I am desperately hopeing someone will recognize this series --- I read them all back in the 90's -- and would love to read them again, of course I can't remember a thing about them other than the stories....

See if this rings a bell:
*silhouette type romance, not sure if they actually were silhouette or some other type, they were thin books like these...
*10 books in series
*all books written by different authors
*each book about one of 10 siblings, each with a mythological god's name
*1st book in series was about Altas
*each book told the story of each siblings 18th year, and how that had to complete a task during their 18th year.... the task was given to them by their grandmother

Any help is appreciated!

Ok --- the first book was about the eldest son named Hercules --- his "labor" was to work in a library during his 20th year (began after his 20th birthday) --- he ends up learning a lesson and falling in love with the librarian...

 

His sister, and 2nd in the birth order --- her name was Persephone (I think they called her Percy) --- and she loved to cook, but had to perform a labor during her 20th year that was something completely opposite of cooking....

 

They had a brother named Cupid too --- not sure what order he was in.

I did a search for "Atlas" in synopses at the fictiondb.com website. Here's your series...

Sons and Daughters - published by Jove Publishing

The site only shows 6 titles, and doing a search for their surname, Daltry, in synopses does not reveal additional titles. But this might be a place to start.
