This was such a great book -insert crying emoji- i don't know how to properly express my love for this story but it was sooo gooood. Our heroine Cassiopeia accidentally releases a Mayan god of death named Hun-Kame from a prison and embarks on a quest with him across Mexico and California so he can win back his throne and its set in the 1920s! She's stubborn and craving adventure and escape from her boring life where she cleans and and does her mean grandfather's and male cousins bidding, he's a newly awaken angry immortal engaging with the human world more than he has ever done before and is on a quest with a young woman who isn't afraid to give him attitude. There is adventure, humor, Mayan mythology, Mexican history, magic and a slow burn romance.
