About this listen

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.

It’s not you it’s me

Ok I really wanted to like this book. Interesting premise, well written, engaging strong lead, all the things I like in books. However, it is giving off reverse haram vibes and with 3 hrs left I called it quits. I just really don’t like when the main character isn’t into one person. I have a hard enough time with books where it takes the lead time to figure out who she likes but I can’t do several interests, nothing wrong with it just not my cup of tea. So you should really give this book a credit unless you want more defined relationships like me.

If an audiobook was a cursed email chain

This is a dumpster fire in terms of production quality but the story is interesting.

The female voice actor needs to be played at .9 speed other wise it sounds like google translate reading and even then the beginning Im not 100% sure if it was human read. Once you get a couple chapters in she sounds better or you just get used to the cursed half human half Alexa sound.

The male voice actor doesn't read the male voices unless the chapter is from a male perspective so good luck trying to reconsile that. Plus he over emphasizes everything which is a delight to listen to.

I genuinely love this audiobook but I promise you there is nothing quality about it but the actual story. It was well written and interesting but the true blessing is how bad everything else is.

Good but lacking

Supposedly the main character has a lot of power but she keeps getting into trouble only her males can save her from. The action in the storyline is lacking and the sex scenes are precise. It’s an interesting original story line but just not keeping my interest. I feel like I don’t really know the characters or even why the main character is still interested in them after all their lies and secrecy. It’s really promising until about half way through.

Robotic Voice

I would love a different VA, the female voice sounds so robotic it's hard to get into the story. She sounds old for the character she's supposed to be playing, there's a lack of varied intonation. The story is absolutely great but the actor just ruins it. Definitely worth a re-record with a more suited actor.

Interesting concept and great characters!

I enjoyed this story. The world building was wonderful and I enjoyed seeing how the characters interacted. I'm curious to see what new challenges they will face in the next book.

Well worth the read/listen!!

I almost passed this up due to it not having a large amount of reviews. I’m so glad I didn’t! Great story line and very well written. Love the witty personality the female lead has.

I’ve been looking for something to listen to, I had been in a bit of a slump and struggling to find something interesting, I haven’t been able to put this one down.

Loved it!

I like magic fantasy but having studied "real world" magical systems some, it appears to me that most magical fantasy authors have only studied only other fantasy. The Tarot is well known enough I thought this might have some depth, even if the author had never attempted magic. I was not disappointed. Good writing, mysteries, plot twists, characters. A fun read. Looking forward to the sequel!

Better than I expected

I love the story’s plot. It had me not wanting to stop listening. In fact I hoped and prayed it was a longer series when I finished and it is! I’m excited to hear more of this story! The first book set up a nice little cliffhanger to keep you wanting more!
