Two lovers lives are set off course when they are torn apart. One in hades while the other is left in the world of the living. Distraught that her love has been taken she leaps into Avernus to retrieve her. Facing trials and the rude awakening of what it means to be mortal will she get her lover back?
Basically Orpheus and Eurydice but different (and gay). 
  inspo for work-Orpheus and Eurydice, The divine comedy (specifically inferno), 12 labours of Heracles  
  btw Avernus is referring to the way it is used as a synonym for the entrance to the underworld or just the underworld not the lake for pagan rituals.
  Also the cover is my fav statue of Athena

A goddess is taken to the underworld as the king's bride; her father knew everything and her mother knew nothing. In this retelling of the Hymn of Demeter, mother and daughter will do whatever it takes to free themselves, no matter the cost. Book I of The Triple Moons' Chronicles * Up in the sky, in a world between myths and lies, lives a daughter caged on an island. She is Persephone. The beautiful Persephone, whom every Olympian god wants to marry-they all want her beauty to conceal their ugliest secrets, but only Hades manages to take her to his realm. He dwells below the earth, across the river Styx, between Tartarus and the Isle of Blest. No mortals can see his forbidden land until they pass away. Forced into marriage by her father Zeus, Persephone would resign from her fate. But when her grieving mother, Demeter, comes close to killing all the mortals, Zeus orders her back to her homeland. Given and returned against her will, Persephone takes charge of her life and eats six pomegranate seeds before leaving. Food from the underworld can't be eaten as it will tie one to the land. As her decision pushes her closer together and apart from her loved ones, Persephone's destiny turns worse. Only she may have the power to change her world for the better. *** CW: While written in a lyrical style, this story is advised for mature audiences only.
