Synopsis:
Chaos:
My name is Maggie Raynard. After sixteen years being just plain me, suddenly, when I lose my temper, my fingers become weapons of mass destruction. Turns out I'm a semi-god, descended from Aphrodite. Sounds cool in theory, but when I accidentally put my ex-boyfriend in a coma, things go downhill pretty fast.
Now some new guy named Mac Finnegan has made it his mission in life to continually piss me off. I'm stuck learning how to use my new powers while also dealing with regular high school problems, and with this annoying and super-hot—guy all
up in my business, I'm about to flip out.
But it gets worse. I just learned there's this watchdog council of semis who keep an eye out for any bad apples. They think I'm the baddest one in the bunch and want to take me out before I do any more damage. My nemesis Mac might turn out to be my salvation, only he's got secrets of his own...and they may just kill us both.
Darker Days
A little sin can be deadly...Jessie Darker goes to high school during the day, but at night she helps with the family investigation business.Cheating husbands and stolen inheritances? They’re your girls—but their specialty is a bit darker. Zombie in your garage? Pesky Poltergeist living in your pool? They’ll have the problem solved in a magical minute. For a nominal fee, of course...
When gorgeous new client, Lukas Scott, saunters into the office requesting their help to find a stolen box, it sounds like a simple case—until the truth comes out. The box is full of Sin.
Seven deadly ones, in fact.
They’ve got five days to recapture the Sins before they're recalled by the box, taking seven hijacked human bodies with them. Easy peasy—except for one thing...
There’s a spell that will allow the Sins to remain free, causing chaos forever. When the key ingredient threatens the life of someone she knows, Jessie must make the ultimate choice between love and family—or lose everything.

Darker Days Review:
"Darker Days" by Jus Accardo was a very interesting tale about a young woman named Jessie and her mother. They run "The Darker Agency" where they specialize in dealing with the out of the ordinary situations. When "Wrath" one of the seven deadly Sins comes to ask for help, they don't refuse the offer. As Jessie and "Wrath" try to track down the other sins and the person who opened the box.
I thought this book was very interesting and I liked Accardo's take on the seven deadly Sins. I thought it was definitely a new idea that hasn't been done before and worth reading about. I think this book is a great kick off to the Ember tour. The characters were great. They were interesting and had many sides to them. Jessie is a girl that isn't afraid to take charge and do what she wants. She is an excellent example of a strong female character. I also think that the secondary characters are a great edition to the story. They do well to bring everything together. Accardo has a way of writing a book that you have a hard time putting down. I hope everyone who gets a chance to read "Darker Days" truly enjoys it.
I give "Darker Days" three out of five stars.
