Genre: YA Urban Fantasy
Release Date: May 13th 2016
Summary from Goodreads:
Chrys has been in the Underworld for thousands of years, hidden away by her father, Hades, from all of the other gods. He's afraid that if someone finds out about her, they will destroy her because of the dichotomous power that she holds, the power of life and death. So she has remained in the Palace of Hades all her life, making very few friends and always bored out of her mind.
Huntley would have never guessed that after he died he would wake up with a beautiful girl standing over him. And that she would be the Dark Lord of the Underworld's daughter. Yet, for some reason, she keeps him around as her tutor, as if he knows anything about the world. But Huntley knows that all she really wants is a friend; being trapped in the Underworld can get pretty lonely.
That is, until Chrys decides she wants to run away to the human world after a big fight with her mother Persephone. Chrys claims her father is just over reacting and that nothing bad will come of it. There's no way that the gods will notice she's there for only a couple of days...right?

Review:
Hades and Persephone have a daughter and to keep her safe, he locks her up in the Underworld. But as teenagers do, she finds a way to escape. A good light teen read with some fun moments. I love twists on mythology and this is one of my favorites. I can't say that I liked this particular version of Persephone (a bit vain and unpleasant) but the story had a good premise and I'm looking forward to more in the series.
*typos in the book need to be scrubbed.
4/5
