Go on a roller coaster ride with Tank, a man who battled a tortured past to become a “made man,” determined to win no matter what he must do, or who he must hurt in the process. From the day he was born, Martaveous “Tank” Young had to fight for what was his. No parents, no family, mentally and physically abused throughout his childhood: the challenges he endured only made him stronger, and soon, the man who grew up with nothing had it all. Now, Tank is the man running the streets and the city, both legal and illegal. His money is long, his patience is short, and his reach is far. Finally, at the pinnacle of the game, he’s decided that the time has come to leave the streets alone and retire, enjoying the life of luxury he’s worked hard to achieve. But when vengeance rears its ugly head and Tank is the target, it almost costs him everything, including his life.

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.
