Heartbroken does not begin to describe how Nicole Clark feels... Since the day she met the mysterious man known only as Five, she's been in love with him (though she could never vocalize it). And that all encompassing love came before she even found out that he is the Olympian God Zeus, reincarnated into the body of a handsome African American man. Soon after, meeting his siblings...younger sister, Pearl, the reincarnated Goddess of Grain, Agriculture and the Harvest, Growth, and Nourishment, Demeter...his younger brother, Ezra, the God of the Underworld, Hades, and the youngest of them, Andre, the God of the Sea, Poseidon...she learned about the re-emergence of the Titans and Five's fear that a new Titanomachy had begun. After defeating Perses, the Titan of Destruction, and his minions, Five, Nicole, and the rest of the residents of Mt. Olympus enjoyed a brief respite of peace... until new threats emerged... The children of Hyperion, Zeus's Retinue, Menoetius, and Lelantos to name a few... from within and without the ranks of the Titans. After Nicole suffered near deadly injuries at the hands of the Titans, Five ended things with her... breaking her heart... in hopes to save her life and spare her similar pain at the hands of future threats. The Olympians believe one of these threats is Hecate, Goddess of magic, witchcraft, the night, moon, ghosts and necromancy...since magic is the means and reason for most of these threats returns. Hecate, now reincarnated as Faith Howard, appeared in Nicole's apartment just after Five was kidnapped by unknown forces, hoping to explain herself and possibly offer assistance.Hecate...Faith's appearance comes on the heels of an earth-shattering that ties Nicole and Brandy together for the rest of their lives. They find that they have the same mother and that their mother along with one of their siblings has shaped their lives in ways they wouldn't have believed possible. Armed with this news, Nicole committed herself to helping the other Olympians retrieve Five from his would-be captors, even if it means going into the bowels of Tartarus, Greek God Hell, to get him. Will they be able to find a way to enter Tartarus? Will they find Five before he meets his end? And what role will the Goddess Nyx, a frequent intruder in Nicole's life of late, and her children play in the coming conflict?

Readers will meet Simon the Dove, Carl the Owl, Ivory the Parrot, and Dee the Eagle at the Learning Tree where they expect to take lessons in flying.

As the young birds confront one of the greatest challenges their forest has ever faced, they will learn to embrace who they are and let their style shine. Likewise, young readers will learn to share their unique strengths and natural gifts with the world.
