From Annie, Joyfully Reviewed
...A fast-paced story with a high fantasy element {magic and mages} which I really enjoyed with a logical premise: is a soulmate the person to whom we find ourselves attracted, or can it be someone to whom the Universe directs us?
From Maura Frankman, The Romance Studio
4.5 Hearts!...The author presents this situation beautifully and added some very hot sex scenes and an appropriate ending. Serenity is a disturbing character, totally insane, able to use magic and in lust with Devon. Kalen is a more seductive figure, opportunistic, but with feelings for Maggie. This is a very well-done story.

“I love you,” he tried to say, but his voice wouldn’t work. He couldn’t move. Maggie’s hand was around him now, and she started to lower her head. God, he wanted her mouth on him. But there was something wrong. He moved his hips back, but all that did was pump her fist on him. Her grin didn’t look so open and loving now. It looked hard and satisfied. And then it wasn’t hers. It was someone else’s. Someone’s he didn’t want. Her hair changed color, grew longer, a sheet of black down her back. Her jeans and snug shirt turned into a shimmering black gown. Her mouth, rimmed in bright red lipstick, curved. Her tongue came out of her mouth, reaching, and touched him…
