Electric Idol: A Deliciously Forbidden Modern Retelling of Psyche and Eros

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES AND USA TODAY BESTSELLER!

He was the most beautiful man in Olympus...and if I wasn't careful, he was going to be my death.

*A scorchingly hot modern retelling of Psyche and Eros that's as sinful as it is sweet.*

In the ultra-modern city of Olympus, there's always a price to pay. Psyche Dimitriou knew she'd have to face Aphrodite's jealous rage eventually, but she never expected her literal heart to be at stake...or for Aphrodite's gorgeous son to be the one ordered to strike the killing blow.

Eros has no problem shedding blood. Raised to be his mother's knife in the dark, he's been conditioned to accept that he's more monster than man. But when it comes time to take out his latest target...he can't do it. Confused by his reaction to Psyche's unexpected kindness, he does the only thing he can think of to keep her safe: he binds her to him, body and soul.

Psyche didn't expect to find herself married to the glittering city's most dangerous killer, but something about Eros wakens a fire inside her she's never felt before. As lines blur and loyalties shift, Psyche realizes Eros might take her heart after all...and she's not sure she can survive the loss.

It's not as good as the first one, but it's still good. The writing itself gets a 3/5, but because of how quickly I'm consuming the books because they're easy to read and engaging, I'm giving it an overall 4/5. Great spice, enemies to lovers, Greek mythology modern retelling (sort of).

Psyche and Eros were seen together in an elevator, and Olympus erupted. Chaos ensues as a feud ignites even more between two of the thirteen. Will Psyche and Eros survive Aphrodite's fury, or will they manage to escape Olympus unscathed?

I absolutely loved Neon Gods, but somehow this book turned out even better in my opinion (which was a pretty high bar to beat). I absolutely adore Eros and Psyche, they're perfect for each other and no one can tell me otherwise. The love between them is built up slowly, which made their love all that more believable. I will be recommending this book until the day I die.
