Claimed
All I ever wanted was adventure, and the Aegean wonderland of Oûros totally delivered. Caught up in a whirlwind vacation with my besties, I planned to climb its rugged mountains, windsurf its wild waves, and totally conquer its beaches.
What I didn’t plan on? Stefan Mihal, the kingdom of Oûros’s icy cool, uber-sophisticated, drop-dead-gorgeous diplomat—and a freaking demigod of Hermes—who thinks I’m the most inappropriate woman on the planet.
I mean, he’s not wrong, but who asked him? I can take care of myself. Never mind the potentially devastating diagnosis the medical specialists are just waiting to hand me—taking away my last chance at having adventures ever again. I’m going to ride this wave as long as possible.
Then the royal family asks me to team up with Mr. Ice Cube on an impromptu mission across Oûros’s borders, and I’m totally in. I’ll prove myself to the royal family, to the Greek gods, and even to Stefan the Impossible that I’ve got what it takes. Knowing what I know about my potentially limited future, I just can’t fall in love with him.
My heart can take anything but that.
