Hades and Persephone - Crown of Souls (Gods of Myth #3)

Hades

The mistakes we make can last a lifetime. In my case, that’s been centuries. Millenia.
I vowed I’d never again steal her away to the Underworld. I broke that vow.
She’s here now, in my realm, my house, my bed.
She’s here—and she doesn’t hate me.
But there’s more at stake than her affection, even though there is nothing I crave more.
As the past is revealed, sinister intentions come to light, and the war we stand on the cusp of is no longer something we can avoid.
Demeter has allied with Zeus, with Olympus.
She has a plan, and it could destroy us all.

Persephone
There’s more to Hades than he lets me see.
The pieces of my puzzle are falling slowly into place, but with every click, the picture is clearer.
He is cloaked in regret and I’m not sure that even my forgiveness can absolve him his sins.
I am not dead, and yet I’ve found myself in the Underworld.
Everything I thought I knew about the world crumbles around me as a truth I can no longer deny takes its place with a violence that leaves me trembling.
There is a war brewing, and the players possess a power that could wipe out all of humanity.
To save the souls both living and dead, I must make a bargain.
But when you pay with your soul—does winning ever cover the loss?
