Read OnlineWhen you steal from the gods, they find the most creative ways to punish you… Lukas
and his best friend Mal are Greek adventurers and warriors in the
tradition of Jason, Odysseus, and a host of other heroes, and Lukas
knows that despite his humble beginnings, he has the potential to take
his place among those men as a legend of mythic proportions. But no one
else believes in him, and so he sets out to prove them all wrong by
undertaking a most Herculean task: climbing Mount Olympus and stealing
Zeus’s golden crown. Zeus, however, is not amused, and Lukas’s
theft is quickly punished with his swift and painful death—or so Zeus
believes. But Aphrodite has other plans for such a bold and handsome
hero: she rescues Lukas from death’s door and uses her powers to hide
him away in the body of Lucia, a comely maiden who Zeus would never
suspect of being the thief who took his crown. Now, Lucia has
only a few days to convince Mal to help her find and return Zeus’s
crown, before the other gods realize what Aphrodite has done and return
Lucia to Hades… or worse, leave her trapped forever in the body of this
maiden. She’ll need to move fast and decisively to win the day, which
would be easy if she weren’t so distracted by all these strange new
feelings of lust and attraction she’s having for her adventuring
partner, Mal…
