Most of all though, I love interesting characters. Whether it’s a big billionaire, a short king, or an arrogant lion-shifter president, I aim to have unique male leads because, as an avid romance reader myself, I’d like to see more variety in romance.

Aphrodite: Captivating Greek Myths and Facts Involving the Olympian Goddess of Love by Matt Clayton
About Aphrodite: Captivating Greek Myths and Facts Involving the Olympian Goddess of Love by Matt Clayton
Did you know that Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, was also associated with the sea?
Born from a strange mixture of divine blood, severed genitals, and seafoam, Aphrodite washed up on the shores of Cyprus long before the emergence of her fellow Olympians. A figure who is as petty as she is relatable, she is not only a key deity of the Greek pantheon, but she is also a central figure in many of the myths we know and love today.
With influences possibly rooted in the goddesses Ishtar and Astarte, there are scholars who believe that the concept of Aphrodite was imported to Greece from the Middle East or West Asia. Contact between cultures might have led to her incorporation into the main Greek pantheon, with her foreign origins explaining some of the regional differences regarding not just her birth but also her personality. While her connections to beauty and love are her most well-known attributes, places like Sparta and Cyprus also viewed her as a war goddess.
Depictions of Aphrodite’s powers can reveal quite a lot about how the Ancient Greeks viewed love. By looking at the life-threatening consequences faced by the mortals who cross Aphrodite’s path, one can see how, in Ancient Greece, a sour end to a relationship could destroy a person’s life through the tainting of their reputation and their honor.
This book focuses on myths that are either centered around Aphrodite or feature her as an important character. Because of her volatile nature and quick temper, Aphrodite could just as often be a force for good as she could be a force for evil. While it would be impossible to gather all the different stories related to Aphrodite in their entirety in one collection, this book provides the interested reader with a nice, if somewhat modest, the assortment of narratives that display different facets of this fascinatingly complex goddess.
Some of the myths you’ll discover by reading this book are:
• Aphrodite’s birth and unexpected marriage
• The life and death of Adonis
• How Psyche and Eros’ love defied divine wrath
• Pygmalion’s arrogance and his unusual mistress
• The beginnings of the greatest war ever fought
• And more!

The Wren and the Swordfish Pilot
About The Wren and the Swordfish Pilot
Heart-warming, courageous, and ultimately uplifting – for all lovers of World War Two historical fiction.
When Cathy’s twin brother is called to serve in the Royal Navy, she leaps at the chance to join the Wrens, which by 1942, has grown into a strong force of over sixty thousand women. But she longs to be at sea and prove herself – to fight alongside her brother.
Already working her way up through the ranks is Wren Officer Anne Foxton, who takes command of a ‘stone frigate’ in the traditional man’s world of the British Navy. It’s a responsible job – and for her – the opportunity of a lifetime. Then into Anne’s well-ordered world comes a young Swordfish pilot who has earned himself quite a reputation. Which one of her girls will catch his eye – and what lengths will he go to, to win her?
And then there’s Linda, a motorcycle dispatch rider, enjoying freedom for the first time in her life and learning all manner of secrets as she takes important messages from one top location to another. She sees a lot more than the war office might be comfortable with, including plans for Operation Pedestal – the most ambitious convoy ever sent through a barrage of enemy fire to the island of Malta.
Against all odds, the women are drawn to help each other. Together, they find the courage to work and play in a war-torn world. All three are placed in grave danger and will only survive with determination, skill and luck. Will they be able to do it?
