Told from dual first person perspectives (Hercules and Daisy) HERO WORSHIP follows in the wake of several attacks directed at our story line heroine. Daisy is battling a horrific disorder that is slowly robbing her of her life and her will to live, a disease that worsens with bright lights, stress, and has now been affected by her nightmares and dreams. Desperate to protect his daughter, Hades, with the help of his brothers Zeus and Poseidon, calls in help from former Special Forces soldier Hercules, the man with whom Daisy had fallen in love but as Daisy’s disorder worsens, Hercules calls in reinforcements, returning Daisy to her family, in search for help or a possible cure. What ensues is the building but highly sexual relationship between Hercules and Daisy, as Daisy and Hercules’ nightmares merge, invoking the demons from both of their pasts.

The relationship between Daisy and Hercules started several years earlier when Hercules saved Daisy from a sexual assault. Daisy has never forgotten about the boy who saved her life but as Daisy’s disorder worsens, she is reluctant to call in help from the people she loves. Hercules has loved Daisy for as long as he can remember but struggles in the wake of his own nightmares that refuse to let go. As Daisy and Hercules’ relationship quickly turns into something more, it is the something more that Daisy needs to feel alive. The $ex scenes are erotic and intense.

There is a large ensemble cast of mythological Greek gods and goddess including Zeus, Hades (and Persephone), Poseidon and Demeter, and their significant others, extended family, as well as Ares, Artemis and Apollo. Artemis and Apollo’s story is next in TWIN FLAME.

The premise is entertaining, intriguing and enchanting;the romance is provocative; the characters are familiar yet powerful and dynamic.
