The goddess Nemesis has many names but her current one,
Ilsa, is the one she prefers in this current time. Many
years ago, the goddess Rhea asked Ilsa to hide and raise
Rhea's son, Zeus, with a promise that if Ilsa completed the
task, she would be rewarded. Ilsa did exactly what she was
told, but when Zeus left to defeat his father, he returned
with scorn and used his own power to trap Ilsa in a cave
with no way out. Then Hades came to Ilsa with a bargain she
was unable to refuse; in return for her freedom, she is to
collect souls and return them to Hades for retribution.
Unfortunately, Ilsa's need for vengeance leads her to make
a bargain with a dark wizard where she blindly does his
bidding to collect a vial of blood from one of Themis'
Zodiac Warriors.
For 300 years, ever since dark magic was used on him, Kane
Montague, Themis' Scorpion Warrior, has been dealing with
the poison within him. Between the poison and the one woman
who got away, the pain is enough to bring Kane to his
knees. He also works for a deep-cover group in MI6, which
is why he joined the elusive Ilsa on a fact-finding
mission. After one night of wild passion with her, Kane
woke up drugged and alone. His search for Ilsa has come up
empty, until one of his brothers spots her outside a club
and they create a plan to catch and interrogate her. But
once he has Ilsa in his arms, the chemistry between them
explodes. But the secrets Ilsa keeps could destroy them
both.
This second book in the Zodiac Warrior series is just as
powerful and sexy as the first with a twist of Greek
Mythology that is exciting and fun. A fabulous read!
Millennia ago,

Scorpion that makes his powerful form. As an assassin for
MI-6, he's an ace gun-for-hire. After being double-crossed
on a mission, Kane knows all too well who's to blame: a
sexy, secretive agent named Ilsa who may be even deadlier
than he is...
