A Touch of Darkness

I read this series in spring of this year I loved it so much all of the sequels-I didn’t get through the Hades POV- but I loved the entirety of this series and 100% recommend!

Such a captivating and beautiful rendition of the classic tale of Hades and Persephone. Spicy slow burn that has you begging for more.

I found this book to be one (of only a few I love) of the best retelling of the Greek mythology God and Goddess Hades and Persephone. I enjoy that the setting of the story takes on a modern day 21st century Athens with the Gods living besides the humans. They are regarded as like modern day celebrities but still recognized as powerful gods. Scarlett St. Clair does amazing in fleshing out the other characters in the book that are also Gods, Goddesses, Demigods, mythical creatures, etc from Greek Mythology and human original characters. The closes thing I can compare this is to Lore Olympus by Rachel Smythe in the way story universe is structured but still different. Also, when I say this book is spicy it's very SPICY! There's several hot and heavy scenes throughout the book of Persephone and Hades that had me looking over my shoulder to see if anyone was around. Really recommend it to my steamy romance readers who also enjoy retelling of Greek Mythology. It was so addicting from start to finished that I read the entire series in 3 days (even the Hades POV book).
