A liar believed, A prophet deceived, The gods' broken King, Hears his dead lover sing, And when his Skyfire falls, It shall burn down Troy's walls. _____________________________________ Cassandra predicted the destruction of Troy at the hands of Zeus before she could even speak. Now, as her family plots to sacrifice her to the King of the Gods in order to appease him, she can't get anyone to believe her: it won't work. Troy is still destined to fall. Apollo, the Light of Olympus, went dark the day Zeus slaughtered his sister. A new, different god was born: one determined to tear his father's world to pieces. An unstoppable force meets an unmovable object when the Oracle and the sun god meet. Prophecy, vengeance, and duty cease to mean anything. It is said that no one, mortal or divinity, can escape their fate. Lies, secrets, and betrayals contaminate their bond. And when the ashes of the Skyfire settle, what will be left for either of them?

You play games. She plays tricks. In the realm of games, where trickery abounds, a tale arises of a gifted assassin. Cassandra Roman Elizabeth Viper, blessed with a birthright from the divine, knew one truth above all else: "Don't trust the thirteen." With her family's legacy and newfound obligations weighing upon her, Cassandra's thirst for vengeance knows no bounds. Will she attain the retribution she seeks, or will she fall to the very forces she battles? Behold, "I Will Rise," the inaugural tome of D.A. Willows' "Gods Be Damned" series. In this modern retelling of the fabled Greek myth of Cassandra of Troy, action and romance entwine in a dark, fast-paced epic. As you delve into this tome, the edge of your seat will beckon, and the yearning for more will ignite. But do not despair, for a little edging never hurt anyone. Please note, dear seeker of knowledge, that this is a modern dark romance tale with a mafia twist, a reimagining of Cassandra of Troy.

Yet, some mysteries may remain unsolved until the second book's release, and though they do not diminish the greatness of this tome, they will leave you yearning for more. And a word of caution, the moody and vexing men within these pages may steal your heart. This story is intended for mature audiences, and please read the trigger warnings before indulging.
