The Chronicles of Minerva

When Diana of the cursed house Bellatrix loses her life, she is forced to admit to the king of the underworld that she had not become the hero she promised him. 

He did not rage, nor smite her soul where she stood. The king’s only demand for resurrection was her attendance at Afterlife Academy, a rehabilitation center for failed heroes of history. A place where she can learn to control her destructive, bloodthirsty power. As she adapts to her new home, she unexpectedly encounters a godchild of Mars known as Calix. His soft smiles and carefree laughter fill her chest with a warmth she has never known. 

One that will come to haunt her as she embarks on a journey to discover the truth of her cursed bloodline - the untold story of two people gripped by the warring hands of fate and love. One that proves the attraction she harbors toward Calix could have drastic consequences. 

A new adult fantasy reminiscent of A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Mass and The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller, Bound in Death explores true love and its limits.
