Kickstarter Exclusive Editions
The Goddess Games
Sixty contestants. One charming prince. A woman desperate to change her stars.
The Atlanteans, humans from ancient Greece, have returned in gleaming starships to evacuate Earth—starting with the Goddess Games. Nineteen-year-old Chloe Woods isn’t playing to win a crown or marry Prince Leonidas Agathon. She wants a different prize: control of her own destiny on Atlantis.
But as the competition intensifies—with cosmic storms, ruthless rivals, and rebel attacks—Chloe’s secrets, and the prince himself, threaten to upend her plans.
Perfect for fans of The Selection and The Atlantis Grail.
Rebel Plots
The Royal Vow
Coming to Kickstarter October 2025!
Twenty-four rivals. One crown. Two diverging paths.
Chloe Woods is caught in the middle—between Earth and Atlantis, between love and duty, and between winning the Goddess Games and surviving them. Passing the trials is hard enough, but the queen’s wrath, rebel attacks, and Lee’s parents’ disapproval make her victory feel impossible.
When a dangerous secret about the evacuation comes to light, Chloe’s trust in Lee—and the fragile bridge between two worlds—will face its greatest test.
