Some girls have a type—Iliana’s just happens to be death-adjacent immortals with tons of emotional baggage.

After a curse nearly drives her to take her own life, Iliana wakes to find herself surrounded by gods—divine beings sworn to protect her. There’s Thanatos, the stoic Greek god of peaceful death with a tragic past. Anubis, the sharp-eyed Egyptian jackal who sees through every lie. Hermes, the charming trickster who’s not nearly as carefree as he pretends. And Hypnos, the god of sleep, who guards her dreams like it’s a burden he never asked for, but still can’t bring himself to let go.

Being guarded by gods has its perks—flirty banter, brooding stares, the occasional training session that toes the line between combat and foreplay. But their protection doesn’t guarantee survival. Not when fate has other plans for her.

A prophecy looms—one that ties her life to the divine in ways none of them understand. As Iliana learns to fight, trust, and feel again, she finds herself drawn to the very gods who were never meant to love her—or care

Because their love might save her—or it might destroy them all.
