About this listen
"A dark, lush retelling of the Persephone myth as only Kitty Thomas could tell it.” (Anna Zaires, New York Times best-selling author)
When Persephone was born, Zeus received a troubling prophecy. Some day his beautiful, innocent daughter would be taken captive by Hades, the dark god of the underworld. Determined to protect her, her father hid her away in the human world where she would be shielded from her fate.
Hades learned of this betrayal nine centuries ago. He’s been searching for his destined queen ever since. And when he finds her, no power on earth or below it will stop him.
He will take her. He will corrupt her. And Zeus will suffer for daring to keep her from him.

I didn’t know I was a captive. How could I? I didn’t have my memory. He could have told me anything about the world, and he did. And I believed him. Until the day a mysterious stranger showed up, killed the man I’d believed was my husband, and decided to take me with him. I don’t know what he plans to do with me, but it can’t be anything good. But hey, at least the world still exists.

She no longer believes it’s possible to find a man who will be gentle with her. After seeing a kink-friendly therapist for months, the doctor makes her an illicit offer she isn’t yet smart enough to refuse: “Let me find you a good master.” Brian Sloan is a borderline sociopath with a dark and brutal past.

I have a special power, the ability to calm a berserker, but I’ve been warned never to use it. My mother said, “If you see a berserker in a rage…not your monkeys, not your circus. Get the hell away. They’re too dangerous, and you’ll lose your freedom.” But the thing is…we’re flying 30,000 feet in the air in a speeding aluminum cage, and there’s a berserker raging out in the aisle beside me. Security won’t be able to hold him. And if he gets a taste of blood, he’s going to rampage through the entire plane, leaving a path of death and destruction, including me.

When I can't take pack life any longer, I run, but apparently they don't like losing their punching bag. Torin, the leader’s son, drags me back before my first shift...a shift that will reveal my true mate. I never could have predicted who mine would be, but the moment my wolf looks upon him, I’m filled with hope for a brighter future.

On the run from ruthless killers, I take a job at a remote mountain estate tutoring a little boy. It's the ideal shelter from the storm that has engulfed my life, but there is a catch. The boy's father is the most beautiful, most dangerous man I've ever met. Darkly seductive and filthy rich, Nikolai Molotov is as magnetic as he is enigmatic. Bruised knuckles and tailored suits, tender endearments and dirty promises—everything about my new employer draws me in, even as my instincts warn that my safe haven just might be the devil's lair. My protector may turn out to be my captor.

Chosen from birth to usher in a new era, Poppy’s life has never been her own. The life of the Maiden is solitary. Never to be touched. Never to be looked upon. Never to be spoken to. Never to experience pleasure. Waiting for the day of her Ascension, she would rather be with the guards, fighting back the evil that took her family, than preparing to be found worthy by the gods. But the choice has never been hers. The entire kingdom’s future rests on Poppy’s shoulders, something she’s not even quite sure she wants for herself. Because a Maiden has a heart. And a soul. And longing.

Fae exist only in children’s stories, or so I thought. That was before a nightmarish creature of the Fae Realm dropped into my life. He claimed a seven-pointed mark on my skin signified my magical lineage, the bit of DNA my mother passed down. Days after I arrive in the Fae Realm, I’m thrown into a series of trials titled ‘The Devotion’. I must compete with demons, vampires, elves and more who want to claim their place at the future King’s side. I have no interest in this guy, but it doesn’t help that the King-to-be is a gorgeous, brooding fae.

A prince of his people with a duty so deeply ingrained, it’s hard to see where it ends and he begins.

Story
The devil’s in the details, and I shouldn’t be surprised to find hell in Las Vegas. Luke doesn’t care that I can’t remember a thing about the deal we made on the night of my bachelorette party. All he cares is that I promised my love, my life, and my obedience to him for all eternity. Obedience? Not my style. I’m not looking to be owned by any man. To make matters worse, I was supposed to be marrying another. But Adam can’t stand against Luke’s strength.

Perfect!!!
I loved reading Persephone when it came out. But listening to Gregory Salinas narrate this story to me takes it to a whole other level. He was absolutely perfect, first and foremost, in how he captures Hades and how you just completely get lost in hearing him tell you the tale of the God of the Underworld finding his Goddess of Spring. Even when he is reading as Persephone it just works. This is just a perfect, and freakin hot, listen. A must have!!!

Great Performance to a Subpar Book
The synopsis for ‘Persephone’ is right up my alley, unfortunately the end result was disappointing. Reading a Kitty Thomas book is usually a guaranteed great time for me. In fact, the only reason I have not read all of her books is because I like to save and space out the fun. I did not feel that way with this book. It was not that it was bad as much as it lack substance. I did not feel any depth from the characters or their relationship. Persephone especially fell flat, and seemed pretty dim. The whole plot was very basic, and the conflicts minor and not very intriguing. The sexual aspects also did nothing for me, seeming somewhat tagged on for dark erotica. Overall I hate being negative about an author I admire, but this has been my least entertaining Kitty Thomas experience thus far.
On a positive note, the actor, Gregory Salinas, was wonderful. I really enjoyed his performance as a whole and thought he fit the tone perfectly.

Hot kinky myth!
Believe me this is not the high school version of this myth! Kitty Thomas and Gregory Salinas have given us an audible book that will melt your panties off. Take a god and goddess that are total opposites sexually and be prepared for one rollercoaster ride of sexual awakening. Persephone surprised me by how much she is into this kinky world of sexual pleasures. I wish my home could do what hers does for her. Maybe even Hades will feel love instead of just desire. If you like very kinky love stories, I highly recommend this Audible book. The narrator makes this book even sexier. Kitty Thomas has written a book that will hold your attention the whole time.

good storyline
This story intrigued me but took me way to long to get through, as the contest was a bit much .Overall it was a good storyline , Hades wanting to find love ,kidnapping Zeus's daughter for revenge. The last few chapters were really good.

A classic dark story given fresh life
Persephone is by far my favorite Greek myth and in my top five favorite stories in general of all time, and Kitty Thomas is my favorite dark romance author, so I was beyond excited when I read that she was recreating this classic story in her own voice. I had already read the ebook, but listening to it with the narrator she chose was a completely different experience in the best way. Hades is as dark and tortured as you could want him to be. Persephone slowly develops a quiet strength as she becomes who she was meant to be—a goddess who has the power to find life and healing in a death, broken thing. Gregory Salinas did a great job of capturing the emotional depth of each character and helping me get lost in the story in a new way, and I’d definitely love to hear more from him.

READ THIS BOOK
Not for the vanilla people out there. If you can’t handle some BDSM then this is not a book for you. THIS BOOK WAS GREAT. I want another one honestly. The narrator was perfect.

Persephone
Persephone is a standalone Fantasy, Mythologic retelling, Paranormal and Dark Romance. This is a review for the eBook as well as the audible book. Narrated by Gregory Salinas.
I loved the story, I loved the narrator, I loved everything about this book! Kitty Thomas I WANT more, please!
I have not heard this narrator before but let me tell you he helped make this book! Not that this book wasn’t already great but when he started whispering words in my ears I was a goner. Perfection! 5+ STARS

Sexy, Hot, Dark, Steamy Retelling of a classic
Kitty Thomas writes dark romance and this mythological modern retelling of Hades and Persephone is at the top of her game. Gregory Salinas narrates the book beautifully. His voice projects and changes with each character in just the right way. Hades is beyond Dark and Sexy. Persephone never stood a chance against his pull! Looking forward to more of Kitty's books coming to audio book.
