The Ilia Stone by RJ Loom
Nia Williams could never have imagined the way her ordinary life would be turned upside down after the death of her grandfather. A chance find unwittingly has her discovering the truth of an ancient Greek myth, plunging her into a world where the legends she only read about in her history books become her reality.
Plagued with a strange link to others’ past, she follows the path of an ancient artifact around the world and throughout time as it reveals its story to guide her to contain powers once thought lost to the rise of modern religion.
Two men affected by the artifact vie for her allegiance; Gabriel, a man haunted by his own past, and smooth talking Viktor who wants Nia to embrace a life she never imagined.
A love sacrificed… An impossible decision…
As lines blur between right and wrong, how much will Nia be willing to sacrifice?

My Review
5 Stars
Nia Williams is a normal college student struggling with her studies and her life. But then her grandfather dies and she discovers a strange stone in his attic. But this stone has the power of the Greek Gods in it. Nia learns that the stone has made her immortal and given her powers. Now she has two men, Gabriel and Viktor pursuing her.
Gabriel is trying to bring out her good side and seems to care about her. Yet he is hiding a secret that may hurt Nia more. Viktor is after her darkness and challenges her to embrace the power for bad. You know he is bad but at the same time you can’t figure out why you want to read more about him.
This is a great story with lots of action, power, and betrayal. I felt for Nia, she was just trying to find her place in the world and then discovers she has all these powers. Then there is Gabriel and Viktor. Once again another love triangle but this time I like how it was handled. The temptation of good and evil is so much better than instalove.
If you like paranormal romances I recommend checking this book out. I loved all the mythology twisted up in this story and I hope that there will be more to come.
I received a complimentary copy of this book. I voluntarily chose to read and post an honest review.
I would like to thank Ink-n-Flow Management Group for the opportunity to read and share this book.
