Posted: July 10, 2014

Jaimela, also known as Cerveau to her fellow dancers of the Midnight Mystery Lounge, has slowly been coming awake to past memories, and it's driving her crazy. Crazy enough that this Amazon wants to find out what there might be BEHIND THE CURTAIN. What it leads her to is far more than she expected to ever find.

Dimitri Abraxas has served the pleasure of the Goddess Demeter and is on a quest to find Prometheus's flame. He has searched long and hard and will not let anything or anyone get in the way of his quest. Until he sees Jaimela ...then he wonders if perhaps he can mix pleasure with his duty.

The Arcana Royale Casino holds magic and secrets that many have tried to decipher and a few have managed. Dimitri finds he must answer the Sphinx's questions and ask the right ones to be able to find what he wants most ... but will it be the flame or the Amazon?

The magical, mysterious and sexy world that is the Arcana Royale Casino is brought to life in BEHIND THE CURTAIN. This is book 5 of author Heather Long's Soul Girls series, and as hard as that must be, I find it to be just as fresh and new as the others. Jaimela is a strong, smart and somewhat snarky woman who is slowly regaining her memories and knows her mission, while Dimitri is a strong, smart and somewhat snarky man who knows his mission. When they meet ...let the explosions begin. There isn't quite as much romance as the other Soul Girls books, but there is more of the mysterious Heidi and overseer Connor...giving us more of this couple's past and some very strong hints of a future. We also got to see more of the design and running of the casino, and it's one you don't want to even think about cheating or stealing ... unless you know how to dance and want to do that for decades. I am looking forward to Ms. Long's next book ... I cannot wait to see what Heidi is really up to.

Book Summary

May the best hero win…

Soulgirls, Book 5

The Amazon librarian Jaimela serves in the Midnight Mystery Lounge as a dancer, distant and cool even to the best of her sisters. Until the exodus of Anthony and Roseâtre stirs her sleeping mind, sending her on the hunt for knowledge which first drove her to the Arcana Royale.

But that thirst only comes in daylight. Her nights are spent in trapped service to the whim of the stage. Until the warrior arrives.

Dimitri Abraxas, who serves at the pleasure of the Goddess Demeter, is on a quest to find Prometheus’s flame. He will leave no earthly stone unturned to decipher clues as to its location, for the world needs it more than ever.

One look at Jaimela and he knows the answer is within reach…but the sphinx harbors more than one secret. To awaken it, he must rouse the Amazon who would take the prize for her own. But unless they can put aside their differences and combine their quests, they will lose to the greatest foe of all…the Arcana Royale.

Warning: This book includes Greek gods, heroes, trials, myths come to life and a passion that cannot be denied…power, passion, and persistence, oh my!
