Publisher's Summary

A Touch of Darkness from Hades' POV (with new scenes)!

Hades, god of the underworld, is known for his inflexible rule, luxurious night clubs, and impossible bargains. Used to control, he is not prepared to discover the Fates have chosen his future wife and queen - Persephone, goddess of spring.

Despite her attraction to the god, Persephone, an ambitious journalism student, is determined to expose Hades for his cruel and ruthless ways.

Hades finds himself faced with the impossible - proving his future bride wrong. Regardless of his efforts, there are forces who wish to keep the two apart, and Hades comes to realize he will do anything for his forbidden love, even defy fate.

Contains mature themes.

Pretty good

Story wise I enjoyed this story from Hades perspective, although It took me a while to get used to the narrator's voice. Especially when he did female voices!
But overall still enjoyable.

Little repetitive but good

Good narration. Interesting story from the other point of view. A little bit repetitive but had some new story points that I enjoyed. Overall worth the listen.

H&P Bodice ripper 2.0

The first book written from the perspective of Hades. I think the author has some kind of penis envy cause she talks a lot about Hades cock 😂. I preferred a touch of darkness purely as from Hades point of view it was focused a lot on how much he wanted to f**K Persphone all the time. I did enjoy the additional subplots - what the god got up to in his own time when Sephy wasn't around.

I have always had a soft spot for Hades

I have always loved the stories of Hades and Persephone and this one doesnt disappoint. The interactions and real emotions of not being enough or worthy from Hades perspective is another layer to how the greek gods were overlooked in the real world. Having true feelings is above the goods but in actual fact they feel all manners of emotions and hurt just like mortals. I look forward to listening to their tale further.

Good read

if you've listened to the Hades and Persephone books first then listening to this can be quite frustrating as the narrator reads some of the names or places differently to the other three books. otherwise it was a good book with a new layer being added to their story

Robotic narration.

I loved a touch of darkness so it made me want to listen to this one too. The narrator helped with that, she kept me engaged the whole way through. I tried to make it through this one, however, the narrator is terrible and robotic, with pauses where there shouldn't be and disjointed "he said" at the end of sentences etc, bored me to bits. Looks like I'll be sticking to Persephone's side of the story only if I'm going to listen to it.
