"Touched By Myth", The Complete Sphinx Series, with Bonus content: Threads and Legends

Read the entire Greek saga, starting from the very beginning, when a demigod girl refused a god, and Apollo cast his curse. 

Origin of the Sphinx and Threads and Legends follow the generations of women who set the stage before Hope was born. In the vein of true Greek tragedy, these stories feature the woman who scorned a god, her daughter, who inspired a pharaoh in ancient Egypt, terrorized the city of Thebes, fell in love in historical London, and lost her heart in modern America when she sacrificed everything for her daughter, Hope’s mother.

Hope carries the same curse as her mother and grandmother. Born a monster, she does her best to fit in at school and make ‘normal’ friends, but when tragedy strikes, she doesn’t know if the demigod hunters tracked her down or someone stronger. With her world turned upside down, Hope decides she’s tired of running. Her fate is cursed, so she decides to change fate. Hers, specifically. In Cursed by the Gods, Demigods and Monsters, Myths of Immortality, and Fates and Furies, Hope risks her life to stop the curse that’s plagued the women of her family for generations. The meddling from Olympus stops now. With Her.

This box set also includes  companion novelettes, Son of War (featuring Xan, son of Ares) and Daughter of Darkness (featuring Dahlia, daughter of Eris).

Cursed by the Gods

Book 1

Hope has spent her entire life on the run, but no one is chasing her. In fact, no one even knows she exists. And she’ll have to keep it that way. It’s safer.

Even though mortals think the gods have disappeared, Olympus still rules. Demigods are elite hunters, who track and kill monsters. And shadow-demons from the Underworld prey on immortals, stealing their souls for Hades.

When tragedy destroys the only security she’s ever known, Hope’s life shatters. Is it the fulfillment of Apollo’s curse, or is she being hunted?

Forced to hide alone, Hope pretends to be mortal. She’ll do whatever it takes to keep her secret safe— and her heart protected.

But when Athan arrives, a hunter, Hope’s world, and heart, is flipped upside down. How long can a monster stay hidden in plain sight?

Join Hope on her unforgettable journey to discover what it means to *live* and begin her fight to break Apollo’s curse. 

The Sphinx series is filled with Greek gods, monsters, demigods, action and romance. Join Hope and challenge one’s fate, find true love, and redefine courage and heroes. 

Demigods and Monsters

Book 2

Courage is a choice.

Hope is done running away.

Apollo’s curse has ruled her entire life, limiting her choices and robbing her of what she wants most—love. Hope refuses to let fear hold her back any longer, despite the risks.

When the goddess Artemis instructs Hope to impersonate a demigod and infiltrate a conservatory, she doesn’t hesitate. She’s desperate for the information, and after suffering a deep betrayal,  Hope has nothing left to lose.

But once inside, Hope discovers the only way to get what she needs is to work with her sworn enemies, and Xan is not at all like she expected.

Myths of Immortality

Book 3

In the realm of the dead, there are no lies.

Hope is desperate to believe that the truth will set her free from the bindings of Apollo’s curse. But to get the truth, she must travel to the Underworld, a feat near impossible for the living. The Greek gods and goddesses there have their own agendas and, forced to forge alliances with the most unlikely allies, Hope will find that death is not the worst torment of the Underworld.

Athan Michael spent months chasing Hope, only to have her disappear once again. And when he discovers her destination, he knows the treacherous journey through the Underworld is one he cannot take alone. Forced to put aside his past with Xan and Dahlia, the three demigods embark on their own quest. But the past will not stay buried, and Athan must decide how much he’s willing to sacrifice to help Hope.

Fates and Furies

Book 4

The Olympian gods cause nothing but chaos…

Hope’s memories are as blank as the Book of the Fates. Still determined to break the curse, she and Xan take an offering to the Olympian temple to solicit the goddess Artemis for aid. But the petition has disastrous results, and now the gods are hunting her.

Athan sacrificed everything for Hope, and his mortality is becoming a liability. Forced to seek refuge in mists and darkness, Athan tangles with deities that weave the very threads of fate. But these goddesses also wield the immortal blades that lay ruin to destinies.

With everyone she loves damaged or destroyed by the blood of Olympus, Hope must face the power of the past to change the fate of her future.

Fates and Furies is the fourth and final book in The Sphinx series.
