Loved this book cannot wait to read the next one in the series. The twists the turns the mystery of it all
I was a little sad that Avery isn’t Toby’s daughter but at least he still came and thinks of her like his daughter
and we finally get a decision on how’s the love interest at least for know
i can’t tell if I’m upset that it’s Jamie or not like I like Gray but also Jamie is good for her, I can’t decide

It was packed with more mystery and always had to insert a twist than the normal plot twists in history. Many side characters were introduced, and the characters from book 1 stayed true to their personalities. Although there's the frustration of the heroine's confusions and doubts, it showed readers that everything is not as it seems. This was good enough as a duology, but knowing it still has another installment is not so bad as well.

I'm oh so very confused. This book was marvellous and all but what the hell was going on in the last 100 pages.
Avery gets bombed, put into a coma, gets technically kidnapped from a hospital, survives whatever was actually wrong, then once she's fully healed, she actually gets kidnapped, nearly shot at yet again and still uncovers the mystery and saves the day all in a week. A week. I need whatever drug she was taking because jesus christ, she can't catch a damn break. This girl was just trying to live her life and now she's hella traumatise. What the hell!
I enjoyed this book more than the last. I like that
Jameson and Greyson
were more bearable this time. Last book I thought they had the personality of a wet paper towel. Anyway, good book, 4 stars, keep it up Jennifer!

Another fun book of twists and turns! I loved it picked up right where the previous one finished and we could keep learning more about the characters. I really kept wanting to find out what happened to Toby. The escalated quickly and am glad they finally had a chance to talk. I’m curious where the series will go next!

So much happened in the last 30-50 pages! It was still so good, but why couldn't there be more incidents? Some scenes needed a little bit of action. It dragged a little. One of the things that kept me going was the romance between Avery and Jameson. I know that Grayson and Avery "think similarly", but Avery and Jameson have more chemistry, even if Grayson and Avery help each other work on things personally. Because it dragged, it was still good, but not as good as the first book.

Back again for book two in the Inheritance Games series. I liked the first one but this one was even better! Action packed with twists that I didn't see coming - even some that were "obvious" turned out to be res herrings.

Yes, it's definitely a YA series. So if that isn't for you, then leave this one on the shelf. But if you're open to a puzzle-packed mystery, full of ancient family drama, this one may just be made for you!

I loved the character growth for Avery and the Hawthorne brothers. I'm already looking forward to diving into book three when I can get it from the library!
