I love love love Hades!! The other characters are wonderful as well. My only issue with this book is the world building. It was rather shocking to see Greek gods have access to modern day technology and know about modern day places in America. I’d have preferred if the author had kept them in Ancient Greece or brought them fully to the modern day.

This book was SO MUCH FUN!! Like the blurb on the cover says, its sex scenes are "unspeakably hot", with Hades being a loving, caring dom and Persephone a bratty sub (which is exactly how I would imagine them, and it's to die for). But apart from that, the book is also incredibly clever and suspenseful. The original myth is modernised in a way that you never see coming, but that's so smart and made me yell in excitement. 

I will definitely be reading more from this author, if only because I need to know more about this divine world. (And because the smut is just so good.)

10% fantasy, 90% smut. I just…. I just need a little more story, man. It’s so, so close to being interesting. But hey, if you’re looking for gloriously gratuitous smut then boy do i have the book for you

I much prefer this version of Hades and Persephone over the version in A Touch of Darkness. Unique world building, compelling plot, interesting characters, and excellent spice. I only wish there'd been a little more exposition to really establish the villain as scary and threatening. Looking forward to reading the second one!

Amazing book, I love Katee Robert’s books. Can’t wait to read the rest of the series. I loved Persephone and Hades relationship and how we all hate Zeus. Such a cute relationship but full of spice dang 🥵. Have fun reading
