Forbidden Desire

Sins of the flesh are nothing compared to sins of the heart…

As the first true paratanist in over five-thousand seasons, Derrick has resisted his duty for as long as he can, but now he must undergo his Harvest, a ritual that will turn him from a boy into a man, and then from a man into a god. When things don't go as planned, Derrick makes a bad situation worse by claiming the woman sent to harvest him.

Acolyte Keira is expected to sacrifice herself upon the altar of Derrick, never imagining he would make her his consort or give her the slave who's erotic training she witnessed. After bestowing upon her the right to speak her mind, Derrick certainly never thought she would defy him, but Keira refuses to settle for less than she deserves.

As an ungati, Quinn's purpose is to give pleasure to others without taking any for himself. All during his training, an acolyte watched, haunting his dreams and making withholding his release almost impossible. When he finally becomes enslaved to the mysterious woman, he is caught between honor to his deity and a burning need to follow his heart.

Born to a living god and a woman who was once an untouchable slave, Beck struggles to make something of himself, finding solace in his friendship with Derrick. But now that they've undergone the Harvest ritual, Beck not only has to give up his friend, but he soon finds himself entangled with Keira, Quinn, and Empress Bithia. Beck has never been afraid to love, not even his best friend, but what will Derrick do when he discovers Beck is involved with those he's rejected?

This never before published, extremely erotic futuristic/sci-fi/paranormal M/M/M/F romance contains an acolyte determined to make the most of her second chance, a living god running from his responsibilities, an ungati trapped between duty and desire, and a best friend willing to sacrifice everything for love. 104,000 words or 416 pages.
