About this ebook

Prequel to the Furies Series.

Cora is the immortal Greek goddess Persephone, living in a Malibu beach house in the twenty-first century. No matter how much therapy she undergoes, nothing eases the pain of her husband’s recent murder.

Until Gabriel Cartwright walks into her life.

Gabe is a prim and proper East Coast realtor, hired to manage her move to Toronto. He’s sweet, kind, and seemingly human. But beneath the surface, he belongs to a dwindling race of nymphs hunted for centuries by the ancient Olympian gods and goddesses—a race Cora has sworn to protect at any cost.

She didn’t choose him by accident; she chose him because she knew what was coming.

As the slow-burning spark between them ignites, Olympus takes notice—and they’re determined to kill Gabe to punish Cora and reclaim the power she’s fought so hard to keep.

Now, Cora must guard Gabe with her life—or risk tearing the heavens apart trying.


Content warning: CORA features a goddess who enjoys bad language, romance, and sexual situations. Although Cora is the same goddess as Persephone four thousand years earlier in A.L. Hawke's Cora: Rise of the Fallen Goddess, this contemporary urban fantasy is suited for an adult audience.

Enjoyable read! I appreciate the author’s attention to detail and ability to make me care not only about the main character but also about the other details in the story.

4 1/2 stars - I chose this book to read and review because I have a fondness for "any" romance books related to Hades and Persephone. This story is more about Persephone alias Ms. Cora Aregard. Persephone is in a mental depressed mess after the death of her husband Danny. She's moving out of their house in California and starting over in Torondo. Mr. Gabriel Cartwright who works for Platinum Properties is helping her transition to a new house. Persephone hired Gabe because he is a rare male Napean nymph. Meanwhile Imada, a secret society of gods and goddesses is hunting and killing all the Napean nymphs. Persephone is determined to protect and care for Gabe. Will she succeed with the help of Hades? This story was enjoyable to read. Cora the main character had a lot of mental problems affecting her behavior which made her a harder character to understand. Hence the 1/2 star off. The bottom line in this story is everyone is looking for someone to love them, even Gods.

Loved the book! This book truly has it all! Cora is spontaneous, a bit crazy and truly knows how to have a good time. The excitement just keeps coming. This is definitely one of those “can’t put it down” books. A must read.
