Torquere twist.
OR…
Eros finds his
soul mate in the arms of a demigod friend in L.J. Hamlin’s In Love with Zeus’
Son. In Shiloh Sadler’s Clipped Wings, two men on a plantation find love under
the most unusual circumstances in 1842 Missouri. V.L. Locey’s Back to the
Garden, Pan hits up Woodstock with the sun god Apollo—sex, drugs, and rock and
roll take on a whole new meaning. In Brísingamen, Carol Tierney offers us the
story of a magical necklace, and the payment goddess Freyja delivered to four
dwarven sisters for it’s creation. Delphinos, by T. Strange, is a modern-age
retelling of Dionysus’ creation of dolphins. In Angelique Voison’s version of
the Japanese Moon Princess myth, Reiko is tasked with bringing the Emperor’s
future bride, the fabled Moon Princess to court, and complications arise when
Reiko falls head over heels for Kaguya. Charged with ensuring Sisyphus fails,
Hercules is conflicted by his feelings for the former ruler in Angelique Voison’s
How Hercules Got His Bruise. In Leah Ellwood’s Styx and Stone, Ferrying souls
across the Styx is a lonely business, but Charon doesn’t mind—newly arrived
Stone is more than willing to keep him company. No one believes in the Greek
gods anymore, and Apollo is in a rut, Ganymede—cupbearer to the gods— tries to
get Apollo to see what’s in front of him in Jacey Mills’ Another Night at the
End of the World. Salome Wilde's Eternal Grind offers a corporate take on
Christian Hell, populated with horned and hoofed demons inspired by medieval
monks' fertile imaginations, which follows a pair of lesbian demon baristas,
determined to find their own happily-ever-after. In the distant past, Ero was
the god of desire, but in present day, he looks for love with Psy—a peerlessly
gorgeous mortal man—and needs to keep a secret, in Alisha Monroe’s The Myth of
Ero and Psy. Bound by chains and defenseless, Thor is being held captive by
Garrick, a young man also forced to service until demands are met in Logan
Zachary’s Bound by Desire. Together, attraction ignites between Thor and
Garrick—can love grow if it is bound by desire? In Delilah Storm’s The Golden
Balls, true love’s kiss is powerful, and Jasper’s sexuality awakens—will Anur
be able to keep Jasper in this sleepy little kingdom? A spurned lover, mythical
horse, and a public official walk into a pub—murder, mayhem, and everlasting
love result in Alyx Shaw’s The Kelpie.
