Sekhmet, the Destroyer, has arisen again from her long
imprisonment by her father, Ra. And she’s taking up her old task, what she was
made to do, to end the world itself.
Which falls to the Amazons to stop her, as they would any
Ancient running amok. Gina, the Air Amazon, is assigned to protect Zach,
technological genius whose invention could hand Sekhmet the keys to the apocalypse.
Not that Zach knows it – or about magic, amazons, gods or
the strange guys who can shock him to death with just a touch of their hands.
After the second time he’s rendered unconscious, it’s going to be difficult for
Gina to explain.
Especially since he may be the one for her – her soulmate
just as her sisters have found. Which is going to be hard to pursue with the
jealous and angry Richard, complete with his own agenda and his own ability to electrocute
with a touch
One thing I liked about the relationship in this book is
that we got away from having a male love interest who was an authority figure
over the Amazon – which meant we had less of the orders and instructions that
didn’t work for me in Impetuous Amazon and made Reluctant Amazon so very
dubious. Gina can talk to Zach as an equal, even a superior because of her
greater knowledge and power.
Yet, the relationship was far more annoying to me. We
have the extremely fast-forwarded falling in love from Gina and Zach which is
accompanied by lots of excessively describing how distracting the other is
though they never ever ever feel like this for anyone else, not even women Zach
is sleeping with because her presence for the last few days is just so much
more special than any woman ever. And, yes, she is a 26 year old virgin.
