Darling of Death

Ariel never expected her life to take a turn straight into myth.One moment she's navigating her ordinary world, the next she's standing before a throne carved from obsidian, surrounded by shadows that whisper of secrets long buried-and facing a man who defies every expectation of what a god should be."Hades," he says with a smirk, lounging like royalty draped in sin. Not the ancient, grey-bearded ruler of the Underworld from her childhood stories. No. This Hades is devastatingly gorgeous, with chiseled features, piercing eyes, and the kind of presence that swallows a room whole. Think Calvin Klein model... if the model controlled death and owned all the riches beneath the earth.Ariel is stunned. Who wouldn't be? But before she can fully process what's happening, Hades drops another bombshell: she's not just visiting. She's staying. Indefinitely.Caught between denial and a dangerous attraction, Ariel must navigate a world of divine politics, hidden truths, and the magnetic pull of a god who's supposed to be the villain-but who just might steal her heart instead.This isn't the Underworld you've read about. This is darker. Sexier. And much, much more complicated.If you love witty banter, powerful gods, forced proximity, and enemies-to-lovers tension wrapped in ancient mythology-this is your next obsession.
