She was the face that launched a thousand ships, The fierce beauty at the heart of Olympus, And she was never ours to claim. *A scorchingly hot modern retelling of Helen of Troy, Achilles, and Patroclus that's as sinful as it is sweet.* In Olympus, you either have the power to rule...or you are ruled. Achilles Kallis may have been born with nothing, but as a child he vowed he would claw his way into the poisonous city's inner circle. Now that a coveted role has opened to anyone with the strength to claim it, he and his partner, Patroclus Fotos, plan to compete and double their odds of winning. Neither expect infamous beauty Helen Kasios to be part of the prize...or for the complicated fire that burns the moment she looks their way. Zeus may have decided Helen is his to give to away, but she has her own plans. She enters into the competition as a middle finger to the meddling Thirteen rulers, effectively vying for her own hand in marriage. Unfortunately, there are those who would rather see her dead than lead the city. The only people she can trust are the ones she can't keep her hands off--Achilles and Patroclus. But can she really believe they have her best interests at heart when every stolen kiss is a battlefield? Deliciously inventive...Red-hot.--Publishers Weekly STARRED for Neon Gods I get shivers just thinking of their interactions. SHIVERS.--Mimi Koehler for The Nerd Dailey for Neon Gods

Or another great option is to not take chances and leave it alone.

They won't harm you. If they do? I'll make you a widow.

Are Patroclus and Achilles in a relationship or are they just close friends who eventually may share the same girl?

He's got glasses perched on the end of his nose, and he looks so adorably nerdy.

Damn girl, angry sex is good for you, then.

Now that we've established that I can take you, stop trying to pretend you have a noble streak and fuck my mouth like you mean it.

All those fuckers who think you're just a pretty prize to be won? Prove them wrong." 

Patroclus sighs and sets down his e-reader. He's got glasses perched on the end of his nose, and he looks so adorably nerdy, I want to kiss him. 

Everything in Olympus ends in tears. You have to take your joy where you can find it.

Better to use honey than vinegar, better to get someone to do what you want with a little manipulation than by bashing them over the head with whatever weapon is closest at hand.

Zeus is still talking, spinning a whole lot of bullshit about tradition. Olympus is up to its tits in tradition. It's their excuse for everything, a line of reasoning that conveniently takes the responsibility from the people actually doing the actions.
