I need more Abcruse brothers
I should have cherished it. I should have tried to pace myself. But no, I DEVOURED it in one day! Now I’ve finished it and who knows when the fourth book will be out.I was so excited to be reading about the Abcurse brothers because it’s been too damn long since I read Persuasion. The guys are back and are more possessive than ever!“You should—”“Stop talking to boys,” I interrupted.“Yeah.”We’ve had this talk before. It’s irrational. I can’t avoid all males.”“Just the sols.” He frowned. “And the dwellers. And the gods.”“So just … all males, then?” I arched a brow at him.He nodded, once, short and sharp—as though we had just figured out our differences and come to a mutual agreement.Willa was still a freaking hoot! This girl kept me laughing throughout the entire book. Of course, she couldn’t keep herself out of trouble while the guys were gone. She barely did when they were there. I’m glad we didn’t spend too much time without them being together.The dynamic between Willa and the guys just got better and better. It turned me to mush. I blew through the pages trying to get all that I could. I could read about them all day. The was great banter between them and don’t even get me started on the sexual tension! She was theirs and they were hers.Large hands wrapped around me as he pulled me close to his chest. “What I actually said was that you are ours. I’ve claimed ownership of you, Willa Knight.”Far more gently than I would have expected, he pushed me back to arm’s length. “We’re yours also, you know that. This isn’t a one-way thing.”We also get to learn a little background on Willa and get a little bit more information about what makes her so different from normal dwellers.So it’s obvious that I loved this book, so you’re probably wondering why I only gave it 4 stars. It’s because I wasn’t satisfied with her finally getting with the guys. (I don’t think this is a spoiler because you know it was bound to happen and I haven’t given any details of when or who.) We have been tortured for two books filled with sexual tension, two books! I just felt as if it was way too short and undeserving.Overall, I’m already dying from waiting for book 4 already. I just need more of the series, it seriously has become one of my favorites.

Spoiler! The “Pact...”
Oh my gods, so worth waiting for! Since the series seems to be based on the harem god brother’s powers, then a book called “Pain,” and another called “Strength,” should be in the wings still.I adored the increased world building and character fleshing out. Unlike other authors, these two are solidly focused on bringing the reader solidly into their worlds, and caring deeply for the characters in the series. The subplots, involve the worker’s world, and the god’s world. There are hints of another, too. There is a caste system in place, and the main character is a super clumsy spirited girl, raised mostly by her adopted sister. Who always seems to have a medipak on her person, to treat Willa’s injuries sustained by her “curse,” of clumsiness. Willa and those around her, all fall prey to the curses’ often hilarious incidences that our heroine takes in stride. In her own opinion, it’s not like she has a choice, so just in case falling down a well, getting charged by Bullshen(a Brahma Bull like oxen with tempers to match), or accidentally setting her teacher on fire with a found bucket of mystery substance, hits it’s mark in a fatal way... Then Willa’s attitude of live life like the next hour could be her last, is not only completely understandable, but keeps the adventurous maiden moving always forward, with a can do spirit, that has you falling in love with her, and cheering her on. My favorite part of the series so far was a intentional joke she pulled, where everyone else saw her running around school in her underwear and bra, except her boyfriend brothers. Yeah, in case you haven’t read the series yet in full, the hero harem consist of triplets and twins. Same mom and dad. The reactions from everyone as they noticed her state of undress, and the equally puzzled but growing suspicion of the brothers is laugh out loud hilarious. This scene was in 2nd book, “Persuasion.” Amazing series. Buy them all Now! You won’t be disappointed!

Just okay this time
I wish when people rate these books, an accurate not overblown rating would be given. I review the ratings and have certain expectations when I see 5 Stars. I LOVED the first two installments, but this one was just okay until the end. I enjoyed it, but felt it was just a set up for the next. I just read 4 psychos and it is along the same lines but lots of fun like the first of this series. Please get back to the same writing style of the first two books or make this longer with less filler. Would still recommend.

It’s been fun so far, but now I don’t know if I want to continue
This has been a fun series to read so far, but I have a couple of complaints.The first is when Willa got the guys to give up on their pact. That’s great. What I didn’t like was that they told her SHE had to keep it equal. I felt like they placed the whole burden of maintaining their relationship solely on her shoulders. Seriously, it should be a partnership. There is no reason why the can’t help maintain their equality of status and time/affection spent with Willa. She shouldn’t have to be the one to to do all the work.The second is while she is separated from the guys and she gets some world altering information about Staviti’s origins, but I felt like she totally brushed it off because she was too busy whining and moping about being separated from her guys.I’ve enjoyed this series so far and it has been fun, but now I’m undecided as to whether or not I want to continue reading it.

Long awaited and not disappointing!
Book 3, Seduction, takes us further along in the life of clumsy and it seems chaos driven dweller, Willa. This time, we are on the brink a rebellion between dweller, sol and gods while the Abcurses are called back to Topia to face trial for breaking the one rule given to them when exiled to Minatsol. Willa is pushed further than ever by her enemies and what will she do when left alone without the Abcurse brothers to protect her from herself and the foe around her? Blackouts and fires ensue as Willa is left to struggle through alone. If they are reunited, what will happen to the pact? Is the relationship with Willa and her 5 hunky men too strong to resist?I really enjoyed this book and was so excited when it pinged down onto my kindle - finally! I loved seeing Willa cope with problems alone, although like her, I very much missed the constant chemistry between her and the Abcurses during their absence. We learn more about what Willa is, something that has kept me guessing through the installments so far. I also like how more of the inner workings of Topia and Staviti have been revealed - the making of the "Jeffries", Staviti's beginnings, Topia before the gods, the pantera... it's cleverly devised and well thought out.I know some people may be put off my the relationship developing between Willa and the Abcurses - in which case know that their relationships being tied together increase here so this may not be for you. I, however, am eagerly awaiting number 4!

Chaos reigns as old regimes are threatened and the downtrodden rise.
Well, I've raced through the first three books in just over 24 hours, so that should give you some idea of how much I love this series.This is the third book in the Curse of the Gods series. This book really picked up the pace. Chaos reigns as old regimes are threatened and the downtrodden rise up to make their voices heard.Our main characters are explored in further depth. Previously secondary characters are brought to the fore. Best of all, the sexual tension which has been brewing for most of this series between our heroine and the five brothers who have brought her into their circle is finally addressed. Finally! Much more of that please!This series is great. If you haven't read the previous books, go and get them. You won't regret it. I'm about to start book four. Who needs sleep anyway?

Ok preferred the first two
I did enjoy reading this however at times had to push on as I became slightly bored and found no real story line behind this one. I did enjoy that this was continued from the last book and that willa and the abacurses relationship evolved however I found it a short read that wasn't really going anywhere.

Fabulous!
This third instalment of this fantastic series was highly anticipated and it did not disappoint in any way. The authors have continued as they started off, keeping the story moving and developing well. Willa is as quirky, hilarious and as loveable as ever. The fabulous Abcurse brothers continue to keep her on her toes though and her head spinning. There are a few twists in there that I wasn't expecting and this just highlights the fab work and thought from the authors to keep this story fresh and entertaining. Some questions are answered but oh so many more questions! I read this in one sitting and am going to be rereading all three in the series soon. Highly recommended read, you do not want to miss the next chapter in this great series. Brilliant!

Fantastically entertaining.
Seduction is book 3 in the curse of the Gods series and if you loved the first 2 books Trickery and Persuasion then Seduction will not disappoint. If you haven't read the other 2 books then what are you waiting for? Get your hands on Trickery now. Yet again this book series made me laugh out loud. Willa is such a Klutz and she stumbles from one mess to the next making a very entertaining read. The story is original and I love the world that both Jane and Jaymin have created. The story continues on nicely from where we left off in Persuasion and we get to peek a little more into the life of Willa and the beautiful Abcurses. The story develops at a nice pace, never feels rushed but also keeps you interested.I can't wait for book 4. I haven't ever read a series of books quite like these. Fantastic. I would give it 6 Unicorns(stars) if I could.
