I am happy to announce that The Taking of Persephone Series is under contract with 8th Note Press Publishing.
The Taking of Persephone Series
Kore
A lush romantasy retelling of the myth of Persephone and Hades as the original grumpy/sunshine pairing, perfect for fans of Lore Olympus.
Before the Goddess of the Underworld, before the Dread Queen, there was Kore.
​
Kore, the youngest daughter of Demeter, is caught between two worlds. Her mother teaches duty and secrecy, hiding her powers away from the other gods. But as Kore grows into her power, she finds solace and freedom in visits from the feared and hated King of the Dead, her Aidoneus. When the struggles of Olympus threaten the tenuous balance of her world, Kore flees to the Underworld in search of sanctuary.
​
When her journey turns into a fight for survival facing monstrous shades and vengeful gods, Kore also discovers that the underworld is full of wonderous possibility. Can she break through the dark and reach the heart of its King?
​
He claims there is no place for love among the dead.
She is determined to prove him wrong.

Hades
The Taking of Persephone series continues in Hades, the epic love story of the king and queen of the underworld.​
“Careful what you say, Goddess,” he breathed, “I may not let you leave.”
A wicked smile spread her lips once more, “Perhaps it is you who should be careful, my king.”
​
Heavy is the head who wears the crown of the underworld. The gods of Olympus deride him even as they fear him, leaving him to rule the colorless dark in the lands of the dead. But when Thanatos disappears and Elysium begins to crumble, Hades is must leave his realm for the land of mortals to retrieve the soul of Icarus.
​​
He thinks there is nothing for him in the living world until, in a field of wildflowers, he stumbles upon a goddess who knows no fear. Her delicate grace conceals an unwavering spirit, one that may someday outgrow the lies of the gods.
​​
As their paths further intertwine, he finds the Goddess of Spring has far more to offer than dainty petals, and that her thirst for vengeance is just as insatiable as his.
​​
With more gods, shades, magic and romance, Hades delves deeper into the unforgettable love story begun in Kore from Hades' point of view.

The Taking of Persephone Series
Demeter
The Taking of Persephone series continues in Demeter, with even more romance and myth from the point of view of the goddess of the harvest.​
Demeter's life is a delicate balance, tending to her crops while raising her spirited and curious child Kore. She yearns for Kore to tread the path she has carefully laid, but fate and Kore herself have different plans, and mother and daughter soon find themselves at the cruel mercy of Zeus.​
Just as Demeter is poised to reveal a life-shattering secret to Kore, she awakens to find that her beloved daughter has vanished.​
Gripped by sorrow and anguish, Demeter embarks on her own quest to find Kore. For so long, the goddess of the harvest has kept to her tasks in the mortal world, kept her divine head down, and sheltered her daughter from the storms of Olympus. Can she face the past, disrupt her meticulously crafted existence, and venture into the chaos that threatens to consume the world?​
Myth made her into a villain, but Demeter has her own story to tell.

The Goddess of Love knows alot more than it would seem, but it has not been by choice of her own. A pawn in a game she had been forced to play. A discarded love she had no intentions of fostering.
Aphrodite may be the Goddess of Love, but yet, it is something so far out of her reach, she has learned to flow with the wind rather than fight the tide. Forced to do the bidding of Hera and Hephaestus, Aphrodite is determined to uncover their truth while being tossed into the storm that was created on Mount Olympus and the mortal world the moment Kore went missing.
