The last thing Grover wants to be is a hero, but he'll have to be one if he wants to gain his inheritance back.

Due to an old law, Grover must impregnate his wife in the next few weeks to gain the family fortune. Which would normally not be a problem for a virile guy like himself, but suddenly things aren't working as they should in the bedroom. Or out of the bedroom. Or in his pants, for that matter.

If he doesn't produce an heir, it will all go to his younger brother, Ragnar, leaving Grover penniless and impotent forever.

When he travels to a small town to find a sure-thing cure for his ... uhm ... "problem area", he is mistaken for a traveling hero by a local proprietor and coerced into fighting a vicious, axe-wielding, pony-tailed, kitten-killing villain. And he wins.

Now everyone wants a piece of him, from agents who want to promote him as the next "big thing" hero to villains who want to kill him to avenge their fallen brother-in-evil.

And that's not counting Cilla, a clumsy, knife-wielding woman from a long-standing hero family, who is going to be his sidekick whether he likes it or not.

What's a regular rich guy to do who just wants to get his mojo working?

Revised and updated second edition. Now 20% funnier.
