I received a free copy from the author and voluntarily reviewed it.
I think this was my favorite book in this serial yet. Things pick up and heat up in this book. There are some new things we learn about Vasily and the other men who live there. Amaya spends some more time at their house and there are some more scenes involving her interacting with the men and a bit of heat as well in this book. There is an interesting tidbit we learn, but it did bother me a bit how we only get small parts of information and there is some reason about some rules why they can't tell her more. And in a long book it wouldn't be so bad as you can just read on, but here you have to wait for the next book to be released. Luckily the books get released pretty soon after one another.
This book takes off were the previous one ended, after a slightly confusing situation for the main character. I like how we got to read a bit more about the men and see Amaya interact with them. I still don't fully feel their connection, but I was happy to read about them a bit more and it's obvious they are all attracted to her and she to them. There also are some bits were Amaya struggles with her feelings and how she is attracted to more of them.
The book ends in the middle of a scene and I am curious to see how that continues and to learn more about Amaya's role in all of this. I do feel like the next two books will have some reveals and we will find out more about what's going on.
This book had a bit more heat than the previous ones, there is a sex scene and another pretty intimate scene later on. The romance does progress a bit fast with how they hardly know each other, but it's still a fun read. And it's mostly them acting on their attracting and getting comfortable around each other so far. I liked how Amaya is a bit nervous at times, which felt realistic. And I liked how Brody was quite perceptive of how she was feeling.
I did have some trouble remembering who forming a clear image for each of the men and remembering what we knew of them so far at times. For some of them I had a clearer image in my head than other and from some I couldn't remember the description we got from them. There's also one more character we meet in this book, who will be a member of the harem as well I think. I liked how each character had a bit of a different personality, although we don't get to know them too well yet. While in most reverse harem books each male seems to have a central characteristic, that was less so here, but there were still different from each other. I just wanted to know them all a bit better as its still pretty limited what we know.
To summarize: This was a fun read. I liked the direction things are going and how there are some things we learn about Amaya and the men. But I am not a fan of how they can't tell her everything yet. The romance heats up in this book and while it does progress a bit fast, it is a good read. I liked how the men are different, but don't have such a clear central characteristic as in most reverse harem books. I did have some trouble getting a clear image of all the men in my head and I do hope we get to know them all a bit better in the last two books. All in all this was a good addition to the serial and I am curious what will happen next.

In Part 2, the vampire Vasily offered Amaya a job working with horses, grooming and feeding them. She was familiar with horses and agreed. He drove them to the wealthy area named The Ridge where he lives! He mounted his horse, but when he reached for her hand, his mysterious “power” threw her to the ground. The story picks up here where Vasily asks her to put his horse away while he goes off to do something. Amaya had questioned a vampire with “powers”, and he had admitted he is not exactly a vampire! But he wouldn’t tell her what he is.
As she struggled with the bit, she was delighted to hear Forrest’s voice ask if he could help. It turned out he lived here with his brothers. Since he worked in the stable too, he helped her learn the job. And he told her that, although his magic had not worked for a long time, she was special. Her powers could be unlocked if she let them help her, but it scared her. She sat under a tree on the lawn to meditate. She kept her eyes closed and addressed Vasily when his scent made her aware he was beside her. She mentioned Bodhi’s meditation previously, only to hear him say he was there on her other side! She heard tiny laughter above, and when the men asked her what she heard, she told them it was the laughter of the fae in her dreams. Both men asked her to tell them more. She sees their glances at each other, but they won’t tell her what they know.
Amaya calls her friend, Jules, to talk about the fact Vasily wants to drink from her, to be her “first” vampire. Jules suggests she ask one of the brothers to be there too to pull him off her neck if he loses control. So she asks Bodhi. As she lifts her wrist to Vasily, she sees his teeth are not fangs, and Bodhi explains Vasily is a hybrid. She has so many questions. When they go down to dinner later, she is introduced to another brother, Cedar. They can tell her only a few things now, about how Vasily needs to get home through the warlocks’ power – but they have none. They think Amaya is a conduit, but need to perform some spells to see if she is. She begins to learn more, but not nearly enough. Will she agree to help them – even if it means Vasily will leave forever? And how does Candy, the maid, fit in with what is going on?
Once again, I was drawn in even deeper by this intriguing story. The air of mystery started in Part 1 continues as Amaya visits Vasily’s amazing home and meets his roommates. Her visit to the stable gives us more clues, yet it raises more questions, deepening the mystery even further. We know there is something different about Amaya, and a few more details are given. Being another short segment, the book doesn’t go into elaborate detail, but it gives the reader more and definitely holds interest. I know much more is coming and this book continues to promise an exciting series ahead. Although I received a copy of this book, I voluntarily chose to write an honest review and I will purchase the combined full version of the book when it becomes available.

To me this is the best book out of all three in this series so far! I absolutely loved finally getting to meet all the guys that live with Vasily and why they need Amaya! Of course there are still so many questions after the ending of this book, properly more now then before reading this book! And of course who does not hate Candy right now? I would want to punch her with the way she acts! Vasily is still mysterious and you just pine for more time with him and Amaya but then there are the 4 brothers!! All I can say is....WOW!! This is a fantastic continuation to the series and once I started this book it captivated my attention and once again left me yelling for more immediately!! I can’t wait to read book 4 and to learn more about where Vasily is from, who the hell is Candy and why is Amaya so connected to the brothers! Highly recommended series, however, if you do not like short stories then wait for all 5 books to be released! Can’t wait for more!!

Amaya has now met all four brothers and the more she learns of what they can tell her, the more confused she is. One thing is for certain, she’s drawn to these men in a way she can’t understand but she’s willing to explore these feelings and this magnetic pull that she feels towards Vasily and the four brothers. Things heat up with Amya, Vasily and Bodhi and it’s a sexual experience none has ever experienced before and Amaya wants more. She had a close call and is beginning to really question these powers that she supposedly possess. More mystery, more intrigue and a world unknown. Can’t wait for more Chloe.

This is part 3 of the Synergist series and this is the best one yet. I don’t want to give away too many spoilers because yes people it’s that good. Amaya finally has a few questions answered but there are still more that confuse her. Amaya has a sexual experience with Bodhz and Vasily and she wants more. Fantastic read and it’s getting more exciting as it goes along, great characters and a very well written storyline but you do need to read book 1 to understand the characters. I highly recommend this book it’s definitely well worth the read.

We’re really getting into the action now. We finally meet the last missing Stetler brother and we also get even more hints about what’s going on and even a few elusive answers to some of the questions that have been plaguing Amaya. But for every hint and answer that’s uncovered, three more questions spring up to take its place. Watch out for the cliff at the end of this one; it’s steep and it’s sudden.
I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book.

Things are getting interesting and really heating up. What women wouldn’t want to be the center of some gorgeous men. She is learning more about herself and maybe some of the secrets will be revealed. Lots of hotness in this one.
