Persephone thinks she is a normal girl. Mostly. She has this weird sensation that someone is watching her. And when she is almost abducted, her suspicions are confirmed. Luckily, Hades enters the scene and saves the day by whisking Persephone off to the Underworld and making her his bride. But the story just begins here.I really liked the concept behind this book. I love new spins on old stories, so this was right up my alley. The plot moved along at a nice pace, and I found Ms. Bevis' Underworld to be quite intriguing. It was just like life on earth, but with more conveniences and less drama.This book and the series have a lot of potential. I am interested to see where the story goes in the next installment. Some parts of the story could have been developed more, and there were some moments that fell flat for me. The romance was clean, which made me happy. There is some language, but there isn't much by way of violence.All in all, a nice YA book that is good for a couple hours of entertainment.Content: A small amount of language
