Immortally Yours
発行者による作品情報
THE GIRL NEXT DOOR
It was bad enough that Dr. Petra Robichaud was drafted from her paranormal clinic in New Orleans. Now she’s in the middle of an immortal war, assigned to a MASH camp with a nosy guard sphinx, a vegetarian werewolf, and a minor god who needs to get out of camp and find some worshippers before he drives everybody crazy. At least they’re all too busy with their own dramas to discover that Petra has a very important secret. She can see the dead—it’s a forbidden gift, one that can get her killed. She won’t tell a soul.
AND AN IMMORTAL WARRIOR
Until the arrestingly intense Commander Galen of Delphi arrives on her operating table. When his spirit tries to slip out of his fatally wounded body, Dr. Petra has to slip it back in—unwittingly revealing her ability to see ghosts. Now that Galen knows her secret, he’s convinced she’s part of an ancient prophecy.
PROVE ALL IS FAIR IN LOVE AND WAR
Petra is no soldier. But Galen is as stubborn as he is gorgeous. If the oracles are right, Petra could lead Galen’s army to peace. And if he seduces her on the way to hell and back? Heaven knows—all’s fair in love and war…
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Petra Robichaud is a doctor on the front lines of an unusual kind of war. The gods of Greek, Norse, Egyptian, and other myths never disappeared. Instead, they've been locked in a deadly war for thousands of years. The two armies old gods and new gods regularly conscript human doctors to treat their wounded soldiers, and the war plods on without end. Galen of Delphi, a Greek demigod soldier who shows up on Petra's operating table, thinks Petra is the key to ending the war, as described in an old prophecy. The connection between the two is instantaneous. Petra is terrified of their mutual attraction and the prospect of fulfilling the prophecy, and she alternates between pushing Galen away and giving in to lust. The premise shows promise, but there is little character development to support it; Petra and Galen roll from one sexual encounter to another, and there's no attempt to explain what makes them tick.
