You can't blame me for wanting it all. Godhood. The woman I loved. A family. It all seemed so simple. After all, I am the god of lies, tricks, and mischief. I am a master of illusions and my own fate, or at least I believed myself to be. My rules are simple. Lie to everyone, save yourself. But this time was different. This time I was what some call, in love. I call it madness. This is the start of my undoing. The beginning of the end, and I have no regrets. There is more to my story and I intend to tell it all.\nAn inviting trickster. 
A powerful witch. 
A forbidden affair.\nIn every myth there is a truth, and in every truth, there is an illusion. 
What if the myths were wrong and Thor’s hammer wasn’t stolen? 
What if we all had the power to shape our destiny? 
What if the real story lies untold? 
What if conflict is the only thing that can truly shape who we become?\nA long time ago in the land of giants, there was an unusual family desperate to remain a secret from the gods of Asgard. 
It was all going as planned until the Norse trickster Loki makes a risky deal with a Jotun that sets off a cascade of scandals that only he can fix. Follow Loki in this decadent retelling full of magic, love, myth, humor, and betrayal as he faces the new challenges of fatherhood and is forced to choose between his family or his own selfish pursuits.\n"An amazing and quick read, I truly could not pull myself away from Father of Monsters! Not only a beautiful love story about Loki, Angrboda, and their unique children but a witty and comical adventure as well. The story was an excellent retelling of stories from the Poetic Edda from Loki's perspective, shining a light on what occurred behind the scenes in the god of mischief's personal life. A.B. Frost illuminated Loki's personality through her narration by the trickster himself, giving him more dimension than more traditional texts regarding Loki in Norse myth. It is evident that the author is well-versed in Norse mythology through the accuracy of the storyline to source texts. Furthermore, I found the narration to be a perfect portrayal of how I envision Loki's personality! Truly a touching, insightful, and all-around excellent read!" —Goodreads ARC Review\n"A wonderful, fictionalized adaptation of Loki's Saga, written from the point of view of the Trickster God himself. Beautifully written with just the right about of sexiness. Lots of fun and adventure!" — Goodreads ARC Review

The Story of a Bad Boy (1870) is a semi-autobiographical novel by American writer Thomas Bailey Aldrich, fictionalizing his experiences as a boy in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. The book is considered the first in the "bad boy" genre of literature, though the text's opening lines admit that he was "not such a very bad, but a pretty bad boy." Plot summary"Tom Bailey" is born in the fictitious town of Rivermouth, New Hampshire, but moves to New Orleans with his family when he is 18 months old. In his boyhood, his father wants his to be educated in the North and sent him back to Rivermouth to live with his grandfather, Captain Nutter. Nutter lives with his sister and an Irish servant. There, Tom becomes a member of a boys' club called the Centipedes. Together, the boys become involved in a series of adventures. In one prank, the boys steal an old carriage and push it into a bonfire for the Fourth of July. During the winter, several boys build a snow fort on Slatter's Hill, inciting rival boys into a battle of snowballs. Later, Tom and three other boys combine their money to buy a boat named Dolphin and sneak away to an island. Tom also befriends a man nicknamed Sailor Ben, whom Tom originally meets on the ship that took him away from New Orleans. Revealed as the long-lost husband of Captain Nutter's Irish servant, Ben settles in Rivermouth in a boat-like cabin. Sailor Ben helps the boys fire off a series of old cannon at the pier, much to the confusion of the local townspeople. When his father's banking job fails, Tom is invited by an uncle to work in a counting-house in New York. Thomas Bailey Aldrich ( November 11, 1836
