Alexia Vanderbilt, no, that's not her real name, she changed it. She was tired of the sympathetic looks she kept receiving from everyone at Meridian College. Yes, she was brutally raped by her own father years ago and he killed her mother while he was drunk driving but that wasn't the only reason she decided to change her name and transfer to Hillview University. Her best friend, Bella King, was there, and that was a good enough reason. Bella went through her own experience that caused Alexia and her to grow closer together. Her mother is an alcoholic and her father is a drug addict. They practically raised one another. It's no wonder Alexia can't wait to join Bella at HU, she is soon to regret this decision when she meets Andrew Scott. No matter what Alexia does to let go of her traumatic past, it always seems to creep up on her, preventing her to think normal thoughts and run away from the feelings she is having about Andrew. Maybe she's just too damaged for love? Andrew Scott comes from a wealthy family of parents who own a chain of celebrity-visited hotels. He also plays sports and is the star jock; like a typical and cliche jock, he is a ladies' man who is known to be with every girl for the night, only to throw her away at the curb after. When he sets his eyes on Alexia, he's feeling feelings that he has never felt before in a girl. He doesn't know it but he's playing with her heart and her mind. Apart from dealing with boys and her thoughts, Alexia and Bella meet a hooded figure who tells them their parents were a type of demons, Reapers, who made a deal with the devil to turn their family human. The devil agreed, if they continued to do their work as Reapers. When Alexia's mom starts having human feelings and doesn't do her Reaper duties, the hooded figure comes after Alexia to drag her back to hell to replace her dead mother. After all, the universe needs to remain in balance.

*to be edited: please excuse any continuity errors and / or mistakes in regards the writing quality of Hades* Ellie is just like every other normal eighteen year old girl in the world, except for one big reason. She's the daughter of Hades. And an immortal goddess in charge of managing suicide in the world. And she's been locked in the darkness of the Underworld for her entire life. So basically, her life couldn't get any more abnormal if she tried. Ellie longs to experience life like everybody else her age, but for as long as she can remember her parents haven't let her travel up to the surface, and she's been forced to imagine the upper world through the stories her mother told and the books she read. Until, one day, her parents finally give in and let her go up to the surface to see the world through her own eyes, and her world explodes with colour. Then, just when she thinks her life couldn't get more exciting, she stumbles across a very particular green-eyed god; one who throws her perfectly organised world into complete chaos and shows her what it means to live in the light. But what Ellie doesn't know, is that the Fates have a prophecy for her. A prophecy that she couldn't escape if she tried. A prophecy that has tangled it's gnarled fingers into the threads of her life, and may just throw the world into the darkness Ellie has spent her whole life trying to escape. "He's the son of Aphrodite, she's the daughter of Hades. He's light, she's the oncoming darkness. He advocates for love, she's the embodiment of death. What could possibly go wrong?" (Third book in the "Hades" series)
