House of Gods Book 1

Charisma has lived for her mother her whole life. Then suddenly she is taken to Elythra, for the Gods' Gambit. All she wants to do is get back to her mom. And she knows more is going on than what they are telling everyone. Like Zeus' magic isn't working on her, and she sees things others don't. But the genuine change is when she releases a shadow. Will she listen to the Shadow's advice? Or will she die trying?

This is the first book in House of Gods. Charisma is a smart-mouthed woman who was taught about the Gods. She is also very kind. Eros has been grieving for years over Psyche. These two have great chemistry. The romance is a slow burn, and I've been told it gets hotter in the next book. The world differs from Mythology books conveys, but still filled with magic and beauty. I enjoyed the take. in this book. I can't wait to read what happens next book.

“The Gods’ Gambit, a game of deadly trials, always ended with a winner.

Not this time.

They are coming. They are coming. They are coming. Those were the words her mother repeated every day without fail.

When twenty-two-year-old Charisma woke up in Elythra, forced into the Gods’s Gambit, her mother’s warning suddenly made sense.

Though, the trials weren’t her only problem.

The figure of a man, made of shadow, instructed her that her survival hinged on one thing: she had to pretend to be in love with the God of Love.

The games? They became the least of her concerns.

As the trials unraveled, Charisma found herself entangled in an alliance with three powerful gods who, unexpectedly, depended on her. Despite their own ruthless agendas, they were her ticket home. To her mother.

Trapped between divine games, ancient vows and a turn of fate, she realized that even if she believed she had outsmarted the gods, she was just a pawn.

And in a game played by gods, pawns were never meant to survive.”
