Persuasion (Curse of the Gods, #2)
by Jaymin Eve
Willa Knight tumbles headlong into chaos as she navigates the divine—and delightfully exasperating—world of the Abcurse brothers, five powerful Sols who may just be the most frustrating gods she’s ever met. Between her spectacularly bad luck, constant nudity mishaps, and their relentless protective advances, the line between calamity and comedy dissolves in this mischievous reverse-harem fantasy.

Intriguing!
I couldn't imagine for a bit what would drive the young heroine from our hero bear shifter. It's sad, but I lived how it didn't change anything in our heroes eyes for his love, the heroine. Find in this one! Well worth reading!

I'm so glad everything turns out all right in the end
This book is more emotional than the others have been. I'm so glad everything turns out all right in the end. I wonder how everyone will feel if Mae and Doc break up? I can't wait to read Tanner's book.

LOVE
I love the story of Kelsey and Teague. Mae is always meddling in other people's lives. Kelsey and Teague were together in the past but Kelsey ran because she lost their baby. She though Teague would hate her but he never stopped loving her. Teague wants her so badly but doesn't want to push her and also doesn't want to be near her if their not together. She finally tells him but he knew all along. Such a romantic story.

Teague
When I started reading the book I was like poor Teague in so much pain because of Kelsey. When Kelsey explained why she left Teague without a word I was like Oh! I loved the whole book I couldn't put the book down until I was finished.

Good book and series
Persuasion is book 3 of Elle Thorne's Shifters Forever series and tells the story of Teague and Kelsey. Who once were together till secrets and misunderstandings torn them apart. Kelsey moved to Bear Canyon Valley to start a new job running a B&B. When Teague shows up to renovate the place she wonders how she's can be around him and not tell him why she left him two years ago or that she hasn't gotten over him. Thorne has created strong characters that definitely do her story justice. I enjoyed getting to know them and felt that they carried the story forward well. Some of my favorite parts
