FAN-FREAKN'-TASTIC! Outstanding and Brilliant Writing!
Awesome collection of 3 books in one.
Mythology lovers will eat this book up. The story woven for Aries the God of War is absolutely fantastic. The romance between Aries and Maggie (Alena) Macleod ½ Fey and ½ Goddess is brilliantly written with lots of emotional trials between them both. The sex scene between them is very HOT as well and will leave you in an awed and unbelieving WTF state.
I love how this book gives you the insight into the world between all the gods and goddesses with their deceit of back stabbing, jealousy rage and hatred, secrets kept to use at a later date to get their way for bargaining, love with lots of passion, and viciousness of power and abuse of power.
The connection between all the characters are electrifying and draw you in. The author does a fantastic job with the characters emotions of hate, love, lust, and deceit in a way that it felt so real world like.
The story's plot is intense and exciting showing how dedication and determination can over come some of the harshest situations. The erotic scenes are mind blowing and will take you beyond no return so get ready for a sensory overload when the erotic escapades blast above the imagination.
Overall, it was fantastic to read about Ares and Alena and to see their love tried and tested beyond extremes. It was neat to see Raven grow into maturity and most important, it was great to read the awesome drama between the Gods Apollo, Hades, Poseidon, Zeus, Hera, Athena, Aphrodite, and the Nymphs.
Excellent Read!

The Heart of War
I just love Mythology. This was a great intense, emotional, funny, action-packed book. We are talking about Gods so Mythology lovers the characters are consistent and boldly unapologetic. The writing was great and readers will appreciate. The sex scene were off the hook. I love just all a truly bad villain. There was so much intrigue, danger, and betrayal; the revenge is so sweet.
Child of War - A God is Born
I cannot get enough of this book. This is a great page-turner with blood vows, secrets, lies, adultery, murder, and treason. I enjoy so many WTF moments with Zeus, Apollo, Aphrodite, Ares, Eros, Poseidon, Hades, and Athena. Talk about characters who are literally selfish with jealousy. Their viewpoints of conniving deceptions will have readers screaming. ***I must point out the child will have reader thinking of every horror flick ever made.
Christmas Eve on Olympus
I enjoyed my very erotic Mythological Christmas Tale! This was an sweet sexy short story of Aries and Maggie with their young son Raven celebrating Christmas and Yule.
Readers will learn Olympians do not celebrate holidays, but this family is honoring many traditions.
