Aristos Petrakos is a Sparton Warrior who follows King
Leonidas and 300 other warriors into battle against the
Persians at Hots Gate. He then is one of a chosen few to
become a God of Midnight, which includes immortality and a
deal with the God of War, Ares. Over a century ago, Ari met
and fell in love with Juliane Tiades, a Savannah socialite.
Ari was positive Juliana was his heart and soul. Ari
watched Juliana's beautiful face go from pleasure to horror
at seeing who he really was, devastating him. Juliana took
her own life after Ari revealed his true nature leaving him
alone and heartbroken for 100 years. Now Juliana resurfaces
as a spirit claiming to be Ari's lost love and trying to
contact him through his friends. This makes Ari angry,
filling his mind with doubts, as well as memories of
love.
In Juliana Tiades time, over 100 years ago, life was simple
and carefree. She was in love with a beautiful man, knowing
marriage was their next step. Then the unthinkable happened
when he showed a side of himself she had never known
existed. Then Juliana was taken into a wild hurricane to
die without letting her inform Aristos Petrakos how she
really felt about him. After 100 years of wandering the
streets of Savannah as a spirit, Juliana finally finds
someone who can convince Ari to come back to her. Their
reunion is not what Juliana expects, but when Mason Angel
believes Juliana is a demon out to destroy the Gods, she
becomes marked for death.
This story isn't as exciting or action-packed throughout as
previous stories have been in this series, but it does have
a few side stories that are worth the read. This may not be
my favorite, but I absolutely love the series itself.
Having recently assumed the power over life and death for
the immortal Spartan brotherhood. Aristos Petrakos still
hasn't mastered his unpredictable abilities. Now a medium
brings him a message from the other side-a romantic message
Ari doesn't want to hear.
More than a century ago, the love of Ari's immortal life,
Juliana Tiades, drowned in the Savannah River after she
learned about Ari's shape-shifting abilities. Desperate to
reveal the truth about her death, Juliana makes a bargain
with a Djinn demon who offers to give her phiscal form.
But as Juliana and Ari are reunited in passion, the debt
must be paid-in souls and spirits.
