Fate of the Gods Trilogy
Every god, from each of the world’s pantheons, mythologies, and religions — they’re all real in this enthralling fantasy romance that spans centuries. Begin with Book One:
book 1: Forged by Fate
After Adam fell, God made Eve to protect the world. — Adam has pursued Eve since the dawn of creation, intent on using her power to create a new world and make himself its God. Throughout history, Eve has thwarted him, determined to protect the world and all of creation. Unknown to her, the Norse god Thor has been sent by the Council of Gods to keep her from Adam’s influence, and more, to protect the interests of the gods themselves. But this time, Adam is after something more than just Eve’s power—he desires her too, body and soul, even if it means the destruction of the world. Eve cannot allow it, but as one generation melds into the next, she begins to wonder if Adam might be a man she could love.
book 2: Fate Forgotten
Since the gods returned Adam’s memory six hundred years ago, Thor has been a scourge on his lives. But when Adam learns that Thor has been haunting his steps out of love for Eve, he is determined to banish the thunder god once and for all. Adam is no fool: Eve still loves the man she knew as Thorgrim, and if she ever learned he still lived, that he still loved her, Adam would lose any chance of winning Eve to his side, never mind liberating the world. But after everything Thor has done to protect Eve, everything he’s sacrificed, the thunder god won’t go without a fight. Not as long as Eve might love him again.
Which means that Adam has to find a new ally. The enemy of his enemy, complete with burning sword and righteous resentment of the gods. But in order to attract the Archangel Michael’s attention, he needs Eve—an unmarried Eve, willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.
It shouldn’t be too difficult to find her in the future. Not now that he knows how to look.
book 3: Beyond Fate
When Adam left Eve, abandoning his wife and their newborn daughter Elah, he thought he was saving the world. But he hadn’t counted on the influence of Michael, twisting Elah’s love for her parents into paranoia, or the slow, leaching death of the world she rules. How could he have known the blame for the world turning barren would fall on Eve?
Eve only had two years to teach her daughter love, to cement Elah’s sense of morality and ensure the safety of all Creation. Even with the help of Raphael, Elah is becoming her father’s daughter, a master manipulator, and she’s determined to have her way, even if it means betraying her own mother’s trust.
With Loki and the Aesir gone, Thor thinks he’s protected Eve from the ravages of Ragnarok, but there are forces in play even the gods can’t see. When Thor arrives in Eve’s next life, offering her everything she ever wanted from Adam, and more — eternity without death or rebirth, and the freedom to live outside of her daughter’s reach — Eve is more than tempted. Being part of the world has grown physically painful. If she can escape to Asgard, maybe she can live again. Maybe she can love again.
But can the world survive with only Adam to protect it?
And three Fate of the Gods novellas:
book 1.5: Tempting Fate
Mia’s lived in her sister’s shadow long enough. Now that Abby is getting married to a Frenchman, Mia scents freedom. In fact, Jean DeLeon, the groom’s too-charming cousin, seems like the perfect place to start. But the House of Lions is full of secrets, and what started out as an exciting fling is quickly becoming more frustration than fun. Mia wants answers, or she wants out, and it isn’t like she doesn’t have other options. Ethan Hastings, for example. Tall, handsome, and gray eyes like nothing she’s ever seen before.
The fact that Jean seems to hate him is just a bonus.
Available in ebook and in the Facets of Fate collection.
book 2.5: Taming Fate
In 15th Century France, Eve would have burned as a witch if it hadn’t been for the too-timely arrival of the Marquis DeLeon to save her skin, but their hasty marriage is off to anything but a smooth start. As tensions in the town grow, Ryam DeLeon knows if he and Eve cannot find common ground, their first Christmas may be their last.
Available in ebook and in the Facets of Fate collection.
book 3.5: Finding Fate
Now that Marcus knows the truth about Eve, what is he going to make of it?
It’s been months since the woman he knew as Anna left him high and dry, taking the boy he thought of as a son with her. But when he sees her in the news with the President of the North Country, Marcus starts asking questions—and receives an invitation he doesn’t expect. Can he reconcile his memories of the girl-next-door with the immortal woman who still needs his help? And what can he possibly offer a group of gods and goddesses that they can’t already provide for themselves?
An all-new epilogue to Beyond Fate, Finding Fate is ONLY available in the newly released Facets of Fate collection, in ebook and paperback.
