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

Awesome Story

I really loved the story. There are some parts that suspend credibility, but then, well, it is about a Greek demigod love slave and an ancient curse, so credibility isn't what it's all about. It's about fantasy, pure and simple and right there in the title, and in that scope, it certainly delivers. The narrator was not good at delivering this particular story, granted, but I've learned after a few hundred audio books to pick through the bad narration to the story and just go with it. The story was absolutely brilliant. I've bought the next two in the series based on my impressions of this one, and have every confidence I will love them too.

Oh! What we do after the sun sets!

Daruis, a powerful general from long ago, has been cursed and can only be summoned by a woman is a specific way. Grace, to satisfy her psychic friend, goes along with the summoning and...surprise...a handsome, naked man appears in her living room!

What to do, what to do? He is cursed to be forced to be a love-slave from full moon to full moon, and she is not interested in having him as a lover. He is persistent, she is determined. Who will win this battle of wills?

A Month

It took me a month to listen to this book i started it and then stopped it. But once I really gave it a chance it wasn't so bad. It took a turn that made it into an enjoyable read.

Fantasy lover, fantasy life, fantasy future

Someone feel free to drop a Greek God(Demi-god) in my lap any day of the week. Let me have him for 30 days of pure bliss with out the bliss. On that final day you best believe that the earth will have many a quakes going on. This new series for me will get much more of my time to see what else it has to offer me and my imagination.

This was intense, raw, deep. Julian found that there was more than being free. He also found that vengence burned deep. The beginning of the hunters gave me an otherworldly romance to come back to repeatedly. I look forward to each new addition.

I loved Grace. She was sweet, strong, innocent, independent, and more. Julian was wooooow. He was a Macedonia Warrior that hated Roman and his mother and his brothers. He was so much more than the curse that was place upon him. Watching him a Grace navigate the 30-days alotted him was filled with much. Grace had her own issues but this all too place during their time together. They shared so much in the short time and it was just beautiful.

Narrator had a sexy as sin accent ready for Julian. It was drool worthy. But there was some confusion in spots as to whether a male of female was the one doing the talking.

I will return to Julian of Macedonia again and again.

Love the Dark Hunters.

This is the first book in the Dark Hunter series. Although it doen't touch much on the dark hunters them selves. It is more about the god and goddesses than the deamon crisis. My favorites in the series are Dance with the Devil, Night Play and Devil may Cry.
