This is Max's story (who we met in book one). Max happens to have a fascination with all things Atlantis. Sabine happens to be descended from Altanteans. Sabine and her aunts (one of whom is the 3rd Guardian) have moved to London because of the "prophecy." Someone is killing generals who can't be bought and Guardians to steal the elixir in an attempt to take England's army (and thus the world).
While I enjoyed this, I wish there hadn't been so much "I can't love you because of Reasons." There was too much of that. I did like that there were 2 "evil-doers" in this one (with completely different goals). All-in-all, this was a fun, Indiana Jones type romance with some supernatural and legend through in.

Esme is a 27 year old book loving, intelligent spinster. Fielding hunts treasures/antiquities for money. They cross paths when she is kidnapped and he is hired to find Pandora's box.
I really liked this. I liked the mix of adventure, mythology, and romance. Of course Pandora's box is opened; but not only by the easily guessed, but others too. Nice twist on the Raven's identity. Interesting how families have a lack of communication which could have solved some issues (but then Fielding and Esme might never have met, so that wouldn't have worked!) much earlier. Just talking. It's amaze balls how it helps so much, shocker that.
Interested in the next, Max's story (who is fascinated with the legend of Atlantis). Graeme's, how made an appearance in this one at the end, is book 3.

I just couldn’t get into this book. I did finish it but i didn’t really care for it. I felt the ending was rushed. The plot seemed to be all over the place and not consistent as far as I am concerned. I also didn’t connect with the characters. I am sure someone else will like this book a lot more. It just wasn’t for me.

I liked this mysterious romance woven around Jack the Ripper. I received this book for free and I voluntarily chose to review this. I've given this a 5* rating. Because of the violent content, this is not for the Under 18 readers. There is a lot of graphic description that is not for the faint of heart. However, there is a cliff hanger, as it does not show them catching the suspect. I did find some of their investigative techniques interesting. This will be in your thoughts long after you finish this.
