Katee Robert continues to deliver the goods.
Fans of her Wicked Villains series will feel at home in this new Dark Olympus series.
Persephone is all that is sunshine and light as she sails though Upper Olympus on her mother’s coattails biding her time until she can escape. She has her sights set outside of Olympus and nothing short an act of god will keep her there… so when she is forced into an engagement with Olympia’s highest reigning deity, Zeus, she decides she needs to escape now.
On the other side of the River Styx in Lower Olympus, Hades is king. He leads his people in their shadowy realm and waits for the day that he can stake his revenge on Zeus for destroying his family…
When Persephone runs straight into his arms they discover that they can be the solution to each others needs. Hades will protect Persephone until she is able to leave Olympus after her 25th birthday and she will be the instrument of Hades revenge on Zeus. To achieve these goals they embark on a fake relationship out in the public eye that soon becomes very real indeed!
I liked Persephone and Hades. Both characters portrayed what was expected of them in the public eye, but behind closed doors our little miss sunshine was a real vixen and our dark and brooding hero was a real teddy bear!
The dual narration of this book was well done and captured the spirit of the characters. The male and female narrators complemented each other well and their transitions were smooth with the utilization of character titles. I enjoyed listening to their reading and would listen to more of their work
Overall this was a good start to a sinfully delicious series!
