Of Love and Forge

More about the book

Life was thriving in the Neosphere District, where I had established myself as a top supernatural bounty hunter, renowned for slaying harpies. The best part? I had successfully avoided the other Olympian gods, especially after being banished for being “imperfect.” My time-traveling abilities, thanks to a portal device I created, allowed me to navigate this new world with ease. However, everything changed when a bounty appeared on Aphrodite, the love goddess and my childhood friend. Despite our playful banter hinting at something deeper, I had kept my distance for my own sanity. Yet, I foolishly accepted the bounty. Meanwhile, Aphrodite, having reconciled with her son Eros, was trying to turn her life around. Under the alias Vena Milo, she ran a legitimate companion service in California with her friends, the Graces. Just as she found her footing, Hephaistos, the volcano god and a lifelong friend, entered the scene with a pair of magical handcuffs. His presence stirred conflicting emotions within her, and when his plans unraveled, they became the hunted. This cyberpunk fantasy intertwines Hephaestus and Aphrodite’s journey, defying myth while exploring the complexities of true love.
