Fortuna Academy #4
Perdition: A Paranormal Academy Reverse Harem Romance
If I click my heels together three times and wish hard enough, can I save Hell?
Hell is so not like what they tell you about when they are trying to scare you. It's actually kind of nice when you aren't there to take on an insane Prince of Hell. I've got allies. I've managed to get most of the supernatural groups working together. Lilith and I open a Hellmouth to an area of Hell called the Sacred Forest and I lose all ability to even when I see who all lives there. Dead gods, demons who used to run amok in the Underworld when it went by different names, and all the souls of magical creatures you only read about in stories. My new allies include Hades, Osiris, Anubis, Centaurs, fairies, an Egyptian fire breathing snake woman named Sesy, and a lot of nine headed jackal men who eat the flesh of souls in Hell.
A corrupt Prince of Hell might have every Hellhound soul in Hell on his side, but there are chinks in his armor. He lied to them about me and he lied about killing my father. Hell hath no fury like a Hellhound that has been lied to, nor the Princess of Hell when fallen angel decides to bring that much drama into her life.

God I LOVE J.B. seriously I have not read a single one of her series that I have not loved. Seriously. Just read all of her stuff.

Fuck this was amazing. I loved the guys so much. And her parents are just as fun too. The whole series needs to be longer because I just need more.

So this wasn't my favorite series by this author by far. The plot seemed to lack and the heroine left so much to be desired. Sure she's 18/19 in the story but for me her age really showed. The academy became less a part of the story as the gang finally has a name and face to put on the enemy and they travel to hell. Kind of anticlimactic for me and I do wish the plot was developed more and more time was spent on the complexities of the different supranational beings and their ruling class. Things worked out well in the end but there wasn't enough conflict for me or even jaw-dropping moments that would leave the heroine in a positive light. I wanted her to really kick some ass and make a name for herself more than just the princess of hell. The series overall was a quick read and the audios were well done, I just was not a huge fan of the heroine.

This is a great series, well written with a fabulous storyline and awesome characters! I love Hayley and her mates and was on the edge of my seat whilst following them on their latest escapade! Full of action, a little steam and a prophecy I would totally recommend you read this series from the start! Just awesome!

November 2, 2021The first 2 books were great and the 3rd book was a bit slowed down and the final book is kinda boring. Will probably finish it later.🤷♀️ Absolutely love the multiple POVs though.😍

Solid end to series
This was a lot of fun, and I enjoyed following the characters as they muddled through their mess. There was a lot of tolerance and inclusivity throughout, so that was a nice plus. The only issue I did have was the whole impetus for the perpetrator to go on their quest (of sorts). Still, spent a day reading all four books and I don’t regret it 😉

Epic battle for hell!
An action-packed, fast-paced end to the series, this was the best of the series, I couldn't stop and was so upset when I finished the book!! Hailey and her mates pull together to raise an army to save hell, the party is in the Sacred Forest, come and meet, Hades, Anubis and the gang! I can't recomend this book highly enough it is amazing!

Like my previous reviews for this series I feel like I enjoyed this less because of the narrator in the audible version. There was definitely plot points and dialogue that left me confused but the majority of the time I had a hard time telling who was talking and whether it was dialogue or plot most of the time.

Well, i think the plot was very good. Page turning I would say. The only thing that made this book take back 1,5 stars was the narrator or mb the way book was written. I don’t know whether it’s just my feeling, but the writing was sometimes so plane and easy. But I liked it anyway. Just the narrator could be better.

fantastic world
What a fabulous world and an incredible story line.
I feel that at the beginning I was a bit put out because of how fast the plot moved initially but I couldn’t put it down.
The author could have written 100 books in this world and I would buy them all and read them over and over!

Ending to this series was well written and hard to put down. I could see another set of cooks with these character but the ending was well written and a good ending if the author decides to leave this series as is.

Overall good series
I enjoyed the series but felt the characters could have been developed a little better. Characters came of a little juvenile at time. However the sex senses were good

too fast
I personally like a story that goes In depth. This series skips over stuff. Like her first time with one of her mates??? Plus it was just so fast paced and kind felt idk rushed? Meh wouldnt read again

It’s a really good ending for this series, but the overall motivation of our antagonist was absolutely predictable as soon as they arrived in the secret forest. I loved the characters and the story was absolutely to my liking, so this series gets a spot on my list of favorites.

Great series
I absolutely loved this series!!! It’s different, fun, sexy, and has great characters. Now I’ve got to move the rest of her books onto my TBR list!

Interesting and well thought out ending to the series. While there is some RH action, there was plenty of plot and a great pace.

I loved this ending. Everyone working together to overcome the corruption from before. It was incredible. I'm sad about Nash though even with his death being understandable.

Two Stars
This series had so much potential that wasn't reached. There was some great parts but ultimately I'm left feeling disappointed.

Good plot, but sophomoric writing.
I read the entire series hoping the next book would be better than the last, and that the writing would mature, but that never happened. The story had promise but the writing style was sophomoric at best and editing was poor. Character development was also minimal and what was there was often repetitive. And lastly, problems were solved way too quickly and easily without much torment or angst, which led to a fairly boring experience and one where I didn't really feel for the characters.... I ended up just reading the series to find out how it would end.... which was predictable.

Wonderful Series
I love that there was continuity between the books. No cliffhangers with book number 4, just everything tied together perfectly.

All right, if you haven’t read the first three stories of this series yet, go read them first!
This story begins with Spring Break of Hayley’s second year at Fortuna Academy. Her father, Lucifer and her mother Melinda have been kidnapped by one of the fallen angels of Hell. She and her five mates are going in to save her parents. They are not, however, going by themselves, nor are they just going to rush in willy nilly. Nope. Lilith brings her into what’s called the Sacred Forest – who knew there was something called that in Hell? Anyway, Lilith did this so she could introduce Haley to the dead gods like Hades and Persephone to begin with. Our girl goes all fan girl on Hades when he appears, turns out she’s a fan. Anyway, then she meets Anubis and Osiris too and they all discuss Lucifer and the fallen angel that kidnapped him. Then the rest of the mates and Hellhounds and Hellcats join them.
Their group now consists of three ‘dead’ gods, more than a few mythological creatures, Haley and company from Fortuna and what they refer to as ‘top side’. They need to find where Lucifer and Melinda are being held, so they go to the different homes belonging to the Princes of Hell. Each home is surrounded by Heavenly fire and there are many Hellhounds patrolling or attacking. Asmodeus was the first to join their group, then Belphegor and finally Leviathan. None of them knew why the other fallen angel had taken Haley’s parents or what he wanted with her. They still need to figure out where her parents are being held, and the Hellhounds of the group want to try to save the ones helping their enemy.
I have read all four stories in this series and written reviews for them. Hayley is technically the Princess of Hell, but she just wants her parents back. They make their plans to get her parents and deal with that other angel dude, but as will everything else in life or this story, the unexpected can happen. This is a truly phenomenal series, but I will admit to being concerned in the first bunch of chapters since there seemed to be verb tense issues. It didn’t continue though so the book sucked me in again! Ms. Trepagnier has given us an incredible finale with Perdition. We still get smexy time and there is a battle or two where blood is shed. The best scene is when Hayley makes her father, you know, Lucifer, blush and get uncomfortable. Isn’t that how all books with this cast of characters should end? Yes, I AM smirking. This was just a great read and an excellent series! I can’t wait to start her next one, Sentinels of Oz.
I was given this book for free in exchange for an honest review. As I’ve said before, I always give honest reviews whether people appreciate them or not.
