Review: The Return by Jennifer L. Armentrout

The Return
By: Jennifer L. Armentrout

Title: The Return (Titan #1)
Genre: Paranormal Romance, Greek Mythology
Length: 347 pages

Synopsis From Goodreads:

The Fates are cackling their bony asses off…

It’s been a year since Seth made the deal with the gods that pledged his life to them. And so far, the jobs they’ve given him have been violent and bloody–which is kind of all right with him. But now Apollo has something else in mind for Seth. He’s got to play protector while keeping his hands and fingers off, and for someone who really has a problem with restraint, this new assignment might be the most challenging yet.

Josie has no idea what this crazy hot guy’s deal might be, but it’s a good bet that his arrival means the new life she started after leaving home is about to be thrown into an Olympian-sized blender turned up to puree. Either Josie is going insane or a nightmare straight out of ancient myth is gunning for her.

But it might be the unlikely attraction simmering between her and the golden-eyed, secret-keeping Seth that may prove to be the most dangerous thing of all.

Because history has once again been flipped to repeat.

Book 1 in the new adult paranormal TITAN series, spin-off to the best selling COVENANT series.


My Review:

Rating:


Jaw-dropping. Spectacular. Captivating. 

Another amazing book by Jennifer L. Armentrout, she never disappoints! I'm already anticipating Book 2.  This was one book I did not want to put down for anything, it had me drawn in from the very first page. Bad boy Seth and quiet Josie pair up for the adventure of a lifetime. I loved both of these characters from page one! I couldn't wait to see where this roller coaster of a story was going to take me. 

Greek Gods. Hot Guy. Witty Comebacks. What more could a girl want?

The Return is a spin-off series to Jennifer L. Armentrout's best-selling series The Covenant series!! Sadly I have yet to read that series, my goal is to read all of the books she has released so far. Every book I have read of hers has been amazing!! :) Even without reading the previous series I found the story very easy to follow. Jennifer goes into a lot of detail regarding Seth's past which helps you understand what could have happened in the previous series. It always you to paint a picture of what happened to him and caused him to be so closed off and negative.

Titans have been released from Tartarus! Greek Mythology and Romance my two favorite things!! Hercules is one of my favorite Disney movies! :D 

Josie being a demigod so did not see that coming, but that is something we learn very early on in the story.  That is one thing I love about her writing she doesn't draw out the mystery to the point of boredom, Jennifer jumps right into the story, the mysteries and what may be coming down the road. 

The Walking Dead and Supernatural seem to make cameos in many of Jennifer's books. Two shows I love!! Which makes reading them in her books even more enjoyable! :D

The romance was adorable. I loved reading about Seth and Josie's blooming romance. They had such chemistry. Their snarky conversations and Seth's witty comebacks. He definitely has some funny one-liners. Jennifer does an amazing job writing dialogue between two characters. Every conversation feels so real, has if it is happening right in front of you.

I cannot wait to get my hands on Book 2 The Power. I am ready to know what is in store for Josie and Seth. What Titan is going to make an appearance in Book 2? And how is Josie going to cope with her new abilities? This should be interesting!!
