The powerful wizard knows I am bound by the magic of the realm and must obey. But Nox of Pendlecroft is about to learn this is one willful witch who won’t go down easy.

I loved this Box Set! Dru and Nox are both sexy and funny. With a nice dash of kink!
Book 1 I absolutely loved this book!! When I first read that it was an accident arranged marriage between a dom and an unsuspecting sub, I was curious!! Let me start by saying this is a witty & funny book!! Dru’s inner-monologue and snappy responses are great! She’s smart, strong, and independent but she yearns for more! Nox...oh, Nox! He is pretty much perfect! Yes, he likes to be protective and give out some spankings, but that's as far as it goes. He is genuinely loving & gentle. He's brilliant and powerful. Also romantic and very swoon-worthy! 🥰🥰🥰 This is a quick and passionately romantic love story! Book 2 Funny, Sexy, & Even More Dom Nox😉I loved this continuation of the series! Even though it is a standalone it is made better by reading book one! Dru & Nox are furthering their relationship as well as discovering more about the past and the world/realms of witches and humans! This one has a lot more sexy times and naughty chamber times! 🔥 be prepared to see what happens when Nox lets his emotions run wild. The ball is wonderful and so is seeing more of their extended family! I am so excited for book three & Roanoke!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Book 3 Fun conclusion that has even more Dom/sub action and mystery!! This series never loses it fun, with, and humor!!
This is a new author to me & I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed reading this absolutely amazing box-set that has three wonderful books in it. The plot is well-written & very entertaining throughout the interlinking story-line. There is some good scene descriptions & world building. The well-developed characters are likable with good interactions & chemistry between them. The secondary characters offer good support. There is: a magical realm, a human world, a powerful wizard (Nox), a willful witch (Drucilla), Nox’s mother (Regina), a demon (Grover), a binding ceremony, a accidental arranged marriage, a villainous wizard (Bertrand), family issues, humor, magic, mystery, intrigue, drama, suspense, adventure, action, deceit, betrayal, devious plans, violence, conflict, jealousy, domination/submission, discipline, spankings, some BDSM, contentment, love, steamy scenes & a satisfying conclusion.
I love the chemistry between Nox and Dru. The kink, romance, punishment, spankings and pleasure in a single book. All these combined together is what renders this trilogy dark and make it amazing to read.
The steamy scenes and thrill make the book more captivating.
Included in this box set are three paranormal books: The Sorcerer’s Willful Bride, The Sorcerer’s Willful Wife, and The Sorcerer’s Willful Witch.
A spell not intended for Drucilla (“Dru”) Lucienne, who was comfortably going about living her life in the human world for the past 7 years, will change everything. Their mothers were twins, so when they were born, their names were intertwined. Her cousin/best friend, Lucienne (“Luce”) Drucilla, had decided to go through a broker to find a husband based on a “heritage market value” match instead of for love, which may come later or you can use a love spell. The brokers memorize family histories and get you the best “deal”. Dru tried to talk her out of it, but her cousin was determined to do this. The powerful wizard selected was Nox of Pendlecroft from a grand old wizard family. Dru worried that family was such a bunch of snobs that Luce’s new husband might forbid their friendship! The binding ceremony in 2 days could not be undone – she really wished her cousin would reconsider. He won’t even be there at the ceremony, but the binding by their families makes it forever!
When Dru suddenly popped in, Aunt Ermagard was in the middle of saying the binding spell. “I forever bind…” Dru’s dress knocked a figurine off a shelf as she cursed her klutziness. Aunt Ermagard saw her and blurted, “Drucilla!” She immediately realized her terrible mistake and tried to correct it by saying, “Lucienne, Lucienne Drucilla…” but it was too late. A rose gold wedding band had already permanently attached halfway around Dru’s finger.
Nox knows that Dru is now bound by the magic of the realm and must obey. He intends to take advantage of that fact. But I, as the reader, am delighted to learn that our willful witch heroine has no intention of making things easy for him and will make him dearly regret his assumptions.
Because I am dead set against “domestic discipline” or any other kind directed toward grown- ups, I did skim lightly over the books and skipped any “nasties”. However, I really love the humor and the story line, and this seems to be a worthwhile set from what I did read. Take your chances and enjoy the prospect of the nasty wizard getting what he is due.
I loved this boxed set! I loved other books that I have read by Susannah Shannon. The mystical quality that happens in her stories never cease to capture my attention. These stories start with The Sorcerer's Willful Bride. Drucilla aka Dru, a witch who grew up in another realm other than the world as we know it. At her cousin's arranged marriage binding ceremony, Dru's aunt mistakenly says Drucilla instead of her cousin's name and Dru is instantly and through magic bound to Nox, the groom, an erl and powerful wizard himself, who was supposed to be her cousin's husband. Dru subsequently learns that her husband is a dominant, she is intrigued but wonders how they will navigate their new just got thrown together relationship. The set continues with The Sorcerer's Willful Wife. Dru and Nox continue to learn about each other and their families. Thinking that Nox has family that somehow went through a portal in early Colonial Puritan America, Dru teaches Nox how to breach through a portal to the world as we know it, and Nox continues to introduce her into dom/submissive lifestyle..especially when her impulsiveness gets her into trouble. The 3rd book, The Sorcerer's Willful Witch brings Nox's cousin into the mix in the realm as well as magical spells, a contentious mother in law, alternative universes, magical creatures like equus, demons and lurpachons and more. I loved the magic..mystical and wicked within these books. The stories are narrated by Dru's point of view and her sense of humor....she can be quite funny!
Themes of spanking and power exchange are happening in these books..

The story of Nox and Dru as they start out their marriage. These stories are about the witch/fae and the realm they live in and their interactions or non-interactions with humans. Dru’s dad was a brilliant scientist and enjoyed living in the human world and teaching at Harvard, and she wanted to be just like him. She is almost done getting her PHD Harvard, when her beloved cousin and best friend Luce contracts for a husband from fae realm, sight unseen. During the binding ceremony Luce’s mom (Dru’s aunt) mistakenly gets her daughter’s name wrong, and instead says Dru’s name. (The two girls have the same first and middle names just reversed). Now Dru is eternally bound to Nox, an Erl of the realm. But he is also an historian like her so they have much in common, and she hopes they can make their marriage work. Now starts the adventures of their lives. They find human relatives of Nox’s that no one knew about, who have lived in the human world for hundreds of years, and they need to rescue these descendants and bring them to the realm. They also solve a mystery about a young witch who mysteriously disappeared hundreds of years go, and they discover what happened to the lost Roanoke settlement of the 1600’s. This was a fun read, but there is a lot of BDSM between Nox and Dru. Dru’s family is wonderful, loving and supportive, the opposite of Nox’s. But Dru and her family will bring a lot of “humanity” and equality to the palace. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review
Book 1: The Sorcerer’s Willful Bride 5⭐️ Let me first admit that I don’t usually read any type of supernatural book but I stepped out of my comfort zone for this one because it sounded really good. I do not regret that decision one bit! I loved Dru’s sassiness and willfulness and her quick wit had me laughing out loud. I wasn’t sure what to expect once Nox entered the picture but he quickly proved himself to be the perfect amount of stuffy hotness (yes, I’m making that a thing!) that balanced Dru’s quirkiness. I don’t know how but they just meshed and I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen next. Book 2: The Sorcerer’s Willful Wife 5⭐️ I loved jumping right back into Nox and Dru’s suddenly not so boring life. While Dru was still her awesome willful self we also had Dom Nox making a bit more of an appearance which got all my attention. I feel like these books fly by with all the action and steaminess going on! Book 3: The Sorcerer’s Willful Witch 4⭐️ While I loved how this book continued to show Nox and Dru’s growing love and bond I was missing my willful Dru and her witty attitude. Dru definitely took to her new role as submissive wife which resulted in some off the charts steamy scenes. I also loved that we got a little more of both of their families, I would love to see more added to this series!
I really liked reading a fresh take on wizards, which happen to be one of my favorite fantasy genres. Dru and Nox had awesome chemistry and I preferred getting this in a box set because the stories end on slight cliff hangers that would annoy me if I had to wait or hunt for the next story. I also liked that they made it steamy with BDSM flavors, so it wasn't just a run of the mill paranormal romance. The things I didn't like were that it felt too much like were constantly being explained. Like the second something new was introduced, there was a paragraph to more than a page explaining what it was and practically the history of it. It made it hard to want to keep reading the book and if I didn't need to review it I would have put it down about 10% in. I wish I could say that got better, but it did ease up a bit by the third book. Thanks to Booksprout for introducing me to a new to me author.

Adorable yet bitingly witty! Sometimes, you’ve just gotta let fate take its course! This comically endearing book made me smile and was a very easy read. I love the coming together of old world charm with the inelegance of today’s world. Dru is biting in her wit as Nox is adorable in his brand of “innocence”. It is a charming love story of two people who are made for each other and slowly finding out just how perfect they are together. Albeit they did everything the other way around. Mix in some Harry Potter magic and Sherlock mystery and you’ve got a promising story! A funny take on an arranged marriage gone wrong but is suddenly oh so right!
Books 2 and 3 continue the mystery surrounding the family and the magical world as Dru and Nox figure out the inner workings of a relationship versus a dom-sub relationship.
It is sweet and endearing and funny and witty! An easy read that transports you into a different world but also so relatable!
This is a wonderful series that you will read from start to finish riveted This is a wonderful compilation of these three wonderful books that you will no be able to put down once you start reading it is simply packed with mysteries and magic and a whole lot of mischief as well, a truly smashing read. Susannah Shannon is the type of author that is able to bring to life the people that are on the pages of the books she writes and the plots are always so well written that you can easily picture your self in the surroundings and I must say that once you start reading it is simply impossible to put down until reaching the end of the book. I voluntarily received and review an Advanced Reader Copy I thoroughly enjoyed the book and look forward to reading any future publications; keep up all the great writing.
This is a wonderful series with great humor and wit. This is a very enjoyable read.
The Sorcerer's Willful Wife This has fantastic world building that will allow you to escape into the story. I love that this is the second book in the series, most knowledge that is needed is briefly explained. This is incredibly hot and I love the explanation of BDSM.
The Sorcerer's Willful Witch Entertaining with many feels. I like that you get to follow all the characters that have been introduced throughout the series. If you enjoyed the first two books in the series, you will definitely enjoy this book. In addition there is enough recap that you will not be lost if you are just being introduced into this world.

Most original paranormal romance in a long time! It lives up to the title and the characters are funny, quirky, and entertaining. by dinaholympia
I loved Drucilla and Nox. Their story is so full of magic and love as they bumble their way through an unexpected marriage, meeting the merged family, and starting their life together. It’s just like a real marriage beginning except with magic, paranormal friends and family and a witch’s everyday disasters. Just throw in a new witch husband with a little kink for BDSM and it becomes hilariously touching. I would love to read more about these or similar characters. Great world building! Very original. Loved it!

I have to admit that I am very selective when I delve into the PN genre. I really do not like stories that are just plain weird or uncomfortable to read. Thankfully this group of books is anything but weird or uncomfortable. As a matter of fact, this box set is both interesting and enjoyable to read. Due to a serious mix-up in names our heroine Dru is irrevocably bound to her unwanted husband Nox. Nox knows Dru can not undo the spell that brought them together and he fully plans to take every advantage he can away with. What Nox did not realize was that his new bride is no pushover and has no intention of knuckling under for him or anyone else. These three books tell the story of Dru and Nox's marital misadventures and are a series worth reading.
When Dru's best friend and cousin went to the broker to get an arranged marriage Dru tries talking her out of it. BUT when a spell goes wrong and Dru is actually bound by magic to Nox forever she is not happy. I loved Nox and Dru's story with adventure and learning about each other's family, education and desires. Dru has humor that Nox does not understand until later as he does not understand our world just the magic realm. Nox is respectful especially on their wedding night. The trouble and adventure that arises throughout these three books is great. Trying to find long lost family.

I loved this box set. The author has a great pace and keeps you turning the pages right until the end. from a fluke binding ceremony to falling in lust, and then into love, you will be with the characters every step of the way. The author makes it easy to fall in love with both Dru and Nox. And although they differ they are also the same in so many ways. Thes books are a perfect read for anyone who wants to break away from the monotony of real life, and just get away for a while. I will definitely be recommending it to everyone I know.
This review is in no way affiliated with the author. This is my honest opinion.
Susannah Shannon is another new-to-me author and once again I found that I had struck gold!! I loved this set of books about Dru and Nox and the irreversible, married to the wrong person but we have to find a way to make this work, light D/S story! It has snarky humor, magic, time travel to the past and to other worlds, plus we get some history lessons too! All delivered to us via the fertile imagination of this wonderful author! I will be checking out books that she has written in other genres and putting her on my not-to-be-missed list for future books from her in this genre also!

I loved this box set. It was full of drama, mystery, suspense, and sexy romance scenes. It is well written and has stunningly developed characters. I loved Nox and Dru. They have this amazing chemistry that is felt throughout the series. I loved how each story allows us to see the characters growing and going through a set of different mysteries and dramas. It allows us to get to know our characters so much. I adore the support characters as they add so much to the series. This is definitely a must read

This is the 3rd time I've read books written by Susannah Shannon; she has done an excellent job at writing a good set of books; I can’t wait to read more of her books.
The story lines caught my attention at the very beginning and kept me interested throughout the entire book.
I loved the characters.

—>>> Dru’s life living amongst the humans is changed forever with a single, very timely appearance at her cousin’s binding ceremony, and she finds herself bound to a supposedly snobby wizard from a renowned family line, Nox of Pendlecroft. Throughout this boxed set, we get solid depictions of characters and their backgrounds and interactions, as well as Dru and Nox’s love story.
I really enjoyed this story! I am glad that I was able to read all the books together as it would have been disappointing to have to wait for the next part of the series. These books build from one book to the next. Susannah had great world-building and her characters and their personalities are realistic. If you enjoy discovering a hidden world, overcoming difficult situations, and D/s relationships with a supernatural twist, this is the perfect series for you.
Dru wasn't planning marriage anytime soon. She was only concerned with her studies and finishing her grad school. But unexpectedly, she found herself married, which opened a whole new world for her... as well as her husband. Things that they both had to learn quickly.

This is a wonderful collection of stories about Dru and Nox. When a witch becomes bound by a spell not meant for her and becomes the Sorcerer’s bride all sorts of fun ensue. I enjoyed all of these entertaining stories as they figure things out. I received an arc of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
This was a great box set where each book has given us great story lines and wonderful character work. Each book had a smooth flow. This box set hooked from beginning to end. These were the first books by this author that I've read, but they will not be the last. I look forward to more from this author.

I really enjoyed this boxed set of books. The stories are well written and entertaining, and the world building is wonderfully done. The characters are well developed, likable, had great character development, and I liked the secondary characters and they added dimension to the story. Overall, a great story and one I recommend.
Dru was working on her masters until a spell bounds her to Nox the sorcerer. It wasn’t intended for her but she’s bound by it. She’s his bride now and this is their story as they get used to each other as they navigate their lives together.
