A tale told between two points of view, spaced between vast oceans of time. Within the depths of her psyche, Ava James grapples with a label that has haunted her since childhood: Crazy. Psychotic. Deluded. She's always suffered with hallucinations featuring a figure straight out of Norse Mythology. But not everything is as it seems. Something is telling her that these hallucinations and dreams are an echo of forgotten memories of her time as an Asgardian herself. As the line between her dreams and reality blurs, Ava discovers a truth that transcends time and sanity: she is not merely Ava James; she is the reincarnation of Sigyn, goddess of loyalty and endurance. But Ava's revelation is only the beginning. Beneath the facade of her mortal existence lies a world teetering on the brink of chaos. For Loki, the deceptive King of Jotunheim and the God of Mischief, seeks to unravel the threads of fate and seize dominion over the mortal realm. And Ava, unwittingly bound to him by threads of destiny, stands at the precipice of a choice that will shape the fate of humanity. As Ava's beautiful nightmare unfolds, she must confront the darkness within and embrace the echoes of her immortal legacy. For in the clash between gods and mortals, the lines between ally and enemy blur, and the fate of existence hangs in the balance. *Prepare to embark on a journey where past and present collide-a tale of love, betrayal, and magic.

How do you punish a three-thousand-year-old god? By taking away everything that made him an immortal. By chance, the fates of destiny reveal that the eternally single immortal Apollo is destined to meet a human meant to be his blushing bride. Upon the discovery of whom the maiden is eighteen years after her birth, Apollo is livid to discover his betrothed is actually a foul-tempered brat with a very large chip on her shoulder. The sun god finds he absolutely loathes his intended bride nearly as much as she despises him. After horribly angering his father Zeus by wanting to disregard his very own prophecy, the king of the gods casts Apollo down to earth, cursing him to never step foot onto Olympus again for encountering his wrath. The catch...? The sun god has only three months to woo his mortal betrothed into loving him, otherwise, live out the rest of his days as a lowly human. To make matters worse, there are quite a number of enemies the former immortal has made throughout his long life that do not wish for him to regain his immortality...

Aly's life is a series of letdowns. At twenty-two, she's drowning in debt, struggling to make ends meet, and feeling the weight of isolation. Her only escape lies in the pages of books and the stories she writes, offering fleeting solace from the monotony of reality. One ordinary day, while binge-reading on Wattpad to momentarily escape her troubles, Aly receives an unusual reading request from a mysterious profile. Intrigued, she dives into the story and finds herself reciting strange, almost enchanting words about witchcraft. What seems like an irrational dream of magic and wonder follows-but when Aly wakes up the next morning, she realizes something impossible has happened. The Wattpad story didn't just exist in her imagination-it *brought its characters into the real world.* Now, Aly's life spirals into chaos as she struggles to balance her everyday routine with the presence of werewolves, quirky British band members, and even characters from her own unfinished stories. However, it's not all fun and games. Aly quickly discovers a hard truth: when dealing with fictional characters, not all heroes wear shining armor-and sometimes, the villains are of her own making. Can Aly survive the collision of fantasy and reality, or will her imagination prove to be her undoing? Special thanks to Aphrodite270 for the amazing cover!
