#1
Drown the Sea
2022
Adrienne had everything. The friends, the clothes, the college acceptance letter - not to mention a healthy social calendar. Then one stupid mistake has her packing her bags to spend the summer with her estranged mom in Santorini. Adrienne is determined to make the best out of her forced holiday until the date from hell results in her getting attacked, nearly drowning, then rescued by a bunch of seafaring cosplayers. Because what else could explain the Bronze Age-era boat full of shirtless, loincloth-wearing men? Now, if only there was a way to explain the complete lack of technology, the insurmountable language barrier, or the fact that everyone is staring at her like she’s from another planet… Drown the Sea is the first book in the Dying Gods series. It is a slow burn historical time-travel reverse harem romance suitable for readers 18+. Contains mm.
#2
Burn the Stars
2022
Time-travelling to the Bronze Age Mediterranean was never part of Adrienne’s plans. Adrienne has been doing her best to adapt to life among the Minoans. But the language barrier is nothing compared to the cultural divide – and the ensuing misunderstanding that results in Adrienne falling for a man already promised to another. When Adrienne discovers that the famed Oracle on Crete might know how she can return home, she agrees to leave her newfound friends behind and embark on a dangerous journey. Will the Oracle give her the answers she seeks … or will she find her destiny is already written in the stars? Burn the Stars is the second book in the Dying Gods series. It is a slow burn historical time-travel reverse harem romance suitable for readers 18+. Contains mm.
#3
Wake the Gods
2023
Even after visiting the Oracle, Adrienne still can’t quite believe the prophesy. But whether she believes it or not, there is no denying the strange power building within her, or the bond forming between her and her men. Now, after making her daring escape from Knossos, Adrienne’s enemies have only grown more dangerous, and everything she has come to love is at risk. Faced with a power-hungry god and a greedy queen, Adrienne has a decision to make. A decision that will change the very course of history. Will Adrienne learn how to wake the power within before it’s too late?
#4
Minas
2025
Britomartis
I have always been the perfect dedicating my life to my people, to my goddess, and to my mother, the Minas of Thera. Now, I’ve betrayed a goddess, commandeered a stolen fleet, and am taking my people into battle against my mother’s orders. For Sira. …
Sira
Some women are born to rule. Others carve out their thrones from the bones of their sisters, their mothers, their friends. I was never destined for such a throne. I was never meant to be Minas.
Minas is a spin-off to the Dying Gods series focusing on Britomartis and Sira. This story picks up at the end of Wake the Gods. While this can be read as a stand-alone book, it will contain spoilers for the first three books in the series, will reference events that occurred during previous books in the series, and contain many of the same characters.
