When Persephone departed the mortal realm for Olympus, she was eager to begin a new life. However, she rapidly found the dark side of her dazzling new home—from small rumors endangering her reputation to a realm-shattering violation of her safety by the egotistical Apollo—and she's still fighting to find her footing in the gods' fast-paced world. Hades is similarly off-kilter, battling his growing love for the child goddess of spring while preserving his lonely Underworld reign. As the two become closer, they must disentangle the tangled webs of their past and present in order to create a new future. 

The cliffhanger is crushing me, but I enjoyed the book. Nothing very outstanding. I'm starting to loathe Hades, but each episode makes Persephone seem more and more relatable.
