Since I was old enough to understand I knew I was worthless. A girl child when my powerful politician of a mother prayed for a boy. Someone to mold in her image. I stayed out of her way, until I couldn’t, and she made me regret every stumble, every misstep, every breath.
Like clockwork, she paid off doctors to drag me into a mental hospital at her most crucial career moments. I rotted behind cinderblock walls for six months at a time. It became my life...until I met him.
Ash. A one night stand in the back seat of his car turns into my only solace while locked away. He pretends I’m just another patient, until I force him to see me...the woman...Kory...someone who needs him more than anyone else.
My mother is a monster. I’m nothing more than a pawn. But Ash...he’s my salvation.
Hades and Persephone like you’ve never seen them. This is magic, this is menace, this is myth...with a dark twist.

My Review
DERANGED:
A hades and Persephone full length story by 'New to me author, Monica Corwin's' (Twisted Myth #1) Spoken in 'Dual Perspectives.' This is Persephone and Ashton's story.
The cover is amazing, the synopsis pulled me in, the storyline hooked me in even further. This was so easy to get into, a unique, unputdownable read which got its clutches into from the very first chapter.
Persephone aka Kory is a pawn of her mother's, hidden away from the rest of the world every six months in a mental institution so that she's out of sight during her political campaign. Like a puppet on a string Kory knows not to fight it.

Before she's thrown into the mental institution again for another six month stint her last night of freedom on the town sees her having a one night fling, this man becomes so much more, he becomes her salvation. A Doctor that has access to Kory's files digs deeper and when things don't add up he fights in her corner.
No diagnosis, her medications didn't make sense, and her session notes seemed perfunctory.
I can honestly say I’ve not read anything like this story before, I loved how all the names were linked with the different characters in the book, that was so cleverly done.
The only thing I would’ve liked is that this book was longer, being a short quick read I felt like it lost character development, I didn’t fully feel their connection, but overall a good read which I enjoyed.
