In a world where Gods rule and Daemons are feared, Hades, is released from his prison in Tartarus by the Olympian Zeus to aid in the war against the Titians and then meets Persephone, daughter of Demeter, and he may just lose his heart.
Past shrouded in darkness, Persephone, daughter of the earth goddess Demeter, heals from the ordeal that stole her memories and the magic that is an integral part of who she once was. When she meets a stranger in the woods, her life is forever changed. But does she have the courage to stand against the will of the other gods and claim the only man she has ever loved when any moment could bring back her memories and change her feelings for him? Does she have the strength to keep what is hers when an ancient enemy returns to destroy all she has worked for?
Betrayed by the Gods he once served, battle-weary Hades promised to never allow another god power over him, but he didn't plan on the intervention of the Fates intertwining his future with the stunning woman dancing in the moonlight, or the rise of his Phlegethon nature that demands he claim her as his own. Persephone has become the siren calling him, promising the completion of heart and soul, but only a fool accepts the gifts of a siren, or fight against the will of the Fates.
Excerpt
“I thought you weren’t coming back.”
Hades jerked awake. His body reacted before he could fully assess the threat or stop himself. Grabbing the hand reaching out to him, he yanked her off balance. She pitched forward into his lap and he caught her against his chest.
She didn’t move from her place in his lap for several long seconds, but when she did, she looked at him, her indigo eyes wide, but without the terror he was use to or any sign of apprehension at the violence of his action or awkwardness from her position in his lap. She wasn’t afraid, she was actually smiling, mirth dancing in her eyes.
“Note to self, don’t wake the sleeping warrior.”
