Not sure how I stumbled onto this series but here I am reading another one. It’s very dramatic with tons of over the top storylines and plot but it’s fun in a soap opera kind of way. I like stories where the ancient gods are used in modern day settings. Fair warning a lot of things get resolved via sex so if that’s not your thing pick something else.

I love Greek mythology and that is the reason I decided to read this series. The story is cute, it's a quick romance read. It has a lot. A LoT of spice and it detracts from the storyline quite a bit.

I also have two words of advice for our modern authors...SPELL CHECK! Please...and grammar. I'm sure there are a lot of readers that would love to proof read and give some feedback. The book also has a few plot holes and the timeline doesn't always make sense.

I would still recommend it, just know what you're getting into before you start. It's not the best writing, it's not an epic fantasy, it's a fun romantasy with a good dose of smuttiness ☺️

PS. Check your trigger warnings

I felt as though Persephone was always trying to retaliate against Hades and that part kinda got old. I was entirely shocked with the whole Lexa situation that was something else. I didn’t like Mr janitor guy from the beginning and didn’t know where his character was going. I’m still not the biggest fan of Luice though like when Antoni was like once a traitor always a traitor I was on edge from that point forward.

An amazing sequel! Honestly loved this so much, cannot wait to continue following Hades and Persephone. Scarlet st Clair made these characters so real that you care so much as they experience heartache and sorrow. And you feel it when they triumph.
