Capturing Nemesis

Brides of Gods and Heroes #1 / 2
by Katherine West
Capturing Nemesis (Brides of Gods and Heroes #1) by Katherine West
Unrated

An abduction on her wedding day led to mysteries buried in Atlantis… and a forbidden love she has kept secret for three thousand years…

Megara
I was supposed to walk down the aisle into a life that was the best prison my family and the Institute could devise for me. Instead, I was abducted by two space pirates.

One is a cyborg, the remains of a man I loved in secret three thousand years ago when I was a goddess and he was a Pegasus-trainer. The other is his clone. I surrender to them in ways I never even imagined before, only to find that everything we shared means nothing to either of them.

But there is more at stake than my own life. I was always a warrior. And it’s time to go into battle.

Varith and Areon
We planned to use her to unlock the secrets inside the crystal skull buried in Atlantis. This was never about romance. But seeing her again unlocked parts of us that we thought were buried when we lost the remnants of our humanity. Feelings and desires awoke in us that we hadn’t known for millennia.

And then we put her at risk. Pursued through the ruins of Atlantis by an army of zombies, she was infected by the Shadows, parasitic beings that eat away at the soul.

Since we’re not fully human, the Shadows can’t affect us, but we can’t affect them, either. That means we can’t save her. There is only one way she can survive…

Welcome to the Brides of Gods and Heroes series, which takes place in the House of the Gods universe. Sizzling passion, ancient mysteries and pulse-pounding adventure combine in this thrilling series of sci-fi/mythology romances!

Katherine West

Katherine West is shy. Like, really shy. Unless she gets started talking about one of her obsessions, like romance, history, music, art or lacemaking. Then it takes an act of God to shut her up.

She lives in Sydney, in a house where she can see the sunset and is a crazy cat lady with a starter pack of one.

She’s been writing books since she was a little girl. Her Year 6 teacher teased her publicly because she wrote long stories. Now who’s laughing, Mrs Reynolds?

Katherine is very new at all of this, so let her know if you like her books! She writes steamy science fiction romance (well, “science” fiction that is awfully close to fantasy, but with better healthcare and hygiene) about gods and heroes, and women who are more powerful than they know.

You can join her Lovers of Gods and Heroes newsletter to receive snippets from upcoming books, extended epilogues and deleted scenes. The TBR Club is for newsletter subscribers only, so check it out! You can also follow her on Facebook to see her cat and her half-assed attempts at humour.
