Incubus by Celia AaronMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Celia Aaron writing a PNR? I want to see, count me in!!! This book was very different from the other books I have read by this author. First because of the PNR factor and second because of what it made me feel.
I didn't know what I was going into when I started Incubus, and I really liked what I found out. The mythological setting was very interesting and particularly the original approach of the gods and goddesses. Ares, Artemis, Apollo... as you have never seen them!
Back to our story...
As an ex warrior maiden of Artemis, Lilah is innocent, has always been devoted to her goddess, and relationships with men were forbidden. Banished from the Olympus Forest, hurt, she wants to do anything and everything to go back to her sisters and into Artemis' good graces. Starts out a long journey where she seeks and eventually meets Roth, the one who could be the solution to her predicament.
Roth. Immortal with an incubus inside of him. Intrigued by Lilah's innocence, sexiness and sassiness from the first time he laid his eyes on her, he is torn between the need to feed his Incubus, the attraction he feels for her (the hunger, even) and the need to protect her.
Lilah sets her plan in motion, seducing the intense yet caring Roth. The alternance of flashback and present scenes render is quite enjoyable, making an easy, somewhat suspenseful read. As they learn to know each other, the chemistry between them grows until their feelings become undeniable. Will the smart and cunning Lilah able to go through her original plan and betray him?
The atmosphere is incredible in this book. Paris, Roth's mansion, the different places they visit, Ares' den, the different creatures, the world Mrs Aaron created was super intriguing.
It was nice and sweet, mixed with passion and scorching hot scenes. I missed, though, the edge there usually is in her books.
