Search - The Nymph King (Atlantis, Bk 3)

For what it was, The Nymph King was an entertaining read but the heroine bordered on irritating through most of the book. Valerian was your typical sexy alpha male who knew all women wanted him, except our heroine, at first, so watching him try to rationalize why Shaye didn't fall under his spell was fun. The lore associated with the Nymph's was fascinating and the secondary characters were great. Overall, it kept me occupied. My only complaint was the heroine. The lady protested way too much and nearly sucked the fun out of the story.

I usually really love Showalter, but this one is bad. The writing is sloppy and the leads are annoying.

Arrogant, sensual male meets cynical, hardboiled female and gets the shock of his millenniums old life....she wants nothing to do with him. Add in a challenge for the woman by one of his warriors, a sea god who is VERY vexed with the nymphs (kill them all!) and a war with the dragons to regain the nymph women and keep the captured castle and you have enough action to up the tension in the adventure side of this book. It goes without saying that sensual tension is there from the first few pages. Funny in places and nice character development occurs for the hero, heroine and some others.

these were so good, couldn't put them down

What can I say except yummmm! This was a great read from start to finish! I am now reading the book2 in this series and have to say book one was ever so much fun also! I highly recommend this series as it has adventure, love, betrayal, and of course the sexual elements we have come to know Gena Showalter for! This one definitely isn't short of that at all! You won't be disappointed one bit in this book, much less the others in the series.

as good as jr ward books
