Publisher's summary

Seven years ago, I lost him for good. Now he's back, but is he still the Jay Gatsby I used to know…or is he something more? Something… darker.

Daisy Finnegan is looking forward to the endless golden freedom of summer. No more college, no more pressure, no more worries. But when her cousin goes missing at an exclusive house party, Daisy is all too ready to confront the mysterious host…only to discover the wealthy recluse is Jay Gatsby, her childhood sweetheart—now sinfully hot and impossible to deny.

She could never resist him, and it isn't long before she's entangled in a web of wealth and lies and obsession, culminating in a shocking act of violence that shatters the summer haze and threatens to drown them all.

But it isn't until Gatsby is shot through the heart—and survives—that Daisy discovers the truth of how he clawed his way up in the world: by selling the secret of immortality to the highest bidder. Now with her friends' lives at stake, her own dizzying new powers still volatile, and an unimaginable threat closing in, Daisy will have to face an impossible choice: Side with the man who claimed her body and soul? Or with the monsters who would see him lost to her forever?

An addictive and truly original spicy New Adult retelling of The Great Gatsby with a magical twist.

Great read! Author is an automatic purchase for me.

This retelling of Great Gatsby was good, set in modern times. That bonus chapter was what I thought the whole story was going to be like but was pleasantly surprised.

I really enjoyed this Gatsby reimagining

This was really good. The way Rebecca Kenney can mold something that is already a great story into her own fantastic tale is simply incredible. The merging of the supernatural and scientific aspects made this feel like it could really happen. Great storytelling. The only drawback, for me, was the narrator. She is good at what she does, but she didn't feel like the right fit for thus book.

Very predictable

Predictable plot and story telling. Naive main character had me rolling my eyes. Could not finish
