The Season

The Season Synopsis

Girl, Goddess, Queen meets Powerless with a dash of Bridgerton in this enchanting YA fantasy. Greek gods rule the London Season, where mortal debutantes are set against each other in deadly trials to become divine.

Ten shall be chosen. One shall ascend. The rest... shall be worthy sacrifices.

Effie is a Winfield - one of the elite families of London in possession of powers gifted by the gods and passed down through generations. Each year, these families present their eligible sons and daughters at the Divine Forum to make powerful matches and attempt to secure the gods' favour once again.

Cassian Vale is the Winfield sisters' bodyguard. Left on the steps of the War College as a baby, his origins may be uncertain, but his skill with a blade is not.

There is gossip that this year may be a Season - with a capital S - where gods choose mortal suitors not for each other, but for themselves. Only one mortal will win the prize of ascending to sit amongst the gods - the rest are sacrifices.

So when Effie, Cassian and the younger Winfield sister, Abigail are all chosen by the gods to compete in the Season the family reels in shock. There is no way that more than one of them can make it through alive.

Effie is determined to change the course of fate - too bad she's caught the eye of the god that makes everything more dangerous: Hades.

This compulsive romantasy will have your heart racing as it twists and turns towards its unexpected conclusion.
