She calls to him. Come to me. You can't resist. But Gryphon will not allow himself to be ruled by the insidious whispers in his head. And there's only one way to stop them: kill Atalanta, the goddess who enslaved him. But with so much darkness inside, he can't be sure what's real anymore. Even the Eternal Guardians, those who protect the human realms and the gods, want to exile him.
Finding Malea is like a miracle. Somehow he doesn't feel the pull of the dark when she's near. And he's determined to keep her as near as possible, whether she wants him close or not. But she's a temptation that will test every bit of control he has left. One that may ultimately have the power to send him back to the underworld . . . or free him from his chains for good.

Naughton returns to her daemon-fighting Argonauts in this romantically disappointing fifth Eternal Guardians adventure (after Enraptured). After Gryphon is rescued from enslavement in the Underworld, the evil goddess Atalanta, who wants the Argonauts destroyed, sends her voice to haunt him. Planning to return to Atalanta to kill her, Gryphon kidnaps Maelea, an immortal woman hunted by Hades, whose presence dulls Atalanta’s voice. Both outcasts and loners, Gryphon and Maelea discover mutual attraction and understanding, and their initial dislike becomes heated passion. Maelea’s contemplation of Stockholm syndrome is amusing, given her initial captivity and rough handling at Gryphon’s hands, but her sudden change of heart strains the credulity of their romance. Naughton’s complex setting—filled with Greek gods, monsters, heroes, and the machinations of bureaucrats and villains—is worth exploring, and series readers will be satisfied by the steamy sex scenes and development of an intriguing world. Agent: Laura Bradford, Bradford Literary Agency.
