Daughter of Isis (Descendants of Isis, #1)
by Kelsey Ketch
Release Date: 10/26/13
Summary from Goodreads:
“Her mouth parted slightly, waiting for Seth to breathe life into her
own body, just like in the story. She wanted him to awaken her senses.”
Their worlds collide in California’s high desert.
The last thing Natara “Natti” Stone wants to do is to start anew at
Setemple High School. She wished she had never left London. Yet the brutal
murder of her maternal grandmother has made her life very complicated. The only
clue related to her murder is an ancient, encrypted necklace Natti discovered
after her grandmother’s death. And if trying to adjust to American life is not
enough, Natti is being stalked by a mysterious, charming high school senior,
Seth O’Keefe, who is annoyingly persistent in his attempts at seduction.
Seth O’Keefe is secretly a member of the Sons of Set, an order that
worships the Egyptian god of chaos. Seth’s blessing from Set, his “charm,”
never failed, except with one person: Natti Stone. Her ability to elude him
infatuates and infuriates him, and he becomes obsessed with the chase. But the
closer he gets to her, the more his emotions take a dangerous turn, and he
risks breaking one of the most valued covenants of his order. The punishment
for which is a fate worse than death.
The adventure this unlikely couple becomes engulfed in could cost them
their lives and their souls.

Review:
Oh my goodness,what an ending. It is a cliffhanger and I am so wanting more of the story.
Natti unknowingly holds the key to unraveling an ancient secret in which Seth's father,Sean will go to any lengths to obtain.I have to say Sean is one of the book villains that I absolutely despise and wish I could jump into the book and bring him to justice. My heart and mind want to desperately stop him. He is arrogant and ruthless. My heart raced as I could barely read the horrific acts he was committing.
As Natti is slowly pulled into Seth's world,my heart was racing with anticipation of was going to happen to them. Little does Natti know that this boy has the potential to be her undoing or her savor. Seth is of the order of the Sons of Set whose enemy that they strive to eradicate is the Daughters of Isis. So what happens when their worlds collide?
