I'm so glad I was able to hunt down a copy as it turned out to be as lovely as I had hoped. Fraught with emotion, I couldn't help but be affected by the couple's problems; Persephone's separation from her family, she being their mother figure; and Adam's, the cold and damaged Duke of Kielder, as he ventured painfully into the land of feelings. How wonderful to see them come together, so fascinated with one another yet not quite knowing how to handle their growing attachment. And the unexpected danger that pops up not only was an intriguing turn, but it also acted as a revelation for both of them. It's really quite lovely and tender how their relationship blossomed and satisfying for the romantic heart and anyone else who delights in the Hades/Persephone and Beauty/Beast tales. I must find out what happens to the other family members. 4 stars.
