He was my savior. My monster. My obsession. My destruction.*A scorchingly hot modern retelling of Ariadne and her Minotaur.*
Ariadne Vitalis is in trouble. She's betrayed her father-and his benefactor-and now she's left to rely on the questionable mercy of Olympus to keep her safe. As with everything in this city, mercy comes with a price. For Ariadne, that means a marriage to Dionysus. She has no choice but to agree, even if there's only one man she's ever wanted-a man she's feared just as much as she desires.
The Minotaur never had any illusions about Minos's plans. He was willing to get his hands dirty as long as the old man kept his word-at the end of this, the Minotaur would be given Ariadne as a reward. Nowhere in that deal was her walking down the aisle to a different man. She's meant for him, and he means to have her.
Ariadne knows better than to encourage the Minotaur. Her relationship with her new fiance might be more friendship than burning passion, but she is all too aware of how much fiery passion can hurt. She and the Minotaur are no good for each other. She can never forgive him for what he's done, and he can never change. But when his hands are on her body and his wicked words are whispered in her ear, she might just be willing to let all of Olympus burn...

Cute Concept but a Little Abstract for Younger Kids
Format: Board book
The illustrations are bright and friendly and the board book format is sturdy, so it holds up well with little hands flipping pages a bit aggressively. The rhyming flows okay, not perfect poetry but not awkward either. That said, the concept might be a little abstract for very young kids depending on their age. Mine liked the pictures but didn’t fully connect the idea without explanation, so it ended up being more of a guided read than an independent “get it right away” story. It feels like a good conversation starter book rather than a quick bedtime read you can breeze through half asleep. Still cute, just something to be aware of depending on your kid.

A Book That Made the Moon Extra Special
Format: Board book, Format: Board book
This book has quickly become a favorite in our home. Our daughter absolutely loves the playful idea of the moon looking like a banana, and how many bananas come together to make a full moon. Since reading it, she gets so excited pointing out both bananas and the moon, and it’s been amazing to see her make that connection. It’s her first choice every morning and every evening at story time. The concept is simple, imaginative, and perfectly suited for young children. It’s become a cherished part of our daily routine, and we highly recommend it.

My daughter understood the phases of the moon so much better after reading this story. My ABA students also really enjoyed it — it’s simple, unique, and wonderfully engaging all at once. The book is beautifully written, nicely illustrated, and truly touched my heart. I highly recommend it to parents and teachers alike! 🌙💫
