As a guild bartender, I can handle pretty much anything--mages, sorcerers, witches, the occasional demon. But show me anything family-related and I'd rather run for the hills. It doesn't even have to be my family.

So I have no idea why I thought spending the holidays with Aaron's mom and pop was a good idea.

Meeting his famous parents is already terrifying enough, but I've got a bigger problem. Students of his family's renowned mage academy are being attacked on the grounds--and somehow no one has seen a single assailant? Unexplained tracks litter the nearby woods, rumors of forbidden alchemy are circulating the campus...and Ezra has been acting strangely since we arrived.

Something deadly is brewing in the shadow of Sinclair Academy, and the longer we take to uncover it, the more dangerous it becomes. But no matter the risk, we'll protect the students.

And Aaron's parents too, I suppose. If we have to.

It’s really 3.9 & 1/2 stars. So much potential just fell flat.

I’m going to start at the very end before I go back to the beginning
So we have a intro for book 6#
MPD agent Kit Morris is ON ZAK’s FARM
the 3 people who gave Tori crap when she first came there are dead. Oh and a touch clairvoyant found the shoes that Tori left. You know, the ones covered in dragon blood?! And that sexist prick of a talking skull is now permanently silent. Don’t you just love how some things work out?
I can’t wait for book 6!!!!

Back to the current book.
I’m not gonna lie. It really wasn’t as good as the pervious books.
I couldn’t wait to read it. On October 11th I set my alarm for 1am, 2am, 3am, 7am and finally the book was up for grabs. I read it before my shift when I was suppose to be sleeping. Then I got disappointed. It’s now almost midnight the next day and I finally finished it. Not because I couldn’t find time, but because it just wasn’t that good.
There was nothing specific to pinpoint, just the pace of the story I guess?
So The Sinclair Guild is a bunch of backstabbing hyenas.
The Sinclair Parents really shouldn’t be parents when it’s clear their only child is just an accessory.
Ezra is an ongoing problem. That got worse.
Kai is Kai. As always.
Sin really needs better taste in men. Seriously.
You have a pixie following you around with mistletoe and you still can’t get laid. Yeah your love life is definitely cursed.

Fun series but the plots are getting rather absurd

Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2019

Ms. Marie's books are a guilty pleasure for me. Full of action, a little mystery, and some pre-teen romance. So two out of three isn't bad. Still fun to read. Except by book five, you can drive a semi around in the plot holes. A great magic academy that does not and can not do a thing until four twenty-something teenagers arrive to fight the bad guys. Ms. Marie turns the formula crank on these without doing a lot of thinking about the plot. I don't mind that much but please don't ignore it completely! Also remember that twenty somethings do a bit more than pant at the sight of the opposite gender. It is ok, even 12 year olds know all about it these days.

We Want More!

I swear this series is getting better and better! I need it to be January, NOW! Demonized is fun and all, but I LOVE Tori!

We start with fun action, before the gang + Sin heads off to Aaron's parents home (AKA THE Sinclair Academy). Unfortunately, things are not what they seem and well, everyone gets hurt in this book.

Tori also really gets to kick ass too!

The story villain is a little overly done in fantasy novels, but the book was good enough that it didn't loose a star for it.

Action, a look into an elite (snobby) Mage school, and Aaron might loose himself to his old ways time and again. Then there is Ezra... and his demon.

The BIG reveal at the end will make you bang your head against the wall wondering WHY you choose to read a series that's not finished yet. WE WANT MORE!

The only thing that kept me from finishing this book in one day was the fact it came out two days before my daughter's wedding. With every spare moment I had the book was in my hands. I love Tori and her three mages. (This is NOT a reverse harem series) It has been a long time since I found an author who makes me want to read a book over and over again let alone an entire series. Annette Marie is an amazing author who's stories pull you right into her world. I love her talented imagination. With each book the stories get better and better. You see the growth of Tori and her friends over the series of doesn't happen right off the bat it's slow and painful sometimes just like real life only i feel like this is far more entertaining. I suggest reading everything this author writes.

Team Ghost

Wow, this author really knows how to suck you into her stories. The initial entry into this series threw me since Tori is human. Annette Marie didn't cave in and make her the savior of the world with awesome cosmic powers. Tori is an amazing heroine because she acts. Maybe she's not thinking things through enough, but she's the person you want at your back when things are dicey. The author really knows how to create all of her characters. The villains are properly villainous and the heroes have enough flaws that they aren't two-dimensional goody-goody types. I love that in past books, she made the Crow and Hammer guildmaster and his immediate crew mature but totally badass. And then she threw in The Ghost in the second book. I am in love. When Tori kept pushing all of his boundaries with her usual lack of sensitivity, I had the most laugh out loud moments of any books in the series so far. This particular book was Ghost-less, but was a great development of all the main characters. Wherever Tori ends up romantically, I accept the author's decision on development, but I am very much looking forward to the next book and reading more about my personal favorite druid.

Loved it!!

Annette has done it again! Another amazing book.

Tori and the gang are heading to the Sinclair Acamedy for the Christmas holiday. Of course all is not as it seems, leaving Tori and the mages to investigates the unusual goings on at the Academy.

Tori is already a badass lead, now that she has been training with the boys, she is really coming into herself.

The slow burn romance is exactly that, slow burn. However, in this book we do get a good idea of what direction the romance is heading.

We get to see a little bit into Aaron's background, and to be honest, he is a bit of an ass in this book. I love that we get to see more of Sin in this book and the development of her and Tori's relationship, Tori was definitely in need of a female friend.

This book will have you at the edge of your seat, laughing, crying and wishing your life away for the next book! I for one, can not wait for the next book.

Annette always has me wanting more!

Pixie Mistletoe!!!!!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 11, 2019

This book was a rollercoaster of emotions for Tori. Without giving away spoilers.... pixie mistletoe!!!! Woah! I wasn't too keen on meeting Aaron's parents. They were a bit one dimensional but it gave you some insight to his character. I also confess to not understanding all the transmutated spirit palava but the story itself was really good. I'm looking forward to the next one!

Toris and her 3 mages have gone to spend Christmas with Aaron’s parents in their super fancy castle / school/ guild. It is not exactly what they were expecting and they end up in far more trouble than they want or need once more. Will they ever have any peace? I doubt it!

The characters and writing is so good and i really want Tori to have her HEA. I haven't warmed to the new series in the same way yet but am prepared to stick with it in the hope it emulates these books which are so good.

Give me more Ezra please

Great book full of action & we get to meet Aaron’s famous parents. We get to see a little romantic situation with Tori & Ezra! Hopefully in the next book we’ll get to see more. Well written & a good read.
