Courtney Summers' life was perfect. She's the Head cheerleader, dating the varsity quarterback, Brandon, and is easily voted the prettiest girl in West Hills High. But that all changes when she meets Connor, a handsome, mysterious teen, who is new in school. Fateful events happen to Courtney, bringing her closer to Connor, Hailey, Brandon, and even Derek, the school's outsider. All while bringing the group of unlucky teens face-to-face with none other than the Greek gods themselves. The group of five embark on a hopeless guest to save Hermes, trapped in the underworld. Friendships are tested, romance is started, and powers are reviled, all while occasionally killing a monster or two in Trusting the Gods.
