Recommendation: Oracle of Delphi Series

Oracle of Delphi
What! Another post on
Friday? Yep, I’m not done yet. The last two years I recommended a book (you
know which one, it starts with a C. No? Carrie Pilby! Now you do. Right?) and
in 2013 I want to do this again, but with series. And why not start with a
great one: The Oracle of Delphi. I've read the first two books, Prophecy of the Most Beautiful & Prophecy of the Setting Sunrise, both awesome books and the third book is in June! And how excited am I? EXCITED AND I JUST CAN"T HIDE IT, I"M ABOUT TO LOSE CONTROLE. :) The characters, the romance, the plot, J'adore it. This series has it all. Anyways, here's the description (third book):
Summer Solstice is here. Let the games begin.
Nothing but lies (some of them her own) and deceit have brought Chloe to Olympus for the Solstice Olympic Games. As the Oracle and the special guest of the King of Myth, Chloe becomes immersed in a life of unfathomable luxury, taunting history, and overwhelming excitement. Though scheming and untrustworthy, the gods remain on their best behavior as the tension and anticipation builds around the outcome of the Quest of the Twelve Labors, the deadliest competition of the Games. All seems well on the celestial front...until athletes start turning up dead and a philosopher missing for months returns with a most terrifying story...

But that’s not all.
As Strafford confronts his troubled past and more is learned about the
Great Unknown Prophecy, Chloe grows close to another, setting off a chain of
events that will bring her face-to-face with a truth that will rock both of her
worlds to their core. And it’ll all happen before Solstice’s end...
