A scorchingly hot modern retelling of Helen of Troy, Achilles, and Patroclus, from New York Times and USA Todaybestselling author.
“She was the face that launched a thousand ships, the fierce beauty at the heart of Olympus...and she was never ours to claim.”
In Olympus, you either have the power to rule...or you are ruled. Achilles Kallis may have been born with nothing, but as a child, he vowed to claw his way into the poisonous city's inner circle. Now that a coveted role has opened to anyone with the strength to claim it, he and his partner, Patroclus Fotos, plan to compete and double their odds of winning.
Neither expects infamous beauty Helen Kasios to be part of the prize…or for the complicated fire that burns the moment she looks their way.
Zeus may have decided Helen is his to give away, but she has her own plans. She enters the competition as a middle finger to the meddling Thirteen rulers, effectively vying for her own hand in marriage. Unfortunately, some would rather see her dead than lead the city.
The only people she can trust are the ones she can't keep her hands off: Achilles and Patroclus. But can she really believe they have her best interests at heart when every stolen kiss is a battlefield?
Repackaged with striking new artwork, this is the definitive way to enjoy this mythological romance tale that promises to take readers on a darkly seductive journey.

Books 1-7 are now available with gorgeously reimagined covers and a connected design on the full set.
A scorchingly hot modern retelling of Aphrodite and Hephaestus (and Pandora and Adonis), from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author.
“He was my enemy. My lover. My husband. And the one man I swore by all Olympus I would destroy.”
Aphrodite has never flinched at getting her perfectly manicured hands dirty, and she's not about to start now – even if that means marrying Olympus's enemy number one, the new Hephaestus. She has a wicked plan to keep her deadly new husband off-balance, seducing the one person he seems to care about most in this world: Pandora, a woman as beautiful as she is sweet.
Two can play the seduction game, however, and Hephaestus is all too happy to put his new wife in her place. Her ex, Adonis, seems like he'll do the trick. It doesn't hurt that he's gorgeous in the way of fallen angels, either.
The only problem with using seduction as a weapon? Hearts are all too quick to get involved. With Hephaestus and Aphrodite trading venomous strikes that feel a whole lot like foreplay, lines become blurred and emotions entangled. But a broken heart may be the least of their worries.
With unrest in Olympus reaching new heights, these bedroom games may have deadly consequences for themselves, their city, and everyone they've come to love.

A scorchingly hot modern retelling of Apollo and Cassandra, from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author.
“There's nowhere more dangerous than Olympus...and no one more captivating than its golden god: Apollo. Keeper of secrets, master of his shining realm...and the only man I am powerless to deny.”
As a disgraced member of a fallen house, Cassandra Gataki has seen firsthand what comes from trusting the venomous Thirteen. But when the maddeningly gorgeous and kind Apollo asks her to go undercover as his plus one at a week-long party hosted by a dangerous new power player...Cassandra reluctantly agrees to have his back.
On one condition: when it's all over, and Apollo has the ammunition he needs to protect Olympus, she and her sister will be allowed to leave. For good.
Apollo may be the city's official spymaster, but it's his ability to inspire others that keeps him at the top. Despite what the rest of Olympus says, there's no one he trusts more than Cassandra.
Yet even as their fake relationship takes a wicked turn for the scaldingly hot, a very real danger surfaces...threatening not only Cassandra and Apollo, but the very heart of Olympus itself.

But when her cousin goes missing at an exclusive house party, Daisy confronts the mysterious host...only to discover the wealthy recluse is Jay Gatsby, her childhood sweetheart. Shocked at the change in the boy she once knew so well, Daisy investigates the source of Gatsby's new riches and becomes entangled in a web of dizzying wealth and lies and obsession darker than she ever could have dreamed-culminating in a shocking act of violence that shatters the summer haze and threatens to drown them all.
