Viper : The Prophecy by Candi Fox and Linny LawlessMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Mythology in Modern Times
I'd probably give this book 3.5 ⭐ if I could
This is the second book in a continuing spin-off series. It's not really a standalone. Viper is a demigod, the son of Odin and Gaia. He is an immortal werewolf dedicated to the fight for justice alongside his immortal brothers, the Odin’s Wolves MC. Moving from Dallas where he was a police officer to White Horse, OK to join his brothers. He meets Billie on his way to White Horse, seeing her fight for a Dark Fae she is desperate to escape from. Billie has been trapped by a contract to a Dark Fae since she was a teenager. She has been forced to kill in a fight ring in a way that hurts her soul.
Billie has no memories of before she was a child wandering the streets, starving and hiding in dumpsters. That is how she got trapped by the Dark Fae when he offered her food and safety.
Drawn to one another immediately when Billie finally escapes, Viper helps her and they are led to search for the answer to a prophecy.
There is a great deal of hot and heavy action in this book. Not just between Viper and Billie but between side characters too, that may have felt a little gratuitous with very little impact on the plot, though I may be wrong and find it’s helpful in future books. Despite the gratuitous sex, there was also some sweet and tender moments and not just romantically but also between friends.
The plot was interesting and we got to meet a vast array of different characters of different races and in different locations, some helpful, others not so much. There is a definite nod to the future but the ending was kind of confusing. I’m not really sure where it was going.
On the whole, it was an enjoyable book.
