So, funny story, it turns out that Greek gods are real. And my deadbeat dad? He’s one of them. Now, I’m at the demigod academy, and they keep going on about me being the chosen one, which would be great if my classes weren’t trying to kill me. On the plus side, have you seen the guys?

Olympus Academy: The Complete Collection
I’m Pandora and apparently, I’m a Titan.
And I didn’t have a clue. When I finally meet my absent mom for the first time ever, she tells me that I’m descended from the almighty Oceanus, drags me under the sea and dumps me at Olympus Academy to learn to use my powers. And boy did she forget to tell me a few things.
It turns out that other than the gorgeous and mysterious Icarus, I’m the only Titan at the academy. Everyone else is an Olympian. And Zeus, Lord of Olympus, hates Titans. He’ll do whatever he can to get us out of the academy.
But the one thing mom did tell me was that if I don’t graduate, I’ll be forced back to the mortal world where demons will be drawn to me and my family and kill us. So getting kicked out of school is not an option.
The only way I can get back to my dad and little sister without getting them killed is to become so powerful that I can move between the worlds and handle demons. And to do that I need to unlock my Titan powers.
The trouble is, I’ll have to work with Icarus, and he is impossibly moody and unhelpful. Plus I can’t think straight every time I get a glimpse of those piercing green eyes… Added to that, the other students are doing their best to make my life hell.
I don’t care how hard it gets though, I’ll do whatever I need to to get back to my family.

I’m just a girl. And it turns out, I’m Hercules.
I’m struggling to survive in a Titan infested world where Spartans, immortals from twelve royal families who have god-like powers and obscene wealth, rule over all. A shy-stammering foster child with nothing, I keep my head down, cover my scars, and focus on excelling in school. At least, I try to. Then it happens.
My blood test reveals I’m part of the powerful elite. I’m one of them. A Spartan.
Forced to attend the Spartan War Academy, I undergo the most harrowing test of all time to see if I have what it takes to be an immortal. There’s just a few problems. Achilles and Patro are my scary mentors. Kharon, the ferryman of death, and Augustus, the son of war, are my terrifying professors. Also, I’m pretty sure either someone’s stalking me everywhere I go, or my sanity’s slipping––I have a bad feeling both are true.
I’m surrounded by Villains and they’re smothering me with their hate, obsession, and dark possessiveness. Too bad for them, they have no clue just who they’re messing with.
