“There is one other thing,” Eros said as he joined his parents.

“What might that be?” Jonathan asked.

“There may be a deadline to giving this arrow and golden apple back, and thus preserving the god of love,” he indicated himself, “from the tyranny and wrath of Artemis for having stolen it in the first place.”

“I thought you borrowed it?” Jonathan lifted a brow and then sighed. “When is this deadline?”

“Isn’t that obvious?” Eros said. “It’s Valentine’s.”

Jonathan and Amber walked up the steps of the ruins of what once was the grand temple of Athena and looked out across the beautiful blue sea of the Mediterranean.

He paused to take her hand and kiss her fingers. “Are you ready?”

“Yes.” Amber nodded.

Together they placed the
arrow and the golden apple on the altar and then stepped back.

They practically skipped down the stairs hand in hand as they ran down to the beach. Running across the sand, they played in the waves, laughing when they fell down.

“Maybe you can help me to remember,” Amber said, looking up into the face of the man whom she loved more than life itself.

He grinned wickedly. “I think we should just make some new memories,” he said before kissing her.
“And we can start by you becoming my wife.”

 

The End

Afterword

 

Dear reader,

Thank you for reading Cupid’s Treasure - Mystery of the Golden Arrow the sequel to Treasure of the Jaguar Warrior. In this book I asked myself what were some funniest iconic symbols of love and Valentines. Cupid, love potions, the ugly duckling turning into a beautiful swan along with one of the greatest of loves the Greek and Roman myths had to offer came to mind. I hope you liked what I managed to do with them and enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Writing a paranormal
series gives me the opportunity to delve into the fantasy of the mythology and let my imagination run loose with all the possibilities presented which has been a blast for me! Turning a Pinto into a super racing pony that can get some air is an absolute must the way I see it! Hahahaha!

If you loved
the antics in this story you’ll be happy to know that it doesn’t stop here. The wacky characters of this book are let loose again in the next story in this series, The Leprechauns Treasure - Mystery of the Four Leafed Clover.

Just
who will get
lucky
in love next?

About the Author

 

I love a book that takes me far away . . . to a time and place when the world was filled with mystery. Throw in some humor, nonstop action, a little romance and I’m pretty much hooked. Add to that an ancient mystery and I’m yours forever. . . . Well, at least until the book is finished.
Hahaha!

My series Treasure of the Ancients delves into the greatest mysteries of the Ancient world. I have spent years researching ancient cultures and their languages. To me, understanding their ancient beliefs as well as their writing is not only fascinating, but essential to writing a solid book.

My new series,
Paranormally Yours
, gives me the freedom to take a few more liberties with the myths I am so fascinated by. You could say I jumped into the paranormal world with both feet in writing these lighthearted stories. We are still exploring the ancient mysteries of the world, but in this series everything of fantasy, myth, and legend can and probably will pop up.

I have spent years as a professional artist, (please see my blog or website to view art) but it wasn’t until a late blessing came into my life, which magically transformed my oils into finger paints, that the opportunity to write the books I’ve dreamt of finally came.

I am blessed to have the most amazing supportive husband and family. I also have the best dog in the whole world, (see his picture in the dictionary next to “best dog ever”) and his sidekick, Mr. Widdle, aka Wiz-man, whose name has been changed to protect the little bugger. Let’s just say that it’s a good thing he’s cute because he has a few issues that were worse when he first came to us. He’s getting better, but at this time nothing is safe in the yard whether it’s edible or not, and the carpet is . . . well, soon to be ancient history!
