The Playground of the Gods
Only one place on earth can serve the needs and fantasies of Thoros Gagarian, one of the world’s richest and most powerful men. That place is Mora Utu -- the Playground of the Gods -- a green jewel in the placid, blue expanse of the South Pacific, the most luxurious and seductive private preserve anywhere on the planet.
Only one challenge can rouse the appetites of Thoros’ five closest friends: men of wealth, accomplishment, and power. That challenge is to join Thoros in celebrating the completion of Mora Utu in a week of sex and sunshine. Each guest is required to bring a trophy woman beautiful enough to grace the island and the men’s beds.
But the women -- who have not been forewarned -- do not want to be pawns in a rich man’s game. And when one of them becomes the victim of sudden, rapacious male violence, they leave the men for the jungle and band together to teach them a lesson they’ll never forget.
Suddenly, six smart, tough, and resourceful women must call on skills they’ve always had -- for martial combat, for negotiation, for sabotage -- to use in ways they never dreamed. They’ll be guided in their crusade by a wise and ageless woman with a secret, ancient agenda of her own. And finally, they will be forced to consider uniting with the men who have become their adversaries, when, without warning, the jungle threatens to consume them all… when Mora Utu itself, like the brooding gods that silently preside over its domain, demands a blood sacrifice.
A novel of passion and revenge, THE PLAYGROUND OF THE GODS drops us into a shocking and very real war between the sexes -- one where nature has the last word and only the fittest will survive. Yet, at its heart, this is a story of how very much men and women, despite their different natures, need each other’s strengths and understanding in order to survive and thrive.
