About this listen

Persephone is the Goddess of Spring by title only. The truth is, since she was a little girl, flowers have shriveled at her touch. After moving to New Athens, she hopes to lead an unassuming life disguised as a mortal journalist.

Hades, God of the Dead, has built a gambling empire in the mortal world and his favorite bets are rumored to be impossible.

After a chance encounter with Hades, Persephone finds herself in a contract with the God of the Dead and the terms are impossible: Persephone must create life in the Underworld or lose her freedom forever.

The bet does more than expose Persephone's failure as a goddess, however. As she struggles to sow the seeds of her freedom, love for the God of the Dead grows - and it's forbidden.

Contains mature themes.

I really enjoyed this book! It's a great upbeat, story that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Also there are at least 4 great "hot" scenes that are jaw dropping! I think I'm going to look up other books by this Author!

Hot Hot Hot!!

I wasn't sure if I would like this book going in but I got completely hooked. now I'm on to the second. I have always loved Greek mythology and the way the author brings these gods to life is addictive. cannot wait to read more from her.

amazing 👏

The story was adorable, I absolutely adore both the main characters which is rare for me to like both. This was also the very first audiobook narration that I fully enjoyed. All her voices for the characters were lovely. Even Haedes voice she did well! My only disappointment is the rest of the audiobooks aren’t free lol.

Loved this book

I honestly had no idea what to expect but I loved it! Definitely made my jaw drop a few times. I actually listened to the whole thing non-stop because it was so good!

First of all this is a sexy book with a plot line retelling the classic Hades x Persephone story. I really love the characters, even though Hades is, to me, a little bit flat in terms of personality, but still definitely hot. I’m not even finished the book yet and it’s a 5 star review for me already. I can’t wait to read the second book. Also the narrator does a fantastic job!
