The mighty Warriors of Poseidon -- magnificent fighters all, who proudly bear the mark of the Trident. Their sacred duty is to protect mankind from destruction. They stand shoulder to shoulder against the rising tide of shifters and vampires who would overrun the earth and destroy humanity. They take their duty seriously and perform their appointed tasks with all due reverence and...er...they do take their duty seriously, but...well, boys just want to have fun. Lord Vengeance, Ven to his friends and brethren, second in line to the throne of Atlantis, is currently cooling his heels in a dive of a bar. Not happy, not happy at all. Waiting for a tardy Wizard and ready to rip someone a new one. Well, here comes someone. Not the wizardy someone Ven is expecting, but a witchy someone instead. A pretty someone who makes Ven stand up and take notice. And start stuttering inanely, just like any other guy faced with a beautiful woman. Erin Connors, the woman and witch in question, has a similar reaction to Ven, but being a woman, she merely raises a brow and attempts to keep her cool. It takes everything Erin has in her not to fall drooling at the Warrior's feet. She is after all a witch, a powerful gem- singing witch at that. And so instead of drooling, she looks down her nose and sneers. At least, she's starting out with the upper hand -- in theory anyway. We can forgive Erin her mistake, since this is the first time she's met a Warrior of Poseidon, after all. Erin represents the Circle of Light. She and her coven are being courted by Con to form an alliance with Atlantis against the vamps and shifters. Ven wants to forge an alliance with Erin, all right. Right here and now. Erin fascinates him like no other woman ever has and for the first time he feels a little out of his depth with a woman. Although he doesn't know it, Erin doesn't have any more control of the situation than he does. Her Wilding Magic is coming close to overwhelming her. And the gems are singing. Not only to her, but Ven can hear them too, and that has never happened before. Ven and Erin are thrown together as Caligula, a powerful vampire, seeks to claim Erin and her power for his own. Caligula has big plans for the human world and it's up to the Warriors of Poseidon to stop him in his tracks. Wow, another page turner from Alyssa Day! This is the third story about the Warriors of Poseidon, and like its predecessors, it maintains a furious pace without taking a breath or breaking a sweat. The warriors never lose their sense of humor even when dealing with the worst kind of evil. Although their women do scare the pants right off of them, at times. Ven, the toughest of them all, finally meets his match in Erin, a strong woman on a mission of vengeance and salvation. Great entertainment from Ms. Day and Berkley -- a winning team.
