This is book 2 to the Underworld Series. This can be read as a stand alone, but will make slightly more sense if you read "Summoning Bones", book 1, first. There will be spoilers for book 1.
Aderyn, a lost goddess with no memory of her past, wakes in the caring hands of Hades' daughter, Melinoe. She trains as her personal soldier for a selfish and cruel war of Hades' creation.
Melinoe sets Aderyn on a mission to make Death fall in love with her to distract him from his personal vendetta, to kill Hades himself.
When things go awry and Aderyn begins to fall for Death, her memories steadily resurface and her lust for blood grows as she discoverers who she was before her memory was wiped.
Aderyn is stuck between Death and ghosts of the past and the Goddess of those ghosts, Melinoe. She must decide to keep herself as shy and timid or lose herself to the violence she was born from.

Eirene nodded, and smiled at him, looking over his shoulder at the weapons rack several feet away. The guard leaned in to kiss her, and she let him. He immediately began to lick the seam of her lips, and peppering kisses around her lips. She could admit he knew what he was doing, but bile rose in her throat and she longed to push him away. Instead she pulled him closer, and wrapped a leg around his waist. He groaned and lifted her up, carrying her further away from his escape and weapons. She pushed away from him and smirked.

The title was appointed to me because I was the unlucky one. My job is just as important as my brother's jobs. I wasn't selected because of my cruel ways but now because of the way people speak of me and fear me now I am the cruel one whether or not I like it. Do you honesty think it is fair that it should work that way? People take one look at me and assume I'm the devil." Persephone crouches back in her seat. I realize I am standing and seat myself, trying to calm myself. "Do you honestly think that being in charge of the dead and judging them makes me undeserving of love, of a wife? I'm doomed to be exiled down here. I don't even have the sun to keep me warm, Persephone. You're all the sun I have..." *This story is also not meant to be factually accurate, and is simply an interpretation of the story.Complete
