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.

Super thin plot. P is so dumb and annoying. Ugh. Can’t be bothered reading next one (I probably will).

So bored

I enjoyed the sequel in the way it rounded out the original book, included more gods/esses and made a nice visual for the community surrounding. A few PerHades scenes could have been chosen to appear more selected (after some traumatic scenes, they seemed misplaced). Persephone’s control and exploration of power would have been a better storyline than the Janitor/Maintenance man but overall, it was enjoyable and looking forward to book 3.

A nice sequel

The book was well written, of course the raunchy bits were great but so is the love aspect too. I hope there’s going to be more as I just binge listened to both books in this series and can’t wait!
The narrator made this audio book for me, she so perfectly feels what the characters are feeling which entangles you more in the story.

Great story line, even better story telling

Another great story I couldn’t put down. Love the narrator! Can’t wait to start the next book. I enjoyed the world building in this book and the character arcs too

Great listen

What a disappointing and irritating waste of time this was. Persephone was great in book 1 but is utterly infuriating in book 2, and everyone's backpedaling and hyper exaggerated emotional flip flopping.. no

Exhausting
