Netherworld Fae #2
A Nest of Lies
Not yet published
Expected 7 Jan 26I’m being hunted by all of Mythos Fae kind.
Why?
Because I’m about to go into my first heat.
For years, I’ve just been Serapina the human.
Now, I’m Sera the Mythos Fae Omega.
And apparently I harbor millennia’s worth of secrets inside my soul.
So not only am I trying to discover the memories hidden somewhere within my mind, but I’m also on the run…
With three irresistible fae.
Hades, the God of Death.
Morpheus, the God of Dreams.
Maliki, the Enforcer of Death.
I’m pretty sure their presence is going to inspire my heat to overtake me sooner rather than later.
Which will leave me a mindless, vulnerable mess.
Can I trust my new guardians to protect me?
Or am I going to find myself twisted up in a nest of lies?
I’d better unravel the threads soon.
Because the feral Alphas are not the only ones hunting me…
The truth is coming.
And it might just destroy us all.
Author’s Note: A Nest of Lies is book two of the Netherworld Fae trilogy and ends on a cliffhanger.

Another fantastic book by Lexi. I could read her to-do list and enjoy the hell out of it.
This book picks up right where the cliffhanger from the previous book left off. Hades is doing a lot of groveling in this book---and not just to Sera, but to his cousin and best friend. Honestly, this was sort of giving Lucifer vibes from the Hell Fae series when he finally pulled his head out of his own ass. That was just as amusing to watch as it was seeing Hades realize that Sera wasn't Persephone and that she didn't betray him.
Seeing the characters from the Hell Fae series as well as Their Lethal Pet was also a great addition to this book. I mean, Sera and Alina are sisters, so it's not surprising, but I loved seeing Reaper, Flame, and Orcus again. I also loved seeing the males in the Hell Fae series. We don't see Cami, but I didn't mind. The little interaction that we got from the males and Sera's mates was just as amusing as I thought it would be and I really hope that we get to see more of those in the last book.
I have to say that I think the cliffhanger for this book was worse than the one from the first book. We're really going to get into the thick of the problem I think in the last book, and I can't wait to see how that unfolds. I'm sure it's going to cause a lot of problems, and I'm sure Lucifer will complain again, since he seems to like to do that a lot.
The Fae world that Lexi and J.R Thorn have created is one of my favorite universes that I've read, and this new series just proves it. I'm really looking forward to the last installment and seeing how it wraps up.

A Nest of Lies is the second book in the trilogy series.
Sera is coming into her first heat and has set off a beacon to all the Alpha's in Hades Underworld and is being hunted, suddenly she's whisked away into hiding. She's starting to recognize that she's an Omega and her needs that are not just one Alpha but from the three Alphas.
She has three Alpha's that are more than happy to help her through it.
Hades, the God of Death
Morpheus, the God of Dreams
Maliki, the Enforcer of Death
Hades, is starting to understand who Sera really is and putting her needs above his. He's also coming to terms that he needs Morpheus and Maliki within his mate circle.
The visualization of the characters and the Underworld make you feel like you're there with them and being a voyager watching the scenes. That's how great the story telling is by Lexi.
This story does end with a cliffhanger. FYI
Lexi has a way with her writing that makes you want more. Don't miss out on an amazing worthwhile series..

Seraphina is Persephone reincarnated but her Mate Hades doesn't believe she doesn't remember her previous life and thinks shes playing him.
But when he finally starts to understand her, thanks to the other men she has feelings (Malikai and Morpheus)for help him understand and she falls for them and doesn't trust Hades.
He's is now learning to share and to trust others
After all it's easier to protect your mate if there is three of you!
With her heat approaching and feral Alphas that can smell her, it's up to all of them to protect her and Mist her out of trouble!
But can they save her from"Mommy Goddess Dearest"?!?!?
This was a fantastic sequel and I cannot wait for book 3!!!
Lexi C. Foss is very quickly becoming g a favorite!!! Now im gonna go read her other series that overlap with this universe!!! Lucifer and Alina's books!!!

Another amazing book by Lexi which kept me reading late into the night!
The second book in this series starts where the first ended so you get thrown straight back into this world. Loved the cameos by the other characters such as Alina and Typhos.
Lexi has such a talent at world building without over doing it and her writing is so fluid and easy to read.
Sera and Hades build bridges but you can still tell it’s fragile and you can’t help but fall for both Maliki and Morpheus. I cannot wait for their HEA. The story line keeps you guessing at what happens next as at no point could I predict it. I’m guessing the third book is going to be explosive and bring it all together in the best way… I can’t wait!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
A Nest of Lies is an intense and addictive second book in the trilogy that had me hooked from start to finish. The tension is higher, the secrets run deeper, and absolutely nothing is as it seems.
Lexi C. Foss does an amazing job expanding the world and pushing the characters into darker, more emotionally charged territory. The twists kept coming, the chemistry was chef’s kiss, and I loved how morally gray and complex everyone continues to be.
Fair warning—this book ends on a serious cliffhanger that left me staring at the wall and immediately wanting book three. If you enjoy dark romance, intrigue, and stories full of deception and emotional chaos, this one delivers in every way.
Cannot wait to see how this trilogy concludes!

Review of advance copy
We are back with Serapina and her intended mates in a world that is beautifully designed. The drama that is packed throughout the story will have you so deeply pulled in that it doesn’t let go. You just have to find out how it ends. This book is about a discovery of who each of them are and what it all means to them. I love the growth we see throughout this one as the journey continues for Serapina, Morpheus, Maliki, and Hades. The past and the present colliding together. The strength and new experiences that are explored all come together in this exciting journey that you are unable to put down. The story is extremely well written and developed. We get to the ending of this book and the shocking information that is revealed has me absolutely excited to see what happens next.

Ah-maz-ing! I absolutely loved this book. Sera is definitely a favorite. Maliki is everything. I love his protectiveness of her and that he puts her needs above all else. I love that Hades is learning that it isn’t about his wants and needs this time. And Morpheus….who doesn’t want someone willing to fulfill your every dream and desire?! I couldn’t put this down once I started it. Absolutely amazing writing by Lexi as always. And the cliffhanger this ended on…I’m on the edge of my seat waiting for the conclusion now.
This is book 2 in the Netherworld Fae series, a Hades and Persephone retelling.

I would read Lexi C Foss’ grocery list if she published it!
The Netherland Novel series is a Hades and Persephone retelling meets why choose omegaverse in the best way possible. I was so excited to receive an advance reader copy of book 2!!
In Nest of Lies we see our FMC, Sera come to terms with what it means to be an omega and we see her mate circle learn what it means to be in a partnership amongst themselves. I absolutely devoured this book, and I can’t wait for the final installment of the trilogy to come out!!

Oh. My. Goodness. Book 1 left us on the worst cliffhanger ever! Book 2 picks right back up and leads us on a fantastical journey of love, acceptance, a bit of groveling, and just the right amount of sass. Sera grows into her own in such a masterful way. This book was a pleasure to read and I can’t wait for Book 3!!

This book was book two in the series and it blew me away!! I love Greek mythology especially when it relates to hades, and throw in in OV for the spice that involves! We get further in the story and I love how sera and hades relationship has evolved. It ends on a cliff and I need to know what happens next! Can’t wait for book 3!
