Ares by Author_K_

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.

The Love of Aphrodite - Book 1 by Teah09

Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love and Beauty is forced into an unwanted marriage the very evening she emerges from the sea. While Hephaestus is not terrible to her, she can't help but be enticed by his forbidden brother, Ares, and the other Gods who send her longing glances. Will she settle for Hephaestus or will she search for more for her own love story? *This story follows along some of Aphrodite's romances while married to Hephaestus. This story will not be a perfect timeline but will however, follow along a rough timeline according to my other book, Hades and Persephone.* *Also, Aphrodite has her faults. A fair amount of faults in fact! If you know her mythology she turns out to be a very vengeful, self-centred, and self-involved Goddess, but this story is all about her slowly progressing throughout her marriage to Hephaestus. A sequel will follow beyond once this marriage ends.* *This story is also not meant to be factually accurate, and is simply an interpretation of the story.

Hephaestus and Aphrodite by SpiderGwen89754

A steamy, romantic adaptation* of the Greek myths surrounding the marriage of Hephaestus and Aphrodite. *a very loose adaptation, does not follow myths accurately.

Psyche and Eros by Teah09

Psyche's beauty has gained her great popularity in the worst way possible, leaving her at the mercy of Aphrodite, a vengeful Goddess that doesn't wish to be rivaled. With no prospects for marriage, her parents listen to an oracle and leave her on a hillside, doomed to be greeted by the monster meant to be her husband. Instead, she is greeted not by what she expected, but an unseen man, Eros, the God of love. He is ready to offer her a magical marriage, but it comes with a few conditions to hide her at all costs...and himself. Written mostly in the point of view of Psyche. Here is her full journey of fighting for the love of her life she didn't even know she wanted. *Read "The Wrath of Aphrodite", sequel to "The Love of Aprhodite," for Aphrodite's point of view.

Party in the Dark, A. Chase & P. Jackson by birdiebell24

Aside from the classic mythology we all know, the Ancient Greeks had other stories that they continued to share, ones of tragic love. Lydia Evans had no idea what the fates had in store for her and just exactly how much it had to do with two certain half-bloods that quickly found their way into her heart. Can this so-called champion of free will outrun the tragedy that is written in her destiny? Or will her story be the next one to be passed down the line of hymns? Annabeth Chase x OC x Percy Jackson
