Hedone despises the self-absorbed Aphrodite. She refuses to let her grandmother drive a wedge between her parents.

This story had a lot of potential. It had so many things that should've made it an automatic 5 star read: you have gods, goddesses, muses and nymphs being chaotic, Aphrodite being a messy bitch who lives for drama and a rock paper scissor showdown between Hephaestus and Ares. Unfortunately, while it was a fun read, the writing was a bit juvenile, and I never really connected with the characters.

Never mess with a girl and her money!

I loved this! I loved the idea of a child helping their parents I loved a pack of girls getting even with a bunch of boys. A great read!!

Fun Twist on Greek Mythology

I love Greek mythology and this story zeros in on why. The different personalities, relationships and responsibilities are ripe for awkward and fun situations.

Our MC Hedona is a great character and one you don’t see utilized much in retellings. But her spunk and intelligence is to be envied here.

Throwing in some modern settings gives it an even better spin. I genuinely had no idea where this was going to go. And I’m intrigued to see more.

Honestly I just couldn't get into the book, but Booksprout is punishing me for doing withdrawals so I just have to leave a review.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
