A Touch of Malice (Hades & Persephone, #3)

by Scarlett St. Clair

The next installment in the Hades and Persephone story from bestselling author Scarlett St. Clair. Discover the world of New Athens and the Greek gods in a series that readers are calling "hopelessly addictive."

"I am not sure who you think I am," she said. "But let me be clear―I am Persephone, future Queen of the Underworld, Lady of Your Fate―may you come to dread my presence."

Persephone and Hades are engaged. In retaliation, Demeter summons a snowstorm that cripples New Greece, and refuses to lift the blizzard unless her daughter calls off her engagement. When the Olympians intervene, Persephone finds her future in the hands of ancient gods, and they are divided. Do they allow Persephone to marry Hades and go to war with Demeter, or prohibit their union and take up arms against the God of the Dead?

Nothing is certain but the promise of war.

Alright- so I struggled with this one. For the most part again it’s really focuses on Hades and Sephys relationship. As well as Sephy learning to train her magic and get past her trauma. This book is very spicy FYI! Overall it’s a fun read! The last half of the book the plot really charges ahead and we get all the good stuff. I did find myself annoyed that Persephone and Demeter didn’t face off until the very end of the book. But overall I still love it! There’s a huge cliff hanger in the end and she sets up for another book. Will definitely read that one as well.
