Thorne Witches #11

Celestial Magic

Rate this book
Family patriarch Preston Thorne is forced to return to the earthly plane when the Otherworld is invaded by evil magic.

And he’s not happy about it.

He’s finally met the woman of his dreams and was certain he was only one roguish smile away from luring Selene Barringer into his arms—or better yet, his bed.

Now, the new existence he’s built is threatened and his afterlife is turned upside down. Or rather, right side out, because suddenly he’s back in the land of the living with Selene by his side. In danger of losing all he holds dear, Preston is in for the fight of his life, and pacts with old enemies need to be made to battle the greatest Evil of all.

T.M. Cromer is a multi-award-winning sorceress of the written word and fearless architect of high-stakes paranormal romance. With a flair for twisty plots, slow burns, and swaggering heroes hot enough to scorch the page, she conjures stories that hook readers and refuse to let go.

Whether it’s witches, sirens, or magical assassins, her characters never behave, and neither do her stories.

When she’s not dreaming up new ways to ruin her characters’ lives before crafting their HEA, she’s daydreaming about swimming with orcas or cackling over a particularly clever line of dialogue. Come for the magic, stay for the heartbreak, and maybe fall a little too hard for a man who only exists on the page.

I enjoyed this series. I do recommend reading the series in order.

I loved Preston. I was so sad when he died. I was so excited for his book. It was so hard to read Preston's death. I wanted him find his one true love like the other Thornes. He deserved happiness. I also feel that Selene had a rough life on earth. Even though they both had a rough time on earth the first time around, I want them to have a happy ever after.

I enjoyed the audiobook. The narrator was fabulous.

Loved it!!!!

I have now read this whole series ... and I'm sorry to have reached the end of it. The light at the end it that the author has promised more extraordinary stories involving this cast of characters in the future along with spin offs. This is a must read if you follow the Thorne Witches!!! Preston finally gets his HEA.

A Thorne loves only once...

An amazing conclusion to this chapter of The Thorne Witches. Preston Thorne is a delight. Gentlemanly, handsome and a fierce love for family make him an excellent addition to this series. Once again, the Thornes must gather family and face Evil. Also involved, Selena Baringer, his new love, Alistair Thorne, the Aether and various other members of the Thorne family. I adore every book in this entire series and am anxiously awaiting the new Irish series!

Preston and Selene

Good but again I felt let down with the oh so big battle. For every good they had to have an evil to go to the Nether. I wanted more from when Damien took the evil inside himself. Like how did it effect him from his POV?

The evil counterparts got their peers stripped and turned into creatures to watch the innocent.

I would have liked to have had a little chapter dedicated to Preston holding up to helping the brother and family.

Their was so much drama, excitement and some romance. What more could you ask for. I.hope this is not.the end of this series because I am attached to the Thorne family. But this was an amazing climax in the family stories.

Terrific

The family is complete now. Preston is one of my favorites in this series, after Alistar of course. But Damian is becoming close to him every appearance.

The eleventh Thorne Witches book is about Preston, father of three of the Season Sisters. Preston fell victim to a Thorne enemy earlier in the series but has remained involved behind the scenes. While in the otherworld Preston finally meets his one true love. Selene does not make it easy for him. He is going to have to work for his HEA. Isis actually ends up pushing them together. An evil force invades the otherworld and Isis sends Preston and Selene back to the world of the living to find a way to get rid of the evil. Of course he enlists his powerful family and the Aether to help. Some of the biggest Thorne enemies are also back in the mix. The book is full of all of the themes that have made the Thorne Witches such a great series - true love, devotion to family, and paranormal action. I highly recommend this book and series. Even though each book features a complete HEA romance, for the most enjoyment I suggest reading the series in order from the beginning.

A wonderful end, well sort of, to the Thorne Family. I really enjoyed that most of the characters returned to unite against one last big evil.

And Preston finally finding love brought tears to my eyes. He finally found a woman who loved him completely and above all else.

I cannot wait for Pints and Potions where the Thornes will make more appearances.

Preston finally gets his own HEA. Unfortunately, he finds her when their world is on the edge of being destroyed. All the Thorne witches, spouses and friends will need to work together to banish this evil foe. We also learn that there 7 elemental magics. Along with air, earth, fire, metal and wire there is also electricity and aether. Another great story.

Another wonderful story that didn't fail to capture my interest!

First I want to say I loved learning more about Sabrina, the sweet little daughter of the Aether, Damian. I hope we get to learn more about her, & her as an Oracle. I even think it would make a great book series with like her as a teen or young adult, being an Oracle.

Beyond that, I almost feel like a broken record at this point LOL, after writing so many reviews in this series. I'm always using words like awesome wonderful, great, & etc... plus saying things like: I couldn't put the book down, I loved how this couples story was told, & I can't wait for the next book. I've said these things for other books in this series, & I'm saying it for this one too!

Celestial Magic, another grand slam from author T.M. Cromer! If you're new to this series I suggest starting at book one so you don't miss out on the fun and excitement. If you're up to date on the series, OMG, you're going to love this one! Preston Thorne and Selene are tasked with returning to the living world to find a way to extract the evil that has invaded the Otherworld. The gang's all here in this book. Thornes, Drakes and Dethridges all join to aid Preston and Selene in their quest. I loved every page of this book and look forward to my next book by T.M. Cromer. Celestial Magic is book 11 of the Thorne Witch Series but can be read as a standalone. This is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Exceptional ending to a sensational series

Loved Celestial Magic.
Full of everything we have come to expect from this amazing series. It’s finally Preston’s turn at getting his turn with his one true love. However Selene is ignoring every attempt Preston makes. Preston is not put off in the slightest. The otherworld or not he wants his chance.
Things change and Preston and Selene are sent back to the earthly plain on a mission to save everyone in it.
Everyone plays a part and we get to have a little of every character and more.
I couldn’t put this book down.
So glad we get more from the Thorne witches in the new series.

Thornes only love once and when they do, it is powerful. I’ve enjoyed the character of Preston since the first book in this series. I mourned his loss and was glad to see he had a love interest in the afterlife. When he and his intended are called upon to battle evil, it means getting the band back together. With the Thornes, their extended family and friends, the world is in pretty good shape. Preston deserves love because he has given so much of it and this book is truly his own.

Fantastic!!!

Celestial Magic is about Preston and Selene and the rest of the Thorne's. Every character builds so we'll with each story and to watch their characters evolve and grow is amazing. This series is a must to read.

So, now we know what happened to the big bad from the previous book. Celestial Magic sees two characters who were previously lost to us brought back and I'm so glad. Both Preston and Selene deserved a happily ever after and I'm so happy they got it. More shenanigans with baddies and some allies and some redeemed souls all have to band together to fight the ultimate evil, even if they don't want to. Beastie was as always, a delight and I really hope Castor finds his one true love at some point.

A fitting end to the series. Having read the first book in the spin off series, it's just as promising.

Preston has returned to earth with Selena to help rid the witch community of darkness that could obliterate all the witches. The whole gang get together with the help of Damian and true teanwork. As always, the family love shines all round. Little Sabrina is a sweetie.

I have enjoyed the whole series and have been there for each of their journeys. Great series.

Absolutely Wonderful

It took me a while to read this book because I was greatly saddened by Preston's death and the thought that he and his soul mate were forced to spend eternity essentially dead. Thankfully T.M. Cromer has written a truly magnificent ending and adventure for these two. I loved how she wove the story that allowed them to be together and truly happy. Even better she made Serqet and Isis friendly towards each other again!

OH MY what an amazing story! I didn't want it to end.
There are a couple of unanswered questions that I hope someday we will get the answers! What happened to Preston and Selene? What about Annabelle?

This series is amazing and brilliant. I loved every word and chapter of each book!
Once you start reading the series you won't be able to stop until they are all done!

Highly recommend

When you are dead, trying to find your soulmate and the Goddess Isis is your consort there is no telling what can happen. Preston was doing the bidding of Isis when he saw his soulmate in the distance and stopped to chat. Only she was not having any of it and refused to speak. Can it happen? Love in the OtherWorld? Recommend this book and series.

Grab book one and I promise you won’t stop until you have all 11 stories read!

Fantastic series

I binged this series because it was so good I couldn't stop. Powerful and hot magical family with all kinds of magical enemies. There was snark, love, tears, and hilarity mixed with epic battles. And gods and goddesses, can't forget them. I loved the entire series!

Good read

Book 11 has all the adventure, danger, mystery, magic, and romance as the previous books. Plus way more danger and possibly the end of the world. But the Thornes once again band together with the goddesses and 1 god to overcome the ultimate evil. This author really knows how to hold your attention. Highly recommend.

Prestons story was pretty great, especially when he and the other witches and warlocks are going after the source of Evil itself. Their adventure is traveling to the Netherworld was something different and Prestons love interest in Selene was something quite unexpected and sweet. I can only imagine who else is going to get some romance after him. Onto the next book I go!

This series!

You did it again! I'll have a book hangover in the morning but totally worth it! The way you created this family had me hooked from the beginning of Summer's story. Don't even get me started on the covers!
