Promises And Pomegranates

Fue un regalo y me gusta

The book came in perfect brand new condition. I love the story itself, I find it’s the best retelling of the Hades and Persephone story, at least sticking to the actual kidnapping and forced marriage plot from the original story.

I started reading more dark romances recently and this is one of my favs till now!! This was my first book by the author and it has been on my tbr forever. I loved her writing – the plot with the mature scenes were *chef’s kiss*💋I was consumed by this book from the moment I started it ❤️‍🔥🥰Kal is an absolute delight. I am literally obsessed with this man. Some might say I need a therapist but who cares 😏Elena is definitely our little miss Persephone who brings the light but loves the darkness. She was totally consumed into the world of Kal – our misunderstood Hades, and she never wanted to get out of it.I loved how both the characters went through different transitions throughout the plot. This is one of my favorite things in any romance read!I can't wait to read more of Sav’s books and complete the whole series!I will definitely recommend this book 🥺💗If you are a fan of the above-mentioned tropes and looking for a book that includes lots and lots of spice with a not-so-typical love story, then this might be the perfect book for you 💗𝑹𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5𝑺𝒑𝒊𝒄𝒆: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️/5

This book is so good, I can't wait to read the second one!

After reading the prequel, Sweet Sin, (and devouring it) I was very excited to get into book #1 of the Monsters & Muses series. The prequel began an immense, deep-rooted relationship between Kal and Elena and we definitely got more than 'promised' in Promises and Pomegranates.There was so much tension in this book, I couldn't stop reading once I picked it up. The tension lay in both the strained relationships and in the plot. There was so much underlying pain between Kal and Elena's family, it was pretty emotional to read. I feel like the plot could have been developed more, for instance the kidnapping section. Also I would've enjoyed learning more about Kal's relationship with his sister but perhaps this is in a future book in the series?There is no doubt that some of the scenes between Kal and Elena were the spiciest I've ever read! This is a great read if you are into dark romance. This was helped by Miller's writing style, in particular her exaggerated, detailed descriptions which were rich and delectable. Vipers and Virtuosos has of course been added to my Kindle TBR and I'm excited to see what's next in store.4/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
