Publisher's Summary

"A dark, lush retelling of the Persephone myth as only Kitty Thomas could tell it.” (Anna Zaires, New York Times best-selling author)

When Persephone was born, Zeus received a troubling prophecy. Some day his beautiful, innocent daughter would be taken captive by Hades, the dark god of the underworld. Determined to protect her, her father hid her away in the human world where she would be shielded from her fate.

Hades learned of this betrayal nine centuries ago. He’s been searching for his destined queen ever since. And when he finds her, no power on earth or below it will stop him.

He will take her. He will corrupt her. And Zeus will suffer for daring to keep her from him.

definition of Stockholm syndrome

I struggled to get through this, the voice acting was good but the storyline... not so much. very Stockholm syndrome with kinks thrown in. Persephone is a pushover who falls into a bad mental state whenever her man isn't around and is generally cringy with her constant pining over her captor even when he mistreats her.
Would not read again.
