Shadows of the Gods by S.M. Schmitz

As a powerful demigod, Selena has been running from the gods who control the government agency, the New Pantheon, for the past three years, but now, they’ve caught up to her.

When they trap Selena in an alleyway in New Orleans, she is ready to admit defeat. But an unfamiliar demigod rescues her, and the more she learns about Cameron, the more she discovers their common bonds may be the key to unraveling her own mysterious history.

In the first book of The Unbreakable Sword series, Selena and Cameron must not only evade the New Pantheon, which is ruthlessly hunting the remaining gods and their descendants, but an angry Aztec god that wants Selena’s power to himself. And they will both discover that in the final battle of the gods, no one can be trusted.

As Cameron and Selena learn more about their ancestry, they discover that by connecting to their pasts, they are already becoming more powerful. But Cameron refuses to consider a future with the Tuatha Dé, and Selena cannot imagine a future without them.

Meanwhile, the Norse, the oldest rivals of the Tuatha Dé, know the prophecy that ties Selena to the future of their enemies, and the easiest way to defeat them is by killing her. But the Otherworld remains the prized treasure for all of the gods, and one outcast in particular has set his sights on overthrowing the Irish alliance on the eve of Samhain.

In the second book of The Unbreakable Sword series, Selena will be faced with the possibility of the Tuatha Dé losing the Otherworld as well as losing her friendship with Cameron. And if Cameron refuses to join her on the Irish pantheon, whom can she really trust amongst the gods?
