5 out of 5 Stars
Persephone
Daughters of Zeus #1
Kaitlin Bevis
16 Year old Persephone is living an ordinary human life with her best friend. She goes to school, deals with the local divas and hopefully catches the eyes of a cute boy.
But this is all about to change. Persephone is the daughter of Zeus and Demeter. She is a Greek goddess and her normal world is about to be eradicated forever. She is hunted by another god intent to steel her powers, when she runs into him another god jumps in to save her, but the only way to do this is to bind himself forever to her as his husband. This god is Hades, the lord of the underworld.
Persephone is about to take a crash course in being a goddess, but even more, being the wife of the great Hades.
Absolutely freaking fabulous! I love Greek mythology so this story was right up my alley. I loved watching Persephone go from quirky teenager to the queen of the underworld. She is brave and determined. But her love for her family and friends punches her to do the extreme, fight back even if she is still a mortal.
Kaitlin’s take on Hades was amazing. We see the side of him that is deemed fiction in mythology. Don’t get me wrong he doesn’t take any crap from anyone, but as the plot progress we start to see the caring side of him. I loved that Kaitlin didn’t make him the evil god as we always get to see with Hades, instead she shows us the god that take cares of all the souls that pass to the underworld.
Kaitlin made sure that the plot is captivating, nerve wrecking and just plain amazing. I was captured from page one and read this one in one sitting grabbing the second edition with eager anticipation. Well-deserved 5 stars and a must in any to be read list.

Some vows can never be broken.
Persephone thought she could go back to her normal life after returning from the Underworld. She was wrong.
The goddess Aphrodite is born among the waves with more charm than she can control. Zeus is stalking Persephone and her loved ones, and Thanatos is no longer content with Persephone's silence.

Persephone can't tell anyone about Thanatos' betrayal, and it drives a wedge between her and Hades. Her mother is still keeping secrets, and Melissa's jealousy of Aphrodite threatens to tear their friendship apart.
Alone, Persephone turns to a human boy for comfort. But will their relationship put him in danger?
Sacrifices must be made, and Persephone must choose between her human life and her responsibilities as a goddess. If she doesn't, she could lose them both.
But will either life be worth choosing once Zeus is through with her?

By- Kaitlin Bevis
Genre- YA Paranormal
Blurb-
Life is hell for Persephone. Zeus will stop at nothing to gain access to the living realm and the Underworld, and as the only living god with a right to both, Persephone’s in trouble. Captured and tortured beyond the limits of her resolve, Persephone must find the power to stand against Zeus. But will she be strong enough?
Meanwhile, Hades contemplates desperate measures to rescue his queen. Persephone never thought of herself as dangerous, but there’s a reason gods never marry for love. A being with the power to destroy all of creation shouldn’t place more value in one individual than the rest of the planet. But Hades...Hades would break the world for her.
To save the world and stop both Hades and Zeus, Persephone must make a difficult choice. One that may cost her everything.
