Medusa's Desire (Fate of Eros #1) by E.B. Black

Tales of love and heartbreak. The stories that the gods never wanted you to hear about.

Medusa remembers what it was like to be human and the memories are painful. As a monster, she's alone. Everyone who looks at her screams and transforms into a statue. She's tired of trying to make friends and killing people instead.

When one human man, Perseus, is sent to kill her by the gods, she accepts it. She's tired of this life and ready to die. But instead of assassinating her, he falls in love after seeing what she suffers through. He can't look into her eyes, but he can touch her. His caress makes her body sizzle with more passion than she's ever felt before.

But can a monster find true love when she's accidentally killed everyone else she's cared about? Read More

MY REVIEW:
4.0 out of 5 stars Paralyzed with Contentment, April 8, 2016

As a kid growing up watching the original Clash of Titans and beholden to a fascination with folklore and mythology, I was always dissatisfied with the incompleteness of Medusa's story. It had to be a bittersweet love story, the best kind imo, and with this book I finally received the love story I'd always fantasized behind the monster that was the eldest of the gorgons. Of course EB Black tells it so much better than I imagined, I can confidently say that I'm satisfied with this neglected figure's story at last being told as it should be - bittersweet and endearing.
