About this ebook

He has just one task: making her his own.\

The day Hercules laid a fist against another man was the day he realized he’d spend forever wanting the one woman he didn’t deserve. Defending her honor came with a price — but with the time served and battle scars endured, absence has only intensified feelings that not even a god could force into submission...

Daisy has long since learned to spill her pain onto a canvas — paintings of the hidden terrors that torture her by night have made her name as an artist. But none of them show the darkness Daisy truly fears: the deepest, unspoken desires of her body.

When their paths cross for the first time since adolescence, Herc is determined to step into the fray and defeat Daisy’s demons. At least, until he can show this dark, tormented goddess exactly what she’s capable of...

HERO WORSHIP is a steamy standalone by USA Today bestselling author Amelia Wilde. Featuring the super-strength alpha of Greek mythology and the woman he swore to protect, this dark romance brings together an age-old legend and unspeakable desires.

Amelia Wilde blows my mind with every book she writes. Her talent knows no bounds as each book shows a different element to her creativity and given how many books she's written, that shows an author with so many layers. She's obviously put those layers of talent and creativity into the perfect career. The plot to this story uses a combination of Greek mythology and today's loved tropes to have any reader addicted from the first chapter. Amelia writes poetic reality effortlessly. There is also a paranormal feel that had me questioning several times whether it was a paranormal story. I felt so much emotion, and I felt spellbound from beginning to end. There are three separate trilogies that tell the stories of Hercules' and Daisy's family. It includes Daisy's dad, Hades, and his brothers, Zeus and Poseidon. I haven't read those trilogies, and I can say it didn't take away from this story, but now, I'm DYING to read them. I fell in love with Hades, Zeus, and Poseidon's connection to each

Amelia Wilde has done it again! From page one, I was hooked on Daisy and Hercules' story. Daisy may ring a bell to you. She’s Hades daughter, just all grown up now. She has a secret, though, and it has sent her clear across the country. When she suddenly finds her life in danger, her very overprotective uncle Zeus sends his adopted son Hercules to protect her. The only problem is they "hate" each other or so they each think. The fact is they would do anything to save the other. Gah!!! Their love story is epic!! I mean, seriously, he would literally die for her. Throughout Hero Worship, I was on the edge of my seat, not knowing how this was all going to turn out. Mad props to the unique storyline Amelia Wilde created. I swear my heart was racing at times. But it was also emotional. My heart broke a little for Hercules and the things he'd been through. It made their HEA that much sweeter. **side highlight....the interactions with Hades, Zeus, and Poseidon. They may be my all-time favo
