Looking for something fabulous to read on a summer afternoon while relaxing or on a rainy evening while summer storms rage outside, the novella, GODS AND GLADIATORS by Jaye Shields will fit the bill perfectly.

***Original copy provided for editing by author and my honest and unscripted review is my own - I would've loved it even if I didn't edit it.

The gods on Olympus are unhappy that the humans in the Roman realm have stopped honoring them with worship and celebration so when Eris, the goddess of Chaos offers up a game, Ares, the god of War takes up her challenge to spend one month among the humans to get them to once more worship the gods as they deserve.

Ares descends in human form to battle in the Coliseum, only once there, he discovers more than the Romans depravities of killing helpless women and children, he discovers love.

Eirana, a Gaul prisoner of the Romans strives to survive life beneath the deadly arena, but when a Roman gladiator named Ares saves her life and the lives of the other women, she discovers more than a hero. She encounters a god and falls in love.

GODS AND GLADIATORS by Jaye Shields is an extraordinary journey through time to a place of danger, helplessness, and brutal savagery, but where love triumphs. This well-written story about unexpected love developing amidst action-filled scenes, which expertly conjure amazing images of battle and destruction, will have you begging for more. The battles come to life before your very eyes, rather than just on the pages of a book. Jaye creates a wonderful romance between a warrior who has only known death, and an innocent woman who has witnessed more death than she should ever in her lifetime. Neither expects to survive yet they surrender their hearts and their bodies to each other at a time when only death may be their future outcome.

I highly recommend this wonderful novella from the author who brought you the thrilling paranormal romances, the Immortals in Alameda Trilogy and the erotic Sex Demon Trilogy. If you love the ancient world, mythology, and romance then you must read GODS AND GLADIATORS by Jaye Shields. I watched this story grow and refine as I assisted her in editing but it was Jaye, and Jaye alone, that brought Ares and Eirana’s story to life.

Happy Reading Everyone!
