In a world where magic is strictly divided along gender lines, with men dominating the arcane arts and women relegated to domestic roles, two unlikely individuals challenge the status quo and forge an unbreakable bond amidst a backdrop of danger and intrigue.

Onna, a young woman with an extraordinary talent for spellcraft, defies societal norms and excels in her studies, surpassing even the most skilled male students. However, her abilities are met with suspicion and hostility, as women are not permitted to wield such power. Undeterred, Onna sets sail for the city-state of Hexos, seeking a place where her talents will be recognized and nurtured.

Tsira, a troll outcast with a hidden magical gift, yearns for acceptance and a place to belong. When she stumbles upon a half-dead soldier in the snow, she forms an unexpected bond with him. Together, they embark on a journey to unravel the mysteries of their shared past and uncover the truth behind a series of mysterious murders that threaten to tear apart their newfound friendship.

As Onna and Tsira's paths intertwine, they find themselves drawn into a world of political intrigue, hidden societies, and ancient prophecies. They must confront their own prejudices and fears while navigating a world that is not ready for their unique powers and the profound connection they share.

    That ending 😫
    Format: Kindle
    I fell into a false sense of security and really thought this was gearing towards a happy ending. Then I realized there’s no work they don’t punish Andrew. I really liked Vale’s character. I don’t normally read books with pregnancy but going into this knowing she was pregnant made it more enjoyable for me. I loved Bishops devotion to her and her happiness. I also loved that Holt and Mercy couldn’t fight their attraction to her. I love scent matches so very much. I’m so curious to see how this duet will end up. And I need to pay more attention and notice that a book I’m starting is a duet to begin with lol

    I just knew there was something about Cooper! I’m wondering if he’s about to be included but damn I’m glad he’s at least not a rapist and creepy guy, he just got called on assignment and had to go! This should be interesting! She’s gonna run and then what’s his face is gonna grab her. I’m worried! Wow that was a great book and cliffhanger! Loving this!

    Fun with a late blooming omega
    Format: Kindle
    I like this book. The story is fun, cute, and sexy. There's just a little drama, some excellent, steamy scenes, and a fairly good relationship building storyline. I especially like how all the main characters are a bit older than the usual 20 somethings I tend to see in this kind of book. Having said that, I wish there were more descriptions of the places, as well as the food in the fancy restaurant. I enjoyed the cocktails at the club, so I missed that kind of detail when Gray took Madison on a dinner date. I also wish there had been more interaction between Lucas and Madison, and Lucas and Rian. It felt a bit lopsided, with a focus on Rian, Madison, and Gray. I wish it had been proofread - there are a lot of typos, but nothing too distracting.

    Madison Deserved Better
    Format: Kindle
    Madison was a beta...except she wasn't any longer. She was a late presenting Omega. And she was struggling. She was tall and thin, not tiny and curvy. She was opinionated. She was everything an Omega was not. After suffering through her first heat, her friends took her to Ardor, a club where Omegas came to safely find Alphas. She's not expecting much but then she connects with a sexy beta. And when she meets his Alphas, they set her body on fire. Maybe, she's found her no-strings-attached heat pack. Maybe, she's found something more. I could not connect with the characters in this book, so their story never resonated with me. And there was no love story; there was sex. Grey made it clear from the beginning that he had a true love and it was his beta boy, Rian. He went so far as to reassure Rian “Say the word, I’ll never touch her again. Lucas can put the babies in her. I only need you, beta boy”. So, Madison was there for babies, no emotions needed. Nice. No, thank you. I want the Omega to be the center of their world, not an incubator. Lucas and Rian weren't any better. After her heat, they let her leave. Not one of them made her feel valued. No one gave her a reason to stay or even offered a cuddle. And the sex didn't even come across as mind-blowing. Madison deserved better.
