HADES X PERSEPHONE RETELLING! BOOK 3 OF 7
Clara Presley is the woman who chose chaos. Having accepted the dangerous destiny tied to John Carrington—her controlling husband and the second-in-command of the Irish mob—she thought the secrets were finally behind them. She was wrong.
A secret informant within the County Mayo Clan has targeted Clara, forcing Carrington to send her into hiding across the sea to Ireland. Cut off from her life, Clara must contend with the chilling reality that her newfound power has painted a target on her back.
While seeking refuge, Clara forms an unexpected bond with Carrington's mother, only to encounter his powerful, estranged father, Nicholas Smith, the Don of a rival crime family. Nicholas knows the identity of the informant who wants Clara dead, but his price is absolute: he needs Clara to convince Carrington to work with him.
Torn between her own life and Carrington's hatred of his father, Clara begins keeping dangerous secrets from the man who is trying to protect her. She's dodging death and deceit at every turn, realizing that in their world, the lie is the only currency of survival.
To save herself and her marriage, Clara must decide which mob to trust and which loyalty to break. But every secret she keeps brings her closer to the terrible, fated truth about her husband's family—and her own destiny in the Underworld.
