About this listen

Persephone's relationship with Hades has gone public, and the resulting media storm disrupts her normal life and threatens to expose her as the Goddess of Spring.

Hades, God of the Dead, is burdened by a hellish past that everyone's eager to expose in an effort to warn Persephone away.

Things only get worse when a horrible tragedy leaves Persephone's heart in ruin and Hades refusing to help. Desperate, she takes matters into her own hands, striking bargains with severe consequences.

Faced with a side of Hades she never knew and crushing loss, Persephone wonders if she can truly become Hades' queen.

Contains mature themes.

Reading this alternative take on the hades/Persephone story has been great so far. I enjoy reading the story from hades POV too. Looking forward to the next one.

Excellent series

Brilliantly read

I loved the first book and I think this book could have been so much more. The story is there but it more of a sex book than a story. I felt like every other chapter is sexual. I get it they are addicted to each other and they need each other but I just wanted more. I just found I was like “oh here we go again”.

Loved the performance but …
