Summary

Fifteen-year-old Lola just said goodbye to life as a loner. One minute she’s living with her mom in Baltimore and hanging out with her best friend Jane and the next she’s receiving the keys to a southern mansion, boatloads of money, and an ancient family secret. 

She has no idea how she’s going to cope with a long-lost dad, an eccentric aunt, and a drop-dead gorgeous boy that keeps popping up everywhere she turns. Not to mention the magical book and the skeleton key that just appeared out of nowhere....

The perfect gift for fans of Julie Kagawa’s Iron Fey Series or Lauren Kate’s Fallen Series.

Original and Entertaining!

This was my first Marie-Helene Lebeault's book. This is the first book in The Evers Series. This fantasy adventure has an original storyline, clean, and entertaining. I liked the twists and turns in the story. Lola is an interesting character, strong, smart, and determined. The supporting characters are interesting. Valerie Rose Lohman did a great job bringing this story to life. Looking forward to listening to The Academy, the next book in the series.

Fun

I really enjoyed the story. Decent pace, and good characters. Whilst it is a fantasy story the plot is believable whilst in that realm. Was a pleasure to read and I look forward to future books.

Lola’s adventures.

Another Science Fiction series by the author Marie-Helene Lebeault , a magical one which feels to me that I’ve already read it knowing that I haven’t, makes me wonder if a movie or a TV show was made from this series that makes the story feels so familiar to me
The first book of this series is great beginning, the only con that I can comment about is that it’s way to feminine which fits the female author and I got nothing against them only for Science Fiction it’s wrong.

The action started, what next?

Here is hoping for a rapid retrieval of the second audiobook in this series.


Narration by Valerie Rose Lohman for each one of the characters in this creation.


My full recommendations !!!

not for me

This book was not for me. The narration was wonderful, the plot strong, and the setting was just my jam, but there's too little fantasy for my taste.
I was over 50% in the story before real fantasy themes appeared. I expected more from the blurb and cover.
Other than that, I felt there were too low stakes. I always knew Lola was safe, and I have to admit, I was bored often.
