A lonely stranger, a powerful goddess, and an attraction that defies all odds. Leda has spent her life on the outskirts of society, constantly feeling like she is missing out on friendship, passion, and love. When she is thrust through a portal and into the presence of a beautiful goddess, she is struck with a wave of new feelings. Despite the chains she wears, Leda embraces a side of herself she has never previously explored as a captive in this strange world. Athena has maintained her tenuous hold on power through her ruthless scheming. But when her spies present her with one of the greatest threats to her power—a stranger from another world—the goddess locks the woman up. Except... the emerald-eyed beauty isn't what she expected. Leda's gentle, optimistic heart stirs something in Athena, something that would ruin her best-laid plans for control. And would that be such a bad thing?

Ophelia Wells Langley
Ophelia Wells Langley
Author · 9 books

Ophelia Wells Langley is a mother to two boys. A mild obsession with Celtic mythology, a strong taste for fantasy, and a penchant for escapism were the basis for her formative years as a writer. Her goal is simple: create character-driven stories that are inclusive and diverse. She creates lush fantasy worlds that satiate our need for escape from reality. When she's not writing, plotting, or scheming about her characters, you can find her embracing her theatrical side for her toddlers as a tyrannosaurus rex.
