Customer Reviews

5 Stars - Wildly Imaginative!!
For Lyon, variety is the spice of life. The youngest of the Satyr brothers, Lyon's feral appetite for carnal pleasure is legendary. Though not thrilled at the prospect of settling down with one woman, he has dutifully journeyed to Paris to find the last of King Feydon's FaerieBlend daughters. His older brothers Nicholas and Raine have located and wed two of the sisters and the time has come for Lyon to seek his bride.

Juliet Rabelais was orphaned at birth. Blessed with a flair for culinary arts and a tempting figure, Juliet is desired by many men. Allowing herself to feel love has only proved to be painful and deadly, so she vows to avoid it. Without family to turn to, Juliet lives at the mercy of her malevolent guardian who employs her as his prize courtesan. An unwilling participant in his evil schemes, Juliet has spent the past three years living with fear and loneliness as her constant companion.

When his family lost its wealth to the phylloxera plague, the bitter Monsieur Valmont became the proprietor of a house of debauchery. Having spied Juliet's "talents" three years ago, Valmont has employed her well to his advantage. Fear keeps Juliet from fleeing and he will use that fear to procure the information he needs to destroy the Satyr vineyards. Driven by jealousy and madness, Valmont delights in the suffering of others.

A chance meeting ignites an explosion of passion between Lyon and Juliet setting them down a path of danger and deceit. When inhabitants of Else World and Earth World threaten to lay claim on those most precious to them, Lyon and Juliet turn to each other for salvation. As The Calling draws near, can Lyon provide protection to Juliet by joining with her during the sacred rituals of Moonful, or will other powerful forces succeed in keeping them apart?

LYON, the highly anticipated third book of the LORDS OF SATYR series is well worth the wait. Filled with romance, intrigue, and suspense, LYON is a thrilling read from start to finish. Wildly imaginative and wickedly erotic, this book will keep readers feverishly turning the pages...and in need of a cold beverage nearby! Elizabeth Amber has done a fantastic job bringing this series to life and LYON is without a doubt one of the most "unputdownable" books of the year!

5 blue ribbons from Romance Junkies
Ever since the Lords of Satyr received the letter from King Feydon last spring one after brother after another has left their estate to go in search of the King's daughters. At the King's request the brothers are expected to marry his FaerieBlend daughters, only to leave their estate at the same time would have resulted in the gate between EarthWorld and ElseWorld being left unprotected.

Nicolas and Raine have already located and brought two of the sisters under Satyre protection - not to mention fallen in love with them. Now it's Lyon's turn and his search will take place in Paris, France - where the last sister is supposed to be found according to King Feydon.

Lyon's resigned to marry the last of King Feydon's daughters but first he has some carnal needs that need addressing. He selects a human but then loses interest in her when he hears the sound of nymphs crooning. Nymphs would be far better suited to handle his desires, besides they're notorious gossips and he's hopeful they can provide information on the female he seeks. After locating the source of the singing he notices a scent that tells him his intended is near. That she is of the sea is a little worrisome but not insurmountable. Is it possible that he's found the last sister on his very first day in Paris?

Juliette Rabelais learned of her faerie abilities several years ago but she's never learned how to control them. Accused of murder, she lives in fear of being arrested even though she knows that she's innocent. Valmont, her guardian, uses her worry against her while using her talents in the kitchen to his advantage. When he discovers Lyon's interest in Juliette he forces her into eliciting information regarding the Satyr vineyards. Valmont's own family's fortunes were destroyed because of the blight of phylloxera which has destroyed vineyards all across France.

It isn't until Valmont acts even more inappropriately than usual and her good friend Fleur disappears that Juliette realizes her situation is getting dire and opts to leave. Only after leaving Valmont's townhouse she runs into Lyon and discovers he's ailing and what's worse - she's to blame for his ailment. Fortunately she isn't above doing whatever's necessary to save him.

The LORDS OF SATYR series has completely enchanted me since the very beginning. Each story is so different and full of unexpected events that readers quickly find themselves immersed in the characters and setting. In LYON there's a surprising twist that occurs early on which sets the tone for the rest of the book - and yet doesn't give anything away. Elizabeth Amber brings mythological creatures to life in a historical setting with delicious results and I, for one, couldn't wait for each new addition to this series. Fortunately there will be at least one more book in this series, DOMINIC, THE LORDS OF SATYR will be released in March 2009.

My favorite Lords of Satyr story yet!
Upon the death of King Feydon, the three Satyr brothers must find and wed the king's three half-mortal, half-Faerie daughters. His elder two brothers have found their brides, and now Lyon must find his own in the city of Paris. He only hopes to be half as lucky in his match as his brothers were in theirs, who both found wives whom they adore.

When he finds Juliette, every instinct within him yearns for the lovely faerie princess. Wooing her, however, proves difficult - something that Lyon, who has always had his choice of women, never anticipated. He must bring every sensual weapon in his considerable arsenal to bear in his pursuit of Juliette...

But there are forces that conspire not only to keep them apart, but to destroy them utterly. They must overcome their enemies before they can find their future together.

With both of the previous stories in her LORDS OF SATYR series, Elizabeth Amber has delivered some fantastic twists, especially in RAINE. I will admit that my expectations were high for LYON, a book I anticipated with considerable relish. Ms. Amber did not disappoint me.

As with her sisters in the previous stories, Juliette has her own distinctive magical talents, very different from her siblings. Unlike her sisters, she employs a few of hers with some regularity, displaying a control that only comes from practiced use. Of course, there are some abilities she doesn't have quite the same control over, which cause her some consternation in public, a place she avoids whenever possible. She is also a virtual captive in her present circumstance, afforded the dubious protection of her guardian, Monsieur Valmont, an evil man who has more motives than anyone suspects. Freedom is not such an easy feat for a woman in her time, with her challenges, held by a man with the kind of ties on her that Monsieur Valmont holds.

Although I certainly fell for both Nicholas and Raine in their stories, Lyon is the brother who most intrigued me. He has always had a playfulness about him that appealed to me, and that was clearly evident in LYON, much to my delight. It was a perfect balm to the pain and fear that plague Juliette. It was truly these qualities, combined with his relentless sensuality, which broke through her considerable defenses.

I mentioned there were twists to the plot, and these come in the form of Juliette's talents and the story itself. Suffice it to say that there are more skeletons lurking in her closet than even she knows about. I had a few of the plot twists figured out by the end of the book, but not all, much to my delight!

LYON, LORDS OF SATYR is a compelling paranormal romance set in historical Paris and Italy. With fascinating characters guaranteed to capture the heart from page one, this sexy and suspenseful romance is much more than the sum of its parts - it is a story that will stay with this reviewer for a long time to come.
