Review: Series keeps getting better with each succeeding book

The author does a great job of building this series with each story.  Previous characters are drawn in but you don't feel like you're reading the same thing over and over.  I'm not sure how the 2nd and 3rd would stand up as standalones if you haven't read the previous, but why would you deny yourself the pleasure of reading them in order and this bundle is attractively priced for 3 full length books.  There is a 4th book after this and it's even better.I love how the author  incorporates the Greek myths and how they're drawn to the female characters (it is because they too have some kind of Greek god relation in their backgrounds, some more distant than others).  I love it when the Southern Wind Chrys speaks in particular.  Admittedly there were times when I felt that Greek mythology was being played a bit too loose (Ares and Mars coexisting?  huh, I understood one to be the Greek version and the other the Roman).  But overall, I think there was great world building.  Certainly the overarching story of how to deal with Eurus, the evil brother, ties the 2nd/3rd stories nicely.I particularly applaud the author for not going for an over-the-top HEA.  Some authors, for fear of disappointing readers, try to have all things positive occur (people who had been killed are miraculously brought back, etc.) and the author doesn't which makes this story more emotional, engrossing, and NOT formulaic which can be easy trap to fall into when you're doing a series.
