Blurb/Synopsis: Out of a young woman’s ambition comes a love triangle that
could destroy more than her heart. Firia has always wanted to be a witch, but even though she’s
a natural in magic, there’s a problem: She’s human. Considered by the elven elite to be inferior, Firia needs an
edge to be accepted into the Magic Academy. Out of sheer desperation, she
summons the demon Varuj, a terrifyingly gorgeous spirit who helps her win the
entrance competition. But at what price?
As the commanding demon does everything he can to penetrate
every aspect of her innocent life, Firia still finds herself drawn to her study
partner, Mae’lin. Not only is the sweet elf completely different from the
powerful Varuj, but their relationship is forbidden.
How is she supposed to choose between the demon she owes her
life to and the innocent elf who makes her a better person?

My Rant: Wow, I did not see this coming. When I glanced at the cover I
though the book would be more middle-school YA but it wasn’t. This story is
dark, twisted and wicked, the magic is taken up a notch and you all know how I love
a good magic story. Firia, I like her but I felt a bit distant to her
character. She has all the qualities of a good heroine but there was some
disconnect for me, probably because she was so unsure of herself and because I was
spending too much time invested in Varuj. Varuj completely demanded all of my attention
in this story and besides he was hot. But he also had a lot of good qualities
but there is a little bad in there too, come on what do you expect he is a
demon. Mae'lin was sweet and kind, I did like him a
lot but all that goodness was too much for me. I love the bad boys what can I say.
These author’s keep you engorged in the
story. I could not put this book down because I always wanted to know what was
going to happen next. There is a heavy
duty love triangle in this story and just when you think our heroine should be
with one guy she is with the next. But hands down I want her to be with Varuj. The sex scenes in this book blew my top; I am completely
fanning myself as I write this. LOL. The plot was riveting and the storyline
kept twisting and turning I felt like I couldn’t keep up. Overall I really enjoyed this story but I need
more, I feel like there were things that were left unsaid or untold and I would
love for the authors to bring them to light.
My Recommendation:
I rated this book 4 out of 5 Purple Rant Hearts and i would recommend this book to anyone that loves a Dark Fantasy Novel.
Jillian Keep is the softer and more romantic side of J.E.
& M. Keep. They love to combine fantasy, scifi, horror, romance and mystery
into exciting and titillating novels.
They are long term, loving partners in a very happy
relationship and because of this; they love to torture their characters. Dark
romance touches all of their stories in one way or another; from elicit trysts
to forbidden love.
