The god of love has sworn off dating. Too bad he’s just met his perfect match…

'If you were a fan of the Percy Jackson series, but have now grown up - this is for you!' - Amazon Reviewer

Valentine is the guardian angel of love, the last of his kind defending the world from the forces of darkness. That means no distractions, no dating, and certainly no falling in love. But when a mortal re-awakens his heart, she proves to be his greatest strength, and his only weakness…

Elle has always had a disastrous love life. But when her date turns into a vampire, she realizes she’s hit a new low. Saved by a winged warrior, and pursued by an army of bloodsuckers, Elle follows her guardian angel into a world of magic and adventure. But as he sets her heart racing, she learns there’s just one problem. He’s forbidden from falling in love...

Thrown into a world of vampires, witchcraft and warring Greek gods, they find themselves in a race against time to stop an ancient evil from destroying their worlds. But as sparks fly on and off the battlefield, they learn the light in their hearts could be the key to defeating the darkness. Or it could be the source of their destruction…

Heartbreaker

In Zephyr third assignment for Hera to bring love to the Sons of Olympus in order to relight the torch of Olympus to keep the world from fading into darkness and to get his hero's license and his golden ticket to finally impressing the Muses. Zephyr is to help the descendent of Eros named Valentine who is a winged warrior locked in an eternal war against the forces of darkness who has sworn off of all things falling in love. And Zephyr just can’t have that.

Valentine is soaring across the city looking for his next prey when he spots no other than Zephyr shouting in the street that he just saw a vampire. He thinks that it’s bust until he sees trying not to be seen and speeding away. Valentine followed the man into the park were the man where he hides in the shadows to see what he does. Valentine confronts the man and tells him "Something tells me I'm not the date you were expecting,” and the vampire tries to act like he is a scared human. Valentine then says "This is the trouble with blind dates. You never know who you're going to meet," and tell him to drop the act and the guy does. And he drops the disguise of the expensive suits wearing businessman to what he truly was the living dead. The Nosferatu. The moroi.
All the same. Creatures who fed on the life-force of mortals. Monsters of hate, desperate to feed on the love that only the living could feel. Valentine and the vampire fight and Valentine ends up winning but not before the vampire tells him that hey a fool to think that he can fight the darkness, Heartbreaker. He’s a dying breed, and soon he'll meet the same fate as his comrades. Valentine is about to leave park when the vampire date arrives and he envy’s her a little bit because she has a chance at finding the one thing that he will never be able to have a chance at love. But as he is about to leave the wind gathered enough strength to turn Valentine gaze to the mortal. As she stood bathed in silver light she was beautiful, enchanting even and his eyes widened when she turned and something neck. Valentine placed his hand to his pendant and held it up in the light. He glanced from it, and to the woman before him. This mortal woman wore an identical heartglass pendant as him. What could this mean? The winds gathered strength and a single black feather fell from his wings and the mortal woman picked it up.

Elle is a mortal that has just got stood up and all she wants to do is sit at home and watch tv and spend time with her cat but her roommate has other plans. She forces Elle to come down to her job to a speed dating event where she ends up setting Elle up with a vampire. Valentine shows up and tries to warn Elle that her and her roommate dates are vampires and that she needs to come with him so that he can protect her but she think that he’s crazy. Well that is until her roommate goes to the bathroom and both of their date attacks Elle and keep calling her a Heartbreaker and telling her that they have to take her to the Master. So Elle escape with help from Valentine, May, and Barrett (The Heartbreaker.) May isn’t too thrilled about Elle joining them she doesn’t trust her and she’s not alone in that Dita Valentine guardian doesn’t either. But Valentine point out Elle belongs with them she has a heartglass and they need to train her how to defend herself against the vampire. So they do. But is there more to Elle? Why are the vampires after her? Why do her and Valentine have identical heartglass pendants? I guess that you have to read this book to find out those answers for yourself.

I received this as an ARC for my honest opinion and I honestly loved it. I would definitely recommend that you read book.

Love Truly Conquers All

I've listened to other books in this series, and I've got to hand it to the author: she makes each one quite distinct even though the series has an overarching theme about finding love for the sons of Olympus. This particular “son” is perfect for romance: Valentine! His full relationship to the gods and goddesses of Olympus isn't fully revealed until the end of the book. For an immortal with such an illustrious background, he doesn't come across as sweetness and light at all. In fact, he and his band of mythical beings all have a bit of a hard edge, even though they're trying to keep the mortal world safe for love. This crew calls themselves Heart Breakers, and while they used to have soulmates in the past, it's been ingrained in them that while they're trying to protect love for humans, love for them is actually a weakness. It's kind of weird the way this plays out in the story, and I think the author could have done a better job of explaining who exactly the Heart Breakers were, their loveless history, their precise mission, etc.

This story has a kick-butt magical element, though the mortal heroine came into her magical power a bit too quickly and easily to be believable. It's cool what she can do and how she does it, but I read enough fantasy and paranormal books to appreciate that magical mastery takes time, and I wish the author had done so. The book has a great twist at the end. I kind of saw it coming—wishing the heroine would make a better choice when she could—but the author fleshed out the bitter end far better than I imagined it.

I love the end of the story, despite some confusion and some plot pathways that probably could have been trimmed without harming the story. What makes it so much fun for a romantic like me is that, in the end, love truly did conquer all against incredible odds and forces, and in a much broader sweep than we typically see in romance, even paranormal or supernatural romances.

At the book review site I downloaded this from, the author or her people made some strange claims in the book description that didn't quite align with the reality of the book. In case they use the same description on bookseller websites, I'll tell you a bit about the ones that weren't accurate. The blurb states this is an “enemies-to-lovers” romance, but I never got a sense of that at all while listening to the story. The hero and heroine are not enemies at any point. In fact, you could say they had a nearly instant attraction to each other, but for their own reasons, both fought this, and neither was interested in romance. That doesn't make them enemies. Also the book description said this is a vampire romance. That couldn't be further from the truth! The Heart Breakers are actually vampire hunters trying to subdue the vampire population, which has had an exponential rise lately; the Heart Breakers are not vampires! The two romances in this story are between Heart Breakers for one couple and a Heart Breaker and a human for another. No vampire romance here! I know both the enemies-to-lovers trope and vampire romance are popular, but don't insult your story by calling it something it isn't, hoping to gain readers who like popular tropes. If you believe you've written a good story, stand by it, whatever it is! This book is a part of a series, as I stated at the beginning of this review, but this stands completely on its own. You can certainly read or listen to this book having no knowledge of the other ones.

I received a promo code for this audiobook, but that did not affect my review.

"I'm not some Princess who needs saving. I can take care of myself."

Except she was and did...

I loved the setting of this book. I loved the Greek mythology intermixed with modern day. I liked that vampires fed on the love of people through their blood. I loved that the story began with Zephyr- who sounded like a lot of fun! (I want his story!)

The set up introducing Elle and Valentine respectively was interesting and attention-catching. Unfortunately, it went down for me from there.

Elle's friend Nancy, had good intentions, but was quick to dislike. She repeatedly ignored all of Elle's wishes in favor of what she thought was best for her. Elle didn't want to go to the speed dating event at a depressing bar with jaded rich people? Too bad, Nancy "won't take no for an answer" and would drag her out herself. Interested in the bad boy- no, he's no good. These guys that don't interest her? Go with them. It put a bad taste in my mouth.

For me, (at least what I'd gotten through) Elle falls into the heroine category of too stupid to live. Attacked by vampires in a booth in a bar? Runs up to the roof away from everyone, instead of towards a crowd. Vampire jumps off roof to the street below to escape Valentine. Elle doesn't trust him even though he saved her and warned her, escapes down the ladder to the street. Is ambushed by same vampire plus backup who simply followed her home.

Even after Valentine and two other vampire slayers save her, and he warns her yet again, she still doesn't trust him. *eye roll* He reveals his matching heart-shaped pendant. But it wasn't until her cat Byron liked him so she says, "Well he likes you. Which means you must be trustworthy. I'll come with you."

Another turn off for me- the bad guys monologued too much. I know this is young adult, but it felt juvenile. Elle is tossed a weapon and must conjure up a strong emotion to use it but fails. So of course mid-battle, vampire who tried to kill her taunts her and threatens to find and hurt Nancy, angered her just enough to use the weapon she otherwise couldn't and kill him. *sigh* She said she doesn't need saving, but in the first hour and a half of this audiobook, she was saved three times.

I listened to this narrated by Katie Bloomwood. I thought she did a great job. I liked the tone of her voice. She spoke clearly and was well paced.

This was my first from this author. Unfortunately this one wasn't for me and I stopped listening after and hour and a half. Maybe because it's young adult- though I do read those from time to time just fine. I would try again with something adult maybe.

Overall: 3 stars
Performance: 4 stars
Story: 3 stars

I absolutely love this series!! I am a bit upset that I missed out on reading the first one, but rest assured I will go back and grab it as soon as I have time. Eden does such a fabulous job with characters that you feel like you are there with them. The dialog is natural, and the writing is fluid. I often switch between listening to abd reading my books, so if the writing is grammatically aqward it makes listening difficult. I don't have any trouble with her books.

Valentine is the 3rd Son of Olympus to fall for his true love, and increase the flame of Olympus. OMG, my heart totally broke for him from the very beginning. The idea of having to eliminate all emotion so you could battle monsters just sounds like a terrible existence. He knew this, and was willing to make the sacrifice so that others could experience the joy of love. Talk about swoonworthy! Poor Elle, just standing there, waiting for someone who was never going to show. Who doesn't know that feeling? And her rose-colered-glasses roommate, Nancy, just about drove me nuts! 😅 There must be a happy middle between the two girls somewhere. But I guess it points out just how desolate Elle really is, so point made.

When Valentine draws Elle into the Heartbreakers, it is the first time she truly feels part of a group, that she really fits in with them (despite May's initial assessment). As Valentine and Elle spend more time together, the attraction, and mixed signals, come to the breaking point for Elle. She is going to have to either confront it with Valentine (if he even will) or she has to leave (for her own sanity). Leaving puts her at risk, and she knows it, but there are only two choices she can identify. Which direction will Elle go? Does Valentine even leave her an option?

I got this as an ARC, and am more than happy to share my thoughts on the book with you. However, there is SO much going on and I won't give any spoilers. Therefore, not much I can - or will - say regarding plot points. You simply have to read this for yourself. I suggest grabbing the whole series thus far (the 3 I've read are all fabulous). You simply can't go wrong! Happy Reading 📚

[Narci · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a wonderful, amazing and inspiring story of two lost souls in a world full of darkness searching for true love and the glimmer of hope. From the moment I started reading this book I could not put it down and devoured it in just a few days. I was hooked on this wonderful, damaged vampire hunter and the beautiful lost young woman who just wanted to hide away. Valentine is such a handsome, dangerous, reckless, rude brooding vampire hunter who has shut out love, happiness and desire. Valentine has lived in the darkness until he saw Elle and what she wore. Elle is a sweet, depressed, beautiful woman who has lost faith in finding true love and wears her mom's heartglass. Elle seems to find danger everywhere she goes, but her tenacity, strength and fearlessness give her the strength to fight for what she believes. Both Valentine and Elle have lived in darkness for far too long, neither realizing there is a light at the end of their darkness. I absolutely love Nancy and her enormous heart and her faith in love. I love Valentine's friends Barrett and May; they are so adorable together. Byron is just too cute always meowing his two cents in. But most of all I absolutely love the message these books have, the inspiration they effuse and the hope they spark is just...awe. My heart went out to Valentine and all he endured. I love how these books start and end with Zephyr and Hera trying to save the light of Olympus before it dies out. The banter, sweet moments, and intimate times will keep you begging for more. The danger, action, deceit, intrigue and of course the vampires will keep you on the edge of your seat. I am in awe of these Son's of Olympus and their stories, their messages, their inspirations and most of all their love for love and brightening up any gloomy day. These books are a must read. Eden Royale has touched my soul yet again with this story leaving me begging for more adventures and romances. I can't wait to read about Poseidon’s descendant and what Zephyr and Iris get themselves into. If I could give this book more than a five star, I would in a heartbeat.

"You don't need to be scared, Elle. I'll keep you safe." Elle folded her arms and scowled at Valentine. "I'm not a Princess who needs saving." She looked at the battle scared warrior in front of her. "And you're certainly no knight in shining armor."

Sons of Olympus - Heartbreaker focuses on Valentine - a descendent of Eros and Psyche, an Erote. As a Demigod he possesses certain powers. He had wings and can fly. He heals rapidly unless hit with certain poisons. But he had cut himself from love falsely believing it would give him advantage over the scourge of the vampires and their leader, Ambrose. Then he met Elle, his soul mate and things changed much to the ire of his guardian, Dita. From the beginning, Dita seemed to send them out on missions that were strangely deceptive. They'd get overwhelmed from not having the proper Intel. But by listening to Elle and letting love rule instead of darkness, they were able to win. Much to Dita's ire. In the end, Valentine and Elle got their Happily Ever After.

I enjoyed the overall story this book told. It is a good story. I'm always in for a Greek Retelling. I love the Author's imagination. I loved Elle and her tenacity. Byron is the best cat ever.

I would have liked to have seen the writing tightened up. I saw the phrase "____ cursed" throughout the book too many times. With other characters using Aphrodite faints or something like that, that could be introduced and used. I also would have liked to seen better character description. It was a one and done. I don't even feel like I got a good description of what Elle looked like. I have more of an idea what Byron looks like.

Overall I did enjoy this book. I just wish the writing was better.

Thank you Book Sirens for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

A wonderful addition to the series to indulge in my love of the romantasy genre

Is this my favourite of the Sons of Olympus series?
No... my favourite cover, but story-wise, my favourite still sits firmly with Smoke Jumper because...dragon shifters!

However, Eden is developing his narratives, expanding the vocabulary used and strengthening his fiction as he does this.

The characters in this instalment have more depth, development and I think an improved sense of self from his previous stories and the spice is getting warmer as the series goes on - a great introduction for people transitioning from YA to NA - and I think that demonstrates a thoughtfulness towards the target audience of this series.

I know that NA isn't targeted at me as an audience (because I am fully in the 18+ reads category generally), but I love fantasy/romantasy/PNR and its wonderful to be able to read a series that indulges that romantasy side and to go through that journey with an indie author.

OMG!!! Amazing!!!I just love this book so much and I enjoyed reading it and it was a page turner and the suspense was like WHAT!!!! YES!!! If you like a Greek Mythology Series this is the book for you it was about a vampire / God who was living in a city. Valentine was the son of Eros the God of Love. As he ran into a girl name Elle that was going through her own drama in her life. Valentine and Elle was attracted towards each other was like firework and it was steamy hot. It had drama, love, etc and action packed. And all the characters in this book were so amazing. It was dark and heartwarming of love during a darkness romance for a vampire it was an excited book to read and I was on edge of my seat. Who ever read this book you will not be disappoint at all I know I was not. Because I love all the books that this author wrote they were all great.

Greek Mythology with a fantasy spin on it filled with love and heartache. What could be better? I really enjoyed this book. It is an easy read with a good plot to follow along with. The characters are developed well enough in the length of the book. I would have loved to have had more of a relationship developed between the MCs before the FMC, Elle, decided that she had fallen for the MMC, Valentine.
But I did really enjoy that after Elle’s life gets disrupted and thrown into chaos, she accepted it quickly and used her newfound skills to become a skilled warrior and not end up being some damsel in distress.
Overall, the book was a fun read, and I am looking forward to the rest of the series. Especially after reading the epilogue of this book.

Heart Breaker, book three in the Sons of Olympus series is an intriguing mix of the Paranormal, Mythology, Romance and Magic featuring a guardian angel of love, Valentine who leads the way in defense of the mortal realm against the darkness that wants to control it.

While never having sought love for him things are about to change for this Guardian Angel when mortal Elle enters his existence and chaos doeth reign.

Good writing and a fast-paced enemies-to-lovers romance fuel the plot of this action narrative that is loaded with engaging characters and races towards an ultimately satisfying conclusion.

They have great growth and chemistry throughout. This is a fast paced, paranormal romance story that is easy and entertaining to read. An enemies to lovers romance story that you don't want to miss.

Book three and this time it’s Valentines story. As the guardian of love, you would think that he would be in love but no as one of the last of his kind to defend the world from darkness he cannot afford any distractions. Enter Elle whose love life is completely hopeless but that doesn’t make her give up despite it being a total disaster. Well paced and full of adventure and magic, mayhem and chaos and let’s not leave out the romance and love. I love the characters and the Greek mythology and am thoroughly enjoying this series!

The third book that follows our third son of an Olympic god and the mortal woman who is their true love. The struggle is, this son has sworn off love in order to save the world. The mortal woman has also sworn off love after MAN failed dating attempts. However, the two cross paths in order to take down a common enemy…VAMPIRES! The story was fast pace and truly did not have a lot of background stuff. It was straight to the point. Truly a fun fast pace read!

[Darkdirtysmut · Rating 5 out of 5]

If you're into Greek Mythology mixed with Vampires set in New York then this book is a definite must read.

I was immediately drawn in by Valentine. As his story unfolds throughout the book it truly us heartbreaking! The Darkness and Vampires adds that bit of excitement/edge of your seat.

Elle is a single woman living in New York completely content in her loveless life. Her roommate, Nancy, is a Bartender at the Broken Heart and she is a hopeless romantic. Elle's blind date is a no show and when she gets home Nancy insists she come to the bar and join the "Speed Dating" event she organized. Motorcycle rumbles and in walks Valentine. Long hair, dark eyes, leather jacket, every wrong thing that Elle can't avoid.

Valentine is the son of Eros, God of Love, and the last of the Elotes. He's been trained since child that love is a weakness and has been trained to be the leader of the Heart Breakers. His team consists of two others who also have shut all emotions off and they survive and fight Vampires within the darkness. That is until Elle shows up and breaks all their rules and shows them that to fight darkness you need the light of love to shine through.

great read

Update:
I listened to the audiobook version of this story on Audible. Katie Bloomwood did another great job of bringing this story to life. She voiced all the characters in this book, and I enjoyed how she gave each character their own unique voice and personality. I do think (even though it’s told in third person) that it would be even more enjoyable if there was a male voicing the male characters while Katie Bloomwood voiced the females.

This is book three of this series, told in third person pov and leaves you with a HEA. This book can be read as a standalone, but is more enjoyed when read in order.

This story held my attention and was interesting to see all the different personalities and traits that defended the city of vampires. I love that Elle found the adventure she was looking for and the love she never thought she would receive. I love that Valentine opened up to Elle and found his light in the darkness.

I’ve enjoyed this series and can’t wait to see the next story plays out to help save Olympus.
