Persephone has spent her life trapped in the golden cage of her mother's love, yearning for freedom but never daring to escape. Her every move controlled, her every decision influenced, she has longed for a life beyond the suffocating walls of her mother's protection.

That is, until a spider bite binds her to the dark and seductive realm of Hades, forcing the Underworld's ruthless king to grant her a freedom she has always asked for. With no choice but to obey the ancient curse, Hades finds himself tangled in a fate far more complicated than he anticipated.

As danger looms and her siblings are murdered, Persephone discovers that the real battle lies not only in the world outside, but also within herself. The Underworld is a realm of shadows and secrets-and in its depths, Persephone must confront the rising peril that threatens to destroy her family.

Yet, it's the forbidden attraction between Persephone and Hades that will truly test everything they know. A sexual tension powerful, so uncontrollable, it could unravel the very fabric of both life and death. Their connection is a deadly game-one that could cost them both everything.

Torn between the love she's always craved and the duty that binds her, Persephone must face an impossible choice: embrace the darkness that calls to her soul, or return to the light of her mother's suffocating love.

One decision will save, and the other will destroy everything she holds dear.

"He calls himself the king of the dead, but it's you who brought him to his knees."
