Bellona

Bellona, the Roman goddess of war, lives in secrecy among mortals, concealing her divine identity while offering her services as a skilled protector and mercenary. It's a dirty job, but someone has to do it, and she was totally fine with it until one day, when a mortal man kissed her, she experienced peace for the first time. And she's been pouting about it ever since.

Rafael has never forgotten the beautiful angel of death who swooped in to save him twenty years ago. With a bounty on his head and his business partners ready to sell him out, Rafael has no choice but to call a secret phone number that has been passed down through his family. He just didn't expect the same mercenary to answer.

With Fate pushing them together once more, Bellona will do anything to keep Rafael safe from his enemies, even if it means ignoring how the cheeky mortal makes her feel. Rafael might be a moving target for every bounty hunter in Italy, but he's not going to let his angel of death get away from him a second time.

The goddess of war is about to encounter the one battle she can't win, and it's going to force her to question everything she ever knew about herself.
