Books like Acheron by Sherrilyn Kenyon
Acheron was born a god eleven thousand years ago, but a curse bound him to a mortal frame and one lifetime of hatred. His eventual death unleashed a horror that nearly destroyed Earth, and he was resurrected to protect humanity.
For millennia he has waged silent, unseen battles, guarding mankind while keeping a painful past concealed. Yet everything changes when a woman who could be his undoing becomes crucial to survival. Long-dormant enemies reawaken, unite, and aim to kill them both, forcing Acheron to confront his deepest revelations and an escalating war that is death‑trapping yet strangely exhilarating.
