Goddesses in the modern world are burnt out, exhausted, and in need of a break. Worse, many have joined the ranks of the forgotten and disremembered.Habonde Barleywine trusts she has a solution. Problem is, this goddess of the hearth has lost her temples, her acolytes, and many of her key memories. How is she going to persuade sistren like Demeter, Persephone, and Brigit to support her grand ambition, when she needs to put her own house in order? Baubo, goddess of mirth and Habonde's BFF, offers support in her own bawdy way. But things get complicated when Hades shows up in need of a favor and Zeus's ego is threatened.Over the centuries, Habonde's dalliances with dryads, naiads, and other immortals have kept her entertained. However, no one has ever captured her heart. Her unfinished business with the Woodsman - who seems to remember every moment of their shared past - could be the key to her undoing.
The Goddess of Spring and Queen of the Underworld is out of balance with who she's meant to be.As Persephone shares domain of the Underworld alongside Hades, she struggles to get a handle on her growing frustrations. The constant pull between the King - her husband in title only - and the demands of her mother, Demeter, have forced Persephone into an untenable situation.Regular Godsrests keep her refreshed and renewed - and protected from reality. The rests also propel her further and further from her origin story - at least the one most commonly told - forcing Persephone to re-examine every assumption she has about herself. Though her quest to find her voice and stand up for herself doesn't signal a complete break from her duties and obligations, it does require the beloved immortal to craft a wholly new balance between her dual roles as Goddess of Spring, and Queen of the Underworld.
