Everneath

Remember when I said that I love Greek and Roman mythology? Well Brodi Ashton puts a delicious twist on the Persephone myth with her book Everneath. We follow Nikki as she returns to the Surface from spending some time in the underworld, or Everneath. She has six months on the Surface before she has to return to the underworld and become Cole's (an inhumanly gorgeous immortal) queen. Nikki longs to spend her last six months reconnecting with her boyfriend, Jack, and saying goodbye to her family; the only problem? Cole has followed her to the Surface and will do just about anything to ensure Nikki's return to the Everneath.

There are plenty of good books with a different twist on the myth of Persephone, but this one is one of the best. If you love, love,  love the bittersweet and angst of Persephone, you will definitely enjoy Everneath.

Everneath is a trilogy with Everneath, Everbound, and an untitled third book that will be out in January of 2014.
