Description

Magick is real. It's also highly illegal - not that I'm worried about that.

Sure, I heal faster than most, and I've got a sixth sense for brewing tea that can fix just about any problem, but my cafe isn't exactly a hotbed of paranormal activity. At least it wasn't...until some psycho attacked me and woke up the freaky, forbidden magick inside, earning me a one-way ticket to jail. Now, a covert magickal university is offering me a deal: my freedom in exchange for help with the Tarot prophecies - cryptic predictions they believe hold the key to stopping a deadly apocalyptic plot.

Predictions only I can decipher. Because the witch who divined them? She died years ago. I should know. She was my mother.

Grab your grimoires, girls. Magick school's officially in session.

All I have to do now is master my crazy powers, decode the doomsday prophecies, outwit a mean-girl coven that puts the psycho in psychic, and survive the temptations of one very naughty professor and three scorching-hot, overprotective mages shadowing my every move.

There's only one problem. If I'm right about the prophecies? Survival isn't in the cards for any of us.

Contains mature themes.

Let the spell of a great listen get to you

Book 1 in the series.
This story is a reverse harem story . Heroine is Stevie.
Stevie weds to find out what is going on and why . Black Magic is following her. She was warned away from an academy by her mother. Her parents were killed . It seems Tarot cards are randomly showing up showing themselves to Stevie.

Stevie has no choice but to go to the Academy , a dark Mag framed Stevie for murdering her best friend. Once she gets to the Academy that where things really take off

The performance of Nicole Poole and Stephen Dexter was fantastic. The way they did each character was great. The voices are strong and addictive

Very fun and entertaining

Not a huge fan of the sexual tension between all the male characters. But the story line is fun and I love the main character. She has a lot of spunk!

Sexy and magical

Highly enjoyed this book. The story lines were very interesting and steamy. Great detail in the writing, which made it easy to picture this magical world and its characters. If you like witches and romance this books for you! Can't wait to read the rest of this book series.

Juvenile *Embarrassed Giggling* Teen Fantasy

The only thing keeping this book from being tailor made for 11-year-old girls is the all too frequent F-bombs and graphic sexual content. Sarah Piper introduces orphaned witch 'Starla Eve "Stevie" Milan', whisked away to a Hogwarts-clone Magic School after being attacked by a rogue mage. Once Stevie is enrolled in the 'Arcane Academy', the Junior-High-level immaturity of everyone involved quickly becomes striking (Aaah.. fond memories of Grade 8🙄). Thankfully, Piper makes her characters College-aged (Stevie is 23) - so the sex obsessions aren't as cringeworthy - but the frustrated-horny aspects of the book are pretty heavyhanded (repeated joking conversations about missing "Mr. Winkie" - her vibrator - after moving to school are illustrative). In addition, trying to interpret Stevie's witch mother's heretical prophecies is an awkwardly complicated plot device, and the elemental tarot mythology magic system is more distracting than anything else. Piper can't seem to settle on a mandate (Is this a coming-of-age story? A "Mean Girls"-inspired friendship exploration? A sexual-awakening tale? A Fantasy Action-adventure? A new-understanding-of-family character evolution?). I was frustrated at the book never managing to succeed at *any* of them.

Subpar narration by Nicole Poole (reading from Stevie's perspective) and Stephen Dexter (doing the male parts) contributed to my "Meh" evaluation of the book, too. Both are undeniably professional - and backed up by creditable technical support from Tantor Audio engineers - but Dexter overdramatizes dialogue and Poole often sounds disinterested (at times, it's pretty clear that she's reading a book lying open on her lap).

Altogether, I can't rate 'Spells Of Iron And Bone' any higher than 4.5 stars out of 10. As a 'Plus' selection (included with my subscription), it was a passable diversion, I guess - but you would have to be a diehard fan of the YA Fantasy/Reverse Harem genres to invest a Credit on it.

[NOTE: When Stevie described herself as having a "Lady Boner" over having a bunch of tea fixings, I audibly groaned. It became evident that stuff this sophomoric just isn't for me]
