About this listen

Even War Bows to Love

Exiled. Dishonored. Dangerous.

Cast from Olympus for a crime no god will name, Ares, God of War, rules a barren island of hollow pleasures—until a dying fey washes ashore.

Alena MacLeod is bound by ancient magic and hunted by forces that never forget. Zeus wants her in chains.

Desperate, she offers Ares the only bargain powerful enough to tempt a god: One night.

His protection.

But Ares sees more than desire—he sees opportunity. If Zeus wants her, she has value. Perhaps even the power to restore what he has lost.What begins as strategy ignites into something neither expected—an attraction that feels less like lust… and more like fate.

And fate is something even gods cannot outrun.

As Olympus closes in and war rises once more, Ares must choose: Revenge—or the woman who has awakened his long-dead heart.

Love is rare among the gods. And it always demands sacrifice.

A sweeping dark fantasy romance of myth, prophecy, betrayal, and a passion powerful enough to shake Olympus itself. The explosive first book in the For the Love of War series.
