Society of Ancient Magic #3
Witch Wars
They say the truth will set you free... but I'm not so sure about that.
Between the vampire who is still very much a threat, to the explosive secret of my origin, and the fact that destroying the Vessel of Truth doesn't seem to have stopped any of the evil it spawned, I'm beginning to think that maybe freedom isn't all it's cracked up to be.
I am more tightly bound than I have ever been in my life, and yet...
Angus and Marco are more than a dream. But I don't have to pinch myself to know that it's real. One look at Van's face is all it takes to see the torment we're causing him. If something doesn't give, I am afraid the bond between these brothers, which has endured two centuries of strife and pain will shatter, severing their tie forever.
They say good things come in threes, and looking at my wolves, I sure hope they're right.

🐺🐺ONE COMPELLING JOURNEY🐺🐺
Hatching hellhounds homer! Fiona delivers one kickass, rock-my-world, tumultuous earth quaking, ground shaking rollercoaster, breaking out the heavy artillery, ammo aplenty, sitting in ready, locked and loaded, jetting this jewel to staggering heights. Hurled headlong into one action packed, hard hitting, heart pounding, pulse racing, adrenaline pumping, nailbiting, jaw dropping, block busting dynamo, revving up the exuberance and confessing secrets, revealing revelations and pledging promises, wrapping this gem up sleek, shiny and tight. The attraction and chemistry ignites with such intoxicating intensity, exploding with boundless emotions and infinite affection, drawing our characters closer, uniting them together beautifully. The characters are complex, genuine and realistic with traits and qualities that balance and blend, with amazing depth and diversity with enough spice to add an extra kick to the mix. The scenes are strikingly sharp with abundant details and descriptions creating a colorful backdrop that so rich and lively as though you can just reach out and touch it. Remarkable job Fiona, thanks for sharing this awesome little gem with us.

Oooh the plot twist in the book!
I have to admit, once the main antagonist from the first two books was dealt with in this book, I wondered what the next 3 books could possibly be about. Well, the final chapter sets up the next book very nicely. Usually, I like to give a brief synopsis of the book in my review, but I’m not sure that’s possible here without spoilers. Suffice to say that Joely’s relationship with 2 of her men, Angus and Marco, is proceeding nicely. Van is still holding on to a little bit of resentment, even though he feels a strong pull to her.
This book’s got it all . . . family drama, sibling rivalry, ancient prophecies, visions, romance, death and some tender hearted moments too. There’s another big plot twist at the end that I did not see coming, and I love when an author does that! This book is short, so it’s a fast read. I still maintain that this series didn’t need to be 6 books. This ending was a perfect place to to begin a “Part 2” kind of book. But I get it, they released this like a serial. I do plan on continuing with the next boo because I can’t wait to see what happens!

Our heroine is the key to an ancient prophecy, which means there are a lot of expectations for her. And living up to the expectations of others is always a difficult challenge.
This is book three of the series. The book does pretty well as a stand alone, but it might work better if you start at the beginning.
This is a reverse harem romance story set at a magical academy. I thought I was getting rather jaded to these stories, but then this one came along and really surprised me. We still get a lot of the usual academy stuff, but the setting and story are a little grittier, if that is the right word, which gives it a bit of an edge. The characters are also well done and diverse, rounding out the story nicely. There are also some steamy scenes which provide a bit of a diversion. Overall, I really enjoyed this story and look forward to the next book.
Highly recommended.

At school, Joely decides to speak up about some truths that will set in moment everything. Joely will have to rely on her connection to her magic and her men to make sure they all survive.

There is so much to this story that I can't write about because it will ruin the story. There is so many twist and turns that happens for the characters. You will be shocked by the reveals towards the end. This story is only getting better with each book, I can't wait for the next one.

Joely and her men destroyed the vessel of Truth, but the war against the evil vampire isn’t over yet.
While her bond with Marco and Agnus is still going strong and hot (especially in the bedroom), Van still keeps his distance.
And what about the prophecy? How will they stop the evil vampire together?
At campus it is now one big mess, because of people demonstrating and not listening to each other and building it up again with each other.
Right in between this mess Joely has to save her men from an awful thing happening. Luckily she gets help. But will she be on time to stop everything?
For the answer to that you have to read the book, you won’t regret it when you are into a good magic shifter story with a reverse harem put into it.
You are also in for some surprises near the end, which I didn’t see coming.

Joely has opened a big can of worms that has the entire campus rioting after the destruction of the Vessel that Underwoood an Joely’s biological father have blamed on wolf shifters. Lots of twists and turns with one very big one at the end with a cliffhanger that you don’t see coming.
Joely and her guys continue to grow individually and as a group, including Van’s change of heart. Evie, Joely’s best friend also becomes a part of the pack. This book takes place over a couple of says after Joely makes her announcement about the Vessel so not a lot of time for world development but a huge amount of individual growth. I can’t wait until the next book is released as the cliffhanger promises a roaring finish.

Lost and Found
If you lose yourself slowly over time can you find all your pieces and be put back together? So much lost was found in this book. Yet so much was lost, that even if found can never be out back together. Joely lost her family and found her family in this book. Not everyone survived and no-one survived without scares. A society lost its power and others found their power to stand against the oppression of a broken society.
This is a fun quick read. This book hit a little deeper for me personally. This is a quintessential battle between good and evil. The end is what happens when the survivors have to keep living vs those that have died and can't move on. The cat stays!!!!!

Ms. Fiona is back with another installment of Joely and her men and boy does she gives some twists in this book! I have loved reading about Joely and her men and getting to read about how much Joely is coming into her own and standing up for herself. The connection and chemistry between Joely and her men continues to grow and strengthen in this book. This book answers some questions but Ms. Fiona has thrown in some new twists and turns that have me on the end of my seat, waiting for the next installment! I would recommend it book but just make sure you read the first two beforehand!

Back with Joely and her men, we can see that Joely is getting strong and able to stand up for herself. The connection among Joely and her men, Angus and Marco, continues to grow, but Van is still not comfortable and is holding back. Although we get some answers to our questions and some of the issues dealt with, more questions are raised and we will have to wait until the next book to get those answers too.
Grab your copy and dive in to this exciting story. There is always so much going on, and twists and turns added to keep the reader from getting complacent as the author takes us into totally unexpected directions!

The closer I came to the end of the book, the more confused I became. This is NOT a bad thing though. I was just unsure of what else would be coming our way. There were moments that the story lagged a bit, but overall it was very good. I did have a few moments of confusion over things that weren’t shown in the book but was able to pick up the story easily enough. I definitely didn’t see that coming at the end—any of it, honestly. This is something I loved. I can’t wait to see what comes next for these characters.

I loved this story although it seemed that everyone went crazy in this book. I liked seeing Jolie and her guys get closer to each other thought way they had to go through the craziness was wild. But it was a good story and I read it in one sitting as I had to see what would happen next and was not disappointed with the twist or two at the end. It was amazing and a great way to end this book and set up what is coming next. What a blast.

Joely and her guys are back in book three of the Society of Ancient Magic series. Joely and the guys go through a lot in this book as their relationship is still developing and growing. Joely is getting stronger as she learns more about her magic. The writing is good and the story is filled with mystery, magic, suspense, drama, page turning twists and after that ending I can't wait to see what happens next for Joely and the guys.

The third book in the series affords some closure to the guys plight, but still leaves some unanswered questions. Joely and the guys have come along way and Underwood is finally meeting his match. It's a fast paced read with several twists. I volunteered to read this book via Booksprout.

Great read
This was an amazing but very short addition to the series. Quite a few surprises in this one and a crazy one that I did not see coming. So ready for the next book already. I still have too many questions

The characters have evolved. Some of the evil ended. I can't wait for the next installment to see how they handle the rest.
