Ruled by Pain Sarah Bale

A prophecy shall unravel what has been since the beginning of time. Old Gods will weep as their Beloveds fade. Only New Blood on the throne will restore balance to their World. Hades, Lord of the Underworld, has watched for twenty-five years as his Queen slipped away meaning only one thing - a new Goddess of Spring is on her way. Aubrey Davies has a special gift - the ability to talk to the dead. After she meets an alluring stranger, she finds herself thrown into a world where Gods still rule and Oracles weave tales of what is to be. With Hades, Ares, and Hermes at her side, Aubrey discovers the price she must pay to take the throne, but that pain may not be the only thing she has to fear.
