About this listen

I was so close to getting everything I wanted - an internship with my uncle, an officer with the special-ops team.

If it weren't for a stupid boy that had to go and make me angry, causing me to turn a certain part of his anatomy purple and sparkly, I wouldn't have accidentally revealed to my family what I really was. What I had been hiding.

Now, my father is making me attend the school he headmasters, a stuck-up elite academy that will never take a bodysmith like me seriously.

Fate may have cursed me with six mate spots to fill, but that doesn't mean I need to tell everyone my true purpose for being at the academy.

If I can survive the other petty circulators at the school that think they're queen bee, and hide my own status from everyone, I just might be able to find the six men that I don't really want.

They might think I'm inconsequential, but I'm determined to carve out my own happiness, no matter what it takes.

RH listener here

So initial I thought it was all moving to fast and they were making the main character too important. I wasn’t sure. Then the more I listened the more I liked it. It’s a little far fetched but the dialogue is good and the story plot is fun. I will be listening to the next book :)

Great story line

Just let all the guys talk and it would clear up so much instead of trying to make her appear innocent all the time- this took up value space in this book. Besides that, I would like more detail about the men. Fade her to the background, she seems like everything she fears- but she's got herself a pretty interesting group of men. I don't dislike the female lead, but she is supposed to be intelligent- I'm sure she would have done all this research on HERSELF, instead of fainting and freaking out when she finds out something new. I'm glad the author didn't go over the top and try to make the character seem "cool" by making her cuss a lot or be wit whiney. Her relationship with her dad and brother made the character likable. Making her a cheerleader was cheesy. I liked the flow of the book and will definitely read book 2.

Great start to an awesome series!

4 Stars

Overall Rating ★★★★
Plot ★★★★
Humor ★★★★
Characters & Character Development ★★★★
Narration ★★★★

Characters: Gabriella, Balfour, Foster, Grey, Palmer, Pearson, Cyrus, Dar

Story: I enjoyed the first book. It took me a bit to get into the main character, but as the story went on, she grew on me. I liked the guys so far and I can't wait to see who is added to the group. I can guess a couple. The plot was good too. It seems like a really interesting take on magic. I can't wait for the rest of the students to see what Gabriella really is.

Narration: Katie McAble - So far I'm enjoying this new narrator. I hadn't heard her before but I can see myself listening to more.

So worth any price!

I loved this book. It was so well done and the characters were phenomenal. The narration was superb with the exception that there wasn't much distinction between her doing the male voices. Cannot wait to listen to the other books.

Funny and fantastic!

This has to be one of my very favorite RH. Gabby is a fantastic MC. I love to see how her relationships develop with each of the guys. I hope the rest of the books are available soon!

In love

So I have previously read this whole series before the audio book was released and when I saw that it was out I bought it straight away. Gabby is one of my fav fmc. She is funny and strong and knows her worth. The narrator did a great job with all the different voices for the fairly large cast of characters. The book is fast paced but doesn't make you feel like you are missing character development or plot. The world she created was new and fun and had a slight twist to the supernatural that I loved. I have listened to this book 3 times now and will be looking for the next books when they come out. I will also say that I do listen to all my audio books at 1.5x speed or higher, this really makes it fell like it flows more naturally to me from the narrator. I know everyone has a preference to speed and mine is that most narrators talk to slow for me. I do not however hold that against any narrator and it does not reflect in any of my reviews as it is a personal preference.

First Addition is a 4 Star Original

I love this book! It’s a fun, interesting story that will have you laughing out loud! I love Gabriella’s confidence, and she’s handling her situation pretty well, all things considered. There are a LOT of characters, and while the narrator was awesome, she probably could have used a partner. Overall, a really good listen!
