Love and Family and the battle for it all!
L. Eveland, one of my favorite authors has presented us with the third book in The Ferryman universe. This amazing place filled with godlike men and men thinking they are gods which leads them to raise morally gray characters whose lives are founded in violence. That the men in these books can find each other and love each other is a miracle in itself!
Deathless is Diego and Jasper(Hephaestus) story but also the story of a group of Romani people, Russian folklore and the strong women( mothers and grandmothers) of both these men who are fighting to be human. Jasper's humanity is a fight of beauty and strength immensely strengthened by Diego, and finding the love of his daughter Mila when he wasn't sure it would actually be found intact, and then learning to be a father. Their love scenes grabbed where they could amidst battles and finding enemies were H.O.T., these broken men fighting to be whole.
I loved all these books, this one had an especially lovely HEA in light of the story.
To quote the author " family isn't always blood, love doesn't always look the same, and sometimes the most human thing you can do is protect the people who make you want to live."
