A Touch of Darkness
by Scarlett St. Clair
I love Hades and Persephone, and this retelling quickly became one of my favorites. Scarlett St. Clair reimagines Persephone as a young goddess trying to find her place in the mortal world. She is living in disguise, hiding her powers, and struggling to control her magic. When she meets Hades, the dark and magnetic God of the Dead, everything changes.
The story pulls you right into their push and pull relationship. Persephone is torn between fear of who Hades is and fascination with who he is beneath the surface. The way their romance develops feels both forbidden and inevitable, and the tension between them makes it impossible to stop reading.
What I loved most was how unique this retelling felt. It combines mythology with a modern edge, giving the characters more depth and complexity. It is not just about their romance, but also about power, identity, and what it means to truly live.
This book was such a fun escape, full of passion, mythology, and spice. I absolutely loved it and cannot wait to keep going with the series.
