A Touch of Darkness by Scarlett St. Clair
3.75
[Reread]
When I first read this book almost 4 years ago, I thought Persephone was immature and annoying. Today, I feel like I still think that. Her anger always got the best of her and she would lash out immaturely. It drove me up the wall.
As much as I disliked Persephone, the story was really good. I think it was a good starting point for the next one. It's a growing relationship between her and Hades. I love how it is a fast-paced instant love romance, but no epilogue moved to them being married with little Demi-Gods running around in the Underworld.
Persephone slowly learning how to stand up for herself and grow up is a struggle. I have never disliked an FMC as much as I do Persephone. If I didn't enjoy the love story between her and Hades, and if I didn't have hope she wouldn't be so naive in the next books are the only reasons why I kept reading the series.
I have to say, Scarlett St. Clair knows how to write a spicy scene as if it's like breathing. Even though I despise the phrase "bundle of nerves", it was still very good.
