Persephone thought she knew who she was — a mortal woman trying to survive grief, betrayal, and the hollow places left by love. But when her hidden power erupts and the Underworld answers, she is thrust into a realm where memory breathes, souls thrive, and the dead are anything but gone.

Hades is a god carved of shadow and duty, ruling a kingdom built not on torment, but on devotion and remembrance. He never expected her — a force of spring and rot, bloom and ruin — and he swore he would never fall again.

But fate has already chosen its players.

As ancient magic stirs and Olympus begins to fracture, Persephone must decide whether to run from her destiny... or claim the throne that has waited for her all along. Power is awakening. Love is dangerous. And some gods will burn the world before they let her rise.
