A Dance With Death
Finley Harlow knows what it's like to live life on other people's terms.
Those of her family, of her boyfriend, of society as a whole... Granted, the decisions she'd made had always been her own, but her options had always been limited. And the choices had always been simple. Do as her grandmother tells her, or be cut off. Play house like a good little girlfriend, or not have a house to come home to at all. Take the easy road, or risk burning in the crash.
Most of her life she spent drawing inside other people's lines, but when those lines start to unravel, Finley decides there is only one way to go: out.
Sometimes, however, the only way towards freedom is through hell. And sometimes, that hell is run by a handsome but unpredictable god with a goal of his own...

N.B.: Greek gods & goddesses are part of this story, as are other supernatural beings, but my take on them is modern. This is not a Hades & Persephone retelling. Trigger Warnings will be added along the way.
