Though they carry an eternal curse, the Lords of the Underworld are irresistibly seductive–and unimaginably powerful… Don’t miss a single book in this stunning paranormal series from New York Times bestselling author Gena Showalter! Possessed by the demon of Defeat, Strider cannot lose a challenge without suffering unimaginable pain. For him, nothing stands in the way of victory. Until Kaia, … victory. Until Kaia, an enchanting Harpy, tempts him to the razor’s edge of surrender.
Known among her people as The Disappointment, Kaia must bring home the gold in the Harpy Games or die. Strider is a distraction she can’t afford because he has an agenda of his own–steal first prize, an ancient godly artifact, before the winner can be named. But as the competition heats up, only one prize will matter–the love neither had thought possible….

Okay, the concept of the Harpy games gave this book something really cool. I also loved how Kaia’s sisters rallied around her. Now Strider and Kaia? Their back and forth was amazing.

Love, love, LOVE Lords of The Underworld…every one of them!!!
I’ll be honest here and say, out of all of the Lords of the Underworld books so far, I was not really looking forward to this one. I wanted to read it, but I wasn’t waiting to get to it with any sort of anticipation. I was not a huge fan of Strider (I think I’ve mentioned before that I’m not a particularly competitive person) and was a bit …
An awesome series, i just cant get enough!
