When this book was first released, I saw so many positive reviews that I couldn't resist the temptation to buy the book. It's billed as a fantasy romance, and those usually sit really well with me. It took me a while to get around to reading the book, but I got there eventually. 
 And I was left with a sour taste in my mouth. I honestly cannot understand how this book has managed to get so many good reviews. 
 First of all, it's not a fantasy romance. It's a romance that conveniently takes place in a fantasy setting. All of the high points in the story revolve around the romance. 
 Furthermore, the way that the whole story is presented is enough to induce a mental health problem. Cat is kidnapped, and yet she's constantly made to feel that she's overreacting to the whole kidnapping, and she should be thankful for being allowed to be part of Griffin's band of brothers. The way that it's presented, she is being unreasonable. Excuse me? She was kidnapped! She should fight to be given her freedom, and then she should run in the opposite direction and never look back. 
 And finally, it's not even romantic. The "relationship" presented is really screwed up. Griffin is essentially forcing himself on Cat all the time. The reader knows that she's rejecting him, but in her own mind she's battling an attraction to him, but Griffin 
 does not know that 
 . As far as he's aware, she's rejecting him - both physically and verbally - and then he's got her up against another wall, forcing his attentions on her. He exhibits other behaviour that can be linked to abusive relationships: he gets frustrated and hits things around her (kicks rocks, hits save walls, etc) until she gives in to his demands. 
 I'm not even going to go into the stupidity of the fantasy (why on earth are the Greek gods present in this fantasy land, and why are Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades all in love with Cat? Not to mention, Cat is stupidly OP.) 
 The whole story is about a relationship that is not at all romantic, a relationship that is incredibly unhealthy.
