Publisher's summary

Dear Reader,

Being trapped in a bedroom with a woman is a grand thing. Being trapped in hundreds of bedrooms over two thousand years isn't. And being cursed into a book as a love-slave for eternity can ruin even a Spartan warrior's day.

As a love-slave, I know everything about women. How to touch them, how to savor them, and most of all, how to pleasure them. But when I was summoned to fulfill Grace Alexander's sexual fantasies, I found the first woman in history who saw me as a man with a tormented past. She alone bothered to take me out of the bedroom and onto the world. She taught me to love again.

But I was not born to love. I was cursed to walk eternity alone. As a general, I had long ago accepted my sentence. Yet now I have found Grace--the one thing my wounded heart cannot survive without. Sure, love can heal all wounds, but can it break a two-thousand-year-old curse?

Julian of Macedon

Mythical Gods Galore

The speaker in the book I though did a good job. The story was good with strong characters and few mortals here and there. Also some yummy sex and violence. A stalker , kidnapping and more. There were many funny times in here too.

Love Love Love

I had a fire and lots all my Dark Hunter books a few years ago. So now I just had to buy them and listen to them again but this time via Auditable. They are still amazing whether I read them or they are read to me.

Pleasant surprise!

At first I was worried the narrator would be annoying but I got used to her. Loved the story but should say I listened to it last in the series, lol! Not on purpose, I just didn’t know it was first, lol. I’m glad I bought this one because I wanted to know Julian’s story. I will definitely listen to this again!

Awesome

I was really surprised with this book, I loved it. The story was great, I never got bored. I didn't want the book to end. I hope the rest of the books in this series are just as good.

Fun First Sherri Novel

This is Sherrilyn Kenyon's first novel, and I read it well after reading some of her later (and better) books, but this one is still pretty fantastic.

It is most definitely a sex book. Graphic and erotic and wonderful. Be warned! Don't go reading this at church or around your grandma.

Overall, the story is great and the reading, though awkward to listen to sometimes because of the intimate details, is enjoyable. I love Sherrilyn's world and the characters that are all interconnected!
