Book Review: Dark Sins and Desert Sands by Stephanie Draven

Dark Sins and Desert Sands by Stephanie Draven is romance novel that combines suspense and the paranormal in a contemporary setting. It is part of Draven's Mythica series, but the only one that I have read. I enjoyed that the characters were flawed individuals and I appreciated the new twist on mythology and the gods. It was a quick read, with action and romance that moved at a fast pace.

In Dark Sins and Desert Sands, Ray Stavrakis is an American soldier that has endured the stresses of war and then torture. The result of the trials he has survived is that Ray is on the run, but now gifted with mind control powers. However, he also has to contend with the tolls of using those powers and violent rages. He is now a minotaur, and he is on the hunt for the woman that took part in his interrogation, the only person he believes can clear his name. The woman he is searching for, Layla Bahset, has problems of her own to contend with.
