Katee Robert never misses! The Dark Olympus series has sucked me in & this might be my favorite one to date.

I'm back again to fan-girl over Katee.
(Let's pretend to be surprised lol)
A fake relationship between Apollo and Cassandra was exactly what the doctor ordered. Her reluctance and his "down-bad" approach to their relationship made the angst and tension in this book WILD.
I loved them!

Very solid beginning! So far I like what’s happening and how Cassandra and Apollo are dancing around their feelings for each other. I can tell there’s more than meets the eye with these two and I’m excited to continue on!

I received the preview of this book (chapters 1-5). As someone who has read others in the Neon Gods series, and other works by Katee Robert, I was excited to start this book preview! I do not typically read this series back to back, so I do appreciate the reminders in how the thirteen is structured. One thing I always enjoy about Katee's writing is her ability to provide a simple plot alongside the romance story.
This preview was a great opening! So far I am loving the representation of curvy women! Seems to be a growing trend in her writing. I’m also loving all the different plots and tropes these first chapters are setting up. This is definitely one I will continue to read!
I have not finished the book yet, so this star rating is a placeholder until I complete it.

Well, I couldn't download this preview from Netgalley; every time I tried, I got an unreadable format. But since that time, I've bought and read this book, and I really enjoyed it. Robert makes a welcome return to a M/F couple after more complex arrangements, and I found both Apollo and Cassandra to be among the more likable people in the challenging world that is Olympus. It also moves the overarching story forward, which is good.
But really, Netgalley, if I report to you that I couldn't open the file in any app/tool that I used, it really shouldn't count against my response percentage. So let's see what this does!

I love Katee’s Dark Olympus series and I’m excited to dive into this preview for Apollo and Cassandra’s story. Katee’s world building and characters always have so much depth. I can’t get enough.

Loved it, couldn't wait to get my hands on the whole book.
This is part of a series, can be read as a standalone but in order to get the full richness of the story and plot its best to start from the very beginning.

I enjoyed this book very much despite the original myth suggests Cassandra and Apollo were enemies. It was nice and refreshing story.
The plot setting was okay; two long-term business colleagues - the boss & his assistant have forbidden but unstoppable attraction to each other. It is convenient enough that both Apollo and Cassandra are set to a tricky task by Zeus: to go to the party organised by a mysterious newbie Minos and find out his intentions. Easy to say, but both Apollo and Cassandra have to pretend to be a couple for a week as the invitation to Apollo demands to bring his plus one.
I enjoyed this story, especially the channeling concept of Cassandra being a person who sees the truth unlike others. She is almost like Cassandra from Troy who gave multiple warnings but always been ignored. Interesting enough that author paired Apollo and Cassandra successfully, unlike the original myth where Cassandra rejected the god and was punished for that. I don’t know, maybe because I am familiar with the original story, I can’t pair Apollo and Cassandra in my mind, lol, but the attempt was okay.

Katee Roberts is back at it again, and this time it’s concerning Apollo and Cassandra. Cassandra is from a disgraced family, is crotchety, fiercely protective of her sister, and doesn’t love charity. Apollo is a caring, intelligent, rich member of olympus’ thirteen. What happens when something dangerous is lurking and needs to be found out, a fake relationship. I can only assume how this book will end, but I need more. Katee Roberts has truly outdone herself with this series.

As always, Katee Robert brings the heat, the passion, the drama, and the HEA.
I originally heard about Neon Gods on Bookstagram last year, and just happened to see it while out shopping, picked it up, and I have never looked back. I have just knocked this series out as quickly as I could. I didn't know much about Greek mythology before this series, really just the basics, but I now love learning about it, to see the parallels with the original story and the retelling.
I don't even have to ask about the spice when it comes to Katee Robert. I know the spice will be there and that it will go beyond my wildest imagination.
Basically, what I am saying is.... read the Olympus series and thank me later if you like spice.

While I only got a preview of this book I did go purchase this myself and I got a chance to meet the author. I finished this whole book in about a day and a half

Love the boss- assistant unrequited love dynamic with the fake dating trope. I gobbled up thus sweet Treat with a spoon

The preview wasn’t enough. I am intrigued. Katee is one of my favorite romance authors and I can’t wait to dive into this one. So far so good!!

This book is given me clue (boardgame) but make it sexy. I like how they both like each other but they think the other wont feel the same way. I think a PREVIEW could be a good middle of not an arc but still getting a reader/reviewer excited about a upcoming book coming out.

Ok, as an avid Katee Robert reader, my expectations were really high.
For a cute, short and uncomplicated read, this book was just that.
I loved the continuity of Radiant Sin, in respect to the rest of the series, however, it did not speak to me as much as I thought it would. Without spoiling anything, I think there could have been a more in depth plot. Where the majority of the plot took place, was intriguing, but it could have taken things further.
In general, I love the series and would stick around to see how everything unfolds. I rated this a 3.25/5 but I always round up.
I look forward to reading book 5.

The fourth book in the Dark Olympus series by author Katee Robert, Radiant Sin is a modern retelling of the gods of Olympus. This is the story of Apollo and Cassandra Gataki. After reading the first three books in the series and loving them, the sneak peek I have so far read for Radiant Sin shows me that I will no doubt love this book too. The story between Apollo and Cassandra is different from the other Dark Olympus stories. A fake relationship between boss and employee, where real feelings and emotions come into play while finding the threat to the city? Cant wait to read the rest of this book.
Thank you to Sourcebooks for the sneak peek of Radiant Sin.

I love the Katee is so good to her readers through her Patreon and by giving advanced chapters ahead of publishing. Also make sure to follow her on Insta, she's hilarious and gives lots of behind the scenes and sneak peeks,

If Katee Robert writes it, I’m going to read it and probably love it. Every one is my favourite, and Electric Idol made it difficult for the others. I love Apollo and Cassandra, just perfect fake dating

Fabulously done and I can’t wait to read the rest! I love the way Katee writes and the Olympus series she writes is one of my favorites and most anticipated series.

Katee Robert has done it again. Her take on Apollo and Cassandra is twisted and dark, all wrapped all into one captivating read. Love this addition to the Dark Olympus series. #RadiantSinPREVIEW #NetGalley
