Well, what can I say? I really like that this Hades matches my own idea of him just doing a job and not really relishing it. After all, evil doesn't punish evil, right?
And this Hades is beaten down and suffering. Understandable when his long-term wife's left him and everyone has always told him how worthless he is.
But of course, as any good romance would have, there is a heroine who can save our tortured hero. And she's her own kind of hot mess.
The steam takes a long time to build, but one is rewarded with a fiery scene worthy of the wait.
I'll be honest; I wasn't expecting so much sweet and tame given the God of the Underworld is involved. But it was a nice surprise. Just not quite as hot as hell.
I would have liked more of the Underworld. More danger. More adjusting.
The Dirty Dancing and 80s music bits were fun.
Hades as Sawyer from Lost was quite pleasing too (*innocently whistles*).
A fun story that Greek mythology retelling lovers will enjoy.
Always in love and light,
TL
