One disastrous cake. An army in the Underworld. A boy who happens to be a god.
Kate Nicholls has enough to worry about: senior year, her best friend, and a school fundraiser cake she and Shana have improvised into a chocolate catastrophe. But when everyone who eats it collapses, Kate is convinced she's killed them.
Then Jason Fulmen, the gorgeous, maddeningly shy boy she's secretly wanted for years, tells her something impossible.
They aren't dead. They've been taken to the Underworld.
And Hades and Persephone are building an army.
Kate's desperate attempt to save her friends pulls her into a world where Greek gods are real, family secrets are anything but ordinary, and her own mysterious powers may be far greater than she understands. Surviving the Underworld should be enough to last a lifetime. Unfortunately, Kate's life is only getting started.
Dating a god brings problems of its own. Jealous magic leaves Kate with snakes for hair and Jason out of reach. Then an entire town disappears, time begins to unravel, and a cursed immortal's rock-star ambitions conceal a far more dangerous scheme.
Who is really pulling the strings? Why do the gods keep finding their way into Kate's life? And when each catastrophe reveals another impossible secret, how can she tell whether she's the one who can save everyone-or the reason disaster keeps striking?
Five connected stories of Greek mythology, supernatural chaos, dangerous curses, tangled loyalties, and first love.
Because when the gods are part of your world, an ordinary day is never just an ordinary day.
