Summary

Eros and Adonis are immortal gods, destined to be on this planet together for all time. The only problem is that they hate and love one another. Trapped on a mission together by Zeus and Hades, the two are forced to work together to defeat a mysterious evil force that threatens every realm in Greece.
Eros has long felt he has not been taken seriously by the other gods due to his nature and his tendency to focus on passion over ruling. Now, he must prove himself capable and dutiful with a constant distraction, the beautiful Adonis. A man he has never forgiven for leaving him for no apparent reason.
Adonis died once long ago. He has secured immortality and ran from commitment, including fleeing from Eros, the man he loves the most. Commanded to work next to him, Adonis must decide if running from relationships for fleeting casual fun is truly what he wants. Can the two defeat a lethal enemy and discover if love remains after countless years of complications?

    CALLIE 
    After constantly looking over my shoulder as I run for my life, I’m on the brink of giving up. 
    On happiness. 
    On love. 
    On life. 
    Which is why, when a familiar face shows up where I’m hiding, I shock myself by running again. Though, probably not as shocked as Zeus is when I run him off the road with my car. 
    For some reason, my survival instinct is stronger than my mind is, and I find myself fighting for the life I’m not even sure I want. 
    On the run and nowhere to turn, I flee into the arms of the last person I should. Suddenly, I find myself involved in one of the worst crime syndicates in Las Vegas, and no way to get out. 
    ZEUS 
    Why would Callie run away from me? I’m delightful, damn it. I mean, sure, he probably thinks I’m trying to kill him, but I’m not. I’ve been hired to make sure he’s okay and that he’s surviving after escaping an abusive relationship, making mistakes, and putting multiple people’s lives in danger. 
    He screwed up, but he doesn’t deserve to die for it. And now, because of me, his life is at risk yet again. 
    Technically, my job is done. Callie is still breathing. That’s all I was supposed to find out. But I can’t sit by knowing he’s selling his soul. His body. I need to get him out, and I’ll go to any lengths to do it. 
    **Mike Bravo Ops Zeus deals with some sensitive topics. Please listen to the trigger warnings at the beginning of the book**

    Royal Scoundrel is the prequel novella between Charles's dads. Even though it takes place twenty years before the Frat Wars books, it's best enjoyed last. 
    DASH 
    Archibald Levine the third is a pain in my ass. Rich, cocky and the closest thing to a prince that our school has. 
    I hate everything about his entitled attitude and the stupid Kappa crown he wears. 
    I also hate the gigantic crush I have on the guy. 
    One night, backed up by the courage of tequila, my mouth gets away from me and I offer him the one thing he can't stop thinking about. 
    Me. 
    On my knees. 
    Because Archibald Levine also has a secret, and one kiss between us seals his fate. 
    The fling between us can never go anywhere, not with his powerful and homophobic father, but we don't let it stop us from indulging at every opportunity that we get. 
    I also don't let it stop me from falling stupidly in love with the guy. 
    He's always made it clear he can never come out and I know we're destined for destruction. 
    After all, happily ever after doesn't exist between a prince and a scoundrel.

    Michael McCabe doesn't take vacations—especially not after nearly losing his brother to a psychotic arsonist. But when an explosion rocks his enforced getaway in Tahiti, the off-duty SWAT officer is pulled into a crisis that looks like far more than bad luck. 
     
    Alex Kessler came to the islands to scatter his late wife's ashes—a final step in a grieving process that's consumed him for a year and a half. The last thing he expects is to be swept into danger . . . or into the guarded orbit of a man like Michael. 
     
    When the threat follows them back home to Seattle, survival means trust—and what began as a single violent incident spirals into something deeper: secret files, hidden agendas, and a classified operation known only as Project Asphodel. 
     
    As the danger escalates, so does their connection—raw, unexpected, and impossible to ignore. Sometimes what happens in Tahiti doesn't stay there. Sometimes, it follows you home. 
     
    Contains mature themes.
