And Lyssa and Hercules are two of the lucky heroes offered the chance to compete. Twelve gods, 12 realms, 12 trials.

I was not prepared for Poseidon, or the soul-deep connection I have with him.

The man I escaped isn’t going to let me go without a fight, and the only thing my new Daddies require to keep me safe is the one thing I can’t give them—my trust.
