Seduction Curse of the Gods Review
Halt! If you’re new to the Curse of the Gods series, start from Book 1 – Trickery by Jaymin Eve and Jane Washington.
Don’t you love the cover for this one?! If you’ve been reading the series, you’ve probably noticed that the titles are going in the reverse order of how Willa has ranked her Abcurses, along with the colors associated with each of them.
5 – Siret (Trickery – Purple)
4 – Yael (Persuasion – Green)
3 – Aros (Seduction – Golden Yellow)
2 – Rome (Strength – Blue)
1 – Coen (Pain – Black)
I love these little Easter eggs in the books.
The plot in Seduction focuses heavily on Willa Knight’s character development, this time with her having to navigate things without the Abcurses by her side. And, of course, the book starts where Persuasion ends, with Willa being her typical self – creating a mess and getting into problems.
The Abcurses have been helping her get more control over her chaotic powers, and some of those moments are so hilarious; I thought I’d die of laughter. At times, I felt envious of the close bond between Willa and the guys.
However, with everything that happened in Persuasion, the brothers have been called back home. The guys are reluctant to leave Willa alone, but staying would mean facing even more repercussions.
And that’s where everything gets interesting!
I think this book is great because we see Willa dealing with a lot on her own. From getting kidnapped to traveling to Topia to be with her guys, she is in her chaotic element throughout.
The plot also expands smoothly. We understand more about how Topia, the Gods’ world, operates through magic, while getting some hints about Willa’s past and the origin of the creator/God.
The highlight of this book is when she reunites with the guys! Such love between them! The guys need her as much as she needs them, and that pain of being separated from each other? I felt that too.
I love you, too, Willa-toy. I don’t know what I’d do without you. Life—immortality—none of it meant anything until you tripped in and started setting things on fire.
AND THE DEED HAPPENS! FINALLY!
As I mentioned in my review for Book 2, I had been waiting for them to finally get together, and when it happens? SO. GOOD. It was everything I wanted, and more. Gah, I couldn’t stop smiling and doing a cheer routine in my head.
As the book gears towards the end, you really won’t want to put the book down because so many things drop like a bomb! I’ve read it thrice, but I still get giddy as if I’m reading it for the first time.
And that ending! It doesn’t end on a bad cliffhanger, but you will desperately want to get your hands on the fourth book.
Overall, I LOVE this series! And you should definitely pick it up if you love PNR and reverse harem romance!

Seduction Synopsis:
Willa Knight: Dweller? Sol? Accidental evolutionary hiccup?
Willa has never been a particularly useful dweller: she isn’t very good at chores, she isn’t very good at worshipping, she isn’t very good at not having opinions, and she isn’t very good with rules—but none of that matters anymore.
The rules are changing.
The dwellers are trying to make their own way in the world, and Willa can’t seem to help getting tangled up in their plans.
Luckily, she has the Abcurse brothers to help her out—until she doesn’t, and suddenly she’s alone again in a world on the brink of chaos. With the Abcurses gone, she’ll have to rely on her wits, and her sister Emmy, to stay under the radar and survive.
Because someone wants her dead.
But, really, what else is new?
This is a full novel, 90,000 words. Book 3 of 5 in the Curse of the Gods Series
