I don’t belong here.
No one believes me.
I’ve been charged with a crime that I didn’t commit.

My name is Harper Valentine and I’ve been framed for a crime against my Coven. In a world where witchcraft is regulated and black magic is banned, there is no room for anyone who rebels against the system.

Here at Banebrook Coven Reformatory, the only thing crueler than the guards are my fellow inmates. Two of these sexy warlock inmates, Brax and Gage, are trying to claim me for their own and the temptation is killing me. At the same time, I’ve caught the eye of Rowan, the Associate Warden, but this relationship is strictly business. Catching feelings is the last thing I need right now.

Unless I solve the murder of my coven-sisters and prove my innocence, I can kiss my freedom goodbye. But how can I do that when I’m trapped behind bars?

This book..just wow!! This author is easily becoming a favorite of mine.

I’m not a huge fan of witch books. Most of them are the similar to one another if not the same thing over and over again. But not this authors! She has a way of creating new worlds that just suck you in. Worlds that are exciting but scary at the same time. She creates witches and warlocks that are completely different and unique. Making her stories refreshing and so much more engaging. You won’t be disappointed reading this story. It captured me from page one.

Harper is like any other 20 year old. She’s unsure of herself and where she wants to go in life, she’s artistic and compassionate, fiery but yet quiet. Did I mention she’s a witch?! She’s the daughter of very powerful coven leaders and isn’t sure that’s the path she wants to take. Then there’s Gaga and Brax, warlocks, who are just to die for. They are extremely loyal and protective, strong and brave, drop dead gorgeous and flirtatious. Did I mention they like to share? Ikal, the demon, who has skin as dark as coal, beautiful gold eyes, perfect white teeth, and horns! He’s funny, straight to the point, and quite the trickster. And Rowan, a human with a life debt to pay back, and assistant warden. He’s a seeker of justice, protective, loyal, and honest. They are all diverse character that don’t fall flat. Absolutely make the story!

This book is action packed from the get go. And everything you think you know just might not be what you actually know!! So many moments that leave you gasping and asking yourself just what is going on. Wonderfully written in a way that this book just flows so easily.

A must read book and a must read author!! You won’t regret it.

For adults only, warning contains triggers

Harper Valentine goes to prison for killing her fellow coven members during a ritual that she performed. It is a crime that she cannot remember and a crime whose memories could not be retrieved to use against her or to prove her innocence.

Despite the lack of the existence of real proof, Harper receives a life sentence to a co-ed prison, designed for prisoners who know magic. Haper does not know what to do, especially when her parents disown her.

How and why would a sweet young virgin witch collect a harem of male sexual partners willing to protect her and prove her innocence?

If you like sex, a lot of sex in a book, this book is for you. The plot trying to prove Harper’s innocence is woven lightly through the book with Harper’s sexual-coming-of-age prominent throughout the book.

I receive a free ARC. This book is for adult only readers. The tale contains death, violence, spanking, sex with an older man, sex with two partners, and sex with a demon. The magic is incidental, an undercurrent in the plot.

Pretty good. Definitely different in a good way.

I enjoyed this book. For some reason I have a thing for paranormal prison rh books. I absolutely loved the twins and Ikal. The confrontation with the warden was fun. I really enjoyed that scene. In fact, between that scene and the brothers antics, I laughed a lot. I also got annoyed with Rowan at times and angry with the warden. My only complaints are the pacing and that I would’ve liked some kind of resolution with her coven and parents. Her dad’s reaction always a bit extreme. This was a solid 3.5 stars though.

Magic, a spell gone awry and an ancient grudge drive this story along. The heroine is innocent of the crime she committed and now she must prove it. The adventure is just beginning.

This book does have graphic sexual imagery and discretion is advised.

I did like it and am volunteering a review for the author.

This book had a great storyline and fantastic likable characters. It was a little boring to me though. Idk if needed more suspense, mystery, or action but it's just missing something. By the end I still don't know the reasons for the person's actions. It just felt incomplete.

Spellbound was a good read, with a likeable FMC and gorgeous men. The story had alot of good twists to it. I definitely enjoyed the read but I feel it could have been just a little better. The backstory to the villain needed more explanation, and the ending was to easily a HEA. I would've like to have seen more in this book, but honestly I enjoyed reading every moment of it as it was.
