(Eternal Guardian Series #4)
By Elisabeth Naughton
Synopsis:
Orpheus--To most he's an enigma, a devil-may-care rogue who does whatever he pleases whenever he wants. Now this loose cannon is part of the Eternal Guardians--elite warriors assigned to protect the human realm--whether he likes it or not.
Orpheus has just one goal: to rescue his brother from the Underworld. He's not expecting a woman to get in the way. Especially not a Siren as gorgeous as Skyla. He has no idea she's an assassin sent by Zeus to seduce, entrap, and ultimately destroy him.
Yet Skyla herself might have the most to lose. There's a reason Orpheus feels so familiar to her, a reason her body seems to crave him. Perhaps he's not the man everyone thinks... The truth could reveal a deadly secret as old as the Eternal Guardians themselves.

Viviana's Review:
LOVED IT!! I have been eagerly waiting to read Orpheus’s story! We’ve gotten to know him throughout the series but we KNEW there was more to him than what he led on. Deemed the “bad boy” throughout the series, Orpheus has tried to live up to that perception, with some success. However, the Queen already knows his secret and not the one that Orpheus tries to hide the most, but the one that everyone believes to be true, that he is evil. She knows better! He’s helped her out too many times and knows they have a friendship, even if he denies it. Now, another woman, Skyla, a Siren sent to kill him, sees he isn’t just the smart ass, sarcastic, selfish being the Argonauts believes him to be. He struggles with his inner demons and the actual demon that is part of him. For Skyla, there is also something oddly familiar about him. As they fight not only with each other, but to save Gryphon from the Underworld, they must both learn that there is more than meets the eye. Strings are being pulled in this ever growing game of dominance over the human realm and they must learn from the past and see what the future may hold for them.
Elisabeth truly has a gift of breathing new life to the ancient Greek Mythology stories without distorting or ruining them. Really, she makes you want to brush up on them or read them for the first time. She’s created a world that makes you want to be part of it!
You get adventure, romance and some nice, steamy sex scenes that leave you all hot and bothered! What more can a girl ask for?
Can’t wait to read the next installment “Enslaved”, November won’t get here quick enough!!
