Prequel to the Furies Series.
Cora is the immortal Greek goddess Persephone, living in a Malibu beach house in the twenty-first century. No matter how much therapy she undergoes, nothing eases the pain of her husband's recent murder.
Until Gabriel Cartwright walks into her life.
Gabe is a prim and proper East Coast realtor, hired to manage her move to Toronto. He's sweet, kind, and seemingly human. But beneath the surface, he belongs to a dwindling race of nymphs hunted for centuries by the ancient Olympian gods and goddesses—a race Cora has sworn to protect at any cost.
She didn't choose him by accident; she chose him because she knew what was coming.
As the slow-burning spark between them ignites, Olympus takes notice—and they're determined to kill Gabe to punish Cora and reclaim the power she's fought so hard to keep.
Now, Cora must guard Gabe with her life—or risk tearing the heavens apart trying.
Content warning: CORA features a goddess who enjoys bad language, romance, and sexual situations. Although Cora is the same goddess as Persephone four thousand years earlier in A.L. Hawke's Cora: Rise of the Fallen Goddess, this contemporary urban fantasy is suited for an adult audience.
