I LOVE Katee. She has created a world with such interesting characters. The first 5 chapters have me drooling for more. I love how cynical Cassandra is. I can relate. I love how other characters from the previous books show up. You don’t need their story to enjoy them as characters but it even more fun if you know them from their own books. I can’t wait to find out what happens to Cassandra and Apollo. And judging from the picture at the beginning of the preview I won’t be disappointed. Katee Robert is a must read if you like sexy books with characters you’ll want to be friends with.

Since this is only a preview, I can only comment on what I have read. So far this is a fascinating snippet of the sequel and I'm highly anticipating its release.
Personally, I am slightly biased for most content about Greek Gods (especially about Hades) I go crazy and eat it right up. So far I am liking how the author is taking a new spin on this story and I am trying my best not to theorize.

5 Stars ( I received an e-arc from Net Galley in exchange for an honest review)

I have read all of the Dark Olympus books, Wicked Villain's and a majority of Katee Robert's backlist and I love most of her books. This one is no exception and I am hoping and praying I get approved for the full arc because I have found fake dating/relationship to be one of my favourite tropes. I loved the preview and yet I am cursing myself since I now have to wait until the book comes out or my wish of the full version is granted to me. As well I am absolutely onboard for a plus size female lead and the small glimpse of her relationship with her sister reminds of another aspect I do love in the series. The great Dimitriou sisters dynamics and mostly positive female interactions and relationships (Demeter and the previous Aphrodite not included).

The first five chapter sneak peek of this book was fantastic! I love this series, and this book will be no exception. This appears to tell the story of Apollo and Cassandra - a woman whose family was ostracized by the Thirteen and then killed to prevent them from spilling secrets. Cassandra is sassy and strong. There will be fake dating, spying, and forced proximity in this book. I am especially looking forward to seeing more of Cassandra's spicy attitude and how Apollo handles his secret feelings for her. I love that Cassandra is described as curvy and beautiful - Katee Roberts always nails it with plus sized representation with her characters.

Just the preview of the first 60 pages was not enough! I liked the story of the Cassandra. She has a great back story that sets up for lots of plots. And Apollo and her have a great dynamic. Can’t wait to read the rest of this. I also really like the cover. The colours pop and picture are eye catching as with all of Katee Roberts books

Having read and loved the previous instalments of the Dark Olympus series, I was thrilled for the chance to read this little snippet. I am so happy that this follows Apollo and Cassandra's story, although I was low-key hoping for Zeus and Callisto. So far you can expect some of my absolute favourites, such as fake dating, and forced proximity. I also suspect a grumpy x sunshine trope - fingers crossed.

So far this instalment looks really promising. Super keen to get my hands on the full book!

I am so excited to get my hands on the full edition of Radiant Sin! Katee Robert is one of the best romance/erotica authors I have read. I am so greatful for the opportunity to read a preview of this 4th book of the Dark Olympus series.

Here in Radiant Sin we have Apollo's story with Cassandra. She is a social outcast and he is one of the powerful 13 that run the power-hungry city of Olympus. Olympus is under a threat from outside the boundaries and Apollo needs Cassandra's assistance in gathering intel.

Who doesn't love the fake-relationship troupe. Especially when there is secret heat between the players.

I mean, it's Katee Robert. Of course, it's going to be spectacular. The first five chapters don't even have any of her spicy writing and it was still fun, witty, and classically Dark Olympus. I can't wait to get my hands on the whole book and fully immerse myself in the story of Apollo and Cassandra.

I loved this!! I love the far Olympus series already so I couldn’t wait to read the preview on this and it’s so good!!!

Just read a preview of the first 5 chapters and OMG I want more!!!! I’m drooling at the mouth here with just a little bit of the magic that Katee Robert is a genius at weaving. While, after reading and obsessing over the first 3 books, I wouldn’t have pegged Apollos and Cassandra’s story as the one I wanted next, sometimes you just have to trust the process because I’m dying to see how this book unfolds. Cassandra is a fire cracker not to be messed with and Apollo is another delicious male specimen. So far the plot is just so good and I can’t wait to find out how Olympus is going to survive and this book.

*Thanks to Netgalley and Katee Robert for this little taste of heaven ARC in exchange for an honest review*

Based off of the five chapters, I just KNOW this is going to be so good. I can't wait for the rest of the book!

Thank you SOURCEBOOKS Casablanca and NetGalley for this arc in exchange for my honest review!

I blasted through 60 pages like it was nothing. What the heck? I knew I’d enjoy this - I e read Neon Gods, Electric Idol and Wicked Beauty.

I am loving that Cassandra is a mouthy curvy girl. I love that Roberts writes her chapters in all shapes and colors.

I’m dying and need to the rest of the book. I can’t wait to get more of Apollo’s perspective too - to see is background and where he is coming from.

As a fan of the Dark Olympus series specifically and as a fan of Katee's other work I am so pleased that Radiant Sin is available for preview. These first 5 chapters really set the stage for the book it seems like. As the Dark Olympus series has progressed the politics and scheming have taken the front seat and the excellent spice has taken a back seat. No complaints whatsoever. These chapters set up the problems and their apparent solution so well that I am desperate to know more. I also very much like the difference in inner thoughts between Cassandra and Apollo in their opening chapters . Cassandra is attracted to Apollo but is doing everything to keep it professional and Apollo's chapters opens with him unable to look aware from her gorgeous big ass. It made me laugh out loud and gave us immediate insight into Apollo and his different sides. I absolutely love the inclusion of characters from the other books. We end chapter 5 at Juliette's and we the reader have been there before a few times and it is so comforting. As the world has taken shape and solidified we the reader are really able to connect with characters and the world and how each interacts with the other. My one complaint is that I would like a list of the title names (Zeus, Ares, Athena ect) and then next to them the ACTUAL names of the people who took those titles. I know we don't know everyones name yet, but it is confusing trying to remember two sets of names and their connections to each other and the city. All around, EXTREMELY excited for this release!

Katee Robert is one of my favorite authors and I have loved every book in this series. I am excited to see how she weaves Cassandra and Apollo's story into this larger narrative of Olympus. I already have a great appreciation for a plus-size heroine and a stunningly self-aware hero - especially in this world that Robert has built up in the previous books.
