This was so little of the book but I just know Apollo is a Cassandra simp (as if it's not obvious) and I NEED MORE IMMEDIATELY!!!!

I absolutely love this series, it’s a breathe of fresh air when as a reader we get to find more out about the other gods and goddesses of Olympus rather than just the normal Zeus and Hades. I enjoy that Apollo of all people is like you know what screw them. I can’t wait to get my hands on a physical copy for my personal library. It’s definitely one I will go back to and read over and over.

Katee Robert never disappoints, and with a workplace romance?? I'm soooo here for it. Cassandra has a fiery personality that reminds me a bit of Persephone in Neon Gods, and with Apollo's more soft-spoken attitude, I just KNOW the spice is going to be hot. I've loved everything I've read Katee Robert, and I know this one won't disappoint as well.

Giving us this little preview was almost cruel... I CANNOT wait for this to come out in its entirety. Even with just 5 chapters, I am already hooked. I am thrilled to get all of Cassandra and Apollo's story and I am really all here for a fake dating trope. January can't come soon enough!

I will automatically read any new installment in the Dark Olympus series. Katee Robert knows what her audience wants and she delivers every time!

I have read many books by the author and I’ve also read two of the previous installments in this series. I had no initial attachment to the characters, so when I recommend everyone read this, you know it comes from a place of sincerity.
I had forgot what getting sucked into this universe felt like and, despite it only being the first 5 chapters, I got really into the story/plot.
I cannot wait to see what it’ll all turn out like and am particularly partial to a good fake dating.

Every time one of the Dark Olympus books comes out I think it can’t be better than the last AND YET here we are. I am just so in love with the premise of this series and can’t wait to read the rest of Radiant Sin. Katee Robert never disappoints.

After not a whole lot of plot advancement past the naming of a new Ares in Wicked Beauty I can already tell we are going to be hitting the ground RUNNING in this installment!!

Cassandra and Apollo already have my attention with their chemistry and the undercover spies meets FAKE DATING tropes. I cannot WAIT to see where this book goes from here.

Thank you so much to Sourcebooks and NetGalley for a peek at the first 5 chapters of this book.

Another strong start in a very fun series. Excited to see how this dynamic goes, we already have a bit of a grumpy sunshine but situation and it is FUN. Katee Robert remains a predictable and reliable writer. If you’ve liked the others in this series, you’ll love this preview.

Thank you NetGalley for a special preview! Katee Robert is back again to deliver another deliciously spicy extension of the Dark Olympus series. Just five chapters and I’m already hooked and in love with Cassandra. The character development and drama of being a member of the fallen house is sure to satisfy every craving. I can’t wait to see what else happens in this one.

Honestly Katee Robert can do no wrong. Her books are always SO hot and I absolutely love that she's been doing this series of Greek mythology retellings. What more could I possibly want?? This one looks just as good as the rest of the series and I cannot wait for the full book!

UGH so good! I have nothing to say except that I will be purchasing as soon as it's released in stores! If you enjoyed the rest of the series, this stays just as great.

An excellent sneak peek to this book. I cannot wait for this next addition to this series. Apollo and Cassandra are going to be a hoot. Just from that sneak peek we get a snarky Cassandra who doesn’t care who you are, she has no problem speaking her mind. She has an attraction to Apollo but knows better to do anything about it, especially that he is her boss. And for Apollo, he is the few in the city who is loyal and good and cares for Cassandra. But knows he can’t cross the line of boss and employee relationship. That is until they are put in a position that forces them to act like a couple for the sake of getting information they need to save Olympus. Can’t wait for this story.

Mutual secret pining with dual POV's? Forbidden romance? How could I resist!
This book starts of really well. I haven't read the other books in the series, but it does what I imagine is a good refresher for those who may have forgotten the worldbuilding, which is quite intriguing.
The POV's are well written and distinct, and I think i would enjoy reading this book.
I would absolutely keep reading.

I need more lol! These first few chapters have me very excited for the rest of the book. I like Cassandra's attitude. This seems like a grumpy/sunshine book but reverse. Definitely getting this book when it comes out.

Katee Robert is at it again with her new book out Feb 7th of next year – just in time for Valentine’s day! I was given a preview of Radiant Sin, the next book in the World of Dark Olympus Series – and oh boy I can’t wait for the rest of it. I’m working on Neon Gods now and I just finished Electric Idol. So hot.

Cassandra is a disgraced member of a fallen house, but Apollo has taken her in and she works as his assistant. He pays her well, but she still doesn’t have enough to escape Olympus, until one night Zeus and Apollo propose a favor in exchange for enough for her to be free. Cassandra can’t help but take the money from Zeus, even if it does mean attending a dangerous party on Apollo’s arm. As they pursue their fake relationship danger seems to come from nowhere and not only are Cassandra and Apollo in danger – but the very heart of Olympus itself. Will they be able to escape this unscathed?

I cannot wait to keep reading more from this one! I’m not one for series, but ya know, for Katee Robert I will make an exception. Her writing just makes me want to come back and beg for more! Thanks to @netgalley and the publisher, Sourcebooks Casablanca, @sourcebookscasa, for my advanced preview e-arc of this steamy erotic romance.

Katee Robert does it again. I am so excited to hear Apollo & Cassandra's story. Fake Dating with real feelings from both unwitting characters. Things are going heat up. I can't wait to read the rest.

Oh wow I really enjoyed these first 5 chapters! It gave me a great sense about where the story was going and I can’t wait for the full release in February!

I’ve read every book in this series and have enjoyed them so far. This book is no exception. I love this noir, diverse universe Katee Robert has created with myths that many have heard and are used to. She’s created a vibrant new world that is inclusive, body positive, and overwhelmingly intriguing.

Cassandra... I just want to meet her. I was trying hard to just read three chapters and wait but then I finished the five chapters in one go. Now I just want the whole book right away.

*A tiny spoiler from the preview*

If I pressured Cassandra, who’s already suffered at Olympus’s hands… Fuck. - Apollo

Cassandra loathes the members of the Thirteen. All except one. Apollo. Apollo is secretly lusting over his co-worker Cassandra, and after Zeus tasks him to visit a week long party with Minos, Apollo couldn't think of anyone else to take along with him. Cass reluctantly agrees, though there is a catch - after the party, she is gifted with enough money and free passage to leave Olympus with her sister Alexandra.

Cassandra is wonderful, protective and such a strong character. So far she would be my favourite of the women we have met so far in the Dark Olympus series. There is the perfect amount of banter and respect between the two to make them such a believable coupling. Its great to be getting more and more information on Olympus and the Thirteen - I can't wait to keep diving deeper into this series.
