Chargement... The Maiden & the Unseen (édition 2023)par Alexis Rune (Auteur)
Information sur l'oeuvreThe Maiden & The Unseen par Jeanette Rose (Author)
   Aucun Actuellement, il n'y a pas de discussions au sujet de ce livre.   ) LilyRoseShadowlyn | Apr 13, 2024 |  It started out with promise, and I was looking forward to a good Hades/Persephone story, but it's definitely one spice book that would have benefitted from a slower burn, the characters also make some choices that make no sense. I find it a bit had sympathizing with Persephone when we learn she's pretty much strung along this guy for a year without having any real feelings for him, and then continues to do so when things heat up with Hades, before finally getting out of that relationship. When they finally do get together it turns really angsty, but instead of having an actual conversation they just have sex. I don't have a problem with spicy books, but there were sections were it almost felt like the authors were more interested in getting to the next sex scene than actually driving a plot forward. I wasn't expecting it to end of a cliffhanger, as the story seemed pretty self contained at the start. I am wondering what the next book will be like though. I liked the friends that were introduced and would have liked some more of them in the book, especially Helios and Mellie. I did also enjoy the initial banter between Hades and Persephone, and the friendship that was developing between Persephone and Mellie. So in short if you're favourite thing is spice it's def worth your time, if you need a more plot driven story you might wanna give this one a pass.

Appartient à la sérieLove and Fate (1)
God of the Dead. King of the Underworld. The Unseen. The Renowned?The Glorified Babysitter.Zeus has finally decreed that the gods may leave Olympus and mingle - anonymously - with the mortals of the present. With zero warning or waiting for him to consent to this arrangement, Hades is placed in charge of not only helping the gods assimilate but also financing them. Unlike the other gods, Hades never withdrew from the mortal world. Instead he spent six months of every year among them, building a fortune befitting one of his many names. As long as the gods follow his strict rules for living among mortals, they have access to a generous monthly stipend. Break the rules, lose the privileges. No allowances. Ever. Goddess of Spring. The Maiden. The Mistress. The Venerable One?The Social Media Manager. For the last two years, Persephone has lived among the mortals, enjoying everything the world she was so sheltered from has to offer. It took years of begging since Zeus's decree to get her mother to allow her to go, and she imparted some strict rules to follow. Rule 1: No fraternizing with other gods. As far as Demeter is aware, Persephone's next door neighbor is definitely not Helios, the Titan of the Sun. Rule 2 : No men. The mortal she's casually dating doesn't even know the gods exist. Rule 3: Every six months, come home for a visit or be forced home. This one she can't get out of, and if it keeps her mother from investigating Persephone's life, what's the harm in a visit? Destiny. Fate. Fortune. Kismet?An absolute bitch. Fate has other ideas for Hades and Persephone, and it does not take lightly to being denied. Struggle and fight all they want. But the threads of destiny have wrapped tightly around them and tugs them tighter and tighter, no matter what the gods themselves have to say about it.
