Hera is an assistant librarian in a college town. The community in her town of Lithia Bay, originally the Protected Bay of Lithia and Agrizia, was good and kind.
But Hera has shadows in her life- a dead aunt and a violent alcoholic uncle who loves nothing more than to torture her. She is wary of strangers. Her caution is warranted because when she meets two strangers who save her life and take her on a journey to the edge of the earth and beyond, all she knows and believes in is destroyed.
In danger of being a pawn in a game with consequences far worse than death, Hera must fight not only for her soul but her new home.

Ares
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.Completa
The Labyrinth Through Camelot | {COMPLETED}
"So if we don't get there soon, we lose, right? We lose Merlin and Hera will end the world?" "Camelot will end, Greece will end... Even your own world will be gone." 'You knights are our only hope.' Luna's signing really sold it. If they didn't stop Hera soon, the whole world would end. "Alright. What do we have to do?" ********** As far as the world knows, Camelot and ancient Greece never conflicted. Never associated, never spoke, never interacted. In fact, it would be safe to say that the two worlds didn't even exist at the same time. Until they do. An untold story that changes every story you've ever known. The Knights of Camelot rule as kings and queens, the first since the death of the legendary King Arthur. Sharing the duties among the six of them and under the guidance of the warlock, Merlin, these teenagers travel between Camelot and the modern world, the first time travelers, to protect the land they've adopted as their own. The Goddlets are used to living in a world of their own. As the children of the gods, they are used to getting away with whatever they want. Not used to many changes in their quiet world, they aren't prepared for what comes next. When the Knights and the Goddlets are called together on a quest to save Merlin from the clutches of Hera, the queen of the Greek gods, two very different worlds collide in a race against the clock to save the world. With limited time at their hands and everything they know and love at stake, the Knights and the Goddlets team up to put an end to Hera's destructive reign. The worlds of Camelot and ancient Greece collide in this action-packed book. Classic characters meet new faces in a complete retelling of universes people both know and love. {Entered in the Open Novella Contest under prompt 83: "This assignment requires us to act like adults.

The Curse of a Godess
"Kiss me." He whispers. "I-I don't know how...I've never done this before." I frantically whisper and tilt my head. My nose slightly brushes against his, and all of my instincts tell me to dive into him with the most passionate kiss I could create. I wanted to be closer, and feel every part of him against me. "Can I kiss you?" He asks through an intoxicating whisper. His lips teasingly hover over mine, and without thinking I finally press my lips against his. His lips matched mine perfectly like a puzzle, and I wrap my arms around his neck to pull him closer. His hands trail up my back, and the euphoric bursts of pleasure take my senses into over drive. He starts to part his lips, and his tongue slowly enters through my lips to play with mine. He tastes of sweet wine, and I feel my hands sliding up to grip his hair. I let out a slight moan into his lips, and my breath grows heavy. We part for a gasp of air before meeting back with more of my muffled moans. A faint thud-like sound catches my attention, and I start to pull away to see what made the sound. My lips retreat, and I take a faint breath before clearing my mind to think logically. As I pull away, his lips simply continue to kiss my chin and down my cheek. Another gasp slips from my lips, and this one echos through the hall. "I..I think...I...I heard something." I whisper as quietly as possible. He lightly pulls away to take a small breath before smiling. "I didn't hear anything. It's nothing." He pushes aside.... During the ancient times of Greece, lives the daughter of Demeter, Persephone. All her life has been sheltered from the mortal and immortal world. When her desire for a taste of freedom goes too far, she seals a deal with a man she will never escape... Enjoy this retelling of the Greek myth of Hades and Persephone! This is one of my favorite Greeks myths, and comment if you have any feedback! I'd love to hear from you 🖤Completa
tides of the moon
She was a princess running from a destiny she didn't choose. He was a god of the tides, feared by mortals, worshiped by none. Lyara fled her gilded cage under a blood moon, only to find herself at the mercy of Kael-the immortal tide-born who should have been her destruction. Bound by prophecy, caught in a moonlit temple of forgotten gods, and forced into an alliance that could ignite war, their fates are entwined in ways neither can escape. He was the prophecy she was meant to destroy. She was the heir who could end him. Yet in the stillness of the temple, under the silver glow of the moon, desire flares. Power clashes with passion, fear with longing, and the lines between enemy and lover blur. "You were supposed to fear me... yet I'm the one who kneels before you." As kingdoms collapse, gods awaken, and the tides rise, Lyara must decide: will she fulfill the prophecy... or rewrite it with the god who has already claimed her heart?

That's what happened to Anya. Saved by a man who is named after the God of Strength, Anya is thrust into a world of fur and claws, and is made to live with a bunch of people who seemed to take pleasure from naming their offspring after Greek gods. Yet it is not the brother who saved her who Anya falls for. One man, with a temper that could take on a fight with thunder and lightning, he's the man whose soul belongs to her, the man whose story is told in the prophets of his pack, the only one who can destroy the demons of her past. His name is Zeus.Completa
