Publisher's summary

Convinced that her family is hiding a terrible secret from her, Gabi decides to pay them a surprise visit.

Something is very fishy about the stories her brothers have been telling her lately. Her niece, a 19-year-old prodigy with a PhD in bioinformatics, has gotten engaged to a much older guy she met while working on some top-secret project, and if Gabi's older, overprotective brother's approval of the engagement wasn't suspicious enough, he also uprooted his family and moved to be closer to the couple.

What Gabi discovers when she gets to LA is wilder than anything she could have imagined. Her entire family possesses godly genes, her brothers and her niece have already turned immortal, and she could transition as soon as she finds an immortal male to induce her. Finding a suitable candidate in a village full of handsome immortals shouldn't be a problem, but Gabi's thoughts keep wandering to the gorgeous guy she met on her flight over.

Could Uriel be a lost descendant of the gods?

He certainly looks like them, but that doesn't mean that he's a good guy or that he's even immortal. He could be a descendant of a different god—a member of an enemy faction of immortals who seek to eradicate her family's adoptive clan, or what is more likely, he's just an extraordinarily good-looking human.

The Best series

I check daily for a new book in this series. So, we finally meet Gabby. Anxious to see if she grows confident threw the next few books, because right now she is afraid of her own shadow.
Narration is fabulous. I love all the characters he does... Even the babies..

A Loyalist With a Request

I absolutely love this series…so imaginative & so many unexpected turns just when I think I know where things are going. I am very grateful the series has not ended like others leaving me searching for something amazing. My only negative is each book is TO SHORT! & GETTING SHORTER. PLEASE give your readers at least 10 hours each for the price of their credits!

Best series out

This is my #1 favorite series! I'm always so angry when it ends, and maybe a little sad... I can't believe it's kept my interest for 74 books so far but I'm always looking forward to more! I seriously can't wait for the next one!
