When Skye fakes psychic readings to save her late aunt’s struggling shop, she never expects to draw the wrath of a goddess—or the attention of her infuriatingly charming son, Cullen Eros. Cursed with uncontrollable visions and bound to a god she doesn’t trust, Skye is thrust into a world of divine politics, dangerous prophecies, and a looming war between gods and Titans. As her powers grow and her connection to Cullen deepens, Skye must confront the truth about her bloodline and decide who she’s willing to become: the girl who runs from destiny, or the woman who could reshape it.
Kimberly Rison lives in Maryland with her amazing—and most handsome—husband, who definitely isn’t standing behind her as she writes this. Together, they share a chaotic toddler and an even more chaotic tabby cat. When she isn’t writing or dreaming up worlds of gods and goddesses, she’s usually obsessing over K-dramas while putting hot sauce on popcorn or cayenne pepper…I know you’re thinking about it, and yes it’s delicious.
Arrows Align is so fun to read! The characters are rich in personality and diving into the whole world of the gods is such a fun premise. The chemistry and banter is also a 10/10. Definitely read this!

⚡REVIEW⚡ I am a massive fan of books about Greek gods, and when I read the blurb about gods and Titans, I was hopeful that it wouldn't be one of the big three this time. And I wasn't disappointed! I really loved this story, which starts with a grieving woman having a failed experience with a dating app, Arrows Align, and then encountering an immoral influencer who asks her about the app as a passing comment. When Skye replies that she'd burn it to the ground whilst being live streamed, she attracts the attention of the owner of Arrows Align - who is in fact, a goddess. (I am deliberately not naming the gods, to keep your interest piqued!) After she is cursed by Cullen, the goddesses son, she is then drawn into the world of the Olympian gods and goddesses - with dramatic consequences.
Skye is estranged from the majority of her family, and has been under the wing of her late Aunt Lydia for the majority of her life. She is desperately trying to keep Lydia's shop afloat, and would like a partner, so when she tries out Arrows Align and it goes terribly badly, her instinct when asked about it is to slate it. She doesn't expect to be stabbed with an arrow by a god for it. Nor does she expect that god to take a keen interest in her, and insist she needs to be bonded with him, and made immortal, in order to escape that curse. Naturally, she despises him, whilst also finding him insanely attractive. Her plan is to remain in his home until she can drink the nectar at the winter solstice and receive her immortality, then leave (although quite where the naive soul thinks she can go to escape a god is unclear, bless her!). But as is wont in a forced proximity situation, his actions lead to her feelings changing, and as they discover more about her heritage and what the evil brothers want with her, Skye begins to accept that she is going to be a key player in what could be a huge shakeup for the gods and goddesses of Olympus. She never shies away from anything thrown at her, instead stepping up and seizing control of her destiny. Her friendships with Euryale and Sara are strong and a joy to see develop, and the bravery she displays as they make their attempt to rescue Cullen, Zeph and Harmony and stop the brothers from causing chaos and war is breathtaking. Having been taught tarot by her Aunt Lydia, Skye's ability to read people is key to her character - and her actions and reactions, and this theme is demonstrated throughout the book.
When Cullen is commanded by his mother to curse Skye, she piques his interest. He is continually watching her after he stabs her with his arrow, and when he sees her at a club, and discovers his brothers have taken an interest in her, he goes into protect mode. When his Mother commands him to end her there and then, and Skye manages to free him from that command, he knows she is far more special than even he believed. He is determined to see her freed of the curse, and assumes she will bond to him with no concerns - the arrogance of a god at work! He does prove himself to be kind, thoughtful, and tries to be honest, although he feels a need to shelter her from the complete picture, to protect her. His love for her is complete, and he deliberately puts barriers in the way of any physical intimacy for quite a while, knowing she needs to be all in too. He would give his life willingly if it meant she was to survive the curse. He is stubborn and passionate, and doesn't always realise how hurtful his angry responses can be, pushing both his allies, Zeph and Harmony, away at times. His need to protect Skye is all-consuming, and I've seen less passion for that from even fated mates.
The supporting cast of this novel are excellent, and each thoroughly unique in their personalities (except the twins). There are the main players of Olympus present, but also lesser gods, which have a greater depth to this novel and really gripped my interest. The twin antagonists are chilling and evil, a constant step ahead and have horrendous powers. Euryale is an excellent friend and support to Skye, with a fierce power at her fingertips. Keep an eye on Marnie the cat *wink*. Sara the nymph is fiercely loyal to Cullen, but is cheeky and capable of a lot more than you'd think. One character comes through more than you'd expect based on the details given about them throughout the story, which was incredible.
I loved that there was a lot to take in throughout Arrows Align, and yet it didn't feel overwhelming or like an infodump. There were a lot of names, but it didn't feel difficult to wrangle who was who. It was paced brilliantly, with tension studded through certain scenes and joy through others. The final third was brilliantly written with a very visual feel, and left you with your heart in your mouth at points. It was an excellent novel which was exhilarating, full of heart and passion, and very cleverly executed plot which took a seemingly mortal woman and instead made her an instrument of destiny, completely changing the world of the gods forever, at the same time as capturing the heart of a god that is not often written about. It was a joy!
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to review this book!
If you've been craving a Greek mythology romance with a Bridgerton-meets-Percy-Jackson-but-filthy energy, this one delivers. Skye is a newly orphaned tarot reader who inherits her aunt's mystical shop, only to get tangled up with a dating-app-promoting, devastatingly charming Cupid who turns out to be far more dangerous, and far more wounded, than his playboy reputation suggests.
The dual POV between Skye and Cullen is a real strength here. Cullen's chapters add unexpected depth to what could've been a stock "bad boy god" archetype, and his fraught history with Aphrodite gives real emotional weight underneath the swagger. The found-family crew around them is genuinely fun, and their banter keeps the pacing light even as the plot darkens. The mythology worldbuilding, from the Olympian Command to the Fates to the slow reveal of Skye's connection to an old prophecy, is layered in well without tipping into info-dump territory, and the back half escalates into real stakes with a tense, high-energy climax that earns its emotional payoff.
Where it loses a bit of ground is the first act, which leans hard into familiar romantasy beats, the mysterious hot stranger, the instant chemistry, the guarded heroine, so if you've read widely in this genre, nothing here will surprise you structurally. A few side-character motivations on the Olympian side also resolve a little too conveniently once the plot needs them to. And it's spicy, so know that going in.
Bottom line: a well-executed slow-burn-turned-fast-burn mythological romance with a lovable, morally messy love interest and a heroine who actually grows a spine by the end. If you liked the tone of A Court of Thorns and Roses but wanted more banter and less brooding, this scratches that itch.
I love a good Greek mythology romance fantasy, Arrows Align definately delivered! Feeling fresh by taking things in a slightly different direction. Mixing gods, prophecies, and divine drama with modern dating and chaos made for such a fun read with sassy and loyal side characters and found family (& charming and irresistible MMC)
I absolutely flew through this. It's a fast, easy read with plenty of romance, banter, tension, and all the tropes I love. I found myself completely invested in Skye and Cullen and couldn't wait to see where things would go (and all the intertwining of the side characters, love Zeph! and Marnie the cat)
If you love Greek mythology with a modern twist, dating drama, forbidden attraction, prophecies, gods meddling in mortal lives, and a romance at the heart of the story, I'd definitely recommend giving this one a go!
Was great as a standalone but I would happily read more in this world. Thanks so much Netgalley for the e-arc and Kimberly for writing it!
I’m not a big “review” writer…and I never give out ratings…but this book and author deserves both. My friend and I had the chance to meet Ms Rison when she gave a book signing at our local bookstore. She was so kind, we decided to give her book a chance. I am SO GLAD we did! Now we need to make her a part of our friend group :)
As an English teacher, I read a lot. And the storytelling in Arrows Align was beyond top notch! She wove a story (pun intended) that not only got your imagination engaged, but also your heart. I needed to know how the characters would overcome the obstacles placed in their path.
The book had the perfect amount of fantasy, mythology, spice, and humor to give off the vibes of a well written classic. I am looking forward to continuing to live in this dimensional world for many more stories!
So, the Greek gods- they are still around, Skye - who isn't a Greek, or a god, her aunt dies. She gets her "psychic shop" - and she is giving people readings.
Aphrodite has started an app - for people to fall in love and Skye goes on a date with a man who put a date rape drug in her drink, she is warned (by a Greek god or semi god - who happened to be friends with her aunt). Well a influencer comes to the store and she gives her a reading and then asks her about the app - and well lets just say that Aphrodite doesn't like the comment and sends Cupid (Cullen) to go deal with her - like murder her. :)
This is about their relationship, the Greek god's and goddesses the Titans, and ultimately what Skye becomes. A very entertaining read - spicy scenes galore -Cullen really tried to fight it :)
Book Review: Arrows Align by KS Rison Three and a half stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Arrows Align is a unique fantasy romance that blends the Gods from ancient Greek Mythology with the modern day world. Skye is a mortal girl who becomes unknowingly involved with the Grecian god Cupid after he was sent to destroy her by his cruel mother Aphrodite. Mount Vesuvius levels of chaos ensue as they navigate the tenuous relationship between the twelve Grecian Gods and face an uprising from Tartarus.
I enjoyed the relationship between Cullen and Skye, although it did seem to move fairly quickly (I am more of a slow burn gal). And I loved the found family aspect: Harmony, Zeph, and Euryale were fantastic supporting characters. I did find the plot to be a bit trope-y with Skye being of Praxis bloodline and the "key" to the Titan uprising.
Overall, a lovely read and I very much enjoyed the author's work!
This book has it all - a five star read for me. A standalone with HEA, a compelling love story, insane chemistry between the FMC and MMC that had me kicking my feet, and a world I want to go back to. The entire book is fast paced but the last quarter especially, I was stressing! I absolutely devoured this book and would love if this turned into a series of connected standalones.
Greek mythology meets tarot cards, astrology, prophecies, and a dating app that might just get you ki**ed. Honestly, what more could I possibly want? 😂 This book had me intrigued from the very first chapter. We meet Skye, who's recently inherited her aunt’s shop, and almost immediately, we're introduced to tarot cards, a mysterious app called Arrows Align and a whole lot of things that make you wonder what the hell is actually going on.
I loved how the author incorporated tarot into the story right from the beginning. There's a moment when Skye comes across her cards and pulls The Fool and I immediately thought about new beginnings, taking chances, and stepping into the unknown. It was such a fitting way to introduce her journey, and I loved how beautifully that symbolism came full circle by the end.
But before we get there, things get weird. Really effing weird. 😂 There's a disastrous date, an influencer who seems a little too interested in Skye's business, a suspicious contract and a mysterious man who walks into her shop and immediately gives off love interest has entered the building energy. And then there are the voices. The strange encounters. The warning to burn Arrows Align to the ground. Excuse me? What exactly have we gotten ourselves into?
As it turns out, quite a lot. Because that mysterious man is Cullen, better known as Eros or Cupid, and Skye has somehow managed to attract the attention of some very powerful and not particularly friendly gods. Including Aphrodite. And let me tell you, this version of Aphrodite is a B*TCH. 😂
The gods are not necessarily the benevolent beings you might hope for. Some of them are downright terrifying. Especially the Titans. The way their presence is described creates such an unsettling atmosphere. You can practically feel that something is wrong before anything even happens. There's this constant underlying nervousness whenever certain characters appear, and I thought that was incredibly well done.
Meanwhile, Skye is suddenly thrown into a world she barely understands, bound to a god she doesn't entirely trust, and forced to navigate rules, dangers, and prophecies she never even knew existed. I particularly enjoyed how tarot remained part of her journey. The cards weren't just a cute little addition to make the story feel mystical. Their meanings were everywhere. They reflected situations, offered different perspectives, and connected beautifully with Skye's decisions and personal growth.
As someone who enjoys tarot myself, I really appreciated that. You could tell the author had put thought into how the cards were used rather than simply throwing a few familiar names into the story.
I also loved Skye's inner monologue. She's funny, curious, sometimes overwhelmed, and very aware that she's dealing with beings who could probably end her existence with a snap of their fingers. And yet, she keeps going. Even when she's terrified. Especially when she's terrified. Because her courage didn't come from suddenly becoming fearless. She was scared. She knew exactly how dangerous her situation was.
But when someone she loved needed her, she found a way to act despite that fear. And I think that's such a beautiful kind of strength. Now, let's talk about the romance. Because Cullen and Skye definitely have chemistry. A LOT of chemistry. The banter was fantastic, their interactions were entertaining, and I loved watching Cullen navigate his feelings for someone who was never supposed to become so important to him. However, there was one little thing I personally would have liked to experience differently.
Their attraction and emotional connection became incredibly intense quite early on, and I sometimes felt like I was trying to catch up with feelings that were already fully developed. I wanted a little more time to fall in love with them while they were falling in love with each other. To understand the smaller moments that made their feelings grow, rather than already being surrounded by all that intensity.
It's not that their relationship didn't work for me, because it absolutely did. I just would have loved a slightly slower emotional development. But that's a minor personal preference compared to how much I enjoyed the overall story.
For a while, I genuinely wondered how the author was going to wrap everything up because there seemed to be so much left to resolve and so little book remaining. And then everything started happening. The prophecies, the danger, the alliances, the decisions...
Suddenly, Skye finds herself facing an enormous challenge without the person who has been guiding her through this unfamiliar world. And she's not even fully prepared for it. She hasn't had years to understand the gods, their politics, their powers, or the rules of their world. She's essentially figuring things out as she goes while dealing with beings who could destroy her without a second thought.
But she does it anyway. I loved how the author portrayed her fear throughout those moments. Skye doesn't magically transform into someone who knows exactly what she's doing. She's still herself. She's still scared. She's still trying to understand what the h*ll is happening. But she refuses to give up.
The final confrontation, the choices, the unexpected allies, and the friendships she develops along the way were all so satisfying. And the epilogue? Absolutely beautiful. I'm not going to spoil it, but the way everything connects back to that very first tarot card was such a lovely full-circle moment.
Without the epilogue, I think something would have been missing. With it, the story felt complete. And I'm actually really glad this remained a standalone because the ending gave me exactly the closure I wanted.
Let’s tals about the audiobook, because holy effing moly. What an absolutely incredible performance. Ardie and Patrick were phenomenal together. The character range, the different voices, the emotional delivery, the atmosphere... everything was so beautifully executed. And the extra sounds?! The screeches, the meows, the little noises woven into the dialogue? I LOVE THAT STUFF. There were moments when the performance almost felt like a GraphicAudio production, simply because the narrators brought so much additional life into the scenes. I especially loved how distinctly they portrayed the different gods. You didn't always need the narration to tell you who was speaking because their voices already conveyed so much about their personalities. Their presence. Their energy. Their entire vibe.
And Cronos? Excuse me?! The atmosphere surrounding that character was absolutely wild. There were several moments when I just sat there thinking, What the f* is happening right now? It was unsettling in the best possible way.
And I also have to mention Hephaestus's letter because that scene, especially with the way the audio conveyed that distant-memory feeling, was beautifully done. Those little creative choices make such a difference. I genuinely think Ardie and Patrick were an excellent pairing, and I would absolutely listen to them narrate another book together.
What and experience! Greek mythology, tarot, astrology, prophecies, dangerous gods, a romance filled with banter, and a heroine who discovers just how brave she can be when it matters most.
The story was entertaining, the mythology was fascinating, the ending was beautiful, and the audiobook took the entire experience to another level. ❤️🏹✨
4.25 ⭐️ This book was enjoyable from start to finish. Fans of romantasy and Greek gods and goddesses will be delighted. The characters were compelling, and their chemistry was palpable. I thoroughly enjoyed the character building, forbidden romance, tasteful spice, and unexpectedly intense adventure that had me on the edge of my seat! Arrows Align is a beautifully written and impressive debut novel that leaves me wanting more. I can’t wait to see what the author has in store in the future!
Kimberly Rison is a wonderful author who brings the story to life. Cullen who is also Cupid falls in love with the fmc who's name escapes me at the moment because that how my mind works. My brain sucks on the name of characters in books. Titans vs Gods love it. Can't wait for more from this author.
I like the writing and the details that put this sort together. It was easy to follow, and I thought all the characters were thought out very well. I didn't really see the MCS falling for each other but I like of fiercely they protect each other. Very much of you hurt him/her you will die vibes.
This review contains SPOILERS. This was an ARC, provided by NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
I am a reader who will not give up on a book easily. And sometimes this pays off. I admit that at the beginning I was struggling with the book; it was not resonating with me, or maybe it just came at the wrong time. But, after the halfway mark, I was slowly being pulled in, and after the 2/3 mark I was hooked!
So, where to begin...?
Characters If you are looking for strong female characters, then this is the right book for you. The women in this story are formidable, resilient, and powerful in every way. They stand up for themselves, command the room, and face whatever is thrown at them with defiance. I loved how empowering it was. The whole cast was carefully written. I could see how they evolved through their hardships and how more layers of their personalities were revealed. Each character had their own voice, their own personality, so much so that I would like to see more of their stories (like Zeph and Harmony or Euryale and Sara). Phobos and Deimos started strong but reverted to the usual "bad guys" in the end. I was expecting a little more psychological manipulation from them, rather than pure cruelty.
Romance The romance was interesting, starting with insta-lust and evolving to love, even though its progression was a bit too abrupt - the protagonists loving each other in a deep and wholesome way without spending enough time to actually build up to this point, in my opinion. But still, I enjoyed their dynamics. The protagonists had strong chemistry, reinforced by their shared family trauma. The erotic scenes were well-written and beautiful as well. On the downside, it made me cringe a little that the couple would talk about sex while they were aware that Skye's sisters were being tortured. Or when the whole world was about to crumble and Skye pulled Cullen out of his nightmare.
Plot The story started off a bit on the lukewarm side for me, too entangled in the modern world for my taste (that's a me thing, not the book's fault). However, it soon transitions to a more fantasy setting, and in hindsight, I can see how the author smoothed that transition. When the action hit, it captivated me. Packed with action and information, it gripped the reader and held them until it reached its conclusion. However, I'll admit that at points I was confused as to what the protagonists were trying to do and why. That said, the story snagged on some scenes. The flight scene was a big no for me despite its supposedly romantic conclusion and the deeper message it was trying to convey. You don't just let someone fall without their consent just to prove you will save them! Also, I did not buy the bow training scene and how it would ever help Skye with achieving a bullseye if Cullen stood between her and the target, essentially blocking her view of it.
Mythology I really enjoyed the author's take on Greek Mythology. I am also very happy that all gods appeared in the story. Their cinematic entrance in the final battle was a great addition. In places, the book leaned heavily on the reader being familiar with some mythology stories (e.g. Hades and Persephone and the pomegranate, the Hephaestus, Aphrodite and Ares triangle and their past). Even as a Greek who is quite familiar with Greek Mythology, I had to pause and recall - and even research - some of this information. Just a small note: It's not "a Pegasus" and "a Nemean Lion". Those mythological creatures are unique; there is supposed to be only one of them.
Also, the pronunciation of some Greek words... ouch. But that's a universal problem that persists through the ages, so...
Overall, it was a book that struggled at the beginning (I was leaning toward 2.5 or 3 stars and even considered DNFing it), but it redeemed itself spectacularly. An amazing debut and I will be more than happy to see more from the author in the future.
I love Greek mythology-based novels, and cupids in general are always fun characters, but this particular take really didn't work for me.
It started out pretty good; the first 40% or so was a breeze, and the excitement and mystery of a new story carried me easily. From there to around 60%, things started tipping and going downhill. 60% to 80% was a struggle, and the very last 20% to finally reach the end was like Odysseus trying to get home: endless and agonizing. I couldn't manage to go more than a single chapter in one sitting. It took me a week to read the last 15 chapters—something I would typically get done in 2 hours.
Thinking about it, and with the advantage of being able to look back, I think the main issue for me was the characters, though the premise itself was also particularly bland: Girl meets god, god curses her only to fall in love with her a short time later because she's ~SpeCiaL~, god and girl fight bad guys, they win and live happily ever after. Not very creative, not very original.
Cullen—I will never be able to not associate that name with Twilight—was our resident Cupid and son of Aphrodite herself, longing to get out from under the crushing weight of his mother's control. Skye, we were told, was the black sheep of her family and presented no other prominent personality traits. He smirked too much; she was too bland to be interesting. Both characters were a bit all over the place, constantly changing their temperaments to fit whatever the plot needed of them: Calm, arrogant, brave, forceful, charming, insecure, confident, direct, shy, etc. There was no consistency whatsoever; it was all very murky. We were told a lot about who they were, how they fit in the world, and how they felt, but rarely were we shown those details. Not even one scene featured Skye directly interacting with her parents or sisters whatsoever. And given the catalyst that brought about the final confrontation, it was a huge oversight not to include even a single instance depicting those exchanges.
This tied into a pattern that became impossible to ignore: nothing was properly set up, so nothing carried the weight or meaning it was supposed to. The curse Cullen put on Skye was only relevant when the plot demanded it; otherwise, it was barely a second thought hidden away by the power of a magical necklace. Offhand details were later treated like major character milestones. For example, Skye took piano lessons as a girl and was made to quit when she got older. It never seemed like a devastating loss to her—until Cullen gifts her a piano, and suddenly it's profoundly meaningful, revealing she could compose songs on the spot like a secret prodigy. Just like how she was able to hit the center of a target her very first time shooting a traditional bow (you know, the type that's a curved piece of wood with a string connecting both ends), or was handed actual daggers her first day of weapons training. Neither of these things made any sense. That's not how humans or real life works.
Then, while sitting around playing the waiting game until the bad guys finally made their move (which took up a HUGE chunk of the book btw), we got a lovely scene where threats of bodily harm to coerce and intimidate the FMC were passed off as some type of romantic trust exercise. Fun times. We were also treated to a string of bizarre logic errors, like the FMC taking a jog outside in a sleeveless top while "exhaling white puffs," or hanging out in front of a lit fireplace in shorts with nearby balcony doors thrown open and curtains dancing in the breeze. And then there was the scene where she collapsed to the ground "as if gravity had forgotten her"—which is quite literally the exact opposite of how gravity works.
The pacing was off, the development of the characters, story, and conflict was non-existent, the build-up of tension failed to deliver, and the characters had no internal consistency at all.
TLDR: Bland premise, weak characters, bad execution. Boring overall.
This was an interesting reading experience for me because I know the author personally, which made it difficult to completely separate the person I know from the story on the page! I found myself bringing little bits of real-life knowledge into my reading whether I meant to or not, so take my experience with that particular grain of salt.
There were several things I really enjoyed, especially the witchy elements, tarot, and the inclusion of Greek gods as characters within the story. I also loved the theme of found family and the friendships throughout the book. Those relationships were some of my favorite parts.
The plot itself was a little harder for me to follow. There is A LOT happening, and at times I wondered whether the story might have benefited from being split into two shorter books so some of the major plot developments had more room to breathe. That's a matter of personal reading preference, though. This is very much a dark romantasy that commits fully to its tone, drama, romance, and spice. Those aren’t usually the things I gravitate toward most as a reader, so someone who already loves that genre may have a very different experience than I did.
I listened to the audiobook, and the narration by Arda Strayed and Patrick Sean was absolutely delightful. They brought so much emotion and personality to the characters, and Patrick Sean in particular had an impressive range of distinct voices. The performances added a ton to the experience and kept me engaged through a long audiobook.
More than anything, I think it’s incredibly cool to actually write a book, finish it, and put something this personal and creative out into the world for other people to experience. Not every book is going to be every reader’s book, and this one wasn’t completely to my personal taste, but I’m genuinely glad I read it. If the combination of tarot, Greek mythology, found family, spice, and dark romantasy sounds intriguing to you, I’d absolutely encourage you to read it and decide for yourself. Books are wonderfully subjective, and I can easily see parts of this landing very differently for another reader.
Arrows Align Written By: @k.s.rison Narrated By: @ardastrayed_narrator and @voiceover.patrick
What a unique and interesting blend of romantasy and Greek mythology. The author wonderfully blends the mortal world with the fantasy world and just sucked me in right from the beginning. I was pleasantly surprised with the entire story. There are a lot of characters but they are so fun, witty and the story is perfectly paced that it never felt like overload. Each character is well developed and adds to the story brilliantly.
The dual narration was really the highlight of this story for me. These two breathed so much life into these characters. I was laughing, swooning and completely invested in their journey. @voiceover.patrick is one of my favorite narrators. Out of all the books I've listened to I do not think he has laughed once. Hearing him laugh on 1.7x speed was a delight. Thank me later. @ardastrayed_narrator is a new narrator for me and I'll definitely be back for more. She made completely distinct characters brilliantly.
Definitely pick this up if you enjoy romantasy that tells a fresh new story with wit, banter and spice to keep you smiling and kicking your feet.
My coworkers recommended this book to me as the author is local. I am so glad I got a copy; this was without a doubt a five-star read.
The characters are extremely well written and relatable. I just loved the interactions with all the characters. I loved the main characters, Skye and Cullen. I also loved all of the side characters, my favorite (besides Marnie - the main character's pet cat) would probably be Sara.
I was immediately sucked into the story and could not put it down. I don't want to spoil anything; all I have to say is READ IT! This is a really great read if you are looking for a well written fast-paced (but not too fast that you feel like its missing stuff) fantasy with the Greek gods that will make you feel like you are a part of the story.
The story is written like a standalone, it ties up all the points, and I am so happy with the ending. Though it does feel like the author could write more in this world, and I hope she does. I will immediately purchase it.
Arrows Align was such a blast to read! Skye and Cullen have incredible chemistry, with banter that’s sharp, flirty, and totally addictive. The world of the gods is so fun to dive into, the side characters are genuinely lovable, and the growing tension between gods and Titans adds the perfect amount of drama and stakes. An amazing debut from K.S. Rison — I’m already excited for what comes next!
Arrows Align was an absolute delight. Skye and Cullen have electric chemistry and sharp, witty banter that keeps you coming back for more. The side characters are deeply lovable, the found-family vibes are strong, and the looming war between gods and Titans raises the stakes in all the best ways.
