Hide your magic.
Hide your boyfriends.
Hide your real power.


Mallory Serra is in over her head. Finals are coming up, Christmas is around the corner with two and a half boyfriends to buy gifts for, and the Defense Department is still trying to kill them all.

Oh, and she might be a murderer on top of all of that. Fun stuff.

Torn between her growing desire to see things through with Alec, and her fear that getting involved with him will cause an irreparable rift in his relationship with Damon, she has no idea which way to turn. Add in Everett's burning intensity and clear dislike, and a girl just might call this whole "half boyfriend" thing off. After all, Nico and Matt should be more than enough, right? So why can't she stop thinking about Alec and Damon, as well?

Another cliff hanger. Again. Big, what just happened. Again. Getting a bit over these cliff hangers. In every. Single. Book.

Good read

This was a good read and addition to the series. Not a whole lot happens in it though. It was mainly focused on the relationship. Fantastic characters.

Special powers/RH MMMMM/Multi PoV

SYNOPSIS (5 Book Series): The FC, Mallory, lives in a world where there are humans and individuals with magic gifts (kind of like X men). If you are discovered to have a gift then you are immediately sent to the academy to train before being required to join the army as the “country” is always at war. As there is no choice the FC tried to hide her powers but was discovered and enrolled. She meets the MCs at the academy and gradually wins each one over. The story revolves around the development of the FC/MCs relationships, Mallory’s growing powers and the fight to avoid being drafted into the army.

Heat Level: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🍆🍆🍆🍆 The amount of scenes increases as the series progress and there are both single and group scenes. There’s no particular kink but they are well written and hot and do not overtake the story too much.

There are a lot of typos and editing issues that are annoying otherwise the story is decently written but this just wasn’t for me. Whilst I liked Mallory and she came across as strong and capable the overall story didn’t work. It was odd to apparently have the army running everything (where was the government for example) and one particular individual in the army who seemed to be in total control of everything. The underlying “secret” that the MCs would not reveal was simply annoying as there was no real reason not to tell her. When everything came out it was anticlimactic and I had already worked out what was happening.

I found the storyline around the amaroq and all the labs to be confusing (and hackneyed) and it was never really explained why so much time or resource had been put into tracking it down or what the army was trying to achieve (save for satisfying one man’s desire for immortality). Ultimately it seemed to just be an excuse for the author to write in some dramatic scenes. The ending also felt like a let down. Nothing changes and the FC and MCs just hide away - what’s that about?

Each book seems to deal with one MC relationship and have one dramatic scene. It felt formulaic. There are multiple questions left unanswered such as who put the amaroqs in the sigils in the first place and why, at the end, was the breaking of the sigils apparently no longer important.

Whilst I liked the FC the MCs it all felt a bit basic and there was no background given as to their lives apart from some very basic information. I found it hard to really buy in to them or their relationship with the FC.

Not a bad series just not for me

I'm sad this series is almost at an end!

I've been really enjoying these books! The ONLY very minor thing is the odd spelling mistake and a name in the wrong spot once or twice (eg: Damon was talking to Mallory at one point and said "Damon and I" instead of Alec and him, which the reader would only know if they remembered the scene he was referring to).

It ended on a cliffhanger, that thankfully I don't need to worry about since the series is complete (Wooo!), and I'm diving right in! (Who needs sleep, am I right??)

I wasn’t ready for it to end!

As things seem to be going better for Mal and the guys there’s some Crazy magic afoot and they still don’t know who is calling the shots. The final book will be amazing and cannot come Out fast enough!

craziness galore

The 4th installment of this series had just as much fun and crazy as the last 3 books. I really enjoy how much they have all grown and the end was just wow. Hooked and ready to read the last book.
