It was a dark and stormy intriguing first chapter. I should have read the other comments first and chosen another word. Tantalizing. Spellbinding. Mesmerizing. ;)

An opening line Snoopy would be proud of. Intriguing first chapter. This feels like a perfect book for a rainy day.

Great beginning! Feels like we're off on an adventure. I'm loving all the details of life, fashion, architecture, etc. And the Egyptomania tidbits are perfect for this kind of story. Looking forward to the next one.

Ooooh, this such is a great start! Reid and Aphrodite are so cute together, and the heavy sense of tragedy and ruin in that opening is just palpable. I'm looking forward to seeing the story develop.

This is an intriguing start, and I’m excited to read more! I love the 1930s aesthetic and the Egyptian motifs as well!

Thank you so much, Bridget! I’m having a hard time not abandoning my other stories to work exclusively on this since it has so many of my favorite things, so I’m looking forward to the next chapter!
