Publisher's summary

The Gods are back in town.

Well, to be precise, they never left.

Just because people stopped believing in them, didn't make them disappear, and Hades, Apollo, Ares, Poseidon, and Zeus are all as about town as they ever were. They just have different names.

Ziel Dearil is the God of the dead and the King of the Underworld. With his guardians at his side, demi-god Orpheus, and hero Icarus, he's been ruling his rather boring realm with an iron fist since time began.

Then, everything changes when Cressida Jonas walks into their world.

When Hades informs the multi platinum-selling, multi award-winning singer that she's his wife, any normal woman might have run screaming for the hills. Cressida, on the other hand, sees this as an opportunity to get revenge on the man who wronged her 18 months ago.

Falling for three guys was never a part of the program, just vengeance, but of course, the Fates have a way of messing with the best laid plans.

See what they have in store for Cressida, Hades, Icarus, and Orpheus in Hotter than Hades!

Enjoyed this one!

I always love a good Mythology story and I love Serena Akeroyd's books, so I jumped on a chance to listen review this one. It didn't disappoint! Hades has always been one of my favorites when it comes to Greek myths. Add him in with two other familiar characters we know from the same myths (whose names won't be mentioned because spoilers!) and you get a wicked good time. Cressida was a wonderful lead and I enjoyed her journey in gaining her confidence and sense of self again. And I LOVED her style of revenge. You'll have to read it to find out!

Better than 5 Stars!

WOW! What a hot and emotional story! I didn’t want it to end. Kai Kennicott was absolutely fantastic narrating it! She put so much emotions into every word. I felt like I was watching it in person.

nothing wrong, but nothing spectacular

all likeable characters, well developed. interesting world. the plot just lacked luster, making it a slow moving book, certainly no excitement.

Two thumbs way up!

Hades, Christian and Nash all together in one story? Hot! Working through all the highs and lows? Epic And my favorite scene I can't mention because of spoilers, but karma really is a b!tc..... I loved this so much! Eager for Ella's story now.

Hot! Hot! Hot!

This was such an imaginative take on the Greek gods of old, bringing them into contemporary times and reimagining their relationships with friends, lovers, and each other. This new world Serena Akeroyd has created is rich, sexy, and fun!

Loved Orpheus (aka Nash), Icarus (aka Christian), and, of course, Hades. Each one was smart, sensual, and passionate. Nash was sensitive, Christian was comforting, and Hades was powerful. Loved Cressida too. She was sweet and sassy. I enjoyed how she accepted her new circumstances but still took her time to get to know each of her guys. And I loved Ella too.

The narration was top-notch. Kai did a great job bringing all the characters to life. So looking forward to The Sun Revolves Around Apollo and continuing this journey into a new era for the Greek gods we love.

Fantastic!

Oh my goodness this book! I absolutely loved it when I read it and the audio just enhances that enjoyment of it. The narrator is fantastic and I love how she brings this world to life. I can't wait to listen to book two.

Hotter than Hades

This book has so much depth in the pain and recovery after such a tragic incident. To see her move past this as well as find some amazing men to help makes for a great listen. Although this is part of a series, the book does give you a happy for now ending, but I’m still excited to listen to the next!
