Inspired by stories of Greek gods and goddesses the author did not miss with this book. 

Bri was always curious about the origins of her powers. So, when she inherits her birth family’s mansion near Rhinebeck all her questions will soon be answered. 

I really enjoyed reading this one and can’t wait to read book 2 in the series. The way the author ended Poison Heart I was immediately ready to jump into book 2. Definitely a series that deserves to be on my shelf. It was the plot twist for me cause I did NOT see it coming at all. The whole group had assumptions and was iffy about a few characters. So, when everything popped off we were all a little surprised. 

The character development was great and diverse actually found them all to be very likeable. Whenever I read I always put a face with the characters. So, I couldn’t help but picture Bri’s parents Thandie and Angie as the two women from The Chi Nina and Dre. Their personalities really fit these characters for some reason. Loved Marie for Bri she seemed really solid and that damn Karter had us all fooled. 

Overall, the book was great loved the mythological aspects throughout. The writing was incredible and so descriptive which really brought it to life. Definitely a book I’d recommend the author also has a new book releasing in June “Sleep Like Death” that I can’t wait to read‼️
