Lovesick
Gods

Genre:
Superhero
GLBT Romance
Heroes
aren’t meant to act like their villains—or fall in love with
them.
The
elements touch everyone on Earth—Fire, Water, even Light—but
every so often someone becomes more attuned to their elemental
leaning and develops true power. When an evil Elemental known as
Thanatos arrived in Olympus City, it saw the rise of its first
hero—Zeus. But the death toll caused by defeating Thanatos changed
Zeus, who by day is young detective Danny Grant.
It’s
been six months since Thanatos terrorized the city at the start of
Lovesick Gods. Danny should be used to his duty behind the mask, but
the recent past haunts him. His girlfriend left him, he snaps at the
barest provocation, his life feels empty—he needs an outlet, any
outlet to pull him out of his depression.
Enter
notorious thief Malcolm Cho, the Ice Elemental Prometheus. There was
a time when Danny welcomed a fight with Cho, filled with colorful
banter and casual flirtations that were a relief compared to
Thanatos. Even as a criminal, Cho had recognized the threat Thanatos
posed and promised to help Danny stop him, but the day Danny needed
Cho, he never showed. Cho was the reason so many people died that
day—including Danny’s mother.
Danny
decides to teach the man a lesson and fan the fire of their
attraction into something more. At worst, he’ll get some
no-strings-attached sex out of the deal and finally blow off steam;
at best, he’ll get Cho to fall in love with him and then break his
heart to spite him.
Danny
doesn’t expect to fall for Cho in the process, and he certainly
can’t predict the much darker threat on the horizon.
