ParaMatch.Com by MK Mancos


Available today from Samhain Publishing: ParaMatch.com by MK Mancos!


She can match anyone. Except the man she can’t resist.

Dating in today’s world is tough enough. Pair it with a paranormalady, and Lucille Wainwright is living the recipe for loneliness. Born a talentless witch in a family of legendary spellcasters, she’s managed to carve a niche for herself with ParaMatch.com, a matchmaking service for paranormal beings.

What she lacks in the magic department, she more than makes up for with her uncanny ability to conjure committed relationships out of any combination of traits and backgrounds. Until now.

Enter Jager Cronus, deposed king of the Titans and successful paratrader. As a client, he’s a nightmare. As a man, he’s irresistible. When he demands a date with her to the annual Legion Halloween Dance, she’s hard pressed to refuse. With her professional ethics warring with a deep need to prove herself, she gives him two more chances to find love.

That’s all the opening Jager needs. After all, he didn’t survive his downfall without learning a few things about prevailing in the face of the stiffest negotiations.

Now he’s about to negotiate the deal of a lifetime—a future with Lucilla.

Incubus, succubus, nymphs, sirens, Georgan (medusa), Centaur (nah, I am not into bestiality! lol).
Even vamps, shapeshifters, demons, they are all part of mythology somewhere! :D

Okay, everything I know about Mythology you could put in a thimble. I wasn't even going to comment, but my house is full of cupids...so Cupid. He's not much of a hero, but I love the little guy.

I like the party boys and the troublemakers... Bacchus, Loki... what's life without laughs? It would also be a nice change to see some Native American or Eastern Indian heroes. Hmm, maybe one of the gods with a Kama Sutra connection? (Talk about high expectations -- that could be an entertaining comedy!

I know very little about mythology as well. Zippo about Greek and Roman myth. That said, how about the Knight's Templar. They are supposed to be immortal right? And they are the good guys.

On the flip side of the coin, who can resist a bad boy? I second the motion for Bacchus. Maybe Styx. Isn't he the guy that guard the river between life and death? And didn't Hades have the girl with the pomegranet seeds? He's almost got a bit of the beauty and the beast thing going.
