For those of us who wished that it was Persephone who had all the power rather than Hades, we can rejoice in Sav Miller’s Promises and Pomegranates. A modern retelling of the well-known Greek figures, this novel pictures Hades as a mafia member rather than god of the underworld. Miller’s lush and dark retelling of the two Greek figures is must-read. She's the sweetest sin he's ever committed... Doctor Kal Anderson assumes his heart worked at some point. But now his cold, emotionless existence gives him an edge as a fixer and in—house physician for the Mafia, while his judgment is impartial and complication—free. Until Elena Ricci, his boss's twenty—year—old daughter. After admiring the heartless doctor from afar most of her life, Elena catches him in a moment of weakness, and the pair shares a night of passion as they attempt to work each other from their systems. Only, the night seems to have the opposite effect. Elena is no longer a simple temptation to Kal, but a necessity. An obsession. One he won't let anyone stand in his way of—even if that means crashing her wedding to another man, forcing her hand in marriage, and stealing her away to the corrupt island he resides on. Alone with the man of her nightmares, Elena starts to chip away at the layers of ice surrounding his hardened heart. But the warmth and depravity from her new husband may not be worth the secrets unveiled, or the lives that will forever be altered. From USA Today bestselling author Sav R. Miller comes a dark and twisted romance inspired by the Hades and Persephone myth.
