Everafter Academy #3

Once Upon a Devil

Rate this book
No rest for the damned.

With the Festival of Light now over, Satanalia and the Church of Shadows are upon us.

I’ve tried to avoid these for as long as possible.

Now it’s time to face the music and my cruel covenmaster for a punishment that may leave me broken… if it leaves me alive at all.

On top of this, one of the people whose death I’m being punished for isn’t so dead after all, and I’ve got an even bigger mystery to solve than I thought. But every clue just leaves me with more questions.

Where is my great-grandmother Esmeralda? What are the Seven Gates of Hell? Why must I go to Nevermore Academy, the school for villains, to find answers that have eluded me everywhere else?

This quest for revenge is enough to make my head spin. Luckily I’ve got three sexy men, Broin, Lockwood, and Gideon to distract me for a while. As for Lucifer? He says he has plans for me, but I don’t know what those are…

Everafter Academy is a Dark Reverse Harem Bully Romance. Each fairytale creature has been modernized and thrown into a world of magic, depravity, and allure, and Ravyn will never choose which path—or man—she truly wants. Why choose when she can have them all?

Themes: bully, forbidden romance, student/teacher, D/s relationship
Genres: reverse harem, academy, fantasy, fairytale
Heat Level: Scorching-hot, consensual scenes that are for 18+ only.

This Series is Smoking Hot!!! Snow and Clyne are Phenomenal Together! OUAD is book 3 in the Everafter Academy and this is one series you don't want to miss! It's carnal and magical, intoxicating and thrilling! I just can't get enough! I Love this world Snow and Clyne have created, it's the perfect book to fall into and forget the wold for a few hours! It's dark and entertaining, the character are epic! I love them so hard! Rayvn is my favorite witch ever! She is more kick@>> than Sabrina and far more daring than Hermione, this book will have you lining up to praise Satan! Because whew, let us be real, we all know the Devil is a Handsome Man! So many secrets, so much we don't know, gahhhh, its killing me! These cliff hangers are epic! I'm evil laughing (Maleficent style) and Shocked all at the same time! This is just one of those book series that grips you and stays in your head for days! You will be fantasizing over all the deliciousness these villains and heroes get up too and daydreaming of what's to come! I will state for the record, Lockwood is MINE! I call Dibs because that magnificent Beast is extremely intriguing! I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Hot hot hot. Wow what a book and fantastic third chapter in this exciting academy romance. We get to see ravyn and redera together again and the whole plot of this book came out of the cracks. I loved the suspense, the drama, the humour and the whole dynamic of this book. It was one of those books that as soon as you pick up, it's impossible to put down. And that ending had me wanting more and more. I loved the dark magic in this one. The story just expands into a whole new place that you will have to pick your self up off the floor. Ravyn is an awesome heroine. Perfect character and we get a more in depth glimpse of her inner workings in this book. Love love love!

Wow wow wow amazing again

Omg this just gets bigger and bigger and with even more steamy action. Whilst gripped from the start I enjoyed the emotional and intense crazy ride filled with many twists and unexpected occurrences. We see Rayvn and her sister Red come together after Reds death for many events throughout the book (No spoilers) . To end the book on a major cliff hanger ending to totally blow your mind and wonder how Rayvn will come away from such an epic ending. Roll on book four

Third book of this series and I want the next book now. Oh that ending. Really starting to think Ravyn cannot catch a break. Book is just as hot as the other 2. Authors are doing a fantastic job with this series. Entire storyline is freaking fantastic. The amount of steam is just what I love. Oh the characters!!! Love them!!! Especially Broin. I want him. Definitely a must read.

I really do like this series and this book adds a lot new information to what we already know while giving us a taste of what's yet to come. I still really like Ravyn, I love her strength and how badass she is, I also love how she knows who she is and doesn't settle for less be it for her or her friends. I will say that I'm not sure how I feel about Redra, I feel like she knows more than what she's letting on and at the moment I kinda don't fully like her (hopefully that changes). I do like how the relationships with the guys are progressing, while there is still many secrets between them all I do like the progress that's happened so far and how natural they feel (sidenote: I loved that we got Lucifer's PIC on this one and I hope we are more from him in the future). Overall I do like this and I really can't wait to see where this goes next.

You can’t do this to me!!

I was so engrossed in this book, I didn’t even realize I was at the end until the To Be Continued hit me. You cant do this to me!! That was the cliffhanger of all cliffhangers!

This series is amazing, I’m constantly trying to keep up with all the fantastic twists and turns. I will gobble up any and every word eager for the next.

Happy Reading!

I am not amused.

Not even a little bit.

I went into this thinking it was a trilogy and it would wrap up all sexy and perfect.

NOPE. IT'S NOT A TRILOGY. NOT EVEN CLOSE.

And these authors? They just destroyed any sort of sanity i could claim.

I loved this book. Super dark-themed and the sex scenes were quite the surprise. 5 stars. The only thing that sucks is the cliffhanger at the end of book 3 and there was no closure.

This book was released in January 2020. I thought it was the last one. It's not but the authors have given up.
The first book was released in Summer 2019 and the second in Autumn 2019.
I don't keep up with authors' pages or blogs so I didn't know this series was unfinished. I wish authors would edit a warning on Goodreads on a series to mention its indefinitely hiatus.
I looked at both author's pages. Scarlett Snow wrote on December 31st 2020 that she wouldn't co-write the last book and that Tiegan Clyne would finish and publish it in June 2021.
I looked at Tiegan Clyne's Facebook author page and she doesn't acknowledge the series since the release of the third book. Both have released other books since. What the fuck.
I don't support authors who have no respect for their readers.


The biggest plot hole of these books is the royal status of Gideon. There are 6 kingdoms in this universe. We know the princesses and princes of all except the dark one. Gideon is a prince but we don't know of which kingdom. His friends, Ravyn have no idea that he only can be the prince of the darkest kingdom. Come on.

Funny thing is there is a new character and she's also a princess of a place we have never heard before. Make it make sense.

I hate that the only non-white character is a janitor.

Ravyn forgot really easily her mission to find the killers of her family. She knows one of them is at the Academy and she doesn't care at all.

Where's Snow White and why is Sirena not called Ariel?

Need the next book Pronto

This book was amazing just like it previous ones, loved and respected Ravyn , loved and adored and drooled and melted Broin, Lockwood , Lucifer , loved and adored Christopher though the guy needs to grow a stronger backbone and kinda loved Gideon the giant alphahole.

I honestly don't know where exactly Lucifer will end the harem but I wish that he dedicates his love to only one twin no matter how much I love the other one two.

This book deserves an infinite+ stars. From the scorching and explosive chemistry and sex between the MCs to character development and plot this book is an epitome of perfection and splendor. It really justifies the meaning of masterpiece work, and hoping and wishing for the author to please, please and please release the last book soon.

The author did anounce last year that the final book Once Upon a Dream will be releasing this year so I hope and hope and wish and wish that the book comes asap.
I would love to say that this series is Infinite+++ stars worthy but that would all depend how the last book turns out. The book should come out soon, since a lot have been waiting for more than a year now.

I don't typically read reviews before the book because I don't want to accidentally read spoilers, and because I want to form my own unbiased opinion. Unfortunately, I heavily regret not reading the reviews on this series before I wasted my time.

Seeing that the most recent book was released in 2000, I assumed that this series was complete. I assumed incorrectly.

I won't even bother getting into the pros and cons of this book, or giving it a fair review, because the story is incomplete. I am so frustrated that I wasted my time reading a somewhat interesting series, only to be left with so much disappointment. So much so, that I will boycott both of these authors and their other work because I cannot trust them to finish what they've started.

If you're smarter than me, and are reading this review before the series, I strongly recommend you save yourself the frustration and skip this series. The third book ends on a cliffhanger, and the story is left unfinished.

Don’t know what happen but this is the last in this series? Looks like the authors never carried on with this series as I can’t find the 4th book anywhere. Even though on the Amazon page it’s says it should have come out march 2020? Plus suppose to have books from the nevermore academy and those haven’t been published/released either. Disappointing

At the halfway point, things got too ridiculous and I started to quit caring about the story. Should have just skimmed to find any steamy bits, but those weren't all that grand. *shrug*

Each book just keeps getting better and better

First off, this book takes the hotness ratings up yet another notch, helped by the fact that there are now serious feels involved, and omg lockhart, I wish you were real!
Secondly I love how the storyline is getting ever more involved with so many little twists and turns.
I also am loving how both Red and Ravyn's innate characters are evolving (without giving too much away) and can't wait to see what more their journey will bring them.
In case you missed the point of my review I FLOVE this series and am gobbling the rest of them up as soon as they are released. Love love love!

I need my own Lucifer and Lockwood 🤤

To start off, I am not going to bother listing any potential triggers or dark materials in this review for other readers because if you’ve made it this far in the series then it kind of is expected so you shouldn’t be surprised. Now on to the review....

I seriously cannot get enough of this series. There is hot sex, BDSM (both female Dom and male Dom), sexy Lucifer, gorgeous men, plenty of drama and intrigue. This book was my favorite so far in the series. We are learning more about what Lucifer has in store for Ravyn (which makes me giddy) and her family history with Esmerelda. I am starting to understand some of the other characters and their motives more with the POV chapters. I think Lockwood and Gideon will experience quite a blow up and potential fall out with Ravyn once she learns about their history and their origins.... you just better come clean sooner rather than later boys...

I really love all the characters in this book, even Gideon. All 5 of them are vastly different from each other and they each bring something to the relationship with Ravyn that the others can’t duplicate. She has plenty of needs and each man fills a different need for Ravyn. Lucifer has been my favorite so far with Lockwood in a close second. The POV chapters of Lucifer were my favorites. I love him as a character because he appears to be omnipotent so being able to read his inner musings especially about Ravyn was probably my favorite part of the book...besides the scorching hot sex...I love a good smut read. 😍😍

Another fantastic addition to an amazing series. I am eager to read the next one!!! I’ll just be here, rereading the series over and over again until the next book.
