I was extremely impressed by Katee's style of writing. Having never read her books before, I was intrigued because I have her other book Neon Gods on my tbr list. I absolutely loved the first five chapters of this book! I loved that the main character was a strong willed, curvy girl with an attitude! I was able to quickly relate to her pretty easily. I was expecting it to be a bit smuttier, but the sexual tension is tense! I'm impressed and can't wait to read the completed book!

I received the first 5 chapters of this book’s ARC. I am already HOOKED!!!
I am anxiously awaiting for the release of the entire book on Feb 7th.
I cannot wait to see Apollo & Cassandra’s relationship evolve. Especially with everything going on with Olympus at the moment.

Cannot wait to continue reading this story. So far we are off to a great start!

What an absolutely great opening.

Two people secretly pining for each other and thrown into forced proximity. LOVE IT.

And Apollo appears to be a great guy, a good match for Cassandra as she struggles with how her parents' mistakes pretty much ruined her and her sister's lives.

I adored the chemistry and would love more please! Can't wait to read the entire book.

**I received an advanced reader copy of the preview from the publisher and my opinions in this review are my own.

Amazing start to the next story!!!! The first five chapters have already sucked me in and I’m SO EXCITED to read more. Katee is one of my favorite writers and this is one of her absolute best series.

I have read her other 3 books in this series and can’t wait for the entire book to be released! The modern take on Olympus and its “characters” are a new spin( almost out with the old and in with the new. The spice is nice, for sure, but it’s more than that. There’s a passion, a respect, between the people involved. There’s always an underdog but I don’t mind rooting for them. I like how the characters from the series show up in the other books; I always wonder what happens “in the future” and this series has allowed a small insight to what has happened since we finished their story.

This is my first book in this series. However, it was easy to get into, has an intriguing plot and the first five chapters are a wonderful introduction to what should be an exciting story.
I like the setting and revised version of Greek mythology and can’t wait to find out what happens at the upcoming party, along with the solving of the mystery around Olympus.

In this most recent book in her Dark Olympus series Katee Robert looks into the relationship of Apollo and Cassandra. The story builds on events of the previous book and the world is so well thought out and built up. With so many previous books in the series there is less world building but the character development is still top notch. The smut is this one is light dom /sub with some bondage scenes. I picked this up and read the entire book within two days, and cannot wait for the next one to come out.

I was given an advanced readers copy from the author in exchange for an honest review.

Katee Robert does it again! She introduced us to two main characters who are involved directly and semi indirectly to the Thirteen. I was so intrigued by Cassandra and Apollo's POV's and how their work ethic and friendship and lead to something more. Even though Katee Robert didn't hit us with the Smut right off the bat I am loving the suspense and can't wait to sink my teeth into it as it unfolds.

These intial chapters make me hungry for more, and I can't wait to dig my claws into the rest of the book. Typical for Katee Robert, you can expect sass, grit (especially from the heroine) and the right amount of fan-yourself-hot. I especially adore the strong-willed and sharp-witted heroine, that already kicks a** in these initial chapters but also the representation of plus-size women in romance novels which still is an outrageous novelty. Even early on her confidence shines through brightly, as well as her heroes attraction to her and her attitude. Perfect example that attraction isn't always to the body, but the mind and how you carry yourself.

Short word regarding the hero: I absolutely dig that he isn't the broody bad boy for once, but this sincere guy that just wants to do his job right without the whole clusterfuck of societal gain and scandals in the back of his mind.

Super pumped for this book, totally recommend just from this snippet alone, especially for greek myth fans that want some spice and a different angle /redemtion of the whole Apollo-Cassandra myth.

I’m sorry I didn’t realize this was just a 5
chapter preview. I don’t want to invest my reading time into something with no ending. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity and maybe I will get the chance to read the finished product.

I am immediately drawn to Cassandra’s voice. She reminds me a bit of Pschye and not just that they are both tremendous plus-size representations. Cassandra has that determination and the way she cares for her sister, which reminded me not just of Pschye but her sisters too. Apollo and Cassandra are your classic we both feel things for each other but why bother telling the other person? The tension between them is apparent in the first few chapters, making me very excited to see what happens when the lines between what is fake and what is the real start to blur. I am excited for some fake dating in this world, that just seems natural in the politically cunning world of Olympus. I also love that it is Zeus who pushes them into this fake dating scheme. Even the little bit of him we got here makes me anticipate finally getting our hands on his books, but that isn’t for many instalments now. I loved getting Cassandra’s view of Helen right after we just spent a whole book in Helen’s head. This reminds us, readers, right away that the stakes of this world are optics is everything. How you hold yourself and are perceived makes or breaks your place on this mount. I cannot be more excited to read the rest of this book!

*First five chapters review*
I can’t wait for the full length book. Cassandra is from an outcast family. She works for Apollo and now she must act like she’s more so they can get some information.

I love the story line of this story already and I can not wait for the full book to come in. Katee nows how to draw you in with just a few chapters.

Cassandra is a curvy FMC and I love this! I did not like how at the beginning of chapter 2 Apollo called Cassandra’s butt big.

Have been waiting for this release! The preview is just enough to have you asking more questions and wanting to read more. These novels do not have to be read in order, but I find it easier to understand the world by starting from the beginning. For new readers, they have included a map and tier of the Thirteen which is easy to understand!

I absolutely loved the Preview of Radiant Sin. The Dark Olympus series continues to delight with a fake dating office romance featuring Apollo and Cassandra.

Cassandra’s family was disgraced by the Thirteen. She was able to get a job working as an Executive Assistant to Apollo while caring for her younger sister. When Olympus is under a new threat, Apollo asks Cassandra to go with him to a house party and help uncover the truth.

Cassandra is a great heroine. She is smart, caring, loyal, tough, and incredibly savvy. She also is not afraid to speak her mind. I loved Cassandra’s back story and I hope the truth about her family is uncovered. I’m also really intrigued by Apollo and watching him and Cassandra secretly pine after the other was delicious.

It was fun catching up with characters from past Dark Olympus novels including Psyche, Zeus, Hera, and Ares. I absolutely can’t wait to read the rest of this book and see what happens once Cassandra and Apollo go to the house party and uncover what is really going on.

This is my MOST anticipated book of the year! The Dark Olympus series by Katee Robert is the number one series I’ve read. I was so excited to see this Radiant Sin preview on NetGalley. The Dark Olympus series is a modern day spin on old Greek mythology and Katee tells the stories wonderfully. They are riveting, suspenseful, HOT, funny - and the preview for Radiant Sin looks like it will champion the others without a doubt. A sass mouthed FMC paired with a powerful yet kind MMC… oh the trouble I imagine they’ll get in to together. Thank you for this preview and I look forward to seeing Katee in Dallas on February 7th!

I love the unique take on the world of Olympus. The first 5 chapters in the preview do a great job of hooking you in. I can’t wait for release day to find out where it takes Apollo & Cassandra.

Honestly Katee Robert just never disappoints for me. The first five chapters of Radiant Sin are no different for me. Getting to see the beginning of Cassandra and Apollo’s book has been something I’ve been looking forward to for a while! I’m so ready for the whole book to come out!

5 Chapters was definitely not enough! It will lead you to wanting more. Loved Cassandras attitude and the fact that she rocks her curves! I am looking forward to reading the rest of the book when it comes out.

I was very lucky to get a preview of this book! I could not contain my excitement so of course I had to read the preview ASAP and loved it (I didn't have a doubt!). Katee is an instant buy for me and I am eagerly awaiting the release of this book even more now that I have gotten a taste.

Thanks to @netgalley for the sneak preview of Radiant Sin by Katee Robert! It’s the first 5 chapters and I can already tell I am going to love Cassandra’s & Apollos story. Radiant Sin is released February 7th

Thoughts so far Cassandra is more closed off to the rest of Olympus because of her family’s history. She doesn't seem to let her guard down and prides herself I’m not becoming part of Olympus’s world. She is there to make money so she can make a better life for her & her sister. So far Apollo also seems like he is more focused on doing his job well and also trying to keep his mind off Cassandra. It’s well written like the rest of the Dark Olympus books. I definitely recommend reading them in order as Radiant Sin has already mentioned characters from the previous books.
