Child of War A God Is Born

Slow BurnForbidden LoveFated Mates

Raven, heir to Ares and born of fey blood, carries a power that unsettles Olympus — and a temper that does not bend.

Child of War – A God Is Born

Ares has faced armies.
He has defied Olympus.

But nothing unsettles the gods like the birth of his son.

From his first breath, Raven carries a power that does not wait to grow — and a pride that does not bow.

Something has shifted.

And Olympus feels it.

Son of Ares. Son of a fey. A child forged in war.

Cernuous warned them:
He will bring glory to his father.
He will bring heartache to his mother.

Zeus was less poetic.
The boy would be their ruin.

From the beginning, Raven is not like other children. His temper is merciless. His pride is boundless. His contempt for weakness — especially his fey blood — runs deep. And Olympus watches with growing unease.

As ancient grudges resurface and divine politics tighten like a noose, Ares is forced into a brutal pact with Zeus — a gamble that may secure his family's future or burn it to ash.

But power in a child is not easily guided.
And resentment in a god’s heir is not easily contained.

Raven is no innocent.
He is a prince of war.

And before Olympus understands what he is becoming, blood will already have been spilled.
The second installment in the For the LOVE of WAR saga — where legacy becomes weapon, prophecy becomes threat, and a dark prince begins to rise.

Epic. Dark. Unapologetically Adult.

About the Author

Lisa Beth Darling
I write stories where ambition is cunning, gods fall, families fracture, faith is tested, and love doesn’t play by 21st century rules. It is an inferno of passion daring all to try to extinguish it.

From modern day Olympus to small town America, my characters are not small and neither are their stories. Here life is messy, lines blur, and sometimes the world is upside down as it while it spins out of control.

If you crave tales with intensity and teeth, grit and hunger, where darkness reveals the light, welcome.
