Shadows of Olympus

Get ready for The Ruin of Eros, a breathtaking new retelling of the ancient Greek myth of Eros x Psyche: "the original Beauty and the Beast story, only darker". An epic romantic fantasy set in the lush world of Greek mythology, this is a must-listen for fans of ACOTAR, A Tribute of Fire, The Games Gods Play, or The Song of Achilles.

I never thought I’d be selected for Aphrodite’s great pageant.
I never thought it would get me into so much trouble.
I never thought I’d end up as the king’s next sacrifice.

Every year our town celebrates Eros, god of desire, in a special festival. But this year there’s to be a pageant like never before, and out of all the girls in Sikyon, I’ve been chosen to play the part of Aphrodite. They tell me it’s an honor… but I'm about to find out it's a curse.

When our tribute goes disastrously wrong, Aphrodite demands a sacrifice... and that sacrifice is me. The king's men bind me to a cliff and leave me there to die. But then a mysterious stranger intervenes, and offers me my life back, for a price. A high one. He won't tell me who he is, or show me his face, and when he reveals his jet-black wings, it's obvious he's no mortal man. But by then, the bargain is made, and the bond is sealed.

Now he thinks he owns me, but little does he realize I’m hatching plans of my own. Plans for my freedom. Plans to get my family back. And plans that just might upend all of Olympus. My mysterious captor won't know what hit him.

I was ready to turn the world of the gods upside down. I just didn't think mine would capsize with it...
