In a world where the whispers of the gods can be heard by those who truly listen, a young woman named Elara finds herself trapped in a cycle of unrequited love. Every morning and night, she offers heartfelt prayers to Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love, yearning for her destined soulmate. But when her pleas grow too frequent and too desperate, the enchanting goddess becomes exasperated with Elara's relentless requests. In a twist of fate, Aphrodite decides to grant Elara's wish-but not in the way she expects. She summons Ares, the formidable God of War, whose tumultuous past with Aphrodite is shrouded in mystery and passion. Ares is a warrior of unmatched strength and intensity, embodying everything Elara thought she wanted, yet his presence brings with it a whirlwind of chaos and conflict. As Elara grapples with the challenge of winning Ares's heart before time runs out, she discovers that love is not merely a fairytale; it's a battleground filled with trials, tribulations, and unexpected truths. With the clock ticking and the gods watching closely, Elara must navigate her feelings for the brooding god while uncovering the depth of her own strength and desires. Will she find a way to connect with Ares, or will their divine differences prove insurmountable? In this enchanting reimagining of Greek mythology, Elara learns that love is as fierce and unpredictable as the gods themselves, and sometimes, the heart's true calling comes from the most unexpected places.

First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes a baby in the baby carriage... This is the story of the Koutromanos family. They are an old family, their bloodline a mix of Greek, Italian, and French, and they follow the old traditions. When a young Koutromanos reaches their eighteenth birthday they are given a choice. Men can choose to devote their lives to the study of one thing or be married to a life mate chosen by the Matriarch. Women are given three days to go out into the world and find their life mate. Once they have chosen they must bring them back to the family property and the marriage ceremony will commence. Over the years the family has dwindled from the size of a village to only a few people through tragedy and time. The story begins the day after the eighteenth birthday of the youngest Koutromanos, Lucia. She has gone into the nearby town, hoping to find the love of her life.
