Opis

Do you Love modern retellings of Greek Myths? Ever wish you could give your headaches to other people? My Lady Olives (Fantasy Romance/Mythology) is a captivating story of a modern incarnation of Athena. Olisbeth Mason is a shy, awkward girl who has suffered with migraines so frequently that she is a social outcast, a freak without friends. She is the only child of a retired Army First Sergeant, sheltered and protected by her father after her mother's mysterious disappearance when she was a young. Olisbeth is a socially unaware know-it-all, finding comfort and headache relief in books and studies, and her great memory retention allows Olisbeth to be the smartest person she knows. When she goes to college, she meets twin siblings Phoebe and Arthur Thomas. Phoebe, her roommate, is a vivacious medical student who is bright, charming, and hard to hate (even if she does act like she is the center of the Universe). Phoebe is Olisbeth's roommate, and has declared that she is going to be Olisbeth's lifelong best friend. Ladies' man Arthur is an athlete who goes from "dark and brooding" to "center of the party," sometimes even within a single day. He is a leader of one of the most popular fraternities on campus, and has decided to focus his affections on Olisbeth. Soon, the twins become vital parts of Olisbeth's life, becoming her best friend (and boyfriend). They teach her how to spread her headaches to others. But the twins are hiding something from Olisbeth: They are really Apollo and Artemis, and Olisbeth is Athena. And this incarnation of Athena is at the center of an ancient prophecy that will lead to her doom and cause dramatic changes to the face of Mount Olympus. Romantic, adventurous, and thought-provoking, My Lady Olives tells the story of the life of a 21st Century Athena. Exploring the life of gender-swapped gods: Artemis and Apollo. Athena in a modern, college setting: facing thoughts of sex, romance, and overbearing parental figures Sequel upcoming in April, 2015 Scroll up and grab your copy today
