Interesting modern twist on Greek mythology. There were some details left out of the world building that are bugging me a little bit but nothing I'd say that ruins the story. Interesting concept and enjoyable. 

As for the scenes, it is the very definition of "consent is sexy". It is a little heavy on the kink so maybe not everyone's cup of tea, but it is hands down the best portrayal I've seen of a healthy BDSM relationship. 

Overall, probably one of my favorite smut books. Looking forward to the next one.

Voordat je aan dit boek begint, lees eerst even de trigger warnings. Ik dacht dat het een romance was, maar het is bijna puur spice. Er zit een verhaallijn in, maar hier ligt helaas de focus niet. Je volgt een verhaal van Persephone en Hades, twee van mijn favoriete personages. De andere goden, zijn ook echt goed beschreven zonder dat daar de focus op ligt. Hades is zoals altijd een donkere, duistere man met een klein gouden hartje. Hij beschermt alles wat hem lief is. Ik vond de manier hoe de romance zich ontwikkelde echt mooi om te lezen. Van een deal naar echte gevoelens. Hij laat duidelijk zien dat hij alles voor Persephone over heeft

zelfs het adopteren van drie puppy's 🤭

de schrijfstijl is ook erg prettig en hij leest vlot weg. Ik had het alleen fijner gevonden als het verhaallijn iets meer naar voren was gekomen.

ook was het vermoorden van de machtige Zeus wel erg makkelijk

. Ondanks alles heb ik toch genoten en wil alle andere delen ook lezen!

I really enjoyed this take on Greek gods and was very happy with how consent was a main plot point in the story.

All the characters were very interesting and I thought the author did a good job of showing the Persephone and Hades dynamic as equal. Also I enjoyed the mention of them both being queer (although not labeled)

I actually wanted more information on the overall world, so hopefully I will learn more in the other books.
