Summer is a time of plenty, a time of excess. As the God of Summer, Cosmo has those in spades: Plenty of fear and an excess of guilt.
Abandoned by a cruel and absent father, judged and despised by his siblings, Cosmo has actually felt safer in the cursed centuries since his brother's tragic death, telling himself he's happy without his family, mingling with the mortals in his care and enjoying all the joys of summertime. He performs his duties to shepherd the season, drinks and smokes and warms his bed with anyone willing.
This time though, when he wakes, he comes face to face with his past. Literally. His brother is there. Auro, God of Spring, who he hasn't seen in four hundred years. And he's obviously lost his mind. He's telling Cosmo there's a way to break their curse, to be free of it—for the four of them to be together again. Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter. But there's an icy cold shadow looming over Cosmo, and the curse is the only thing protecting him.
DAUNTLESS SUMMER is the steamy, sweaty, slow-burn second book in the Harmony of Seasons queer sword-and-sandal fantasy romance quartet.
