She has dedicated her life to protecting the weak...
And watching him from afar.
But what use does she have for fated love?
Orion is both a living legend and a disgraced prince. Cast away by his mysterious patron goddess, his only goal is to earn his way back into her good graces. Little does he know that another goddess has designs for him or that the Fates have already mapped out his tragic destiny.
He is a mighty hunter. She is the Mistress of the Hunt.
Artemis is the guardian of the moon, the protector of maidens, and the chief of huntresses. What she is not, is tolerant of men. However, after an unfortunate prophecy, she finds herself strangely protective of Orion, who may just be the most infuriating mortal alive . . . and also the man doomed to love her.
She is the night. He is her brightest constellation.
When a calamity drives Artemis and Orion back together, she reluctantly takes him as her acolyte once again—temporarily. After all, the poor soul is already cursed to be smitten with her. Why prolong his pain when it is doomed to be unrequited love? For how could a maiden goddess ever fall for a mortal man?
And how could a mere mortal withstand the wrath of a goddess?
For better or for worse
She was always going to be his fate.
Maiden of the Hunt is the third installment of Love of Legends, a series of interconnected standalones. Love of Legends retells Greco-Roman myths as no-spice romantasies set in Ancient Greece. Each installment features a different couple who earn their happily ever after by the end of the book as well as crossover appearances from other characters in the series. Maiden of the Hunt is the climatic installment of the "Minoan Cycle" of Love of Legends, where each installment in this cycle features a couple that pairs a Cretan mortal and an immortal Primordial.
