My clients at my vet clinic have always called me an animal whisperer. I’ve never questioned it. Until I started hearing monsters too.A man came in right at closing with a sick dog. The dog told me why he was sick and I was able to treat him. I had no idea his owner would kidnap me. I had no idea his owner had an entire dungeon of monsters he wanted me to treat. I’ve met a minotaur, a mysterious … treat. I’ve met a minotaur, a mysterious kraken, a phoenix, and this really massive spider.
I can hear them too. If monsters are real and I can talk to them, then what am I?

This is an exciting start to a new series. There is amazing world build that is vivid and unique. River is a very interesting character. I am very excited to read the next book.
This book was absolutely fantastic, I loved the characters and the Greek mythology coming to life on the pages, the petty squabbles and the blatant flirting that happened throughout the story. There is a cliffhanger when River finally meets her father and learns what she is.
River has a gift where she can talk to animals and they can respond to her. So River used this gift to be a good veterinarian. But what she doesn’t know is why she can do this. Hades comes from the underworld with his three headed dog Cerberus to have her treat him because he is sick. When River treats Cerberus the dog, Hades then takes River to the underworld with him so she can talk to the monsters there that are being held prisoner by Demeter.
River meets all the monsters that Hades is friendly with and he learns how he can help to make their lives slightly better while they are being help prisoners by the evil Demeter who is the mother of Persephone the wife of Hades whom she is holding as a prisoner.

Great world building and unique and enticing characters as you would expect from JB. The book overlaps somewhat with her recent Scorchwood series which was also excellent. There’s no heat in the harem yet, just setting up the relationships and it looks like we’ll have some FF action for a change. Good to see. Plenty of action, drama and suspense that ends on a cliffhanger. Already wanting book 2. Luckily this author never ok eaves you waiting for long.

I was immediately drawn in and did not want to put the book down. You get visited by some characters from other books and the ending is a doozy. I cannot wait to see if there will be more set in this world with these characters. This is a wonderful mash-up of mythology meets the modern world. It really makes you think of what could actual be real or not.

I absolutely love River. The entire book was so good I read it in one day and need the next book ASAP. 10/10 would recommend to all my friends
Wow…… just wow! This book is absolutely amazing! I loved it right off the bat when we found out River was a Veterinarian and could talk to animals. I always wished I could do that. River is a strong FMC that stands up for what she believes no matter who she is talking too. Very well written with lots of mystery and action. But that cliffhanger….. I cannot wait to find out what is next for River and her monsters!
