Hades was never meant to be happy.
Condemned to rule the Underworld alone, he makes a dangerous bargain with the Fates-one that will change Olympus forever.
Persephone was never meant to be caged.
Smothered by Demeter's fear and the suffocating politics of Mount Olympus, she longs for adventure, autonomy... and something more.
When the two meet, the spark between them is undeniable.
But freedom comes at a cost.
To protect her mother's heart-and her own independence-Persephone proposes a lie that will echo across eternity:
An abduction.
As winter descends upon the earth and gods take sides, a conspiracy spirals beyond their control. Demeter's grief turns the world barren. Olympus fractures. And the first seeds of rebellion are planted in the shadows.
Because this was never just a love story.
It was the beginning of a war among gods.
Persephone can be read before or after The Underworld Saga.
*Formerly The Gatekeeper's Bride
PG 13: Contains violence, mild language, and no sex.
Praise for Persephone:
I love how Eva created the love story of Hades and Persephone. It's both beautiful and tragic in many ways.--Book Lover Reviews ★★★★★
This is such a beautifully and originally retold version of the legend of Persephone and Hades while still feeling true to the mythology. This is an emotional roller-coaster of a book; my heart just breaks for Persephone but I'm not going to say why... you'll just need to read it.--Tamara, Amazon Reviewer ★★★★★
Such fun heart warming stories. You really, really want things to work out for the them but well, life and death wait for no one.--Kathy Goodwin, Amazon Reviewer ★★★★★
Well written and fast paced! Really enjoyed it! Looking forward to reading the next ones!--k.giegkorov, Amazon Reviewer ★★★★★
