The Titan’s Heart

My grumpy New Zealand guide just turned out to be the God of War. And he's been lying to me since the moment I hired him.

Lukas Helms treated my PhD like fancy paperwork and my equipment like expensive junk. Every word from him was clipped, dismissive, professional. I told myself I didn't care. I told myself the way he looked at me—like I was something fragile he desperately wanted to protect—meant nothing.

Then my Resonance Imager detected a heartbeat beneath the volcano.

A portal tore the sky open. Gods walked through. And Lukas, who'd been hiding in these mountains for 150 years, was forced to reveal exactly what he is.

Now his sons are hunting us. Cultists are closing in. And the weapon I accidentally woke—the Titan's Heart—is calling every power-hungry monster in the mythological world to our doorstep.

Lukas swears he'll protect me. But if his enemies reach us first, protecting me might mean becoming the very thing he's spent centuries trying to bury. †
