Once a generation, Persephone, the goddess of Spring and Destruction, is reincarnated as a clueless mortal girl. Over and over since she was killed so long ago and cured by her jealous mother, Demeter. Like how dare she go and fall in love with Hades, the King of the Underworld.
It was a bad deal all around for everybody, honestly.
Hades is now doomed to wander the earth forever, waiting for his soul mate to reincarnate so he can offer her the chance to fall in love with him and ascend as the lost goddess she was meant to be all along.
There’s a rub, though. In over two thousand years, hundreds of incarnations who were given this choice, not once has she agreed. Instead, she chooses to live out her days with her mother as penance for that long-ago betrayal.
That’s right, not once.
Frustrated and heartbroken, Hades vows that this time will be the last time they go through this old song and dance. When he finds her in Detroit, he’s shocked she’s only seventeen. Worse, this Persephone has a completely different personality than any he’s encountered before, throwing Hades not only off his game but also changing the rules in unseen ways.
Can Hades convince this cold, distant girl that he’s worth her time?
You’ll have to read this modern retelling of the ancient myth to find out.
