After his fall to Earth, Icarus has been in Hell, punished for his hubris. When he wins a chance at parole, he's thrilled - except for the set of wings attached to his body.
Eve Gregory runs a small bookstore in northern Connecticut. When she hires the handsome stranger to work for her, she doesn't know the secrets he's hiding. Or that becoming involved with him will embroil her with the Greek gods and goddesses.
Icarus and Eve must perform a quest set down for them by Zeus. If they are successful, will that be end of their relationship? Or will love teach them a new way to soar?

EXCERPT:
Athena
sat on the edge of the bed, going through her purse. Icarus grimaced, but went
to his bag and pulled out a shirt and pair of jeans that weren't too wrinkled.
Athena was right—he did need some new clothes—but he was not going shopping
with her looking over his shoulder. He grabbed his shaving kit and the clothes
and headed for the bathroom.
The
shower was hot and worked surprisingly well. Once Icarus had finished washing,
shaved, and dressed in his clean clothes, he felt much better. He came out of
the bathroom to find Athena had opened his laptop and was typing away. Apparently, passwords were not a problem for
ancient Goddesses of Wisdom.
"What
are you doing?" he asked.
"I'm
updating my Wikipedia page. Some of this information is incorrect," she
replied absently.
Icarus
laughed. "Don't you think they might find it odd if you add material that
the modern world doesn't know about you?"
Athena
pouted. "I have added it before, but they keep removing it since it doesn't
have proper sources." She shrugged and closed the laptop cover.
"Ready?"
"I
guess so."
Athena
waved a hand, and he was back in front of the bookstore. No one on the street
seemed to notice his sudden appearance.
Icarus
was abruptly nervous. He was not worried about the job; he was pretty sure he
was more than qualified for making lattes and recommending books. Eve Gregory
was the object of his concern. Petite little Eve with her golden eyes and black
hair framing her oval face. Pretty, too-trusting-for-her-own-good Eve. Whatever
scheme Athena had in mind also involved Eve, and that was worrisome. He
straightened his shoulders, opened the door, and walked into the store.
N.W. Moors lives in Portland, Maine, the land of lobster and pine trees. She grew up in Connecticut and retired north(it's nice along the coast in winter). She's a voracious reader and avid traveler - she loves to visit Great Britain and Ireland. Researching trips meant that she tries to learn as much about the area as possible and listen to great Celtic music. She's also a knitter and hiker/walker with two cats(the cats don't walk). She truly appreciates you sharing this adventure with her. She will continue to write about magic, love, and the small town of Antrim, Maine.
