The Blurb from Goodreads: Kate Winters has won immortality. But if she wants a life in the Underworld with Henry, she’ll have to fight for it. Becoming immortal wasn’t supposed to be the easy part. Though Kate is about to be crowned Queen of the Underworld, she’s as isolated as ever. And despite her growing love for Henry, ruler of the Underworld, he’s becoming ever more distant and secretive. Then, in the midst of Kate’s coronation, Henry is abducted by the only being powerful enough to kill him: the King of the Titans. As the other gods prepare for a war that could end them all, it is up to Kate to save Henry from the depths of Tartarus. But in order to navigate the endless caverns of the Underworld, Kate must enlist the help of the one person who is the greatest threat to her future. Henry’s first wife, Persephone.

The Review: "If I were a better man, I would be able to show you the love and affection you deserve. As I am not, I can only offer you what I'm capable of giving. But I assure you, just because I do not show it, doesn't mean I do not feel it.”
Last year Aimee Carter left me astounded when I read her
debut novel The Goddess Test and now Goddess
Interrupted is here and she has done it yet again. Goddess Interrupted is a captivating, intriguing and magical read –
one that I managed to devour in 24 hours and I’m dying for more.
Kate Winters has spent the last six months on summer
vacation, away from Henry as per their arrangement. But now it’s time to go
back and be crowned as Queen of the Underworld and be forever tied to Henry.
There is nothing more in the world that Kate wants than to be with Henry but when
Henry starts acting secretive and distant with her, she starts questioning
everything she was once lead to believe.
Soon she finds out that Cronus – The King of the Titans, is trying to
escape his prison and he is hell bent on killing the one’s Kate cares about
most. When Henry is kidnapped by Cronus,
it’s down to Kate to try and rescue him but she needs help from the one person
she never wanted to meet…..Persephone’s…..Henry’s ex wife. Can Kate and Henry
overcome the obstacles of their relationship and can Kate keep all her loved ones
safe?
Goddess Interrupted
is absolutely beautiful read and I loved every minute of it. I started reading it and I honestly couldn’t put it down but I have to admit, I was a little
disappointed at the start of it. After the ending in The Goddess Test, I was
expecting Kate and Henry’s relationship to be completely different because they
are in love with each other now. So admittedly, the first few chapters threw me because
everything wasn’t all hearts and flowers between them but, what I got was
something so much more. It was so raw, emotional and real – that it was so
heartbreakingly good and it bought me to tears a few times. Kate and
Henry’s relationship is really put through the tests during this book and I felt for both of
their situations but I’m just glad they became a stronger couple for it. Their moments
together at the end of the book really were a joy to read, I loved every minute
of it and I think Aimee Carter did a fantastic job creating a couple that do
have faults but are perfect for each other in every way.
This time around we get to know our favourite Gods all the
more and I thought they all bought a level of mystery with them. Each and every
one of them has two personalities; their human side and their Immortal side, and
trying to unravel them was really fascinating. I especially loved getting to
know Ava better and of course, Henry was the best to get to know more.
What I enjoyed about this book so much was how unpredictable
it is. I honestly didn’t know what was going to come next and let me say, I am
so shocked with the results….but in such a good way that I need the final book
now. Honestly, the ending of the book is going to blow you’re mind and leave
you speechless – yeah it’s that good!
Overall, Goddess
Interrupted is just as good as The Goddess Test if not, even better! And I
cannot wait to see what is next installed for us.
A huge thank you to Mira Ink for giving me the opportunity

It's very hard to choose, but I think my favourite gods are Aphrodite and Dionysus. But also Artemis and Athena. And Zeus. And Hermes....
Hermes or Prometheus, I think.

Love, Carina
I really like Artemis....I alway wanted to know how to shoot from a bow :D
hmm , Artemis!
I seriously have to get into this series I haven't even read the Goddess Test yet I love greek myth since I read Percy Jackson early last year so I know I would really enjoy this series. Great review!
I'm a huge fan of books about greek mythology so I should really start this series! I'm so glad it lived upto the first book! Fab review!
I like Hades, Artemis, Aphrodite, Dionysus & Apollo
My favourite goddess is Thalia, she is the Goddess of festivities and banquets. And I do so love a good party!
Thank you for this giveaway. c:
Great review! You have gotten me to change my mind about this book! I wasn't sure if I wanted to read it after the first book not going so well for me, but now I am definitely curious. :)
My favourite Greek goddess is Athena :) Thanks for the giveaway!
My favorite goddess is Athena! :)
I really like Zeus
My fave is probably Aphrodite!
I think that would be Athena.
I'd say Apollo, simply because he's a hottie and he's the God of the sun, prophecies, archery, healing, and music, among other things. Otherwise it would be Ares because he's the God of war and he is dangerous... and if he's good enough for Aphrodite he's good enough for me! :-)
Yay, I'm so glad you loved Goddess Interrupted! I loved The Goddess Test and I've been dying to read the sequel for months now. Thanks for the opportunity!:)
As for the gods... Well, I just saw the movie Immortals today and I've got to say that Poseidon is one of my favorites: that's one hot, bad@ss and mischievous with some cool powers god!:))
My favourite is Zeus.
Since I happen to be greek my favorite goddess is Aphrodite. She was so sexy and naughty and seductive and was always impressed by the stories in mythology about her!! xx Menia
I love Athena cause she's the goddess with it all, really intelligent, beautiful and can kick ass cause she's also the goddess of war! I like Posidon and Zeus as well, and Hermes!
I still haven't read The Goddess Test thought I'm dying to .. I love Greek mythology and I still haven't read a YA book about it. I'm glad you enjoyed Goddess Interrupted so much Donna. I love when books are unpredictable too .. it's always annoying to figure out what's going to happen at the end of the book very easily and quickly.
Thanks for the amaing giveaway !! It's so generous of you to offer your copy of the book, particularly since you liked it that much :) !! It's also very sweet to open the giveaway to Europe : HAPPY FRENCH ME !! :)
If I had t choose my favourite goddess I'd go with Athena because I love how brave and kind she is.
I also love Poseidon and Zeus !!
Thanks again :)

My favorite is Aphrodite goddess of love
My favorite one is Poseidon :)
My favourite has always been Athena :)
Thanks so much for this giveaway! I like Apollo, cause in the Percy Jackson books he's hilarious, or Athena, cause she's strong and wise!
Poseidon mostly because my daughter has watched Percy Jackson about 4 billion times, oh and she wants to be a mermaid and live under the sea with him:)
It's a tough tie between Apollon and Athena. ^^
Aphrodite
My name is Karina, I'm someone who has lived a life seemingly in the background, I must say this final indignity I have suffered almost too much to endure. You see, I have been sickly and weak since the day I was born and doomed to go through all my life a weakling. I seemed to have always suffered from one illness or another and could never play with the other children as I so desperately wanted to. Mother always made such a big fuss over me, also, making the situation worse as the other boys teased me mercilessly after they saw it. I was browsing the internet searching on how i could be transformed into a powerful when i came across the email of a man named Lord Mark. who was a VAMPIRE so I told him that I has always dreamed of becoming a VAMPIRES, All i did was just to follow the procedure that i was been told, and i bet you that procedure I took change my entire life to something i ever desire, freedom, sickness free, pains free, fame, influence, connections and even more that i can. Thanks to Lord Mark. Do you want a life full of interesting things? Do you want to have power and influence over others? To be charming and desirable? To have wealth, health, and longevity? contact the vampires creed today via email: Vampirelord7878@gmail.com
