Summary

Persephone and Hades are engaged. In retaliation, Demeter summons a snowstorm that cripples New Greece and refuses to lift the blizzard unless her daughter calls off her engagement.

When the Olympians intervene, Persephone finds her future in the hands of ancient gods, and they are divided. Do they allow Persephone to marry Hades and go to war with Demeter or prohibit their union and take up arms against the God of the Dead?

Nothing is certain but the promise of war.

Contains mature themes.

Amazing - can’t wait for the next book

This book made me so happy, if I could rate it higher I would. The relationship between the main characters became healthier in this book, and both character growth and plot were written excellently.

Narrator is also very talented and brought to life the story and individual characters. I appreciated the softness she brought to Persephone.

I love this series but...

I absolutely love this persephone and hades storyline but this book has so many sex scenes (and I can't belive I am saying this), I would roll my eyes as the it's the same buil up, same words, same obsessionyou hear for every scene. It's doesn't feel as exciting after the first 5 or so times lol.

I feel the author could of reined the sex scenes in a bit, and have fewer scene that are most teasing and more explosive.

I'm keen to see how the story ends so will continue to listen :)

Great listen

I love the callbacks and details!
the story with the oloympains is amazing had me screaming tbh !
cannot wait for the next book!

the narrator is great she puts so much emotion into the performance!
love the different voices she does. I could guess which character was speaking before she narrated the characters name.

there were a couple of small plot holes but nothing that would ruin the story just a little irritating
9/10 would recommend!

Can’t wait to listen to the next instalment. If it’s anything like this one I’m sure I will love it.

Ehhh

I started off enjoying the series but I’m starting to get bored. I saw someone else mention the sharp decline in Hades as a character and I would have to agree. Also the frequency of the sex scenes made me roll my eyes. Its just getting boring with how often it happens. Had a fight? Sex. Someone died? Sex. Just woke up after a night of sex? But wait, there’s more! Sex.

Having said that- am I still going to finish the series?
Yeah most likely.

Good book. Hideous voice

I'm sorry, I just couldn't listen to the narrators voice... Way too breathy and emo

Cannot wait to get the next one started l

I enjoyed the start of this book then struggled to keep myself interested as I had been. I love these books but I found there was just so much sex in this one, pretty much every chapter had some in and I got a bit bored but it didn’t last long be dude once each time they finished something interesting would proceed with the story line and have me hooked again. The ending was fantastic with the cliff hanger ready for the next book and I cannot wait to see how they work fair in all this. The narrator does a brilliant job with the different voices, makes it so easy differentiate each character in the books.

Incredible story

The story continues so well but there is just an excessive about of smut mixed in that is just boring and repetitive.
The story line itself is great but I really hope the next one dials back the boring sex scenes.
