"I won't share you, Persephone. When you're mine, you'll be only mine. I won't accept half of you."
This book was SO much better than I anticipated it to be. The writing was easy to understand, the characters weren't all insufferable (looking at you shadow & bone) and I enjoyed the spice.
And guys, even better, ARTWORK. There is spicy artwork scattered throughout the book in several chapters. I absolutely loved that little detail and you don't often see that in books.
Hades and Persephone had an interesting build up with their relationship. This is by no means a slow burn romance, we get instant tension from the beginning and a few ✨️special✨️ scenes before the relationship really kicks off later in the book. I was lucky enough to receive ebook copies of this series from the publisher, and I couldn't be more grateful. I can't wait to see what the sequel has in store for their relationship and new obstacles they'll be facing after the ending of this book.
Spoiler Alert: Jackson is a jackass.
