In a universe where gods draw power from belief, love is the one force that can destroy them.

When the Lord God Almighty launches a lightning assault on Jupiter, King of the Roman Gods, Heaven explodes into war. But this is not a simple clash of thunder and angels. It is a battle over desire, obedience, and who decides which stories humanity is allowed to believe.

As divine empires collide, the conflict spills into the mortal world through two forbidden love stories.

The first is God's relationship with Mary, a young woman selected not for her will, but for her purity. What is proclaimed as divine grace reveals itself as something far darker: a ruthless experiment in control, submission, and sanctified obedience.

The second is the scandalous love between Jesus and Venus, Goddess of Love. Their bond is mutual, sensual, and defiant -- a vision of divinity rooted in pleasure, honesty, and freedom. It is everything the puritanical God cannot tolerate, and everything He seeks to destroy.

As Rome, Jerusalem, Heaven, and Hell spiral toward collapse, desire becomes heresy, love becomes rebellion, and belief itself is weaponised. Gods fall. Myths fracture. And the foundations of Christianity are forged in betrayal, shame, and blood.

Venus and the Crucified is a dark, provocative myth retelling that blends Roman mythology, forbidden romance, and historical fantasy into a fearless reimagining of the birth of Western faith.

This novel will offend some readers -- deliberately.
For others, it will be unforgettable.

Perfect for readers of controversial religious fiction, mythological retellings, and dark romance that dares to challenge sacred stories.
