Jasmine thought her problems would end once she mastered the cursed pendant.

Ah-ha-ha. How cute.

When she returns to the Magical Creatures Academy after a prolonged absence, she discovers the supernatural community is at the brink of war.

A rogue organization of paranormals wants power it shouldn’t have, leaving the magical world divided … and more dangerous than ever.

Safety is no longer guaranteed. Not for anyone. Not anywhere.

That doesn’t cut it for Jas and her friends. Together, they’ll join the fight.

*** Jas will take you on a wild ride filled with loads of magic, sizzling adventure, sexy shifters and fae, and enough spunk to leave you wanting more.

Never dull

This book was rolling up all the old stories and kept me wanting more. How can we think that the end was coming? I think everything ended the way it should. It was a great book. I finished in one day. I needed to keep reading. I am not going to go into any details because I think this book needs to be read to get everything in.

OMG I loved this! With each book this series just gets better and better and this seventh book is one hell of a wild rollercoaster ride, one that will have you hanging onto the edge of your seat. There’s a ton of action, magic, friendship, romance, sexy shifters, fae, adventure , amazing characters and so much more that I was sad to see it finish until I found out there’s gonna be a spin off series! Yay! A great ending to this fantastic series!

☄️☄️ONE THRILLING ADVENTURE☄️☄️
Scraping scooter! Lucia unleashes one ground shaking delivering with this turbulent tilt-a-wheel, laying out heat galore, magic aplenty and ruthless drive, hooking you from start to finish, skyrocketing this gem to staggering heights. Perception and attributes in layer upon layer that you peel back with each page your drawn into this tangled web so intricately and precise, till nothing else exist, blasting this bad boy into the eye of the storm, blowing it into a frenzy with mind-blowing impacts, fusing this gem together perfectly. Maneuvering through the challenging struggles and impressive triumphs, baring the perilous twists and wicked turns, observing the shattered boundaries and crushed perimeters
solidify as limitations are amplified and exploited, secrets confessed, revelations unmasked and promises made, spinning this baby to life brilliantly. The characters are complex, genuine and realistic with traits and qualities that balance and blend, with amazing depth and diversity and enough spice to add an extra kick to the mix. The scenes are abundantly descriptive with colorful details that blend and flow, creating a majestic backdrop that's so rich and lively it feels as though you're part of the story instead of on the sidelines, feeling everything the characters feel. Fabulous job Lucia, thanks for sharing this little jewel with us.

Nothing like Jazing it up!
Jaz has returned to the Academy and it seems as though all the characters were in a contest of who could be the snarkiest while trying to catch her up on what happened while she was gone. Not only that but they each had their own version of a potty mouth. If you are offended by R rated language then you might want to pass on this one. Also, there is a hot romantic encounter with Jaz’s boyfriend Ky, definitely ’R’ rated in case you might have thought this book was just magical creatures nonsense. This book also comes with a bit of gore (yes, yuck!). However, the epilogue is very cute. Gives us something to look forward to.

I voluntarily review an ARC.
This is the seventh book of the Magical Creatures Academy, the books should be read in order.
I love Jas being able to speak her mind without the anti-bad-words-curse again. This girl is so tough and much fun.
I love even more that this is the last part of Jas' story but not the end of stories about this magical world. Can't wait to read more about Enforcers, dragons and so on. In fact it doesn't matter - whatever this author wants to tell us will be worth reading.

Book 7 in the Magical Creatures Academy (Next Level)

Supernatural battle is on the horizon. Reunited with friends. Facing the task ahead. Action-packed conclusion to the series.

If you like paranormals in a hidden academy setting, this is the book for you. It's filled with all the typical aspects you'd expect with some twists along the way. Strong character development and detailed world building. Featuring a strong, say-whatever, take nothing, take charge main female character.

On this final chapter in this particular series we see Jas reunite with everything she loves. A fun journey where shenanigans and best laid plans continue to errupt in hilarity. From more troll bums, fae beaux, and stolen forks you will not be disappointed! Lucia is a goddess when it comes to creating these worlds that envelope you into their realities.

My favorite Jas book!

Seriously strong ending to this part of the world that Lucia has created!!! My favorite of the Jas books. Why and Val are so adorable! Roberta is so cool! I love Ky and Jas's chemistry. The storyline builds to a killer climax and then you get kind of a bonus ending. So good. I will probably read it again because I was reading so fast.

A good conclusion

The previous two books dragged a bit and were so weird they were hard to get through... This one is much better, and ties things up neatly, with reappearances by our other favourite characters. Jas has finally learned a little wisdom and maturity, and she's ready to be an independent adult.

Soooooo goooood!!!

First off so happy to read that there will be more books of others characters from this series but in their own series!! Excellent ending but I'm a needy reader and I would've liked so much more! God I love Jazz, Why, and Val so much and am hoping to see more of them in the future books!!

awesome series

I loved this series! My only small complaint is I dislike when series in the same world don’t have a full resolution between series and instead share story arcs- it makes it feel like there’s no true resolution. However doesn’t detract from this book as I know the story will continue!

A great final installment to the MCA world. This was such a fun series and Power Strike did not disappoint. It was the perfect ending to a wildly entertaining ride. I can’t wait to dive into Mrs Ashta’s next adventure.

Loved it. Another well written series which I really enjoyed.
Can't wait for the next series to start. This is a fantasy author with great imagination. Once started you cannot stop reading, well, until you can't keep your eyes open any longer.
Highly recommended

This one I enjoyed

I enjoy reading, these days it's about all I can do, so finding good books is a pleasure. When the people in the books also grow as they encounter life, that makes it more of a pleasure.

a very good closure

A good closing chapter to this series. Many loose ends tied up with plenty of action, suspense, surprises, drama, magic, revenge, violence. Eager to see the next book series involving these characters.

2.5 stars. Jas is too impulsive for me. There's some apparent personal growth because she's nicer to people now but she still runs off willy nilly. I may stop with the overall sets of books at this point.

MAGICAL CREATURES ACADEMY WIN

This series finished on a positive note. One megalomaniac down, and many more to snuff out. I really enjoyed all seven books on this series.
