In a world where gods and monsters walk hidden among us, falling for the wrong guy might do more than break her heart-it might awaken a war.
College freshman Alysander Smith has never fit in her small beach town of glossy smiles and airbrushed perfection. All she wants is to escape and prove she's more than just the punchline everyone laughs at. The only bright spot? Hayden Vassilios, her gorgeous childhood best friend turned campus football god-and the guy she's been secretly in love with for years. But when she uncovers a dark family secret about her long-lost, deadbeat father, everything changes.
Alysander starts to wonder if her mother's crazed whispers about ancient mythological bloodlines and a secret Underworld might be less delusion and more danger. Something old and powerful is awakening, and Hayden is at the center of it all. When the truth shatters everything she thought she knew, Alysander will have to choose: walk away-or step into the shadows and fight for a love that was never hers to keep.
The Summer I Turned Pretty meets A Court of Thorns and Roses in this romantic fantasy retelling of Hades and Persephone. This is a slow-burn, best-friends-to-lovers romance filled with dark yearning, ancient mythic secrets, and a supernatural reveal that changes everything.
