Dark Restraint by Katee Robert is a gripping and intensely passionate novel, part of the electrifying Dark Olympus series that reimagines classic Greek myths in a modern, sensual context. In this searing retelling of the tale of Ariadne and the Minotaur, Robert weaves a narrative rich with desire, danger, and the complexities of forbidden love.

Ariadne Vitalis finds herself ensnared in the treacherous politics of Olympus. After a betrayal that puts her life in jeopardy, she is forced to seek sanctuary in a city where mercy is a costly commodity. To secure her safety, she must agree to a marriage with Dionysus, a bond born out of necessity rather than passion. Yet, in the depths of her heart, there is only one man who ignites her deepest desires and fears: the Minotaur.

The Minotaur, a dark and formidable presence in Olympus, has always understood his place in the delicate balance of power. He has played along with Minos's schemes, knowing that patience would reward him with Ariadne. Her impending marriage to another man was never part of his plan, and he is determined to claim what he believes is rightfully his. The Minotaur's obsession with Ariadne is as all-consuming as it is dangerous, blurring the line between protector and captor.

Caught between duty and desire, Ariadne struggles with the complex emotions the Minotaur evokes in her. Her impending marriage to Dionysus offers safety and friendship, but it lacks the fiery passion that blazes between her and the Minotaur. Though she knows better than to fall for the Minotaur's dark allure, resisting him proves to be an insurmountable challenge. His touch, his whispered words, and his unyielding presence threaten to make her surrender to a forbidden love that could consume them both and incite chaos throughout Olympus.

In Dark Restraint, Katee Robert explores themes of power, loyalty, and the tumultuous nature of love. It is a story where the mythological past collides with the raw intensity of modern emotions, creating a tantalizing atmosphere that keeps readers hooked from the first page to the last.
