Publisher's summary

I thought I was living the dream—until the fateful day I found my boyfriend in bed with my boss.

As a professional copywriter, it was the tired cliche that hurt me the most. What’s a big city girl to do but pack my bags and go solo on that Grecian cruise I’d booked with my ex? Who needs a man when you have tropical breezes, stunning vistas, and free cocktails with frilly umbrellas?

But thanks to a freak storm, I find myself washed ashore on a mysterious Greek Isle inhabited by 12 hotties determined to help me in any way they can.

What in the rom-com setup is this?

Somehow, I’ve ended up inside a famous Greek myth, tasked with conquering the very men I find myself unable to resist—despite their fur, fangs, tentacles, extra appendages, and extremely large…secrets of their own.

Danger lurks around every crumbling ancient ruin, but the longer I stay, the more I wonder if I want to return to my old life at all.

Here, I get to be the heroine of my own story, and it might just be time to rewrite history.

The 12 Hunks of Herculeia is a medium-dark rom-com loosely based on the 12 Labors of Heracles, with many ridiculous liberties taken. The series contains MM relationships arcs, swearing, very spicy extracurricular activities, an overly possessive, slightly unhinged group of men, and depictions of violence. Listener discretion is advised.

Spice heavy plot fun

Spice starts a couple chapters in and does not stop. If you are not one for monster peens and extra appendages, and sharp teeth, this is not for you. Fun book.

Overall great book.

Really enjoyed the story and the characters. Easily one of my favorite RH. This has genuinely peaked my interest to learn Greek mythology while I wait for the others to be released.

Fun story!

This was a fun RH, mythological monster tale. I enjoyed it and found myself laughing aloud several times! Narration was good. I love Kylie Stewart and she definitely didn’t disappoint! Gregory Salinas was a new narrator for me. I really liked his voice, I just wish he had more different “voices” for all the male characters. I found myself confused on more than one occasion on who was actually talking. Overall, I enjoyed this listen!

Umm excuse me?

Where the heck is the next book?!?! I can’t even put into words how much I freaking love this.

love love love

Love the story, love the characters, love the narrators, freakin hilarious. Just what I needed

I love anything by C. Rochelle!

I absolutely loved reading these books, and the audio is fantastic!! I will always read and listen to anything by C. Rochelle!

Safe travels, little wanderer!

When Herculeia finds herself the victim of a boat wreck and washed up onnthe shores of a Greek island, she does what she can to survive... Or rather, she is taken "hostage" by a hunky Greek God of a man who introduces her to his 4 buddies, in hopes they can all find their way off the island. This book is super steamy, and Leia, the instigator of the steamy-ness, is also a pro at helping these guys heal from their past and forgive each other for the grievances they have. It is pure $MUT with a fantastic storyline and a JAW DROPPING cliffy. One of my favorite books this year!!
**Audiobook** Gregory Salinas and Kylie Stewart were amazing at narrating this book. I am blown away by both of their skills. Kylie Stewart did a fantastic job with the slang and the accent and the age of the character. She was believable and entertaining, and quickly drew me into the book!

I was stunned to find out that Gregory was the only male voice narrator, and maybe I hadn’t paid close attention? Each voice was distinct and unique, and he did an incredible job with all of the voices he did! I was entranced by his acting.

Both narrators were amazing, and both narrators had very clean recordings with no issues with sibalance or plosives or mouth sounds. There was also no background noise, no equipment sounds, and the volume between characters/chapters was uniform. Excellent job all around!

I can’t do this wild ride justice! Buy your ticket ASAP!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I don’t think I have the words for it.

It was just fun! It was funny! It was soooo wrong in all the right ways.

I may have been ruined for all other monsters, and I am only halfway through.

My only negative comment is that I have to wait for the second installment.

Tick-tock, Bish.

super steamy and fancy peens 😉

I absolutely loved this book. Very spicy, fancy peens and the story with the mix in mythology is great! My only factor that doesn't make it a favorite is that there is more MM action that I don't really like, I am fine with some but this has more than what I'm fine with. Though it doesn't distract how good the story is.

Simply Perfect

I absolutely loved reading this book. I absolutely LOVED listening to this book even more! Kylie did wonderful with all of her accents for the characters- making me fall in love with them even more. Gregory didn’t do the accents but his voice was perfect for them.

They really brought the story to life. They made me love this story even more than I already did before listening to it.
