Ambrose is the demigod son of Hades, the ruler of the underworld. He is in charge of punishing those who were wicked in their lifetime, as well as housing lost souls, but there's only one soul Ambrose truly cares about; his mate's.
Once news spread of Malik, the son of Poseidon, finding his fated mate on Earth, Ambrose and his fellow demigods have been visiting the human world in hopes of finding their eternal love. His search has been difficult and futile, until he finally finds who he's been looking for; a broken young man with both physical and emotional scars. Ambrose holds the key to his mate's happiness and peace. He just has to earn his trust.
Marcus carries a large scar on his face, and receives many stares of pity or disgust. But the source of the mark causes more pain and suffering than the original injury, as it is a reminder of his shame and loss. Though he carries guilt and grief most days, there is one evening a year he allows himself to enjoy - an annual masquerade ball. When half of his face is hidden, he's comfortable being seen. Little does he know that he'll meet someone who can soothe ALL of his pain, and make him ready to rejoin the world...by taking him under it.
This low angst, quick read novella is full of sweet moments and steam. It contains no cheating or cliffhangers and has a very happy HEA!
