Publisher's summary
For the Love of the Gods is a forced marriage of convenience, fantasy romance novel, the first in a series about the gods navigating love and politics in a modern setting. The plot will continue through the trilogy, but each book is a standalone romance.
Hades and Pluto. Husband and Wife.
The Greek and Roman gods have co-existed for over two thousand years. In the Underworld, House Hades and House Pluto have shared the responsibility of providing souls with a place to rest or a place to be punished. It stayed that way until an unexpected birth caused the godly systems to merge.
Dominic Pluto wants revenge. Rose Hades wants solace from Dominic's prying eyes and thinly veiled contempt. When marriage between their two Houses is the only option to keep the Upperworld happy amidst political upheaval, they are forced together. As tension, lies, and love grow, the more unlikely achieving those goals become.

Ryder, Garrett, Kenzo, and Diesel - The Vipers. Their deals are as sordid as their business, and their reputation is enough to bring a grown man to his knees, forcing him to beg for mercy. They are not people you mess with, yet my dad did. The old man ran up a debt with them and then sold me to cover his losses. Yes, sold me. They own me now. I’m theirs in every sense of the word. But I’ve never been meek and compliant.

Story
Obituary writer Nadine Barbault doesn’t mind being called “Lady Death”. It suits the ice queen persona she’s cultivated to survive the fast-paced Toronto Herald. So when Nadine learns that famous (and reclusive) author Dot Voline has died, she doesn’t hesitate to run the obituary…only to discover that Dot is very much alive. Nadine’s screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy—she’s been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years. But the renewed interest in Dot also surfaced chatter about a mysterious past scandal.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

Hockey coach Ashley Jaswal doesn't take nonsense from anyone … except her overbearing and superstitious family. They believe she's a good luck charm for her brother Jas, the newest Vancouver Canucks draft pick, forcing Ash to attend all his games as he rises up the NHL ranks, sacrificing her personal life (not that she has one—who decided hockey season needed to be 10 months long anyway?). Ash also clashes with Jas’s teammate, Canucks captain Devin Snyder.

The empire of Eisa once stood as a symbol of hope for purging the wicked magic that had plagued its lands. But when Wielders are spotted within those borders, the sanctity that once acted as an unshakable foundation crumbles beneath Sorrel Zdraevit's feet. With the resurgence of Wielders on Eisan soil, protests are increasing in the streets, citizens are suffering, and everywhere she turns tragedy fractures the facade of peace that had sheltered her.

Fresh off a breakup and an eviction, I started my day like any other: a book in one hand, a coffee in the other, and faking that can-do attitude inspirational memes are made of. I was ready to take on the world—and I did. Unfortunately, it was the Underworld. One freak accident later, I’m standing face to face with the sexy-as-sin and dangerously powerful Prince of the Underworld. He has a few burning questions for me—like how a mere human unlocked the door to the Underworld’s prison and released its prisoners.

Ophelia was born into a family of Hunters, tasked with protecting the humans from the creatures of the night who feast on their fear. Except Ophelia always found the idea of monsters kind of intriguing. She even made the grave sin of committing some X-rated monster thoughts to paper—which in hindsight may not have been the best idea because her parents were mortified—but you live and learn. Well, everyone finds out your secret, you get banished from society, and then you learn.

Since Adalina can remember, the men in her life have expected obedience and compliance from her. But how can she give that to them when her destiny is to follow in her grandmother’s footsteps and soar upon the dragon’s back? When the neighboring kingdom of Astarfall insists on an ancient marriage ceremony to wake the slumbering dragon, it seems Adalina’s dreams are at long last within reach. But marriage to an arrogant, smirking Prince—even one as breathtakingly sexy as this one—means placing power and authority in yet another man’s hands.

Hiding from the Highers' laws and the eyes of the Elites, the Highers' weapon, I make sure we survive the best we can while we live our simple lives. When we collected a female in need to bring her back to Eridian, it was supposed to go as planned, like any other time. And it did until a letter changed it all. As Alpha of Eridian, I have to keep our home a secret and my pack safe at any cost. Even if the cost is me.

Narration top notch!
The narrator's voices in this one are perfect! I love the growl she gives the MMC. Even though it is one narrator, she captures the characters so well.
The story is intriguing and complex, a true enemies to lovers story and I look forward to seeing what comes next.
