The God of War has never been a popular presence on Olympus. But his glowering looks and stern expressions have a much deeper cause.Aloof and as changeable as the winds of conflict, Ares has always carried tragedy with him wherever he goes. To bring suffering is his destiny, his mother saw to that, but even the Lord of Swords must take time to breathe the sweet air. Even Ares must rest.The God of War has fought against the prophecy for so long that it seemed impossible to bring him to heel. But there is more at work here - a secret that keeps him separate from the plight of his father, his uncles, and even his brothers.Nikos is a man without a future, a college student without direction or ambition to do anything to take him away from his lonely island home. He's listened to his fathers' stories about the Olympian gods and their selfish ways since he was a child, and the mythology is as real to him as if it had been acted out in front of his face.When the God of War is confronted with the truth about his destiny, what lengths must a mortal go to convince a God that sometimes Fate cannot be ignored? And what must a God do to ensure that his legacy is protected?Marble Heart is book 5 in the New Olympians series. 39,000 words, with a HEA featuring a willing omega and a stubborn alpha-god to claim him.~ NEW OLYMPIANS ~Book 1 ~ Lightning Strikes (ZEUS)Book 2 ~ Rip Tide (POSEIDON)Book 3 ~ By the Book (HADES)Book 4 ~ Swift Wings (HERMES)Book 5 ~ Marble Heart (ARES)FREEBIE ~ Immortal's Wish (Holiday novella)Book 6 ~ Eternal Fire (HEPHAESTUS)Book 7 ~ Phoebus (APOLLO)Book 8 ~ Spark of Romance (EROS)Book 9 ~ Spark of Chaos (Dionysus)Book 10 ~ Spark of Remembrance (BOREAS)

The winds of change are blowing, and even Hermes must choose a side...The Messenger of the Gods has been a neutral party in the war between the immortal Olympian gods for centuries. Zeus and his brothers on one side; Hera and her sisters on the other... there will be no peace between them while jealousy festers and anger and resentment keep their hold on the hearts of the gods. Hermes has seen it all, and listened, while both parties have ranted and raved about their mistreatment at the hands of the other. But when will it be his turn?The nursery at Olympus has been filling with noise and laughter, but while Hermes' uncles seek their own perfect match, he wallows in denial that the prophecy was even meant for him. How can he truly stay neutral in this war when his heart is pledged to the mortal who would bear his children? It's not fate he's avoiding, it's the knowledge that everything he is will be compromised. It would only take one moment of weakness, and every alliance that he has worked so hard to build will be shattered.Noah isn't a one-night-stand kind of guy, but when it comes to Lukas, he's made a month's worth of exceptions.
