Description

Hades lifted her onto the table, stepped between her legs, and knelt as a servant would kneel to their queen. His refusal also forces her to take matters into her own hands and make a bargain that could broaden the growing divide between them. At that thought, the air became heavier, and she noticed Hades’ chest rose with a sharp inhaled as if he could sense the change in her thoughts. If Persephone had to guess, she’d say the Goddess of Witchcraft was probably cursing some mortal in the Upperworld for some heinous deed against women. Fuck,” he cursed, sitting up lightning-fast, he lessened his hold on her wrist, and drew her to him.

Gods had everything: wealth, power, immortality—their currency was the currency favors, which were, essentially, a contract, the details to be decided at a future time, and unavoidable. She considered leaving through the parking garage but didn’t like the possibility of being cornered by a bunch of strangers in a place that was dark and smelled like oil and piss.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. Persephone also knew that Sybil could see the Threads of Fate, which she had referred to as ‘colors’ when she’d told Persephone she and Hades were meant to be together. Persephone had a lot of questions about the Underworld from antiquity—it was that version that still had its claws in Hades, that version which made him feel ashamed, that version which made him feel unworthy of his peoples’ worship and praise. Hades’ was obliging and braced her against the nearest wall offering a vicious kiss before pulling away to growl in her ear. Meanwhile, her boss wants an exclusive on their relationship and she just learned that Sybil, her friend who is Apollo’s oracle, has been stripped of all power after refusing to sleep with the god.

Oh no, please,” she knelt before one of the souls—an older woman with short, white hair and paper-thin skin. Thanatos had been the first to offer her insight into Hades’ precarious role as the God of the Dead during a tour of Elysium.

Admirers of gods would do anything for a glimpse, a touch, a taste of the Divine and that included their significant others. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, business establishments, events, or locales is entirely coincidental.

It said that she was from Olympia, that she had started attending New Athens University four years ago, began with a major in botany and ended with a major in journalism. There were a bunch of subplots that I felt were left open, but probably not important enough to be resolved in the next book, and the fact that at one point, Helen was left in the lobby waiting for Persophne and then never mentioned again? Later, she would learn the dead in the river were ancient corpses who had come to the Underworld without coin to pay Charon’s toll.It amazed her that in one breath, they could talk about how much the Underworld had evolved, and yet still implement archaic practices.

Keeping this review non-spoiler was so difficult, especially due to the number of random small subplots sprinkled through the chaotic book (that’s right, I reckon my review and this whole book are both chaotic). Hermes ate it up, signing autographs and posing for pictures, all the while, Persephone crept along the walkway and entered the Acropolis unseen.As for me outing you, I’m not really interested in seeing anyone get hurt for their association with the gods. He’d recognized the stress she was under when it came to writing about Hades, and he’d told her she didn’t have to keep writing about him if she didn’t want to. Names, characters, places and incidents are either the product of the author’s imagination or are used fictitiously.
