Haden Lord, the disgraced prince of the Underrealm, has been sent to the mortal world to entice a girl into returning with him to the land of the dead. Posing as a student at Olympus Hills High—a haven for children of the rich and famous—Haden must single out the one girl rumored to be able to restore immortality to his race.
Daphne Raines has dreams much bigger than her tiny southern Utah town, so when her rock star dad suddenly reappears, offering her full tuition to Olympus Hills High’s prestigious music program, she sees an opportunity to catch the break she needs to make it as a singer. But upon moving into her estranged father’s mansion in California, and attending her glamorous new school, Daphne soon realizes she isn’t the only student in Olympus who doesn’t quite belong.
Haden and Daphne—destined for each other—know nothing of the true stakes their fated courtship entails. As war between the gods brews, the teenagers’ lives collide. But Daphne won’t be wooed easily and when it seems their prophesied link could happen, Haden realizes something he never intended—he’s fallen in love. Now to save themselves, Haden and Daphne must rewrite their destinies. But as their destinies change, so do the fates of both their worlds.
I'm a huge mythology geek, so this should be super fun. Plus I love the way this author played with traditional mythology in her first trilogy (The Dark Divine), so I can't wait to see how this one goes! Plus, okay, romance. Look for this one March 11!
I’m also excited for Into the Dark, I already have a galley of it and can’t wait to read it. I liked Bree Despain’s The Dark Divine series so I’m expecting a lot. Awesome pick. ;D

This novel looks good. I love retellings of the Hades and Persephone Myth.
ReplyDeleteThe summary of the book and the cover don't jive me really! I thought the cover would be a girl with a guitar or mic or something. LOL! I am interested in seeing your review on this one. Thanks
