Publisher's Summary

Cruel. Coldblooded. Hades in a Brioni suit.

Cillian Fitzpatrick has been dubbed every wicked thing on planet earth.

To the media, he is The Villain.

To me, he is the man who (reluctantly) saved my life.

Now I need him to do me another small solid.

Bail me out of the mess my husband got me into.

What’s a hundred grand to one of the wealthiest men in America, anyway?

Only Cillian doesn’t hand out free favors.

The price for the money, it turns out, is my freedom.

Now I’m the eldest Fitzpatrick brother’s little toy.

To play, to mold, to break.

Too bad Cillian forgot one tiny detail.

Persephone wasn’t only the goddess of spring; she was also the queen of death.

He thinks I’ll buckle under the weight of his mind games.

He is about to find out the most lethal poison is also the sweetest.

The worst thing I did was

The worst thing I did was start this book after dinner - I couldn’t stop listening ! So when the clock read 5 am and I was suppose to be getting up for work I almost called in sick. LOVED IT - the characters, the story and the performances are excellent. Think I’ll start it again but not on a work night.

Great Book!

I am in love with these narrators, Jacob Morgan is so talented, I have listened to quiet a few books of his now and his range of characters amazes me. like the monster, I feel like the ending became rushed. I felt like there wasn't enough grovelling done.
well narrated, well written, great love story.

Might be even better than book 1

I didn't see how I was going to be able to warm to Cillian as a main character let alone end up loving him even more than Hunter, but here we are.
I really enjoyed this book, probably a little more than book one of Boston Belles.
Would recommend to those who are interested in a nice, easy but captivating book.

Hades x Persephone themes

He’s the “Devil” — youngest billionaire in history and single. Media has a label for him but can’t remember. And her name is literally Persephone and she is actually the sweetest person. She’s loved him for years, unrequited. Or was it? It’s has Hades x Persephone themes but is not a retelling, which I really enjoyed because it was original. And who doesn’t love a good girl x bad guy vibe?
Of all the books in this series, this one is by far my favourite. I’ve been reading them chronologically and this one’s the best. The voice actor and actress are really good. Im glad I listened to this rather than read it.

Best romance I've read in ages

Urgg my heart! Such a perfect story and great performances. The characters were full of depth and without cliches, and I really believed their development. Super entertaining, couldn't stop listening until 4am. Loved The Hunter, but love this one waaay more. Cill has been dumped on my heart and I'll never let go.
