Tender Cruelty (Dark Olympus Book 9)

Tender Cruelty is a modern retelling of Hera and Zeus. Hera is the wife, lover, and sworn enemy of Zeus, Olympus's most hated king. The barrier protecting Olympus for generations has fallen, and enemies have breached the gates. The Thirteen scramble to protect themselves, their loved ones, and the city they've sworn to defend—though internal conflict threatens their efforts. Hera intends to ensure Zeus does not survive the coming storm. However, when forced to work together, the white-hot hatred between them transforms into something more powerful and undeniable. As Hera and Zeus stand back-to-back amid the ruins of Olympus, Hera confronts the possibility that she has misjudged her husband. Their marriage may hold something worth saving if they can survive long enough to transform from sworn enemies into something deeper.
