About this ebook

Prince of the Underworld and Lord of Fire, Ares was banished from his home by his father, Hades, two centuries ago and given a new duty and purpose—to keep our world and his from colliding in a calamity foreseen by the Moirai. Together with his six brothers, he fights to defend the gates to the Underworld from daemons bent on breaching them and gaining entrance to that forbidden land, striving to protect his home from their dark influence.

Caged by the manifestation of his power, held apart from those he loves by his own fire and starved of physical contact, Ares lives a cold existence driven by duty and the desire to return to his world. Until his world collides with a daemon who steals his power and a mortal female who shatters the ice around his heart and awakens the true fire within him—a soul-stirring passion both dangerous and seductive.

Megan has wandered far from her home, driven from everyone she loves by the devastating realisation that she is different to them all. Unsure who to trust in the world, she keeps to herself, until a fateful stormy night brings a temptingly handsome warrior crashing into her life and into her heart—a warrior who seems to hold powers more frightening and marvellous than her own.

When the New York gate comes under threat, and Ares is put to the test, will he choose his duty and regain the power he needs in order to save his world or will he choose the desires of his heart and sacrifice his fire so he can be with the woman becoming his whole world?

He was banished from his home by his father and given a new duty and purpose. Together with his six brothers, Ares, Prince of the Underworld and Lord of Fire keep the daemons from gaining entrance to the Underworld and keeping the worlds from colliding. Driven from everyone she loves by the devastating realization that she is different to them all, Megan has wandered far from her home. Not knowing who to trust, she keeps to herself. This paranormal romance is an energetic read that dares readers to keep up. The characters are strong and vivid with a sizzling chemistry that draws readers to them while the romance is sweet and passionate. The relationship, however, does have a fiery obstacle to be overcome which makes them getting together seem quite impossible no matter how magnetic their attraction which keeps this romance full of suspense and strong emotions. The plot is fast paced with non-stop excitement that keeps readers transfixed to the pages as surprising twists keeps the characters on their toes.

Creative and imaginative story elements comet together mixing Greek mythology and the apocalypse and gifts readers with a fascinating world of Gods and the ones they fall in love while they defend the world in an adventurous and enticing read.

This series is gonna be PHENOMENAL!!! This book has it all; fire, mythology, an alpha male, action, mystery, magic, emotion. It reinforced, yet again, why Felicity is one of my favorite authors, and I know that any book of hers will be nothing short of intriguing and intense. The stage is set for the rest of the series, and I'm beyond eager to see how it progresses with each brother, and to get more "pieces of the puzzle" to solve what is going to happen to the Underworld. This turns into sort of a "fated mates" story, and the love between Ares and Megan is perfect. I loved both of them, and I was so happy with the ending! I can't wait to get started on Valen's book next!!!!

I love a good Gods book and this one gives us a unique twist on one of the hottest gods. Ares of course was sent to earth to save the world but what happens is far from him saving anything he is the one being saved by whom? Well a mere human? or is she? Megan is unique to say the least she should be afraid of what she sees but she is not to a point. She is taken by Ares others brothers and brought to the place he lives and it is demanded that she heal him. But what happens is something so much more. I would say if you love the Gods and twists then this is one book you want to grab. I can't wait to see which brother is next.
