TAKEN BY THE GODS


REVIEW: TAKEN BY THE GODS is the first instalment (and reverse harem romance) in Carly Fall’s adult MORE THAN MEN paranormal, fantasy series set in the author’s SAINT’S GROVE world. This is post office worker Ana Drake, and mythological Greek gods Poseidon, Hades and Dionysus story line.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Ana and Poseidon) TAKEN BY THE GODS takes place in the aftermath of a total lunar eclipse, and the alignment of the planets, that opened a portal to the otherworld releasing all mythical beings for an epic battle of Good versus Evil. For years, Ana Drake, has starred in her own dreams as the only woman in bed with Poseidon, Hades and Dionysus. But a total lunar eclipse will bring Ana’s fantasy to life when the trio of gods land in Saint’s Grove, Virginia searching for the woman with whom they have fallen in love. What ensues is the building relationship between Ana and the gods, and the fall-out when Zeus makes Ana a pawn in a dangerous game of winner takes all.

TAKEN BY THE GODS is a reverse harem romance story line wherein Ana will be worshipped, loved and adored by three gods who make it their mission to protect Ana from Hera and Zeus. The all powerful gods find themselves struggling to protect the woman they love, a woman who must battle between head and heart when the world around her begins to implode. The fast paced premise is entertaining; the romance is erotic and passionate; the characters are flirty and fun.

•••••••••

CLAIMED BY THE GODS

REVIEW: CLAIMED BY THE GODS is the second instalment in Carly Fall’s contemporary, adult MORE THAN MEN erotic, paranormal, fantasy series set in the multi-authored SAINT’S GROVE world. This is the continuing story of post office worker Ana Drake, and mythological Greek gods Poseidon, Hades and Dionysus.

CLAIMED BY THE GODS should not be read as a stand alone as it picks up immediately after the events of book one TAKEN BY THE GODS.

SOME BACKGROUND: In the aftermath of a total lunar eclipse and the alignment of the planets, a portal to the otherworld released all mythical beings including the Greek gods Poseidon, Hades and Dionysus, for an epic battle of Good versus Evil. Having met the gods in her dreams, Ana Drake will soon discover that the gods want Ana for themselves.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Ana and Dionysus) CLAIMED BY THE GODS continues to focus on the building relationship between Ana Drake and the mythological Greek gods Poseidon, Hades and Dionysus. Not wanting to explain her relationship with Poseidon, Hades and Dionysus to the people of Saint’s Grove, Ana soon discovers that the small minded residents have made her a target accusing her of all sorts of deviant acts but someone is stalking our heroine, and her co-worker is making her life miserable in the process. When Ana’s neighbor is attacked, Dionysus takes matters into his own hands, matters that have consequences for the people he loves. What ensues is the growing love between Ana and her gods, and the potential fall-out as Ana is targeted by an unlikely source.

CLAIMED BY THE GODS is a story of friendship, love, betrayal and revenge. The premise is engaging and captivating; the characters are energetic, dangerous, flirty and fun; the romance is passionate and intense


••••••••

BOUND BY THE GODS

REVIEW: BOUND BY THE GODS is the third and final instalment in Carly Fall’s contemporary, adult MORE THAN MEN erotic, paranormal/fantasy/mythology series set in the multi-authored SAINT’S GROVE world. This is the continuing story of teacher’s aid Ana Drake, and the Greek gods Poseidon, Hades and Dionysus.

NOTE: BOUND BY THE GODS is a reverse harem storyline with some scenes of BDSM and F/F sexual situations.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Ana and Hades) BOUND BY THE GODS and the More Than Men series takes place in the aftermath of a total lunar eclipse, and the alignment of the planets, that opened a portal to the otherworld releasing all mythical beings for an epic battle of Good versus Evil in the small town of Saint’s Grove. Months have passed, and Ana has settled into a romantic and sexual relationship with her Greek gods, gods who love her more with each passing day. When her university mentor requires Ana to take over some of his classes, Ana will come face to face with a woman who is hoping for something more from our story line heroine but not all is well in Ana’s less than orderly world, and she finds herself facing her own mortality on more than one occasion.

Meanwhile, Hades suspects something is wrong in the Underworld, and goes in search of the truth only to discover the trouble has found its’ way to Saint’s Grove, trouble that could destroy any chance of happiness for Ana and her Greek Gods. When someone from Hades’ past comes looking for friendship, friendship is the least of their worries when issues of trust begin to destroy Ana’s faith in the men that she loves.

BOUND BY THE GODS is a story of love and sacrifice; betrayal and vengeance; romance and happily ever after. The premise is captivating; the romance is passionate and intense; the characters are dynamic, strong, flirty and powerful. Carly Fall’s MORE THAN MEN series is an imaginative and otherworldly take on the Greek gods and the woman they love.

Fictional books based on Greek Mythology and I have this ongoing love/hate relationship. Some of the books out there I really love (like Percy Jackson), others not so much (like the Goddess test where the Gods are not even recognizable). It therefore always makes me a little nervous to pick up a new book, or in this case series. Especially as a review copy.

But, in this case there was absolutely no reason to have any fear. Quite soon it becomes clear that Fall did do her research and is probably as much of a Greek Mythology Geek as I am. She knows her history, the stories that are told and at moments she embraces it and at times she casts it aside, but that's okay.

Because it leads to a wonderful story with quite recognizable Gods. Hades is quite close to how I've always envisioned him and although I never gave Poseidon and Dionysus as much thought, the characters here do seem to fit what I know about them. Even Persephone, despite the fact that I actually like Hades and Persephone as a love story, really worked for me. Her spirit, her sunshine, her light and then the iron fist and her will. It's the same image the original stories paint of her.

I also really enjoyed the balance between the plot and the relationship. Of course, there is sex in this story and we watch the four of them doing some mundane things too. But, there is always a bigger story arc, a threat looming over them, first subtly and then more and more clearly until the big finales. Not once did I get the feeling that the plot was forgotten or that the characters were forgetting about each other and their longings and needs.

And last but not least: I really had a click with Ana. Although our lives are not that much alike, we also had a lot in common. Our love for the Greek Gods, of course, but also our insecurities, the voices ringing in the back of our mind and how, for a long while, we just let others take advantage of us without saying something about it. It was amazing to see her grow and learn, while never losing herself completely in the process.

Right now I'm very curious to read about Persephone though. She has quite a journey ahead of her too, if you ask me, and I can't wait to read it.

More Than Men Trilogy is a fun and entertaining series. The Gods of mythology come to life, and boy do they interact with humans. In Taken By The Gods, Ana thinks she is just dreaming about having mind-blowing sex with Hades, Poseidon, and Dionysis. But dreams come true, and to make matters more complicated, they tell her that their big brother Zeus also wants her. That means that his wife, Hera, will want her dead. Ana's boring life just became intensely complicated. This story was engaging, as Ana's Gods work together to save the woman that they all love. Now, what woman would not want a trio of gods in her reverse harem?!

The next book is Claimed By The Gods. The book begins where the last book ends. So these books should be read in order. They are not standalone. Now that Ana and her gods, Hades, Poseidon, and Dionysis, are safe from Zeus, she realizes that they want her. Their relationship was coming together in the first book, but now we see it start to develop. We see betrayal in this one and a couple of twists that are a bit of a shock. We also see the prejudices that come to bear when living in a town with small-minded people.

The last book is Bound By The Gods. This one is very intense on the romance side. Some scenes are quite erotic. Ana and her gods are in a beautiful relationship where steamy does not even begin to describe their sex life. But of course, nothing to do with love comes easy. In this installment, we see that love means sacrifice for some. There are more betrayals and some acts of revenge that make you say YEAH!

These three books were entertaining, and the characters were engaging. It was a joy to read this series.

ONE DELECTABLE COLLECTION!!!
Extreme heat! Carly mesmerizes with this satisfying block busting bombshell with all the protective, possessive, alpha male deliciousness you can handle. She not only hit the motherload, she blasted the vault wide open in this delightfully, delectable wild ride. A swirling multitude of baffling circumstances and astonishing events that leave you breathless, craving more. Pushing forward through the trials and tribulations along with a horde of shocking twists and horrifying turns fuse this bad boy together beautifully. A spinning, twisting vortex of inadvertent happenstance and unforseen mishaps propels your spinning emotions into play fluidly. The drama, angst, intrigue, abuse and suspense along with a boatload of secrets, blaze through melding this bad boy to life beautifully. The characters personalities are authentic and realistic with traits and qualities that blend with one another in a perfect balance. The scenes are strikingly sharp with abundant details and descriptions you have no problem picturing each scenario creating a colorful backdrop that makes the storyline pop. Fantastic job Carly, thanks for sharing this bad boy with us.

The love of three Gods. After being abused by her husband Ana was downtrodden, scared, and unhappy and has a dead-end part time job she hates. The emotional scars he inflicted carried on even after he died. The only happiness she has is when she sleeps and dreams. She dreams of the Greek Gods Hades, Dionysius, and Poseidon. They come to her in her dreams and have amazing sex with her. But when she wakes up it is back to her boring unfulfilled life. Then an astrological event occurs in her small town, opening a portal to other realms, and her three gods come to her to protect and love her. What follows is a series of events where they have to protect her from Zeus, a devil from her past, and a past lover from one of the Gods. Through it all she will come into her own, become strong from their love and devotion, and even have an amazing future she never thought possible.

This collection contains the three books that make up the trilogy, including: Taken by the Gods, Claimed by the Gods, and Bound by the Gods.

In Saint’s Grove, Virginia, Ana Drake has had a difficult life, saved from despair through her dreams of loving three of the Greek gods: Poseidon, Hades and Dionysus. An astrological event (a lunar eclipse, alignment of planets, and the resulting opening of a portal) allows them to arrive at Ana’s front door in person, here to protect her from the danger that is coming for her.

This trilogy will let you share their exciting story as her three dream men fight to save Ana’s life and find themselves falling deeper in love while Zeus and others play their deadly power games for their own pleasure and amusement! Each book follows the other, so the reader can enjoy the entire story from beginning to end. Don’t let this one get away!

A breach between worlds has opened when a once in a lifetime occurrence, where the planets all aligned and a full eclipse took place that Ana finds herself face to face with the Gods of her dreams: Hades, Poseidon and Dyonisus. They came to protect her from Zeus and his games and to claimed her if she would choose them as hers.

How would Hades, Poseidon and Dyonisus faired while living a human life to be with the love of their life? How will Kerberos, Hades hellhound, fit in? You will have to read this gem to find out.

If you love Greek Mythology like me and steamy sex scenes, you will devoured this trilogy just like i did.

Ana comes face to face with the Greek gods she’s been dreaming of...and the are all tantalizingly alpha males. They get up to naughty fun in between solidifying a bourgeoning square relationship, facing off with Zeus, Ana’s ex back from hell, and of course murder attempts on Ana’s life from none other...Hades ex Persephone. We get to see Ana emotionally mature and be a confident woman with the help of her gods. I truly enjoyed this collection. It really does give you the feels at different points in the trilogy.

This was a great series of books. Ana had been dreaming about her gods and didn’t know everything was real. When her past and Hades’ came back to haunt her she had three men who were willing to do anything to keep her safe. I didn’t like Ana’s attitude sometimes because if she had the strength to do what she did then she shouldn’t let people walk over her. I understood her insecurities because you have to believe in yourself before you believe everyone else.

This set of 3 books is a very creative way at looking into the lives of 3 greek god brought into contemporary life. The first book gets straight to the steamy intimate scenes, which arent lacking throughout the 3 book series. Fun, new story lines for these 3 ancient greek gods, and their lover Anna.
Please be aware there are triggers in this series including domestic abuse, insinuation of rape, incest, and BDSM.

This is the 1st time I've read books written by Carly Fall; she has done a great job at writing a good set of books; I can’t wait to read more of her books.

The story lines caught my attention at the very beginning and kept me interested throughout the entire book.

I loved the chemistry between the characters.
