anabel_unker 's review for:
The Temple of Persephone
by Isabella Kamal
*I received a copy of this book on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for this opportunity*
THE TEMPLE OF PERSEPHONE is a charming, light historical romance that combines some of the best elements of Classic Mythology and Regency-era Romances. It's passionate (read: spicy) while never delving too deeply into larger issues, meaning it was a quick little audiobook listen that didn't require too much thought.
Like other reviewers here, I was certainly confused about the character's reactions to Aidon's secret, and felt like Kamal leaned too heavily on it to cause some final act strife.
Overall, PERSEPHONE was a solid, and enthusiastic, start as Kamal's historical debut.

and I would have probably enjoyed it more if instead of "rebranding" his funeral services for illegitimate children, Persephone and Aidon had created their own little Elysium for the cast aside childrenOverall, PERSEPHONE was a solid, and enthusiastic, start as Kamal's historical debut.
