Only Katee Robert could write a delightfully smutty, queer (and specifically MM) romance with a host of diverse characters that also has political intrigue and poignant advice on grieving someone that wasn't who you wanted them to be. In Sweet Obsession, Poseidon has been charged with caring for Icarus after his father has died and his sister, Ariadne, has escaped with the Minotaur. While Icarus initially lives up to his reputation as a seducer who uses sex and his wits to get control over others, the situation shifts as he gets to know Poseidon. We get a bit of grumpy/sunshine and maybe, more accurately, a little teddy bear/manipulator. 

While I the only other Dark Olympus book I read was Neon Gods (the first), I did not feel lost in the general universe thanks to both the introductory MuseWatch chapter and overview of events from both Icarus and Poseidon. Sweet Obsession is the eighth (!) book in the Dark Olympus series. Now, of course I realize I've been remiss not to read the others and will going back to get fully caught up. My only gripe is how self-pitying both Icarus and Poseidon get in their heads, which grated on me a bit. On the whole though, I highly recommend.
