Struggle & Strife (Mythverse Book 4) Kindle Edition

Apparently when you cause the apocalypse, it’s your job to fix it.

Turns out that killing a god kind of wreaks havoc on the world. Like, our world.

So yeah, that’s my bad.

But I’m trying to fix it.

All of Zeus’ powers went into ten different teenagers, and they’ve got to compete to see who gets to take his place and put everything— and everyone— back into their places. It’s my job to hunt down and mentor the last contestant, a tougher-than-lacquered-nails beauty queen from Wisconsin.

Brandee Jean picked up Zeus’ super strength after getting struck by lightning, which should be helpful to her in the competition. But the others got powers, too. Flying. Teleportation. Virility. Wisdom.

Now she’ll have to attend Amazon Academy, where she'll take classes and compete in different tasks. At the end of it - winner takes all. The losers give up their powers, while the winner becomes a god and an official Amazon Princess.

Now that's a crown worth competing for.

This young adult magic academy fantasy novel features: non-stop action, lots of cute boys, a hero who's a total Darcy, and tons of plot twists to keep the pages turning.

Previously published as Amazon Princess.

Beauty queen Brandee Jean is surviving the end of the world, wearing sequins and surviving with super strength. To her amazement, she's told by Edie that she has inherited a portion of Zeus' power ... and must fight to keep it. And possibly take over the rest of his powers and lead the gods. While pageant life was difficult, fighting for power can cause the prettiest pageant winner to need to fake a smile and kick butt. Fun read!
I really enjoyed this book and can't wait to read more!

If you have read the MOA books this one is so much better! The authors put us more into the trenches with the main character and the book is much more in the moment. After the twist ending i am excited to read the next book!

I like this leading lady more than Edie, I also like the supporting cast better i feel like instead of hinting and implying intrigue they actually experience it. The twists and action make a better read.

3.0 out of 5 stars Hard to Like But Hard to Hate
Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2020

My first and biggest problem with this book is the dreaded cliffhanger. Don't like them. Can't stand them. I feel like I'm being played with. It doesn't make me want to read the next book to find out what happens, it just makes me mad.
That said, I liked the beginning of the book, and I liked Brandi Jean in the beginning a lot. She's a spunky fighter who's had a rough go in a post-appocalyptic world. It is only when we get further into the book that she begins to annoy me with the constant pageant lessons she's learned that don't seem to serve her well at all.
In these academy books, the heroine usually has one of two allies, but Brandi Jean is marginalized by pretty much everyone in one way or another. It was hard to Like most of the characters with the exception of a small few.
The poor horses, too. I felt bad for both Brandi and Whiskey in different ways as well as the other horses in the final trial. I kind of expected what happened in the end. Wasn't hard to figure out who the protagonists were at all. I realized there would be death in this story, but one particular character's death was somewhat gratuitous and, I believe, unnecessary to further the plotline. What happened could've been done without the killing, after all the removal of power was done once without a resulting death.
I like the story in general, it was the way in which certain parts were told that I didn't like. Maybe because I am beyond the YA/NA demographic, these things about some of the characters bother me more. I will say this, Brandi Jean is a strong, resilient young woman, and I hope, since I did pre-order the second book, we are going to see less pageant talk and a lot more badass, more mature Brandi in the next book. I also hope it is a duology with no more cliffhangers. I really want to give the next book at least one more star maybe more.
On the whole, good plotline, just wasn't crazy about the execution of the whole story in certain areas.

I can't wait for the next installment. BJ is a strong, loyal, feisty, beauty queen who tends to look at the world with much different eyes. She was raised by her moms words, and still tries to live by them. I can't wait to see what happens next.

The fight for Zues' powers is on!

During the Apocalypse Brandee Jean's life isn't easy. It gets continuously more difficult as she's thrust into another new way of living at the Amazon Academy.

If you get through all the pageant references you'll be rewarded with an explosive ending.

I'm really interested to see how things turn out in the next book
