When her roommate, Artemis, takes her to a party, her entire life changes: she ends up meeting Hades and feels an immediate spark with the charming yet misunderstood ruler of the Underworld. Now Persephone must navigate the confusing politics and relationships that rule Olympus, while also figuring out her own place -- and her own power." - synopsis from the hardcover edition of Lore Olympus: Volume One by Rachel Smythe
