Book overview
NATIONAL BESTSELLER - Old gods, new rules. New York Times bestselling author Katharine McGee boldly reimagines the Greek gods as a family of billionaires--with all the messy drama that entails.
"A modern twist on Greek mythology that blends the opulence of Crazy Rich Asians with the scandal of Gossip Girl."--Woman's World
When Julia Dodds meets Harry Adams, love hits her like a lightning bolt. He's adventurous, charismatic, and impossibly handsome. Little does Julia know that her boyfriend has left out a few key details. His name isn't Harry: it's Ares, as in the ancient god of war. His mother is Hera, and his father is Zeus.
Soon, Julia is caught up in a world of wealth and privilege as she joins Harry at a lavish family reunion. Except these billionaires don't just have wealth--they have divine powers. And the moment she steps onto their private island, Julia becomes their latest target.
It's no secret that the Gods love to meddle, and when it comes to Julia, Harry's immortal relatives each have their own agenda. Harry's mother, Hera, will do anything to protect her own. Harry's sister-in-law Aphrodite has a deeply personal reason for hating Julia, and tasks Hermes, keeper of family secrets, with digging up dirt. Meanwhile, Hades has spent years trying to upend Zeus's power--and now he finally sees an opportunity to strike.
Set against a globe-trotting backdrop that sweeps from New York's exclusive private clubs to the wilds of New Zealand to the gated estates of the British aristocracy, Ungodly Rich is a story of love, revenge, secrets, sex, and the most ancient motivator of all: family.
