After Midnight #1

by Brandy Greeley

Persephone, goddess of spring, is cursed and sent to live in Portland, Oregon, without any memory of who she really is, or where she came from, so when a compelling stranger appears at the scene of a murder, telling her stories about their supposed lives together, she's more than a little suspicious of his motives, but something about him calls out to her. Can she figure out what it is in time, and break the curse, or will she lose herself, and her family, forever?

Reviews

[Todd · Rating 5 out of 5]

After Midnight is an excellent debut work exploring the collision of Greek Gods and Goddesses with our modern world. The book centers around the romance of Hades and Persephone and the tension between who we are destined to be and who we choose to be.

[Brandy Greeley · Rating 4 out of 5]

This re-telling of the classic Hades and Persephone story is set in modern-day Portland and offers a fresh, new perspective on the world of the gods. Persephone, goddess of Spring, is cursed when she refuses to accept a marriage proposal from another god. She's sent without her memories to Portland, Oregon and Hades follows her there, convinced he can somehow get her to remember him, her life and their epic love before it's too late.
If this is your genre, I'd recommend giving it a shot.
