My review of the inheritance games

Book description:

Avery Grambs has a plan for a better future: survive high school, win a scholarship, and get out. But her fortunes change in an instant when billionaire Tobias Hawthorne dies and leaves Avery virtually his entire fortune. The catch? Avery has no idea why -- or even who Tobias Hawthorne is.

To receive her inheritance, Avery must move into sprawling, secret passage-filled Hawthorne House, where every room bears the old man's touch -- and his love of puzzles, riddles, and codes. Unfortunately for Avery, Hawthorne House is also occupied by the family that Tobias Hawthorne just dispossessed. This includes the four Hawthorne grandsons: dangerous, magnetic, brilliant boys who grew up with every expectation that one day, they would inherit billions. Heir apparent Grayson Hawthorne is convinced that Avery must be a conwoman, and he's determined to take her down. His brother, Jameson, views her as their grandfather's last hurrah: a twisted riddle, a puzzle to be solved. Caught in a world of wealth and privilege, with danger around every turn, Avery will have to play the game herself just to survive.

My Review (Goodreads):

Three stars

Jennifer Lynn Barnes created a high-stake setting. Everything is a game. The suspense and the adorable romance between her and Grayson, is just out of this world. However, I would love to see a little more personality from Avery. I felt like she is constantly being rescued, if not she keeps making these illogical moves that gets her in trouble. Come on girl! Other than that, five stars for setting. Who doesn’t love a beautiful mansion, with two hot brothers. Also, I’m going to say this in a non-spoiler way, but the ending with the whole hidden room was a vibe!
