Scarlett St.  Clair

  Relația dintre Persefona și Hades a devenit publică, presa vuiește, iar pericolul de a fi dată în vileag drept Zeița Primăverii pândește la tot pasul. Ca și cum nu ar fi suficient, cunoscuții par dornici să o avertizeze pe Persefona în privința Zeului Morților, expunându-i trecutul care abundă în ticăloșii.

  Lucrurile se înrăutățesc și mai mult atunci când se petrece o tragedie inimaginabilă, Persefona se alege cu inima frântă, iar Hades refuză să o ajute. Disperată, zeița ia lucrurile în propriile mâini, făcând târguri care atrag consecințe grave. Confruntându-se cu o latură a Zeului Morților pe care nu a cunoscut-o niciodată, dar și cu o pierdere zdrobitoare, Persefona se întreabă dacă poate deveni cu adevărat regina lui Hades.

Un strop de distrugere

Scarlett St. Clair

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. Hades, God of the Dead, is burdened by a hellish past that everyone's eager to expose in an effort to warn Persephone away. Things only get worse when a horrible tragedy leaves Persephone's heart in ruin and Hades refusing to help.

Faced with a side of Hades she never knew and crushing loss, Persephone wonders if she can truly become Hades' queen.

A Touch of Ruin

Gabriela Kondratyuk

She wasn't sure it was possible: she could already feel him in the bottom of her stomach

Mari🦇 🤎🗡️

"I love you. Even if the Fates unraveled our destiny, I would find a way back to you," Hades said.

The god rose from his throne, illuminated completely by the red light. He looked horrified and deadly and moved toward her with predatory grace.

This quote made me think of my best friend 😩

There was something relaxing about baking. Maybe she liked it so much because it felt like alchemy, measuring each ingredient to perfection, creating something that would bewitch the senses.

"We cannot all be good, but if we must be bad, it should serve a purpose."

"Darling, I would burn this world for you." 

I get why he did it but at the same time I don't😶 She's a goddess so I'm assuming she can't just die and even if that's her mess and not his... he has no right and it gives Tamlin vibes😐

Sophia

As he went to close the door behind him, she called out in a cracked voice, "You will regret this!"

"I already do," he said, and there was a note to his voice that sounded like grief.

 that he keeps deflecting Persephone's demands and questions by kissing/f*cking her😶 Can he answer for ONCE?? He is hurt that she doesn't trust him completely but refuses to tell her anything😐 Penelope is better than me because I would be 

"I want to know you - all of you, from the inside out."

He offered a small smile and cupped her face, the pad of his thumb brushing her lips.

"Let's start with the inside," he said and their mouths collided, his tongue twined with hers.

"Has anyone ever told you're not helpful?"

"No, not really. I mean, I am the Messanger of the Gods and all."

"Oh, darling. You don't need to extract an oath. Nothing will keep me from fucking you."

Persephone literally made every situation 10X WORSE  

Alexandra Rodriguez

Very good book. Persephone was just so annoying throughout 

Katie Roberts

The dynamic between Persephone & Hades continues to be great, but Persephone’s unwillingness to listen to the advice of others is so frustrating in this one! She just keeps compounding her problems until it all comes to a head. Beautiful resolutions to her biggest mistakes though. 

Kristen Savage

Kellie Davis

This would be so much better if Persephone just got it together 🫠 girl was annoying and hypocritical. The fact that Helen begged to going her?? Like girl I feel like she was more mean to Helen than nice 😭 please let a touch of malice be better because then I just won’t read a touch of chaos 😭

It was so hard to put this book down. It’s such a compulsive read.

Samantha Huster

I'm going to take the unpopular opinion and say I liked this one more than the first one. I sort of enjoyed seeing all these characters navagate new roles. Persephone struggled with her new fame. Hades "won" the girl but now he has to figure out how to be in a relationship. And Lexa...well I won't spoil that. Was I frustrated with the behaviors of some of these characters? Yes. But it also felt like realistic reactions of people who are overwhelmed and emotionally driven.

The second in the captivating Hades and Persephone series from fan-favorite bestselling author Scarlett St. Clair. "Are you saying you wouldn't fight for me?" Hades sighed and brushed his finger along her cheek. "Darling, I would burn this world for you." 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. To add to her troubles, everyone seems eager to warn Persephone away from the God of the Dead by exposing his hellish past. Things only get worse when a horrible tragedy leaves Persephone's heart in ruin and Hades refusing to help. Desperate, she takes matters into her own hands, striking bargains that lead to severe consequences. Faced with a side of Hades she never knew, and crushing loss, Persephone wonders if she can truly become Hades's queen.

Book 2

A good follow up to A Touch Of Darkness. I’m going to say, once again, someone needs a better proofreader. And there was a bit too much of Persephone waffling back and forth with the trust issues. Like every time they got settled whatever conflict, another arose with the same behaviors, same response, same conclusions. Once , even twice, would be enough for growth and learning, but I lost count of the number of times it happened. This all aside, the direction of the story was good and built on the first nicely. A solid series in the making.

Alissa Maloney

Hades and Persephone together are just **chef's kiss**. I didn't enjoy this book as much as the first, because I just enjoy them coming together and being together more. The complex emotions in this book really make you think, though. I genuinely enjoyed the different perspectives on the afterlife, and rules the gods follow, morally gray areas and struggles of both the mortals and the gods.

 **spoilerish**
I wish there hadn't been so much miscommunication as the focus in this book. I know it's important that couples (both mortal and gods) learn their love languages together and certain strengths of each relationship, but it felt like miscommunication after miscommunication and miscommunication... that being said when they do work well together, they are magic. 🤌🤌🤌

Das erste hatte einen guten Aufhänger. Jetzt bin ich sauer, dass ich meine Zeit und mein Geld bereits mit dem zweiten Teil verschwendet habe. Das dritte wird ein No Read für mich.

Ich hatte bereits in einer anderen Rezension gelesen, dass es schlecht geschrieben ist, Handlungs- und Logikfehler aufweist, aber dennoch wollte ich es lesen. Die Geschichte klang gut und ich mag die griechische Mythologie. 

Leider wurde ich auf ganzer Linie enttäuscht. Es hätte gut sein können, hätte sich mal jemand die echte Mühe gemacht und es überarbeitet. Sehr schade.

Persephone. Please grow some more brain cells

Not as good as the first one. Kinda dragged on..

This series has so much potential but page after page was a literal train wreck. I only finished this book because I started and didn’t want to DNF halfway. I won’t be reading the rest of the series. This honestly read as a bad fanfic that I would’ve written in 8th grade. It wasn’t really boring but there was just too much going on and piling up so fast, all the plots felt like they should’ve been explored more in depth rather than being solved within a few pages. I also can’t stand Persephone and how she’s portrayed as a rash and hot headed figure. I also cannot stand how much they fuck it’s literally overwhelming. At a certain point I just skipped over the smut because it was repetitive and irrelevant to the plot most of the time. I guess in a way I’m a fault because I excepted a amazing series that delved into a complex retelling of PersephonexHades, but I chose a smut book to fulfil that when I know these books are pretty much only written for p0rn and not for plot. No hate to the author, I’ve heard a lot of great things about this series which is why I picked it up, but to me it just wasn’t it!!

Kassandra Nordeste

Persephone, while a decently likeable character is so fucking infuriating that i wanted to rip my hair out while reading. Like girl how old are you, 15? Hades is literally perfect and obsessed with her and she’s like idk if he loves me. BFFR.  Every time i wanted to give up on this book my ~husband~ reeled me back in, and by the end she stopped pissing me off as much. Excited for what’s to come bc i need more fantasy elements 🫠

Taylor Arevalo

My heart broke with Lexa as I wasn't expecting that.

Tanisha Headley

Amazing! The emotions I felt reading this surprised me so much! I was angry, sad, and happy all at once! Can’t wait to start book #3 !

Oh my gosh, the smut is top tier. A real page turner for that alone. I also just really loved the character growth for Hades and Persephone. I can’t wait to start the next book of the series

Persephone’s attitude/character this entire book *throws up*

um 0 stars wtf? my bar is already so low? how are these books getting good ratings? storyline and characters aside... there are spelling, grammar, and formatting errors on every other page. she mixes up the characters' names... she spells her MAIN character's name wrong too? i read this one to see if maybe the second book actually got edited considering its massive popularity. like, did i get a defunct copy? this is literally unreadable. why am i being gaslit, gatekept, girlbossed by a book. 
i just want readable smut...pls. i am suffering. everyday i stray further from feyre's light.
