She has a dark past, but it’s Ana Drake’s present that heats up during the night when she finds herself in the fiery embraces of Poseidon, Hades and Dionysus as they visit her dreams. Ana’s world is turned upside down, though when the seams of the universe open and paranormal entities flood the town including her three Greek Gods, especially since they bring some disturbing news.
The first story in this ‘More Than Men’ trilogy is quite a fascinating read with strong, bold characters that demand the readers’ attention. The story starts off hot and just keeps getting hotter as Ana is faced with the prospect that her dreams could come very real if she can open herself up to the possibility but of course that it quite an emotional bomb which has turmoil flowing from the pages. But the chemistry between the three gods and Ana is quite undeniable and the passion is scorching hot while the romance and courting is quite sweet.
The plot is fast paced and full of suspense and excitement as the Ana has also caught the attention of Zeus and his selfish desires which if he claims Ana makes her a target of Hera. This is obviously an ongoing story but this part is delightful, exhilarating read with an epic magical battle that threatens to destroy Ana or at the very least puts the future that Poseidon, Hades, and Dionysus hopes to have with Ana in jeopardy.
Ana (the MFC) has been having steamy dreams about Hades, Dionysus and Poseidon for years but thats all they are. So she gets the shock of her life when her dream guys turn up in reality and not only are they hot as hell they all claim they’re here to help her. As you can imagine with 3 hot men there’s plenty of sex and laughs. This book has plenty of both as well as a***hole gods and a brilliant cliffhanger ending. Loved It. Bring on the next book
3.75 stars—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.
What would you REALLY do if your mythical sexual fantasies appeared in the chaos created after a once in a lifetime lunar event?
Answer: You run. Fast.
Ana has two selves. Her dream self has no inhibitions and is insatiable. While real world Ana abhors confrontation and attempts to stay off everyones radar. They are about to clash.
I really enjoyed the twist with the gods. Can’t say I would’ve put those three specific deities together but they made an interesting group.
That bad guy! Finally someone called him for what he is.
This is a good starting point for the author. As always, I love a good dual POV. I can see the series really growing into something substantial. I’m already anticipating Hades’ book.

The first book I read by this author and I was completely hooked on this story so much. I loved Ana and her gods. She had been having dream about them and then one day they actually show up to protect her. Just really enjoyed this one and absolutely can not wait til the next book comes out, need more.
I have read other stories by Carly Fall and was excited to read one of hers that wasn’t aliens or shifters. Of course Carly did not disappoint. Right from the beginning I was pulled into Ana’s life telling her to stand up for herself, push back, just say no! So when Poseidon, Hades, and Dionysus came waltzing into her real life and not just her dreams, I had tingles of what was to come next. Even if you know Greek Mythology or not, the personalities of the three Gods just remind you of someone you know and you can relate to all of the characters. An amazing start to this series and I am hoping the next one comes out soon!

A little town called Saint’s Grove, Virginia where unexplained things can and have happened.
Ana Drake, postal worker has been having erotic dreams that seems so real although in life she is more of a meek quiet woman.
Poseidon (God of the Ocean), Dionysus (God of wine and fertility) and Hades (God of the underworld) come to visit Ana in her dreams and have fallen for her.
One magical night (before Halloween) the world seems to just open up and creatures from nightmares are released into the real world. Vampires, Shifters, Ghosts, Demons and Three Gods are unleashed into the town.
The trio of hunks are on a mission to not only see the woman they have all fallen for but to protect her from none other than Zeus himself who has also decided he would like the little human woman.
Now, the problem is they only have six days to convince Ana that they truly do exist before they have to return to their own world, and yes the dreams she has been having actually happened. All while protecting her from the advances of Zeus.
Can the three hunky Gods capture the heart of the woman who has captured theirs before time is up or will Zeus win and destroy all they hoped to have.
May the best Gods win!

I loved this book, and the different personalities that come through into play, it started out with a bang and ended with one too! Definitely hot and steamy. Good writing and multiple POV. HEA with an added surprise. Three Gods that have been watching Ann for years and been visiting her in her dreams only to turn her world upside down when they appear in front of her, to protect her from Zeus that want to claim her for him self. Ann has an intriguing back story of hurt and abuse that I’m sure will come out as this story continues. Excited for the next one!
I liked this storyline, it started out strong and kept me enthralled all the way through. But it definitely felt like a starter story, like it was a lead up to the real juicy stuff. Then that ominous cliffhanger ending was the icing on that cake. I very much look forward to the next book and to getting more of Hades in the bedroom!
An adult themed St. Groves story. Plenty of drama and action to keep the read interesting. The story line of St. Groves took on an erotic twist when Ana’s dreams walked down the street to meet her in person instead of just in their dreams.
