Publisher Description
*A scorchingly hot modern retelling of Eurydice and Orpheus and Charon.*
Eurydice Dimitriou has always been the innocent sister, but she’s finally ready to step out of the long shadow cast by her powerful family…and the ex who shattered her heart. Perhaps rough hands on soft skin are exactly what she needs to forget her heartbreak once and for all?
Charon Ariti has been Hades’s right-hand man for years. He’s given everything to the lower city, but now he’s ready to take something for himself. He’s only too happy to give Eurydice a special kind of education…but is her heart really free enough to be claimed?
Orpheus Makos will do whatever it takes to make things right. Once the golden boy of the upper city, he’s now a shadow of his former self. He’ll do anything to get Eurydice back…even if it means she’s not coming into his arms alone. Three hearts. Three futures. Countless ways to get it wrong.
But with enemies slipping through Olympus’s faltering barrier to lay siege on the lower city, a trio of broken hearts will be the least of these would-be lovers’ worries…

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Robert delivers another sizzling mythological retelling in the sixth installment to her blockbuster Dark Olympus series (after Cruel Seduction). After bad boy Orpheus loves and leaves Eurydice, she initiates a rebound relationship with her longtime best friend, Charon, during a time of all-out danger in the dystopian city of Olympus. When Orpheus comes crawling back, deeply remorseful and professing his love, Eurydice is conflicted. Charon, who will do anything to make her happy, urges her to explore her lingering feelings and get some closure. Both dating the same woman, the men initially barely tolerate each other, but as they spend more time together, unexpected feelings develop. Soon all three members of the throuple are hoping for a happily ever after. The kinky ménage will get readers' pulses pounding while the tense political situation in Olympus keeps the stakes high. Though this works as a standalone, series readers will find particular enjoyment in cameos from favorite characters and a deeper understanding of the ongoing Olympian unrest. This series shows no signs of flagging.
