No escape, no fun, no sex... What's a forgotten goddess to do? It's been three months since Kari, an Etruscan Goddess, was kidnapped and her two hot captors have yet to lay a hand on her. She hasn't been playing hard to get. In fact, she's made it clear she'd be more than happy to pass the time more...pleasurably. Yes, Den and Jacoby may work for the Malandante, but they're not evil. They're yummy. Den would gladly give Kari everything and anything she wants. He wants to take her up on the offer in her teasing smile, but he needs something in return.

But even the best-laid plans can go wrong...and when Kari, Jacoby and Den need to rescue Emelia, none of them expect the fight to cost more than they're willing to pay.
