About this Event

Step into Olympus, where love is messy, revenge is divine, and no one escapes unscathed. We’re celebrating the release of with a night that’s equal parts drama, desire, and delicious chaos.

Join us for an intimate conversation with Katee Robert as she dives into the tangled, intoxicating relationships at the heart of her latest novel, from Hermes’ long-burning grief and fury to the complicated, magnetic pull between Atalanta and the woman who was supposed to be lost forever.

As you arrive, you’ll be invited to grab a pre-signed copy of Shattered Gods, and choose your goddess: Hermes, Circe, or Atalanta, setting the stage for an evening of shifting loyalties, tangled desire, and divine drama.

Expect candid talk about queer myth-making, morally gray heroines, and the kind of romance that simmers, snaps, and refuses to play by the rules. Then, keep the energy going with a meet and greet where you can snap a photo, and maybe debate whether you’d follow love, vengeance, or something far more dangerous, because in this Olympus, hearts aren’t just broken…they’re reborn in fire.

Please note:

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Katee Robert is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of spicy romance. Entertainment Weekly calls their writing “unspeakably hot.” Their books have sold over a million copies. They live in the Pacific Northwest with their husband, children, a cat who thinks he’s a dog, and two Great Danes who think they’re lap dogs.


ABOUT SHATTERED GODS

She was Olympus's Queen. Its sacrifice. Its savior. Its destruction.

Long ago, Circe was Hermes' entire heart. The two women lived on the outskirts of Olympian society, content with a quiet life away from the spotlight. Then Circe caught the eye of Zeus…and was forced into a marriage that would take her freedom, her future, and in the end, her life. In the wake of the tragedy, gossip swirled about the woman Zeus married and (allegedly) murdered…but in time, everyone forgot about beautiful, tragic Circe.

Everyone but Hermes, who vowed on that day to bring Olympus to its knees.

Now, fifteen years later, a new Zeus rules the city, a new Hades protects his people, a new hope dawns…and Hermes has begun to think there may be things about Olympus worth saving. With Atalanta by her side—and slowly rebuilding her heart—Hermes may finally be ready to set aside her fury and seek the city's rebirth instead of its total annihilation. But there is a beautiful devil on Hermes' other shoulder: a devil who rose, blood-soaked, from where Zeus left her for dead years ago. A devil who has waited all this time to have her revenge.

And no matter their past, no matter the desperate love they once shared, no matter the complicated triad forming between the three women, Circe will not rest until all of Olympus lays shattered at her feet…and the gods help anyone who gets in her way.

A scorchingly hot modern retelling of Hermes and Atalanta and Circe.
