Product Information

The whole arranged marriage or marriage of convenience trope can be a good starting point to an interesting romance. Having two people immediately thrust together who don’t necessarily know anything about one another but have to find some way to work through it creates the kind of tension that leads to great stories and interesting romances. Each person has to find a way to compromise and fit together without giving up the most essential aspects of themselves. Learning to respect and support one another during difficult moments and this, oftentimes, unwanted situation. They say I ruined her. Shattered her virtue and devoured her soul like a succulent pomegranate. Embedded my evil as deep as I could possibly get and tried to set her free. They’re not wrong, per se. Except it was she who ruined me. Promises and Pomegranates is a full-length, stand-alone dark contemporary romance inspired by the Hades and Persephone myth. It is not fantasy or a literal retelling.

Kallum’s personality might be hard to swallow for some readers, I’ll admit that, but I found myself coming to like him. He’s a man who lost his mother young, was rejected by his family, and fell into the Mafia world when he had no other option. His penchant for violence grew from being forced to do hits for them and then was nurtured by his career in medicine. He grew up in loss, violence, and darkness, much like Hades. To him, Elena is a piece of sunshine in a dark world that he desperately clings to. Sav R. Miller is a USA Today bestselling author of adult romance with varying levels of darkness and steam.

Building and supporting a community of self-published authors dedicated to both sharing experiences and learning as equals. Elena is drawn to that darkness, in much the way I think Persephone may have been drawn to Hades, and we see her accepting and reveling in his attentions. There is wholehearted consent here. She is never forced to accept or play along with any of his kinks, they happen to be hers too. A sexually repressed Boston elite Mafia princess finds freedom in Kallum’s more dark sexuality. We see her retaking her agency throughout the book, through her active role in sex and in her eventual acceptance of their marriage.
