A Winning Streak: The Story of Atalante
by Tea Cooper
Abandoned at birth, Atalante, protégé of the goddess Artemis is forced into an untenable position by her estranged father, the King of Arcadia – renege on her vow of virginity or condemn her suitors to a sacrificial death.
The aristocratic courtier Melanion, cannot believe anyone would be foolish enough to put their life on the line for the dirty little predator whose reputation for speed and cruelty are legendary. That is until he falls under Atalante’s spell.
Consumed by desire and jealousy Melanion is determined to win Atalante’s hand or die trying. He calls upon Aphrodite to assist him, little realizing that her noisome brat, Eros has the pair of them in his sights and is determined to inject a little spice into their life. Spice that will devastate the path of true love and incur the wrath of the virgin goddess Artemis.
