I read this series so long ago and loved it! I think it's a great retelling of the Persephone myth. Plus I really loved that Nikki wasn't like most of the typical YA heroines. She's not afraid to get s**t done, which was so refreshing. She didn't rely on anyone else.

I totally agree, I loved how the author wrote the myth but spiced it up and I really loved Cole as a character

This book follows Nikki, who gave up her life on earth because of a broken heart, after a century of being locked up in the everneath,the underworld. She finally is allowed to spend 6 months to try and live her her life on earth and maybe reconnect with her boyfriend jack but there is also Cole, the boy who she spent a century with in the everneath and who cares about her deeply.
This book is on one my favrouite books ever! Persephone and Hades is my favrouite myth and for someone that studies classics, this twist on the tale was beautifully written.
I loved how Brodi Ashton wrote the flashback and then the flash forwards.
CHARACTERS-
Nikki is a very strong female protagonist, she knows what she wants and she goes out and gets it.
You really see her descions show who she is as a person.
Jack is my least favrouite character, I think in this book he dragged Nikki down. A lot of people adore jack in this book and I can understand why but he definitely not for me.
Cole is the most amazing character in this book, in my opinion and he will always be my favrouite. Cole honestly loves Nikki, and you could totally see that throughout the book. He would do anything for her and you see that by his speech and his actions.
ROMANCE-
So everyone ships Jack and Nikki, but here I am Team Cole and Nikki.
Jack isn't good for Nikki, like he drags her down and she has to make her descions based around him.
With Cole though, she has a witty strong relationship and you could really engage with them.
WRITING-
The whole story was well-written and the mythology aspect was amazing.
This is such an under appreciated book and that really upsets me.
