Olympus High: The Hidden
Everything changes the day I die.
My life is already a complete disaster, but nothing prepares me for what happens on my eighteenth birthday. For the first time ever, my dad actually wants to celebrate by taking me fishing. I’m stunned.
I’m even more stunned when he tries to kill me.
Left for dead, I’m rescued by a stranger with haunted eyes and a past full of secrets—Eryx, a merman bound by duty and shadowed by sorrow. Thrown into a world brimming with ancient magic, myth, and dangerous truths, I learn that the man I thought was my father… isn’t. I’m not even human. I’m one of three triplet sisters, destined to wield a power others kill to possess.
As I begin to unravel the mystery of who—and what—I really am, I also have to learn to trust. And trust never comes easy for me. When your father is the king of the gods, betrayal isn’t just possible—it’s inevitable. Bound by blood and torn apart by fate, my sisters and I rise from the shadows, determined to challenge the god who wronged us—Zeus. Our father. In a world where love is dangerous and truth is buried deep, destiny waits with wings unfurled and claws poised to strike.

About the author
Holly Kelly
14 books349 followersHolly Kelly is a wife, mother of six, author, editor, former English teacher, and daydreamer. Holly spent her childhood in a small town in Kansas reading, climbing trees, tumbling across her front yard, and swimming daily at the local pool where she spent her time pretending to be a mermaid.
When she was a young teen, she and her family moved to Texas (where she discovered how much she hated the heat), and then, during her senior year in high school, they moved to Utah. Despite living in the desert, Holly's fascination with the ocean grew. Before graduating from high school, she decided she wanted to be a marine biologist. This led to her attending college in Hawaii. She adored her time there swimming in the blue waters and studying the marine life, but missing her family had her returning to the mainland.
While attending college at BYU in Provo, Utah, she met and married karate teacher, James Kelly. Holly and James then welcomed six amazing children into their home. Between diaper changes and late-night feedings, Holly decided she wasn't tired enough. She began writing a novel, which she did between 3 and 6 AM every morning (before the kids woke up). Several years and four completed novels later, CTP Publishing offered her a contract to publish Rising, and the rest, they say, is history! Holly now has seven published novels, including the first book in a trilogy that released in September 2024. She also has several published short stories, all of which you can read on this website by clicking here.
Holly now spends her time writing young adult, paranormal books, freelance editing, and working on her master's degree in Creative Writing. Oh, and don't forget reading! She's always reading!

This is my first book by Holly Kelly. Although it is book 2 in the Olympus High series, I wasn't lost much by starting with this one. This book tells the story of Attie and Eryx. Attie has had a terrible childhood with a father who hates her. Then her birthday changed her life forever. Eryx has been frozen for 200 years only to be thawed out, and all his brothers and sisters are gone. They run into each other, and the adventure begins. This is a fun young adult paranormal fantasy. It has no spice, but there is romance. This book has Greek gods, demigods, merpeople, sirens, powers, and more. It is a fun read. I will be checking out book 1 and continuing the series.

This was a quick easy read. I enjoyed it but the romance started out strong but the last half of this book it just fizzled out, and there was none. Author Holly Kelly usually balances a good solid romance with good story telling. I have read all her books and I would recommend reading her Rising series.

Okay I wish this book had a little recap but what happened in the last book but other than that I enjoyed this sisters book and finding out what her powers were and everything she went through can’t wait for the next book
