this book/author was recommended to me by a B&N worker! and it’s the best recommendation i’ve received in a while, i really enjoyed reading this book & i hope others enjoy it as well. although it might not exceed the hype some may have started reading it for, it met my expectations & exceeded them by the end of the book.

Exactly what I was looking for in a romance book. I didn’t think I wanted something about the Greek gods but here we are. I loved it.

Just another Persephone/Hades retelling and it was okay. The plot was meh and very predictable, but HOT DAMN the smut was excellent. 
I'm not usually a fan of instant love/lust but for some reason it really worked here (for me at least). It's definitely not going to be for everybody but I found it refreshing to read something I didn't have to take seriously! The amount of consent not only in smut scenes but in the characters every day lives was so great to see.
