Mad Magic Saga #3
Wicked Ways
Josie Barton is in mortal danger. Ensnared by Nepenthe's mind-control enchantment and forced to turn on everyone she loves, William Barton was the last person in the world she expected might come to her rescue. But her older brother seems to be hiding a lot more than just the truth about his grim fate all those years ago, and his plans for her now may be far more sinister than Josie dares to imagine.
As the most powerful faerie nobles fall one-by-one, whispers of an ancient terror now resting in the hands of Jezebel could signal the end of all hope. Allied with some new, unlikely companions, Josie and her beloved friends must prepare to battle not only for their own lives, but the fate of the world. Withstanding the scourge of the skiia may require them all to face their darkest demons, and banishing it entirely could cost them all far more than they ever dreamed.
In a deadly game of wicked ways, vicious vows, and mad magic, Josie Barton must shoot to kill.

Excellent
If you loved the first two, you will love this one, too.
Some surprises in store. No spoilers, but you'll learn more about some of the characters.
Moves at a good pace. You won't want to put it down.

Good way to wrap up the series
Always enjoy Nichole’s writing, good adventure and yet solid characters that you can understand and feel. Looking forward to more!

This was an intriguing and twisty book. I love how it kept you guessing what was next. The characterization was wonderful and the storyline superb.

This was the continuation of Vicious Vows and was better than the last one. This felt like a mostly complete story anyways (or at least the last half as this book and the previous could have just been one). I cheered for Josie, Zeph and Eldrick, and their merry gang of misfits. I saw most of the “twists” coming but was able to enjoy it nonetheless. I still found Josie to be annoying but more palatable than earlier. I liked that there was some win some, and some lose some.
It makes me wonder if there will be another book in this series forthcoming. If so, I’d read it, but if not, my heart wouldn’t be broken. This one felt like stuff happened!

An emotional rollercoaster... A book about love, friendship and family secrets... revenge and forgiveness... magic, hope and despair... I really enjoyed this book!
Eldrick and Zeph have been my favourite characters from the beginning of this series... but all characters are wonderfully fleshed out ...and the moral messages sit well with me.
I enjoyed the balance between the romance and the war scenes...and the writing style was interesting! I found the overlaping of the POVs unique!
The narration tied the bow for me! Overall, I am very happy to have read this series! :)

Outstanding story!
The only down side to this story is that isn't a 4th book (yet). I really hope Nicole is/will be writing several more books in this series!

Yeah, no. It was fine and I kinda liked it... But it wasn't good. And if I never hear the term, "licked their teeth" again it will be too soon.
3.5 stars for the series.

I didn't care for this one as much as the first two (not anything in particular. It was just meh!!) I appreciated the finality of the series, and that's about it.
