The Gods Who Talk

Seventeen-year-old Tristan Merrifield never dreamed of encountering a sleeping God buried in her backyard garden, let alone forming a bond with her forever. Despite the Merrifield household's rule of no gods or god politics, Tristan accidentally awakens Esme Valentree, a fiercely passionate God, who bonds herself to Tristan. Although this bond brings new possibilities, everything comes at a price, especially from a god. Tristan overcomes her initial hesitation in befriending a god and becomes drawn to Esme, seeing her in a whole new light beyond her divine nature. However, as events around Esme start to spiral out of control, Tristan must navigate through the blurred lines between human and godly worlds. But with gods walking the earth and Tristan's beliefs being tested, how close can she truly get? "The Gods Who Talk" takes readers on an exhilarating adventure that delves into the intricacies of relationships, family dynamics, and the consequences of rule-breaking, while unveiling a fascinating circle of life controlled by gods. As Tristan becomes more deeply entangled in this new way of life, she must grapple with the complex nature of the gods and the sudden attention they demand of her, as well as the implications of her bond with Esme. With danger lurking at every corner and events spiraling out of control, Tristan must navigate through the twists and turns of being blood-bound to a god and find a way to restore balance to her world.

Present day...

"I don't know where Ossieus went to sleep, I assume somewhere far from me," Esme continued explaining, feeling vulnerable for having opened up to Tristan the way she had once done with Rose. She remembered how Rose took the news of the truth, and she hoped deep down that Tristan wouldn't respond the same way.

As they sat on the lawn beside the school, waiting for the bus to pull up in only a few minutes, Tristan had grown increasingly quiet throughout Esme's story. As the truth spilled from Esme, albeit toned down quite a bit for Tristan's sake, Esme began to realize that maybe Tristan wasn't going to respond the way she wanted her to.
