Goodreads...
I've been kidnapped by Zeus. Plucked from the streets of Manhattan and frightened half to death by a freaking Olympian god.
And now I'm trapped in the Underworld, being forced to compete in a series of deadly trials for the position of Queen of the Underworld. Which would mean marrying Hades, the utterly terrifying Lord of the Dead. Who the hell wants a husband at all, let alone one made of smoke and riddled with death?
I have to get back home, to New York and my brother. But I can't leave without completing the trials and they've been designed for a godly Queen, not Persephone - barista and botanical garden enthusiast.
I'm surrounded by lethal, all-powerful maniacs. Sexy-as-hell maniacs, sure, but as dangerous as they come. And I'm going to have to prove to all of them that there's a goddess of hell inside me. It's the only way I'll survive the Hades Trials. But then what? And why, why, why am I so desperate to see under Hades smoky exterior and find out what he's hiding from me?
If I win the trials, I have to marry the devil himself. But losing might mean losing my life.
The Power of Hades is book 1 in the Hades Trials, which is intended for adults and is packed with magic, mythology and slow-burn romance!
My take...
THE POWER OF HADES was absolutely fantastic...better than I could ever imagine. I’m not fluent by any means in Greek God literature or mythology, but I quickly fell in love with the story and the history concerning all the characters. I flew through the book and loved all the twists and turns that kept revealing themselves throughout the story. And the romance was perfectly done, giving into an incredible slow burn. These are new to me authors but it was such a fabulous book I plan on continuing the series as soon as I finish this review. And I will even have to check out their other works. 5 Stars! |
