Athena Elena Hermes has a unique name as you can probably tell. Its like she is straight out from all those Greek mythology books with all those gods and goddesses. No doubt she stands up to her name Athena. She never dreamt and believe that one day she will have her own prince charming with dazzling good looks or a superhero with an out of the world powers.
Prince's are too mainstream, superheroes are too but come on superheroes are much better and cooler. But no matter how dazzling a prince is or strong a superhero is if the damsel in distress is as stubborn as Hades wanting to destroy all of Zeus creation in her belief on love and life.
What would happen if something life changing occurs in Athena's life shaking her belief and leading her to finding herself. Her voice.Her calling. Will she come out a victor? or a mess.

Callie is surprised to find that her new kingdom isn't what she imagined, and neither are those who call it home.

Someone is after Hades' throne, and they want to open Tartarus once and for all. Callie and her new husband must travel between the Underworld, Earth, and Olympus to gain help from some larger-than-life gods and fix everything before it's too late.

DIVINE - A Persephone And Hades Retelling
"I've told you, Hades, I can not become your mistress." she sadly told him. She had always lived in her mother's shadow, and if she followed Hades, she would once again be living in another's shadow. Even though she loved him, she did not think she could stomach it. "I do not want you to be my mistress, Persephone, I want you to be my queen," he confessed to her. She snapped her head up to meet his eyes, searching for any sign he wanted to take his words back, but there was no remorse. And just like that, she fell ever so slightly more in love with him. "Your queen?" she asked, she had to be sure. Strangely the word had slid off her tongue gracefully as if it had belonged there. "Yes, become my queen," he told her once again, taking back the step she had taken. "Rule besides me as the goddess of spring and the Underworld." The words don't seem to make sense in her mind. --- Further description in the book --- #1 - MYTH RETELLING (as of October 1st, 2021) #1 - GODDESS OF SPRING (as of Nov 23rd, 2021) #1 - HADES TOWN (as of Jan 13th, 2022) #1 - HADES AND PERSEPHONE (as of Feb 9th, 2022) #1 - GREEK MYTHOLOGY (as of March 29th, 2022) #1 - QUEEN OF THE UNDERWORLD (as of April 4th, 2022) #1 - PERSEPHONE AND HADES (as of April 20th, 2022) #1 - GOD OF THE UNDERWORLD (as of April 20th, 2022) #1 - KING OF THE UNDERWORLD (as of Dec 22, 2022) #2 - HECATE (as of Nov 4th, 2021) #2 - DEMETER (as of Jan 29th, 2022) #2 - KING AND QUEEN (as of Feb 21st, 2022) #2 - PERSEPHONE (as of Sep 20th, 2023) #3 - GREEK MYTH (as of May 6th, 2022) #4 - MYTH (as of April 21th, 2022) #4 - RETELLING (as of May 10th, 2022) #4 - UNDERWORLD (as of 26th, 2023) #6 - HADES (as of April 8th, 2022) #6 - DIVINE (as of May 6th, 2022) #41 - OLYMPIANS (as of Feb 9th, 2021) #55 - GREEK (as of May 8th, 2022) #61 - OLYMPUS (as of May 8th, 2022)Complete

Queen Of Hell & Paradise (Immortal gods: Book 1)
She has the makings and potential of a queen-- one worthy enough to be crowned monarch of the third and darkest realm... At first glance, a gloomy greek god and a high school cheerleader have nothing in common. One is only eighteen and the other is centuries old. One is immortal, the other is human. One thrives in the spotlight, the other prefers the comfort of their isolation. One prefers being the center of attention, and the other likes to admire from afar. They're as different as night and day. And yet, despite their differences, there is one thing that unites them both. Fate. Cover by meComplete

Better keep your head down-down Da-da-down-down Da-da-down-down They're gonna tell you what you wanna hear Then they're gonna disappear. Gonna claim you like a souvenir Just to sell you in a year You better keep your head down-down Da-da-down-down Da-da-down-down." The gods have chosen. Fourteen of the most influential deities electing champions to carry out their bidding, and potentially save the world. Only problem; not one champion appears to have a single clue what to do. Of course, you have Cassidy, a firey Alabama girl with legs for days and status problems. Then we have Nari, a troubled young lady who has spent the last month in an Illinois-rooted psychiatric facility. Or perhaps the saving grace of the group would be Cali, a young Chicano known for his charming looks and lack of manners. Perhaps the hope for humanity lies in the hands of Myrtle, a God-fearing Christian with a loud anxiety response and deep worry stemming from every sentence spoken to her. Only time will tell which heroes rise to the occasion, and which ones plummet, bringing everyone else down with them. Oh, and did I mention the time travel?
