Spicy spicy. This was a good installment in the dark Olympus series. This book involved a love triangle. It seemed a little rushed and there wasn’t as much relationship development but boy does Katee know how to turn on the spice action. You need a waterhose to cool down.

3.5 stars

This was another decent entry in the Dark Olympus series and it definitely has some big moments and stuff for the overarching plot. This one is a polyamorous triangle with Eurydice, Charon ( her best friend), and her ex Orpheus who is a mess. Lots of power play and groveling as well as a humiliation kink (we love to see it). I wish that there was a bit more development in the relationship cause it felt kind of rushed and not quite complete.

Thank you Sourcebooks and Netgalley for an eARC in exchange for an honest review.

Another great book in this series! Of course it had all the spice, but also plot and great characters. I love how I can pick up a new book from this series and immediately remember all the other books and characters!

The Neon Gods series is one of my favourites and Midnight Ruin didn't let it down. Overall if I had to rank the couples and stories in the series so far, I'd have to put this one lower on the list for both but I did still really enjoy the read. The political storylines are really ramping up now and I can not wait to see how it's all wrapped up and which couples are still to come. Always a great time.

I love my Greek and Roman mythology books. Though not really a fan of MFM relationships, this was at least a fun read. If Sierra Simone's book X Scarlett St. Clair, it would be this.

I always love Katee Robert's twists on Greek mythology, and this one does not disappoint. Nicely spicy, and a lot of fun.

I have read many books by this author and I will say that when it comes to this author, there is a bit of 'hit or miss' quality to the stories. I can't tell you that I love EVERYTHING she writes; oftentimes I find myself disappointed. Yet, I still finally myself giving her books a try because amongst all the 'awful' is some truly good stories.

The Dark Olympians series is another 'hit or miss' series for me. Some of the books have been good, while others have failed. This one had some shining moments between Eurydice and Charon, but then there where some that felt cringe-worthy (circa Cruel Intentions). Why would Eurydice want to be with Orpheus? I'm not against him being a painter, but he seems so wimpy and unwillingly to fight for her. It makes for a very odd dynamic.

I'm all for the MMF kinks and usually Robert's does this well but it felt like in this story she was just trying to push the envelope because the characters were 'gods' . Most of the situations with them together just didn't feel appropriate for their characters. Felt too forced. The whole story was a let down for me but I understand that my thoughts may have been differing from others.

** Thank you to NetGalley and the author for the opportunity to review this advanced copy in exchange for my honest opinion **

Eurydice is honestly one of the side characters that I have been most interested in their story. The sheltered little sister of Persephone. The one who she and Hades fiercely protects after what happened with Orpheus (via Zeus) in the first book. Now that it's finally here, I can say that it truly lived up to the hype.

Eurydice's story with Charon, Hades's right-hand man and Orpheus is one that I wasn't expecting. Charon, her fierce protector, has been in love with her since he was assigned by Hades to guard her, but considering how her last relationship with Orpheus went... he's kept his thoughts and hands to himself until Eurydice sneaks away to Hades club all on her own. When Charon catches her... the sparks and the romance fly. Add in her feelings for her ex.. who happens to be bi, just like Charon, and you have the spark that ignites a fiery passion I didn't expect.


Midnight Ruin is MMF, and this relationship style is fast becoming one of my favorites. Why choose between the two men in her life when she can have them both. It's the best of both worlds really.

Now to wait until August for the next one.

This series is great, and the newest addition is no exception. The modern spin on greek mythology is unique, particularly combined with the spicy romance. Recommended for any urban fantasy romance fan!

This was a good addition to the Dark Olympus series. It was well-written and the chapters were spaced easily. The characters were likable and the plot was enjoyable. It followed up on other characters that we had read about in past books.

Eurydice Dimitriou the innocent little sister, Charon Ariti, Hades's right-hand man and Orpheus Makos, the golden boy of the upper city. Three hearts. Three futures. Countless ways to get it wrong.

Midnight Ruin is MMF and in true Katee fashion, it is done so well and if you are into a little praise, this one will be good for you. I actually think this one goes into my top three of the series, only losing out to Neon Gods and Electric Idol. The political plot and the main storyline is absolutely coming along. I am so invested in the goings on in Olympus! It's starting to feel more about a story now, rather than each separate couple and I am living for it.

Thank you to Netgalley, Sourcebooks and Katee Robert for an advanced copy. This addition to the Dark Olympus series is available now.

Katie Robert's steam is always PIPING HOT!

The books in this series are great.. I love the greek mythology retelling... Ive really grown to know these characters.

This is one of my favorites of the series, although...... NOTHING will ever beat Neon Gods!!!


Thank you SOURCEBOOKS Casablanca and NetGalley for a digital copy in exchange for my honest review!

Wow. Whoa and whew! That was the first series of words I could string along after reading Midnight Run. So thrilling and unabashedly raw and sexy. Amazing theme and twist on the fates.

Midnight Ruin follows Eurydice, Orpheus, and Charon. I have always enjoyed the Dark Olympus series but unfortunately this book was a bit of a miss for me. I felt like the book plot was slow to develop while the characters just completely ignored past issues in order to become a couple. It felt a little bit toxic. Midnight Ruin just didn’t have the same depth and excitement as the other books on the series. Overall 3 ⭐️

Thank you to SOURCEBOOKS Casablanca and the author for an advanced copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Midnight Ruin is a great addition to the Dark Olympus series by Katee Robert. I’ve been following this series and I’m a big fan of Katee in general so this book gave me everything I was looking for.

The anti-heroes of Olympus return for another installment of the Dark Olympus series! Midnight Ruin brings us the story of Eurydice, Charon, and Orpheus.

Eurydice is tired of being the fragile one among the Dimitriou sisters and she is ready to claim her own identity. With the help of Charon, she learns to take what she wants...and what Eurydice wants is Orpheus on his knees before her, begging for forgiveness. Set amongst the backdrop of Olympus' upcoming war, the three begin a love affair that is equal parts healing and pure lust.

In Midnight Ruin, we learn more about the upcoming war for Olympus and the person funding Minos in his quest to destabilize the already precarious city.

This book was hot with a capital H-O-T! Katee Robert doesn't hold back in any part of the story and the plot and heat tie together seamlessly.

Katee Robert has done it again!! Love love LOVE this series, and this installation!!! I can't wait to see what happens next! I'll be sure to keep some lens cleaner for my glasses handy for when they fog up from the HEAT!!!!

I have read SEVERAL of Katee Robert's books at this point and I've come to the conclusion that they are just not good.

I appreciate that Robert is constantly adding material to the romantasy genre but they are mediocre at best. The smut feels like it's being written by someone who just learned they are allowed to curse and has no idea how to do so. I'll never get over the phrase "blow my load" being used in this book. I immediately wanted to stop reading. It made realize that Robert writes like this all the time and as a whole, the writing is awkward and cringy. The sex scenes are also pretty boring.

I will NOT be okay when this series ends. Thankfully we still have four more books to go!

But this one? WOAH. I’ll be honest in that Wicked Beauty still holds the spot as my favorite, but this was definitely one of the hottest ones yet.

Eurydice has always been underestimated and viewed as the innocent sister, especially after Orpheus risked her life and broke her heart. But he still holds part of her heart. And the other part now belongs to Charon, Hades’ right-hand man. And apparently both men love her. What a fun twist when the two men also grow to love each other…

I honestly loved the dynamic of these three, especially the character growth for each of them, and the glimpses into all of the other couples we’ve already grown to love in the previous five books. But the pacing was a bit off in this one for me. We’re clearly gearing up for a big fight in order to save Olympus, but it looks like that’ll be drawn out throughout the last few books. Because of that, the end of this one felt like a massive cliffhanger (more so than any of the others prior) and I’m itching to get my hands on the next one!!

Tropes:
- MMF
- Second chance romance
- He falls first
- Why choose
- Forced proximity
- One bed
- Greek mythology
