G.O.D.S: Gifted. Obedient. Deadly. Students. by Jaye Pratt

5.0

This was my first read from this author and its definitely an intriguing and readworthy series to begin with!

As With alot of my reads, I went in pretty blind and I feel this is the best way with this one, so will try to not give much away here!

Our FMC is Jolie, who is18 in a couple of months and in the foster system. She believes she was in a car accident a few years ago and was rescued by her friend, Trace. She can't remember anything else from before it. After getting a simple note that she believes is from Trace come to rescue her at last, she leaves the current foster home to meet at the cafe point.

Only to be drugged.....

This is the start of a weird, almost down the rabbit hole for Jolie as she goes thru struggle after struggle and uncovers lie after lie, and discovering hidden truths everywhere.  And still doesn't know if what she knows is everything she *should* know and if everything is the truth!!

Her case workers parents end up being her foster parents and she ends up living with her -now- ex-case worker, Brennan and his younger brother, Boston. And more often than not, Bostons odd friends Laughn, Davis, Case and Marlow are there too.

The story of who everyone is, including Jolie herself unfolds slowly and its done perfectly. There are times  especially at the beginning when I was a little lost, but the writing was so good I couldn't put it down. Then it would all just click, so if you do struggle, stick with it, I promise you it's worth it!

The 5 boys each have a strong, unique personality that matches Jolie perfectly. At first they wanted to get rid of her and fast. Boston even set a bet that if she could sleep with all the GOD'S she could go where she wanted, if she couldn't he would be in charge....But once they're told who she is and her importance....things change quickly. I have to admit to having a stronger liking to Laughn! I found him mega scary at first, especially with the tongue! But as time goes on, not so much!

This is a reverse harem, and they all defintely have the heat and spark when they get together! Not as much romance as yet but you don't miss it with the awesome storyline- trust me!!

The end has an almighty cliffhanger!!! One of those in which I really need book two...NOW!!!!
Having said that....I dont think the ending is the end we think it is! (Cryptic but you'll see!!)

A good start to an interesting series!!

I received a copy of the ebook in return for an honest review
