortez, is immediately smitten with the mystery girl who seems to be the answer to his dreams. There's a bit of cat and mouse game but, damn, the chemistry! So much smutty goodness follows!

There's, of course, lots of secrets that get in the way of these two, and some bad stuff ends up happening, but this vampire/paranormal/romance storyline was really great. It made me worry that I was diving into this series at book number 4, but it looks like we start fresh here and I was able to catch on without problem. If you're looking for some steamy paranormal read, look no further!

4.5 stars
This book is the 4th in a series, but it can be read as a standalone. I had not previously read any of the other books in this series, but after flying through this one, I have purchased the first and second books and added book 3 to my wish list once I complete the first 2!

Where to start?! This book seemed to have it all --- vampires, mystery/suspense, humor, steamy goodness, alpha male, sassy female... and the chemistry between the two (Cortez & Naia) was volatile from the start --- hot, hot, hot! At first, Cortez comes across heavy handed and annoyed me, but I warmed up to him over the course of the book, especially when he clearly started to fall for Naia. The story is written in 3rd person throughout, but the reader experiences it from Naia's POV - that is one thing I'd change about it - I like to have a sense for what's going through the male mc's mind at times. But overall, the delivery was satisfying.

Overall, a great flow; hot scenes; a mystery to keep the reader hooked; some appropriate humor interspersed throughout; and a sweet HEA.

This was not the best story so far for me in the creatures of Darkness series but I still enjoyed it. It was good to read about Cortez and Naia story since I saw them poping in the Vampire's Masquerade ( that was my first book in the series and I absolutely loved it). The heat level in this book is scorching hot if you like your books very very steamy.
Thanks Netgalley and the publisher for this copy. The thoughts and opinions are all mine.

Cortez seems like a hot vampire! What is not to love about that!!! Naia and Cole have depended on each other since there mom disappeared years ago. Trying to protect her brother she takes a job from Dante her vampire boss. Trying to find a way to get her brother out of his gambling debt she goes to Cortez's club. Sparks fly and things of course happen. Naia is not human and has to make sacrifices for her brother. This is a steamy read with lots of drama Inbetween. I will read the next in this series and the next and if course the next!! You get my drift!!!

If you want a paranormal romance that's a bit different then perhaps this offering will tick all your boxes. I can honestly say I loved it even if at times I did want perhaps a touch more information about Naia and her inner Siren. She's always been there to protect her brother but he's got himself in so much trouble that only a shady deal with a Vampire can help him or can it ? Naia might have started out trying to get a singing job whilst spying on Cortez but the instant, pulsating attraction they share pretty soon leads her away from everything she knows to a place where her Siren might take control !
This story had everything I wanted romance, suspense and even some mystery. I was blown away by the passion this couple shared and like Naia at times I felt very confused by Cortez. It's part of a series so perhaps the other stories might answer any questions I'm left with but for now I can say there's a happy ending so what more could I ask for ?
This is a voluntary take on a book I requested from Netgalley and my thoughts and comments are honest and I believe fair

This is a voluntary review of an advanced copy.

This book had it all - paranormal, romance, intrigue, betrayal,and a great HEA! You just know that things are not going to end well for Naia who is sent to spy on Cortez, a vampire. When she falls for him, she knows that she can't continue to spy on him.

Unfortunately, he finds out and their storybook romance goes down in flames. I loved that she is so determined to get her man back and works to drive him crazy with desire!

I have only read a few of the books in this series and have liked both of them. The chemistry between the couples is hot and it is great to watch them fall ofr each other. Looking forward to another book in this series.

A delicious hint of Fifty and Twilight rolled into one steamy entree, Keeping His Siren was hard to put down. Naia is sassy and sarcastic while Cortez is dominant and actually sweet, and I really didn’t want their story to end. This is my first book by Fay, whose voice is playful, and writing engaging, but it certainly won’t be my last!

Thank you Netgalley for providing this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This was another quick, shifter romance by Fay. Not her best yet but with her usual steamy love scenes and intoxicating heroes. I liked that our heroine is a strong, loyal woman who entices the hero and makes him feel and become more than he's been. Great read.

I've received a ARC from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

Novel was longer than it should've been to be honest and nothing stands out. I did enjoy the supernatural element of the romance with the vampire and siren catching feelings but that's pretty much as exiting as it gets. The romance in my opinion was lackluster but the erotica scenes made up for it.
