Rate this book
The stories about Medusa have instilled terror in the hearts of many for centuries. The head full of snakes, her mesmerizing and deadly gaze, and the stone victims she left behind as a warning to others who dared to look upon her beauty. But what if the stories we’ve been told aren’t entirely true? Every story has two sides, and it’s finally time to hear Medusa’s side.

Medusa has spent centuries on the run after faking her death, until she settles in her refuge amongst the humans in a town called Tranquility. She thinks she’s finally found a safe haven where she can live in peace, until he comes in and demands more from her.

Remedy is a man who gets everything he wants, that is until a stubborn, fiery female tells him no. There is something that draws him to the petite beauty who hides herself away from the world, and he intends to find a way to break down her walls and get what he wants, no matter what he has to do to get her to submit to him.

Two people at war with each other suddenly find themselves thrown together, as an unknown threat comes to destroy the very thing they are fighting about. Has Medusa’s past come back to haunt her, or does Remedy have enemies of his own?

Are you ready to delve into the story of the deadliest woman in mythology? Well, get ready for this urban mythological fantasy!

I literally devoured this book! I loved the retelling of Medusa's story. The authors did a good job mixing Greek mythology and current events into the storyline. I wanted to fight Athena and Poisedon for what they did to Medusa buuut Athena redeemed herself. Loved Remedy and the way he loved on Nesa. So good!

For your love

This book was all that and a bag of chips. The both of you have really outdone yourselves. Poisedon was really full of himself. But, I was pissed that Athena did not believe Medusa, but that is what happens when your dickmatized. Nessa (Medusa) went through a lot, but I was so glad that she met Remedy (Triton) and he did not give up on making her his mate. But what I truly loved is how all three women came together and realized that they had more in common and not assume. Definitely can't wait for book two

So I'm going to with a three star rating with this one because I liked the idea of the love story between Medusa and Triton. Also the action scenes were good and I like the idea of a romance for Medusa as she always gets a bad wrap in these greek mythology stories/retellings. But here is my thing, it was just hard for me as a reader to believe in the relationship between Medusa and Triton at the end of this becuase imo we didn't get much of them together on page. Too much of other side plots overshadowed their time.

I do think this will be a good series should the authors continue with it...as I admit there were some side characters that were truly interesting.

Medusa deserves more retellings. Her anger is justified and I was expecting that she burned more stuff down after what Poseidon did. The fact that Athena gave a tepid a pilot and Amphitrite just turned a blind eye to his ways. I hated that and of course the rampant misogyny. Again I wanted !more destruction but her HEA i think was a workaround

I wanted to dive deeper into the world of fantasy, but I had limitations on what I wanted to get into. So, when I stumbled upon a Medusa retelling, I was thrilled—it combined two of my favorite tropes: urban settings and Greek mythology. This book exceeded my expectations, and I can’t wait for more!


I loved how Iesha and Annita preserved the authenticity of Greek mythology while seamlessly integrating the urban elements. The dialogue was fresh and engaging, making the story a delight to read. If you're familiar with Greek mythology, you know that Medusa's tale is typically tragic. This retelling flips that narrative on its head, portraying her as a victim of a cruel curse, and you find yourself wholeheartedly rooting for her.


The cast is fantastic, featuring not just Medusa but also a captivating array of characters, including a rather unhinged Poseidon, along with Zeus, Athena, Amphitrite, Hades, and Perseus. The introduction of new demi-gods like Remedy (Triton), Po, Torch, and Massika adds even more excitement.


What really stood out was how Iesha and Annita skillfully blended the divine and human realms, showcasing how the Greek gods wielded their power over mortals. This is a brilliantly executed retelling, and I highly recommend picking it up. I'm especially eager to explore Massika and Torch's story next—they definitely caught my interest!

More please.....

Where do I begin? This book cover so many issues graciously. From stalking, to the issue of women not holding the man accountable for cheating and tormenting the woman in situation. But also showed how we as women can finally see though the b.s. and and heal each other. Also how fragile some peoples mental illness are because Poseidon that man need more than that cell. He brought back my personal experience. Whew chile! Thank God for padded cells.
I enjoyed this book on such a deep level. And really enjoyed all the characters. I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes from here. Well done Ladies ⚘⚘⚘

Everything ain’t always what it seems

And it can all go wrong because of a lie!

Medusa was done dirty by some arrogant god named Poseidon who can’t control his sexual urges. She was a vengeful legend but wanted peace.
Remedy was determined to do better and be better than his father. He had his heaux faze but aspired for more. He wanted to have a relationship with his true mate and honor and cherish her. But while he was yet to meet her he was about his money.
The actions of a greedy and self centered god sets off a series of events where the repercussions of deception had an impact for many years.
Will they both get what they are looking for?

Unique story (4.5 stars)

This was a really good story, with good characters and funny dialogue. It was intriguing to see the modernization of ancient mythical characters. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because of the errors in the book which were present from start to end. There weren't enough to make me stop reading but they were definitely there and were slightly distracting. All in all I would recommend this book to anyone wanting to read a love story with more than a few twists and turns to it.

WOW! LOVE IT!

I was totally happy with this version of the Greek myth of Medusa. She was definitely a victim. She was prosecuted twice for simply being a beautiful woman. Thanks to this books version of Perseus he saw her true heart and decided to help her instead of kill her. Medusa was able to find love and happiness with someone unexpected. Enjoyed this book and look for to reading more of the Goddess scrolls.

Good storyline

It was neat to see figures from Greek Mythology intertwined with the current world. The way they spoke and their preoccupation with everything sex made them seem less like gods , As someone who loves history and Greek mythology, it was nice to see Medusa's story told

Finally somebody did it right! They crushed this! I’ve been waiting on somebody to do something with Greek mythology and baby they did not disappoint! They pooled me in from the gate! I can’t wait for the rest of the scrolls! Bring them on! I expected nothing less from these 2! Sensational

Fabulous Story!

Omg! I loved this book, it was a whole new perspective on Medusa. I hope this is not a one and done because they have not scratched the surface of Goddesses that I would love them to do. Isis, Sekhmet, Hathor, I can’t even name them all. The authors made this such a believable story because I am one to think that what’s old is new.

Fire

That father got me so messed up! How could he think that what he was doing was okay. Now he is all alone without nobody. I am so happy for Nesa, but she should have done oh girl who turned her ugly bad. She should have got some type of payback.

Good read!

Really enjoyed the twist on Medusa and having a back story to put with the popular Greek mythology character. Loved the connection and relationships she shared with Remedy and Raine. Good, quick read with lots of action.

Amazing Read

I love how you wrote about Medusa, I couldn't put the book down. I'm glad Remedy found her and showed her what true love is. Now, that Posideon is a piece of work and got everything he deserved. Another great book by this author. Can not wait to read the next one.

what a great story

I didn’t think I would like this story, because what I have read about Medusa in stories. But I really love this story, can’t wait to read the next book. If you haven’t read this story go get it now, you will not be sorry getting it.

Sy is a dog

Sy abused his status and people. He had no love for anyone but himself. I hope he never gets out. I was so happy for Medusa/Nesa she deserved to be free and happy. Athena apologized like she should have
