What a fun read—this one nailed the spice level!
Yes, the author took some creative liberties with the Greek gods, but honestly, what author hasn’t? The playful, teasing quarrels throughout most chapters kept things engaging, but what really stood out was Persephone’s transformation into her darker era—because who doesn’t love a good girl gone bad?
I absolutely loved Hades as a character, and I’d happily dive into more books centered around him. The author struck a perfect balance between being descriptive in all the right moments while leaving just enough to the imagination. And while this book brought the heat, it didn’t skimp on the romance either.
Enemies-to-lovers isn’t usually my favorite trope, but this one? It did the trope justice!
