Scarlett Rose has had the same recurring, horrific nightmare for the last seven years. In these dreams she is literally pulled into Hell itself and bedded by a god, Hades. She remains one night in her time, but months in his. On the night of her 30th birthday she returns to her bed, but soon discovers that she is pregnant. She is floored when she finds out that all of those steamy but hated dreams were, in fact, reality. Fate has decided to send her on a journey and she has to beat the ticking of a clock that only she can hear. Hades' reasoning for calling his bearer to him is not only to have her bare his spawn, but he secretly desires a companion, his Rouge. He holds the secret of his cravings for this one woman close and must not let his true feelings show or all hell will erupt into chaos. Once he knows that she is carrying his child, he will stop at nothing to have her and her heart at his side for all eternity. The clock is ticking and they both have crucial decisions to make.
