When looking for books on NetGalley, I'm always searching for new-to-me authors. Sandra Kitt's Finders Keepers fit that criteria. I did not realize it was the third book in a series, but it did not impact my understanding of the story. I appreciated that the author tackled some heavy topics that would be reasonable for an interracial relationship. She also pulled in, and questioned the veracity of, a lot of stereotypes. It felt like there were some pacing issues, and there was no "one" central conflict. I am also not a fan of on-page sex where there is no oral. At all. That is kind of a deal breaker for me. Overall, it was a sweet story about adults in love.

Ultimately, I enjoyed this book. I felt like the author struggled some in the beginning to really nail the worldbuilding aspect, and the pacing seemed a bit sluggish at times. However, she pulled it off, and I shed some sad and happy tears by the end. Overall, it is a solid story and nice journey into an alternate Hades/Persephone retelling.
