I love how Jennifer Saint weaves together multiple versions of a myth. It's one of my favorite things about her work. But this ending made me sad! I wanted Ariadne to have her happily ever after with Dionysus and their children. I liked Atalanta better. This one hurt. 😭

I’ve been hungry for Greek Mythology retellings recently, and this one really hit the spot!

[a:Jennifer Saint|19734894|Jennifer Saint|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1611692824p2/19734894.jpg] has breathed color, depth, and life into the minor characters of Ariadne and Phaedra, giving them lives and motivations outside of the male gods and heroes whose stories they’d previously served as decoration for. I loved it!
