Awakening: Standard Edition (Champions (SE) Book 1) by Kenny Michaels

Swords, Sorcery, and…Small-Arms? An American soldier is chosen to defend another realm. Lieutenant David Kennisham was patrolling the mountains of Afghanistan, trying to complete his mission and live long enough to return to the United States, until fate intervened. Now he is a stranger in a strange land, and he is forced to rely on two women that he would have much rather avoided. One is the favored acolyte of the God of Love, and also a raging narcissist. The other is a breathtakingly beautiful, part-dragon, sorceress with anger issues. Hoping to return home, he grudgingly allows the pair to lead him to Eros, God of Love and patron deity of this new realm. Unfortunately, the path to get there is far more exciting, and dangerous, than a society based on ‘love’ should be. In a world of swords and sorcery, will his training and US Army issued weaponry help level the battlefield? Champions Volume Awakening is the first book in the Champions Saga by Kenny Michaels. A veteran of the United States Army and Operation Enduring Freedom, Michaels brings an insider’s perspective on combat, and the true cost of victory.
