The Taking of Persephone Series

Discover the BookTok sensation 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.

Stuck with the God of War while aiding her mother in the mending of Greece, Kore thought lessons of drawing life was all she had to worry about. But when she and Ares witness a mortal battle on a near by beach, a power is unleashed and it's more than she could ever control. Threatened with exposure of her true nature, Kore suppresses that piece of herself. An act that she soon learns is more deadly than her out of control vines.

"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.
