The future is a hot mess of would-be, what ifs, and nonsense.
People like to think of fate as this set plan of what the future should be. That destiny will get them from point a to point b, no matter what they do. As the world’s only future sight, let me set the record straight.
Even with my gift to take sneak peeks at the future, It’s unpredictable at best. Which is how I found myself face to face with a handsome blue eyed stranger, who poofed right into my life and my house, to hand deliver a smirk and an unappealing invitation I couldn’t refuse.
Turns out, there is an entire society of people with powers like me living in the shadows of normal society, and they just added me to their census with a bright, shiny title I never asked for.
Legacy? We’ll see about that.
*This is a spicy fantasy that has a strong romantic plot intended for mature audiences and is the first book in a series*
I couldn't put this book down. I was in tears for parts and on the edge of my seat for others. There's heat and story and a kick ass main character and people who love her and drama and omg how did it all fit into one book? Immediately downloaded the 2nd.
I really loved this book. It took me on a rollercoaster ride of emotions. I laughed, I cried, and I definitely got angry at some of the characters. The world building was amazing, and I felt like I was right there with the characters the whole time I was reading, and I really loved the storyline. The characters are written so beautifully. There was so much chemistry between the characters Change and Lance, as well as between Change, Kane, Sam, and Lexi ( I may be spelling her name wrong, so I apologize if I am). I couldn't put this book down, but obviously I had to on occasion because of life or I would have finished it in one day. This book is definitely a page turner. I recommend this book if you love a good storyline that is action packed and has some spice!
ARC review. I started this book very confused yet intrigued. The intrigue grew with each page. Wait, how does that person tie in and why is that person all the sudden involved with that type of twists and turns. I dont write synopsis type reviews, (that’s what the synopsis is for) but the storyline grows perfectly. The characters will leave you wishing they were real so you could grab a beer with them and at one point I wanted to put the book in the freezer so nothing would happen next. Only complaint would be that I can’t get book 2 yet.
oh my god.. this book took me for the biggest roller coaster ride i’ve ever been on… i’m being honest here when i say i’m finding it hard to form words.
started this book out change and lance captures my heart so fast. the love story between is ABSOLUTELY beautiful!! i’m not going to go into the storyline because i highly recommend reading it for yourself. but i have never been so broken by a story before. there are so many twist and turns. it sucks you in right from the start. i can’t wait for the next book.
there is everything you could want. insta love, j@ck@ss villains, magic, some really really hot spice. like holy heck it was hot. i want a lance…

The girls do some errands and when they get back home Change had another vision. The girls share some drinks at home. I'm going to say Chapter 13 is my favorite chapter so far. Although Viktor interrupted again geeez.

During their conversation while he is preparing dinner, Change has a vision,hmm what can it mean? Lance can hear what Change is saying in her head, or is she saying it out loud?
They continue their conversation and Change is feeling something. Ooooh wow Lance opened a restaurant in my home state. I love to see my home state in tv shows,movies or books,thanks Kat.
There is ALOT of teasing between Lance and Change. Oooooh boy Oh boy a heart rate rising moment, oh man interrupted by Vikor(Lexi's boyfriend). No one like Lexi's boyfriend Viktor, what's up with that?
Chapter 7 in the beginning has me sort laughing Change had breakfast with her dad,they also have a conversation about their family and abilities. Change has to go to a black tie dinner her dad invited her too,but she has a vision and runs home.
Change's dad and the king has his(the king's)advisors shower Change with gifts,but she won't accept them ,but I turn she makes Jean embarrassed. The teleporting that Lance does reminds me of Edward from Twilight.

There is a screaming fight between Lexi and her brothers,she goes ballistic and throws Change's phone on the floor and breaks it,ugh oh.
This is my first review for Kat Bethel
Chapters 1-5
At first I was seeing Rose Hathaway as Change,but now I'm seeing Meadow Soprano lol. Lexie,I'm seeing Sally from Aurora Tea Garden Viktor I'm seeing as Zack Morris Lance I'm seeing Chris Evans Kane-I'm seeing Matt Dillon Sam I'm seeing Johnny Depp Change's dad I see Tony Soprano
The visions that Change gets gives me The Vampire Academy vibes. Change's dad is a King She has a legacy? Change gets injured but is healed. She also got herself a date,but Sam is not happy.
I could not put this book down. It has everything! Action, romance, steam, and a wide range of emotions. Each read through only enhanced my experience. Change can see the future but the way in comes in is chaotic at best for her. There is so much development between who she is at the beginning and who she transforms into after her world is shattered by her estranged father. Lexi… ugh I love Lexi and didn’t see that coming. that’s all I’m going to say there. Lance! You have stolen my heart. Definitely my type and I loved getting to see so many angles of him as Change responded to the depths of what happened around her. Paul is a character I want to keep my eye on! I am on the edge of my seat waiting for book two now! This is not a series you want to miss out on!
This book has been one of he best reads so far. I have loved every part of the story and every little detail involved. There were so many characters in this story and each character is memorable in their own way. I however found the main characters, of course, to be my favorites. Change Yilmaz is the leading female main character who has the ability to see the future and each vision she has is a glimpse of every “what if” that could happen and every choice she makes either solidifies that course or changes it altogether. Her character growth as well as her gift’s growth from the beginning of her story to where this book ends is enthralling. The leading male character, Lance, is the kind of book boyfriend I would Die for; he is headstrong and arrogant but above all, loving and protective. Th way the author describes his eyes 🤤! I can’t wait to see more of him in the next installment of this series and hopefully more on his past. Lexi is the sassy best friend of Change that will captivate you with her charm. The suspense just keeps building with this story from the first page to the very end and will leave you begging for more. It is captivating, magical, mysterious, action-packed, and at times a little heartbreaking. And let’s not forget about the steam 🌶️ 10/10!! I definitely would recommend this book!
" Let's go take a shower, maybe our moods will improve when we aren't covered in blood." Just a snippet of this Twisted Adventure of Impassioned Spice and Ferocious Fights! So many characters to love, hate and miss so bad. The Chaos is so fun and awesome to read. It made the beginning hard at first and made my first review on Amazon 4 stars. it's a 5 star it just took reading it twice because I am new to so complex for stories.
"Pretty Girl, I'm not in any position, but I'll go into one if you ask nicely" Lance's voice promised passion and Sin." Are you liking Lance Yet? "I focused behind him to regain my composure as my sex drive revved up like a shiny new sports car." You will shelf Lance, just a short introduction to your next book boyfriend.
Kat Bethel is a mother of a house full of crotch gobbling's and still writes and works her ass off for us readers on Facebook doing all of the release parties she can. She is super engaging reading every comment and responding to most. Kat Bethel will answer your questions on Facebook so fast. "The Court's Criminal" will be on Amazon before we know it so hurry and read "The Lost Legacy" Now because like me you will want to read her whole series ((The Yilmaz Chronicles))
This story has so many twists and turns throughout it. It is an amazing story that pulls me in and kept me glued to it. The emotions felt throughout the story will have you laughing, crying, and feeling all the characters emotions as the experience the different emotions themselves. Change was an amazing FMC. She is tough when needed but yet is sweet and caring when also needed. She has so much love for those that she care about in her tiny little body that it is felt throughout the story. Lance is you arrogant when needed type but not in a way that makes him look and act bad. It is in a way that only makes him a more interesting character to the story. I love the twist and turns that were added to the story. The storyline was unique and original. It is extremely well written and developed. It will have you on the edge of your seat with anticipation. Then we get to the ending of this book and you absolutely go into shock with that cliffhanger. It was completely major and unexpected. I absolutely can’t wait to see what happens next.
Holy dogs ears, what a rollercoaster of emotions this book took me through.
This book is about a young woman called Yilmaz who is a total comedian that can see into the future. She finds herself dragged to a complete wasteman of a guy called Alexander who thinks he’s the dogs 💩 when in reality he is just a psycho.
When I say I was in for a rollercoaster of emotions, I mean a ROLLERCOASTER. One minuet I’m sat crying at how absolutely hilarious this book is and then the next I’m ugly crying at how evil this world is. Then I’m laughing again, then I’m taking a cold shower. Repeat 20 times and yeah, I was so unstable even my dog left me.
The book is well written along with the characters, it’s predominantly a Dual POV so you get the feel of both sides. I’ve added the blue eyed ‘stranger’ to my never ending list of book boyfriends OFC. Now the wait until the 22nd until I can get my hands on the sequel.
Overall, did I enjoy this book? Hell yes. Do I plan to read the following book? Yes. Would I recommend this book? Yes, to everyone. Heck even my nan.
What if you could see the future and change the course of your life and those around you? Change Yilmaz’s visions are chaotic at best. It’s a gift she’s not quite sure how to harness. When Change meets Lance, she realizes there’s an entire society of people like her. But is she ready to accept the role before her?
You know I love a sassy FMC and Change is exactly that. Lance is protective and passionate; if you collect book boyfriends, he definitely belongs on your shelf. The chemistry and heat between these two is scorching and you’ll get completely lost in their love story.
The magical world building is so beautiful, the characters captivating, and I’ve never felt so many emotions in one read. And holy cliffhanger! Luckily I already have the next in this series in my queue 💜🖤
This book was so good! It did take a bit longer than normal for me to get really into it but once I was sucked in it had my full attention! There were a few big surprises I definitely didn’t see coming and one of them is absolutely devastating! I didn’t think it was real at first. Another one is really awesome and I can’t see what comes of it in the next book because it has sooo much potential for cool things! I really want to know what all the royals hate so much about lance, I feel like there’s something in his past that he’s hiding that could make or break the relationship???? And Uhg I need more Kane and Sam! I love them both so much and their banter. And just and fyi there is a MAJOR cliffhanger at the end.
Heat level: 4/5. How good is this story? I started with book 2 thinking it was book 1 and didn't stop reading until 150 pages in when I realized it was the wrong book. I spoiled stuff for myself and was bummed I couldn't keep going even though I didn't understand everything that was happening. Idk how many books it's been since I read Fantasy that happens in the real world, but I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I can't wait to finally finish the next one. This dude makes it seem like he would be happy eating her out all day. When he edged her out, I almost slid out of my seat. Dick game is strong with this one. It IS a slow burn though so don't expect them jumping into the spice immediately. He definitely falls first too. That ending was wild.
This book was incredible! It had everything I was looking for! I really couldn’t put it down, even though it took me almost 2 weeks to read. I was reading every single second I got during that two week. I accidentally read a few paragraphs of the third book 1st. And I was really really confused. I was thinking to myself that maybe everything comes out towards the end of the first chapter. I decided to see which number of the series the book was and I realize it was the third! No wonder I didn’t make sense! This first book is really really good! The writing is on point. The explanations of the background and the magic is incredible! I’ve already started reading the second book and can’t wait to finish.
In this fantasy story of people with certain gifts and hide among us normal humans, there is definitely a romantic side also. One day , Change is whisked away to a world she doesn't want to be a part of, but apparently it is her legacy. When Lance is constantly coming to her rescue, what else can happen - but a bond of love. I really go into Change and Lance's story, but also the bigger history surrounding them. When I got to the end, all I wanted to do was read the next book in this series. Loved this book - 5 stars.
ARC review: This book started off confusing at first but then steadily started to catch my interest as it went on. Once I got into it took me on a roller coaster of Emotions with all of the twist and turns. This book has spice, suspense, a MMC that you will get lost in, a FMC that has visions and is more of a modern fantasy. If you’re looking for a new read, something different, this is a story that will grab your attention.
This book was such a worldwind!! Action, adventure, disaster, happiness it has it all this book definitely kept me on my toes and kept me guessing about what’s going to happen next. I love the way the text was formatted, it made it really easy to follow what was what. I loved Change’s growth into her powers and I admire her lack of self preservation. As much as I want to say more, I’m desperately trying to avoid giving spoilers so I’m gonna end here. This book was great and holy cliffhanger!!
Meet Change Yilmaz. She has crazy eyes and can "see the future". Shes frosty, hilarious and a real hard ass. And turns out she's Legacy of the Yilmaz family In a secret magical world which aligns with earth. Shes fighting off arseholes trying to force her arm into weaponising her skills and she's swept off her feet by Lance (my new book boyfriend - hea a real G). Pick it up and enter her crazy life, you won't regret it!
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
This is a great start to the new series, The Yilmaz Chronicles. Once I got really into the book, it was so easy to become invested. This has a rollercoaster of emotions. I enjoyed the suspense and intrigue that came with it. This is an amazing read that is a great introduction to this amazing cast of characters.
Okay, this book took me on a bit of a roller coaster ride. Also, I cannot get over that ending..is book two done yet? 🤣 Seriously though, this was a great start to a new series and it kept me intrigued the entire time. My favorite (obviously) is Lance, and I'd love to punch Victor in the face. I can't wait to see how this series progresses and look forward to the next one!
I absolutely devoured this book, the voice of the author was exactly what I prefer. The storyline was captivating, the FMC was sassy which I absolutely love! This book had tension and angst and the SPICE was A+! This series is my newest obsession & I can’t wait for the next book, I am drooling in anticipation!
I absolutely could not put this book down. It was gripping and held you in till the very end. I love the characters. This book is funny, wild, has lots of twists and turns , a little sad and the right amount of spice. I highly recommend this book be warned its an addicting read.
What a fantastic unexpected find!!! This is HIGHLY recommended. It had me hooked starting on chapter 1. The spice is nice, the characters spunky and well developed. I can’t wait to see what happens in the next book! Do yourself a favor and give Kat Bethel’s creative work a whirl, you’ll thank me later.
WOW. I feel In love with the book by the end of the first chapter. I couldn’t put it down, the cliffhanger at the end already has me starting the second book in the series!
Done so well, my eyes feel like sandpaper cuz i couldnt put it down and pulled an all nighter.... So fumny aswell, and emotional. Got a few goot tears out of me and laughs that i almost choke. Really recommend it to everyone. Its different, exciting, tens full, emotinal... Its a wonderful Rollercoaster.
I don't know why I waited so long before diving into this book. It made me feel so many things at one point I wanted to throw it because it put me through the ringer lol. It definitely tugged at my heart strings a little bit but it also made me laugh and left me on the edge of my seat. Change is definitely an amazing FMC. She is so caring and funny I just love her.
ARC Review. This is my first ever book review so I’ll keep it short and sweet. I went in blind with this book and I was not disappointed! I can’t wait for the next book to see how it all pans out! Thank you for the ARC!!
