I don't really like office romance but heard good things about this and gave it a try. I loved it. It avoided all the typical tropes of an office romance while having an interesting modern take on the Greek Gods. I got to 30% and then didn't want to put it down. The only thing I didn't understand is why Persephone is so caught up in the nepotism aspect when she knows she is capable at work.

A much less incestuous and kidnappy modern retelling of the myth of Persephone and Hades. But the instalove and the age gap remain (in a good way!) 

I appreciated the gender-diversity rep as well.
