AutografiaGOgò has a new event on the calendar: Hazel Riley will be signing copies of her new novel, Game of Desire (Sperling & Kupfer)!

The Book:

Are you ready to play with the goddess of love?

Aphrodite Lively has never been free to choose her own destiny. Daughter of Cronos, she was raised in the luxury and danger of Olympus, an island where gambling intertwines with unspeakable secrets. In her family, she has always believed that her worth lies not in her dreams or intelligence, but solely in her beauty.

But when three girls who resemble her are found dead, the message is clear: she’s next. To protect her, her father assigns her a bodyguard—Thymós, a former soldier with a shadowy past and an unreadable gaze. A man born to obey, yet when it comes to her, everything becomes a challenge.

The attraction between them is instant and dangerous—a game neither of them wants to play. As Aphrodite fights to prove she doesn’t need saving, she will soon discover that the enemy is much closer than she thinks. Because in the Lively world, love is a gamble. And losing means death.
