A myth passed down through many generations, oral retellings have twisted the story of Hades and Persephone. Now, for the first time ever, readers can learn the truth of what really happened all those years ago. The accidental discovery of a lost scroll at the Temple of Concordia has Desi Sagona flying halfway around the world to Persephone Island, a small spot off the east coast of Sicily where the fabled goddess herself supposedly once resided. It's a welcomed change for the newly graduated archeologist who can't get away fast enough from her alma mater of Chapel Hill--nor the rumors about an embarrassing affair with her apparently married professor. Ready for a change of scene, she's thankful when a friend tells her about the opportunity to assist on a dig in the country of her dreams. However, the dream quickly turns into a nightmare when the excavation site collapses, leaving her buried inside. With the scroll still in hand, Desi slips in and out of consciousness as she tries to translate the story that will change her life forever. An exciting, sensual journey that will leave some readers breathless, Pleasing Persephone is rated 5 flames for adult language and situations. less
