Married life is a challenge, especially when you’re wedded to the Greek god of the Underworld, and in love with a mortal.
Persephone could never be saved from Hades, even by her three best friends, the kindhearted Apollo, snobby Artemis and indulgent Dionysus. They seem an odd menagerie to the amusingly devious classmates at their Los Angeles prep school, which is no surprise to them. They have been living among humans for years.
However, there is hope for Persephone’s freedom hidden among the conceitedly oblivious masses of tanned skin and bleach-blond hair. Rob Manthorne uncovers the gods' true identities, perhaps because he, too, is hiding a secret under a perfect exterior...

Persephone Incarnate [Wattpad Prize 2014] | ✔️
[COMPLETED - ONLY MINORLY EDITED] ******************************************************** Greek myths - true or false? They should be false, and to 16-year-old Sophie Claire, it's never crossed her mind that they aren't. Until one day in History class when her teacher spends a day on Greek mythology and something strange starts happening - her friends and classmates begin to tell myths about certain Greek deities with frightening precision. And for some reason, she's began to feel a certain affinity for Persephone, the Greek maiden who was kidnapped by Hades, the Lord of the Underworld, and forced into a marriage with him. This isn't some coincidence or freak dream, she later finds out from a host of strange individuals who claim they're from Olympus, the grandoise home of the gods themselves. She is actually a modern reincarnation of the goddess Persephone, and she's not the only one. A few of her classmates also happen to represent the gods and goddesses from popular Greek myths, and the fact that all of them are present means that something monumental is about to happen. Something like being the girl to change Persephone's future, to break the cycle of kidnapper and victim - all by passing a trial. It won't be simple, she knows, and she's not quite that eager to take it up, but from the moment she found out that she was Persephone, there was no way to back out. She should've known, however, that dealing with all powerful, immortal deities wasn't going to be easy. They've got a few secrets and personality flaws up their sleeves, and they could be deadly. More than deadly - murderous.Complete

Shadows of Laurel and Flame
In modern-day Southern California, gods walk among mortals disguised as CEOs, professors, crime lords, and celebrities-powerful, immortal, and manipulative. But not all gods are free. Persephone Karras, a literature professor in San Diego, is cursed by her mother Demeter, Zeus, and Hera to live endless mortal lifetimes without memory of who she truly is. Every life ends on her 30th birthday, unless Hades-Adrian Thanos, the feared mafia boss of Los Angeles-finds her in time and claims her through marriage and union, restoring her divinity and breaking the cycle. For Adrian, Persephone is his only light, the one good thing in his shadowed existence. For Persephone, he is both danger and salvation-an untouchable figure who appears in her dreams as a king of fire and night. But the curse is not the only obstacle. Other gods and goddesses shape this world and the immortal one: As Persephone's 30th birthday draws near, her dreams grow more vivid-visions of shadows, pomegranate seeds, and a crown forged of flame and laurel. Adrian must defy Zeus, outwit Hera, and even resist Demeter's wrath to save her. But fate is cruel: if Adrian fails, Persephone dies again, the curse resets, and her immortal essence slips further from reach. If he succeeds, their union will not only end the curse but bring forth a child-a being of shadow and bloom, mortal and divine-destined to change the balance of both worlds.
In a time where monsters raged and immortals reigned, two star-crossed lovers fight every obstacle to be together. Persephone and Hades find themselves buried in godly drama and anger and fighting across opposite worlds to finally be together. This is the story of how Kore, Goddess of Spring, came to be Persephone, Queen of Hell. There was no kidnapping, no forced eating, and no ignorance... just a smart girl, a handsome god, and a desire to be free.. * Completed Story Undergoing Major Editing*
