Persephone is the Goddess of Spring by title only. The truth is, since she was a little girl, flowers have shriveled at her touch. After moving to New Athens, she hopes to lead an unassuming life disguised as a mortal journalist.

Hades, God of the Dead, has built a gambling empire in the mortal world and his favorite bets are rumored to be impossible.

After a chance encounter with Hades, Persephone finds herself in a contract with the God of the Dead and the terms are impossible: Persephone must create life in the Underworld or lose her freedom forever.

The bet does more than expose Persephone’s failure as a Goddess, however. As she struggles to sow the seeds of her freedom, love for the God of the Dead grows—and it’s forbidden.

Nem se me pagassem eu leria isso de novo

Se você foi atrás de um reconto de Hades e Perséfone bem construído e coerente, então você não tá procurando esse livro.
Escrita fraca, roteiro manco, xoxo e capenga, e um desenvolvimento de personagens com a profundidade de uma poça d'água no sol de quarenta graus do Rio de Janeiro.
Numa briga entre piores adaptações do mito da Primavera, Lore Olympus e A Touch of Darkness são campeões.

Nem se me pagassem eu leria de novo, e eu prefiro beber vinagre a ler as continuações.
