Why these tropes fit
A cursed office clerk in San Francisco is unexpectedly chosen by Hades, King of the Underworld, as his mortal champion in the Crucible—a deadly, gods-run tournament to determine the next ruler of Olympus. While navigating her role as Hades' pawn, bait, or something else entirely, she grapples with developing feelings for the dangerously tempting, ruthless god who keeps more secrets than the stars in the sky.
