Can two broken souls be repaired with a lot of love and a little power from the gods?
Leto, the goddess of motherhood and womanly demure, wants to be anything but bashful. Working in Las Vegas in the music business has proven she can’t be coy if she has desires, but the man she loves isn’t available. What’s a goddess to do?
Help break a curse, that’s what.
Tommy has loved Leto since the day they met, but he never thought she’d want to be with him. He’s also got a girlfriend. When his girlfriend leaves him for his brother and curses him, it’s up to Leto and Tommy to admit their deepest desires—they want to be together.
There’s just the matter of breaking that pesky curse…

“Ha,” Missy said. “I curse you to stone.” She laughed and walked away with Duncan. “Jerk.”
She’d really done it—she’d left him for his brother. His stomach roiled. How could she be so cruel? She knew he and Duncan didn’t get along. How had his life fallen apart so fast?
He moved to push off the railing, but his limbs refused to cooperate. What? He tried to look at his hand, but he couldn’t lift his arm. “Leto.” He needed help. Was he having a stroke? “Leto.”
Could she hear him? Crap. Where was everyone? In the recording studio, in the sound-proof room…
Leto rushed out to the patio. “Tommy?” She spotted him and her eyes widened. “Oh, no.”
“What…?” His voice faded. No, no, no. Where had his voice gone and why in the hell couldn’t he move?
Leto patted her thigh and nodded. “This is bad. This is very bad.”
No kidding. Why wasn’t she calling someone? How about the ambulance? The guards? He tried to open his mouth, but he seemed frozen.
Leto trembled. “I’ll be right back.”
Call the medics, he wanted to scream. He glanced at his hand. His skin had turned ashen … like stone. Oh, crap. He must be dying. Why couldn’t he move? Missy hadn’t touched him, so she couldn’t have poisoned him. What was going on?
Leto returned a moment later with Hera.
“He’s been cursed. I know curses and this is a problem, but I don’t know how to fix it,” Leto said. “What do we do?”
Hera stroked his arm. He felt her, but also seemed like he was looking at himself without being in his body.
Hera sighed. “This appears to be a curse and he’s screwed.”

ReplyDelete- the paranormal features to be shown not told, no <> "Deus ex machina",
- well-thought and complex plots with challenges, impossible love / alliances (with HEA), passion but not explicit scene (yes, the sexuality level is high in PNR, but still it should be relevant for the story; I hate the "stories" in which there is just a bit of action/plot just to put the characters in bed... if they get there), alpha males/bad boys, powerful females, adventure, great action/battle scenes, high stakes, and conflicts between personal and social interests
- nice language and good dialogues, sustained pace
- and much more... :)))))
