<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Days before their eighteenth birthday, Arden and Aurora's mother goes missing and they discover they belong to a family of Caribbean deities. Can these goddess twins uncover their evil grandfather's plot in time to save their mother, themselves, and the free world?<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Family bonds create the magic in this stirring fantasy. --<i>Kirkus Reviews</i></b> <p/> <i>It's days before your eighteenth birthday, but your mother is missing and suddenly you have supernatural powers. What are you willing to face to discover the truth of who you really are?</i> <p/> After years of traveling the world, black identical twins Aurora and Arden think they've settled into normalcy in Ohio. But days before their eighteenth birthday, the snarky twins develop powers in telekinesis and telepathy―at the same time that their famous mother, who's on tour in London, disappears. <p/> Searching for answers and determined to rescue her, the sisters unearth truths that threaten to extinguish their bond and demolish their strength as individuals. Can they trust their beguiling, newly discovered British cousins when they barely trust one another? Should they heed the warnings of their immortal grandmother, a Patoi-chatting goddess, who says she's friendly with The Fates and can see inside a person's very soul? <p/> In order to succeed in their quest, these goddess twins must work together, master their powers, and unveil a horrifying, century-old family mystery. Otherwise, they may not live to see eighteen―or their mother again.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"20 Upcoming Books By Black Female Authors You Don't Want to Miss." --<i>Parade magazine</i> " . . . an impressive, commanding novel about Black girl magic . . . <i>The Goddess Twins</i> is an emotive and powerful feminist novel that inspires the innate goddess in every girl." --<i>Foreword Reviews</i><br> "Family bonds create the magic in this stirring fantasy." --<i>Kirkus Reviews</i><br> "<i>The Goddess Twins</i> is a fantastic ride, viewed through the eyes of girls on the verge of adulthood . . .
