Ashley isn't your typical highschooler. Descended from the Greek gods Demeter and Poseidon, she isn't even fully human. But that's all in the past: she left her home on Olympus years ago, running from her family's painful history and renown.
Until a giant shatters her new life by blowing up her high school.
Now, Ashley is thrust back into godhood and her old life as she attempts to keep herself and her human friends safe from the enemies of Olympus. She also finds herself falling for Apollo, the kind and charming Sun god she can't seem to stop running into. And with the giants' Crimson Sect growing bolder by the day, it doesn't look like she'll be able to leave Olympus anytime soon...

The Sky Bearer's Mortal
Zeus, the all-powerful King of the Gods, is given a chilling prophecy: his reign will end unless he can successfully bind himself to the "spirit of the new mortal age." He identifies this spirit in Thiana Kallas, a brilliant, idealistic Public Health PhD student whose academic focus is, ironically, Greek mythology. To pursue her, Zeus does the unthinkable: he divorces Hera. Now masquerading as "Zeus Olympos," a wise but playful (and deeply untrusting) billionaire funding her university, he must win her over. But he faces three problems: Thiana is an expert on all his past sins and thinks his "god complex" is insufferable. His own son, Apollo, is genuinely falling for Thiana's idealistic charm. His jilted wife, Hera, is waging a secret war to destroy Thiana's life.
The Last Ballad of Olympus
Long gone was the age of the gods... Long gone are those tales that lived through time and defied fate itself... Olympus has fallen, and the pantheon crumbled, like a temple with no pillars or a home that no longer served its purpose. The last ballad has been sung, and glory withered like a dying flower on the incoming winter. Fire, ash, and blood reigned supreme when the secret was revealed. The vulture and the owl-two opposites, the different sides of the same coin, rivals who defied the common status quo of "once an enemy, will always be enemies." But what if love all of a sudden came at them? Piercing through their souls that even the goddess of love's prowess could never fathom such a circumstance. The war and wisdom-the deities who were deemed too similar yet too different at the same time. What if those stories about them were nothing more than figments of a mortal's imagination? What if the character was no more-the loathing gone, and what remained was an unexpected understanding towards each other? Ares and Athena-what if something sparked between them and defied the order of Olympus?
