I am thoroughly disappointed with this series, especially this book.
SSC spends so much time with H x P having sex, that she takes away from the rest of the plot. If there was more attention to that, and not every time Hades f***s Persephone, then it actually might have been a good book. Because of this too, Hades character has no development. It was like SSC only had him written in to be Persephone’s f***buddy.
It pissed me off, and I hate that SSC is dragging this out with a fourth in the series. She should’ve just stopped after the first one.
