Crown of Serpents

Revenge is a dish best served cold-and to the salivating mouths of a gorgon's snakes. At least, that was the assumption. When the slain gorgon Medusa is restored and brought back to life, all she can think about is how she can destroy the now legendary hero who killed her, Perseus, Prince of Argon. Her plan is simple enough. With an attractive disguise and an emotional backstory, she'll lure the champion to the murky waters of her own backyard, where she and her sisters can devour him whole. But when Medusa herself begins to fall prey to the prince's charm, her mission is put at risk. Her disguise, intended to be temporary, begins to fray, and Perseus's engagement to Princess Andromeda becomes more of a concern than Perseus himself. When Medusa's sisters begin to question her absence, and the palace household questions the unexpected behaviors of their new guest, everything comes into question. Warning: This is not your standard mythology retelling of sappy love between wounded gods and winsome mortals. This is about the other side of the mythos: the monsters and the chaos that comes with them.

The sizzling tale of Perseus & Medusa featuring female rage, enemies-to-lovers, and high-stakes action Medusa wants only one thing: revenge against the gods who abused and shunned her. Perseus would do anything to save his family from King Polydectes, the tyrant ruling his home - even slaying the infamous monster in exchange for his mother's freedom. Yet, when the hero and the gorgon collide, it remains unclear whether they will tear each other apart or become unlikely allies - powerful enough to challenge even Olympus. When Perseus finds Medusa, she is not the mindless beast he expected. He cannot bring himself to kill her and takes her prisoner instead. However, Perseus has neither considered how infuriatingly stubborn his captive is, nor that he would incur Poseidon's wrath by sparing Medusa. When a violent storm blows them off course, Perseus and Medusa must set their differences aside to survive the treacherous waters. As a bond forms between them, they are caught in the web of the powerful players that pitted them against each other. Can Perseus save his mother while sparing Medusa's life? Can Medusa withstand the wrath of the Olympians she has provoked?
