Rise of Aphrodite
by Janice Pierce
Janice, a sheltered young woman, is being groomed to take her mother’s place in an ancient organization. She finds herself irresistibly drawn to Dani, the mother in a couple she babysits for, sparking a forbidden passion that unleashes something unexpected.
When Janice’s mother intervenes, their souls become bonded, triggering a series of events that propel Janice into a world of greed, conquest, love, and self-discovery. With the help of allies, she rises to claim her destiny within the Coven, uncovering her true identity...
The ancient Goddess Aphrodite.
Join their journey filled with love, mystery, betrayal, and intrigue, as Janice battles Zeus, Hera, and unimaginable forces while taking her place as the leader of The Coven.
Janice Pierce believes that every woman has a hidden power waiting to be awakened, and through her writing, she invites you to explore your own "Inner Aphrodite."
Janice Pierce is the visionary author behind Shadows of The Coven: The Rise of Aphrodite, a provocative journey where ancient mysticism meets the raw edge of modern desire. Known for her fearless exploration of suburban taboos and supernatural power plays, Janice’s work has captivated readers who crave stories where the female lead doesn’t just find herself—she finds her throne. In 2025, she was honored with a prestigious literary award from Underwood Miller Publishers, a nod to her unique ability to blend high-stakes paranormal world-building with intense, boundary-pushing intimacy. When she isn’t weaving tales of goddesses and covens, Janice can be found hunting for vintage occult grimoires in rain-soaked bookstores or exploring the misty trails of the Pacific Northwest, where the atmosphere is as thick with mystery as her novels. The ritual is only just beginning. Fans of Janice, Danica, and the Five Sisters won't have to wait long for the next chapter of the saga. Volume 2 of the Shadows of The Coven series is coming soon, promising more heat, more magic, and the ultimate test of the Goddess’s heart.
