Author Summary
She
stole his fate…
Lachesis
is a Fate, an ancient goddess in whose hands our destinies are unraveled. When
she’s not weaving fortune, she does what she wants when she wants. That all
changes when she runs into the man she craves but prayed to never see again.
And she'll soon discover the god of terror can really hold a grudge.
Now
it’s his turn…
My Thoughts
One
series…three novellas by three different authors…Brilliant idea!
This
series tells a story of the Fates of Greek mythology – Clotho, Lachesis and
Atropos. Clotho spins new life, Lachesis sets the destiny and length of one’s
life, and Atropos ends life.
Stealing Fate is the story of Lachesis (who
modernized her name to be Lacey while on Earth) and Phobos (otherwise known as
the God of Terror and son of Ares and Aphrodite), and their long overdue reunion. With vengeance on his mind, Phobos has been
looking for Lacey for centuries, hell bent on exacting revenge for her betrayal. After she basically falls in his lap, it was
time for her to get her comeuppance. And so their adventure begins.
Some
may not feel this way but I’m a big fan of novellas and short stories. It takes
an incredible amount of talent to write a good story with just the right amount
of detail that will capture a reader’s interest, hold that interest and leave a
reader with a satisfied ending. Berinn Rae is one of the very special authors
who have this talent.
I was
immediately intrigued with the mythological element of the series to begin
with. Then, my curiosity was piqued after discovering the tragic past of the
hero and heroine; enthralled with the intensity of their passion and completely
engaged throughout the story wondering how it would all play out. Their desire
for each other was intoxicating from the very beginning and felt throughout the
entire novel.
In such
a short story, Rae made me love these characters, fret when obstacles were
thrown in their way and want to slap Hera silly. Those are some pretty varying
emotions to feel from a 100-page novella. A true testament to this authors
mastery of the written word.
Happy Reading!!

I have been seeing this around and it's my kind of book. I love that its based on Greek myth, Indie and a novella!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the feature, I'm convinced I'll definitely like this.
I just loved it Braine! And the good thing i forgot to mention is that each of the three are stand alone novels even though its technically a series. When its released, please come back and let me know what you thought. I'd love to hear!
