Desire of the Love Goddess
(2026)(The second book in the Daughters of the Divine series)
A novel by Adriana Steel
Everyone desires her. Only one man is immune. And he might be the only one who can save her.
Seraphine Rosewood commands desire itself. Blessed by the goddess of love, every man who sees her is consumed with desperate want—every man except Lucian Shadowmere, the cold assassin hired to protect her.
For eight years, she's been powerful, desired, utterly alone. Then a king's obsession turns dangerous, and suddenly the one man who feels nothing when he looks at her becomes the only one she can trust.
He's emotionally dead. She's drowning in others' desire. Together, they might destroy each other—or save everything.
Lucian doesn't want to feel again. After losing his wife, he buried his heart and became a weapon. But guarding Seraphine cracks something open he thought died years ago. She's brave, stubborn, and impossibly kind—and she sees him as a person, not a tool.
When the king imprisons Seraphine and demands marriage, she faces an impossible choice: keep her divine power and lose her freedom, or sacrifice everything she's built for a chance at something real.
But real love requires risk. And the cost might be more than either of them can bear.
A goddess's blessing. An assassin's redemption. A courtesan's sacrifice.
In a world where desire can be commanded, how do you know when love is genuine? When divine magic controls hearts, can choice ever truly be free?
Some loves are worth giving up everything for. Even immortal beauty. Even divine power. Even yourself.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
