Series Info

GODDESS LEGACY

Goddess Series, Book 1

Legacy Kore is an average seventeen year old with your basic insane crush on the hottest guy in school... rather Adin Shepard was the hottest guy in school before he graduated a couple of weeks ago. Now it’s summer vacation and she’s not sure when she’ll get to see him again. Until he shows up at her surprise seventeenth birthday party. Cue saliva glands--it’s time to drool.

But her giddiness is cut short when her guardian delivers an emotional blow, telling Legacy her mother hadn’t died when she was baby, but that she’d left for Legacy’s protection all those years ago. After the initial shock, she expects some story about how her mother was in the Witness Protection Program or something else just as crazy, but when she’s told that her mother is a Greek Goddess and that Legacy is changing into one too, she thinks her guardian needs a trip to a mental hospital. Legacy a goddess? Um, yeah. Right. And her BFF is the Easter Bunny.

While trying to make sense out of something that was impossible to believe, Adin asks Legacy out on a date. She is thrilled that her fantasy might become a reality, but when she meets the new guy in town, River, she discovers everything isn’t always as it seems, and the legacy she wants just might not be the legacy she is destined to have.

GODDESS SECRET

Goddess Series, Book 2

Legacy only thought she had this goddess thing under control. Well, as much as any other chick could have given the crazy circumstances. But when she learns the truth about her abilities, she is forced to keep a secret so powerful that she and the people closest to her could get hurt if it falls into the wrong hands.

Then there’s Venus, the goddess Adin is bonded to. And River, the god Legacy is bonded to. Do Legacy and Adin have a chance at a real relationship or are these external factors going to pull them apart? It won’t stop them from trying…or letting things heat up between them as they explore the boundaries of their relationship. Where’s the fun in just focusing on her ascension? Nothing wrong with having fun with her boyfriend.

As long as she keeps her secret…

GODDESS SACRAFICE

Goddess Series, Book 3

Legacy wouldn’t let a little thing like changing into a goddess distract her from the joys of her senior year in high school...or hanging with her friends. She enjoys the dances and parties and getting closer to Adin...even trying her hand at seducing him. She’s ready to take their relationship to the next level, regardless of any bond she might have with River and any bond Adin has with Venus.

But the prophecy is still there, lurking in the background. And while Legacy is wrapped up with living her life in the now, forces are at work solidifying her future. With the damage done and the full meaning of the prophecy exposed, she’ll be forced to face the consequences...and protecting those she loves compels her to make the greatest sacrifice.

GODDESS REVENGE

Goddess Series, Book 4

Hell hath no fury like a goddess scorned… at least that’s the way Legacy sees it. Her dreams collide into a message she did not want to acknowledge, but the implication ignites within her hotter than the knowledge of the betrayal itself. The only thing to do to cure getting mad? Getting even. And oh boy, she is going to get even!

Legacy dives into a betrayal of her own making as she teaches her lesson. But can she deliver her punishment without losing her true self in the process, or will the bitter feeling of keeping her enemy close backfire and propel her down a road she never dreamed she’d travel?

One thing’s for certain—revenge doesn’t come without a price.

GODDESS BARED

Goddess Series, Book 5

The consequences of her actions are too much. Legacy was warned what would happen, but she thought she could outsmart it. She was wrong. How can she pick up the pieces of her life when all she now has is a void existence? The life she wanted...gone. Her heart has been ripped out, leaving her soul bared. The prophecy she’s been battling from the beginning has finally come true. And everything hurts. She never dreamed facing her legacy would be this devastating.

Legacy has known all along that everything happens for a reason. She’s been told that from practically everybody. She must find the strength to reach the stage of acceptance and move on with her life. Gods, why did things have to be this way?

But learning to accept the truth might be easier than she thinks. Her life has been filled with warnings, and one of those is that not everything is as it seems. Maybe there’s a reason that warning had come from Adin...

Guest Post

Hi, ya’ll! I want to thank the peeps with Toot's Book Reviews for having me here today. :) This is my first official tour celebrating the books in this series since I’ve been so busy trying to get these out as quickly as I can, so I’m going to make it worth your time to join in the fun.

Who likes a good love triangle? I know I do. I don’t always reach for ones that involve cheating, but when two guys are actively pursuing the same girl? RAWRRR! I love it! If you follow me at all online, you probably already know that I love to read. I read over 100 books a year and sometimes I have to force myself to meet my daily writing goals by bribing myself with (hopefully) a great book to read. Even after all this time. But if you want to be a writer, I firmly believe you have to love to read…which works out perfectly for my book addiction.

Now that I’ve started getting asked a lot about the Goddess Series, many people want to know about the love triangle. With that, I’m going to bring up River (I’m picking on him today… everybody gets a turn). Some people have told me they love him, some hate him. The easiest way for me to explain my love for him is by going back to all those books I’ve read where there were love triangles. Many times it was quite obvious who the main couple was going to be, and the “other” guy was kinda ignored… feeling more like a plot device for the main couple or even just filler. I didn’t want that. At all. I wanted everybody to be completely whole and mean more than just fluff. Since the complete story arc of Legacy’s journey is spread out over all six books in this series, I approached each character with my full attention. From major to minor, everybody has a story, a place. I feel that this approach will keep you guessing until the very end… and based on some of the emails I’ve received so far, it was worked very well *insert wicked laughter here*

So yeah, there’s a love triangle here. Is it the main focus of the series? Nope. But I just love it when two hot guys are fighting over a chick. ;-) How about you? Tell me about a love triangle you’ve read that you absolutely loved or that kept you guessing until the very end. Or if you have a personal love triangle to share, we’re all ears, er, eyes, I guess. One commenter will win their choice of an ebook from this series!

And if you really like winning stuff, check out my Facebook Fan Page. I have a contest running during this tour where one winner will receive a $100 gift card to Amazon or Barnes and Noble! https://www.facebook.com/mwmuse.author
