About this listen
Two women in love and in danger. Mob families at war. An explosive and enthralling contemporary reimagining of the Helen of Troy myth set against the splendor of the Grecian islands.
Paris is a fixer for mob families on the Grecian islands when a powerful crime lord hires her to investigate a bombing. Insinuating herself into Zarek’s circle is the chance for revenge that Paris has been waiting for since she was a child. Years ago, Zarek wiped out everyone she loved. Now it’s Paris’s turn. Her target? Zarek’s beautiful daughter, Helen.
Helen wants nothing more than to abandon the violent world in which she was raised—and worse, an arranged marriage to a man she barely knows. In Paris, Helen sees the perfect tool to help her escape. And in Helen, Paris sees a desperate woman who will be the perfect revenge. As the two work together to find the bomber, and their connection becomes increasingly intimate, Zarek’s empire grows more fragile and their own bonds of loyalty and purpose are tested.
When murder sends them fleeing to Troy, danger only brings Paris and Helen closer together—in love, in fury, and in the will to survive. If Zarek wants a war, Paris and Helen are ready to ignite it.

Critic reviews
“Original, clever, deftly crafted, and a riveting read from cover to cover…A prized pick…”—Midwest Book Review
“Ever wondered what would happen if the legendary Helen of Troy story took place in today’s world? We Are the Match gives you the answer with a thrilling sapphic twist…The author breathes new life into this classic tale by transforming it into a contemporary LGBTQ+ story about forbidden love and loyalty. The chemistry between Helen and Paris crackles with tension—enemies to lovers at its finest.”—ASLesbian
“A dark mafia romance just steaming with secrets and lies and revenge, backed upon a legendary Greek myth…an interesting spin on the Greek myth but also the genre. It’s not easy to come across a well written dark steamy FF read, as most are short or just plain erotica. Thankfully, we are taken on an actual thrilling journey with these two, where side characters also gained my adoration and attention. We dive into the rabbit hole of crazy family drama, a world filled with controlling men and total psychos we can’t wait to have killed off. Things are explosive in this read.”—The Dragon Den Book Blog
Excellent narration brings it all together. 🎶
