When I fist saw this book I automatically thought of Laurann Dohner's New Species series, and since I love that series I gave this book a try. While there are similarities to this the Breed series and the New Species series this book is not a carbon copy. I really enjoyed that this book told of the god's rescue and what happens right after their rescue.Sierra is on the team that was called out to rescue the god's, DNA enhanced men who were named after the Greek god's because of their greater minds and powers. When Sierra and Zeus first see each other neither can deny the attraction but Zeus knows right away that Sierra is his and that he will do anything to make her his mate. When the god's are rescued and take over the building they were being held in a storm keeps Sierra and her team locked in with the god's. The more time Sierra and Zeus spend together the harder it becomes for Sierra to deny her feelings for Zeus. The sexy dreams aren't helping either and seem to make it harder and harder for Sierra to stay away from Zeus.Zeus will do anything to keep Sierra, she isn't like any of the woman brought into the facility when they were held captive. Sierra is strong and very independent. When Sierra leaves after her job is done Zeus vows to do anything to get her back, and when that happens anything to finally make her realize they belong together. When Sierra can no longer deny Zeus they begin to fall in love, and when they may finally be settling into a family the god's find out that not only are there more facilities keeping god's and their demon brothers captive (those who couldn't blend in with humans) but that someone who should be helping them may be the one they need to worry about the most.I liked this book I really enjoyed that this book shows us the rescue and what happens right after, how the god's adjust and decide how to build lives and futures for all the god's. Even though while reading this book it was hard not to think of both the New Species series and the Breed series this book took on it's own take and made it's own story, and I'm not even complaining about the similarities because if I'm honest thats what drew  me to this book in the first place. I found this book very interesting and the story kept a great flow and was never boring.Zeus was a great hero who loved Sierra more than anyone else and wouldn't rest till he claimed her and even went so far as to start the claiming without her even knowing. I really liked Sierra she was a very smart capable heroine, she was tough and smart but most importantly she was a great medium between tough and still feminine. I loved that Sierra was tough but not so tough that she made me think she may try to beat up the  hero herself and take his place, but she also wasn't a push over and stood up for what she knew was right.We also learn about many other god's and females that have caught their eyes. I found the story very interesting with all the characters and though Crystal Dawn writes about many characters it never felt overwhelming. I am really interested in seeing how this series goes and to see the progress of this author as this series progresses. Though this series isn't perfect it was a really fast interesting and fun read, filled with action, a possessive hot hero, and a great heroine with a really nice story and side characters to back them up.
