SERENA RHODES
PRE-ORDER NOW
THE GODS DON'T PLAY FAIR.
Persephone has spent twenty-seven years on the edges of Olympus—half-mortal, half-divine, and wholly overlooked. When Zeus blackmails her into the Underworld, she has six months to decide if she wants to marry his brother or risk losing everything she’s ever known.The god she is sent to wants her there even less. The eldest of three brothers who carved the Kosmos between them, Hades has spent eternity ignored by the rest of Olympus. He rules the dead with more dignity than the other gods ever afforded the living, and he has no interest in a reluctant wife forced on him by another’s decree.But the longer Persephone stays, the harder it becomes to leave. And when the Trojan War takes a turn, she learns more about the gods pulling strings above them—the control they’re hoarding, the Fate they’re trying to rewrite, and the enemy wearing a familiar face.
In a world where the gods love to play, love might be the most dangerous game of all.
