Story
Ariel Kimber has settled into life with her family and coven. Everything seems to be as it should, and she finally feels like she's exactly where she needs to be in her life. Her dad is awesome, and she loves getting to know him. Her guys are the best, and she falls deeper in love with them by the day. Her job at Fortunes for the Unfortunate does not suck, and she's more than happy to spend her days there. Her guardians have become family to her, and she finally thinks she's living the good life. But, like everything else in Ariel's life, that goodness does not last.

Sage is just done - done with the abuse that her mother puts her through daily, done with always being so alone and done with being one of the youngest humans to get an Imprint Tattoo. Only a small percentage of the human population over the age of 18 ever receive one, and they only appear when a soul-changing event happens in that person's life. Sage's first one showed up when she was nine, yay for being weird!

Hi, I'm Alexis Delaney. I'm your average 17-year-old girl. Except I can see the dead. And talk to the dead. And push them away and, well, help them move on. For years I've been struggling to survive the souls still roaming around. The shitheads always seem to find me. Moving from town to town every few months never helped either. More dead just always find me. But things are changing for me now. I'm moving in with my uncle Rory and cousin Tara. I'm finally going to be able to do normal teenage stuff I've been missing out on. Right?

Growing up in Emerald Lakes, population 682, had been safe and comfortable. Running my own magic shop and making a living off my green witchcraft, I have no complaints. Sure, there’s my ex, who never understood the word "no", but there’s also the lovable and eccentric townspeople who feel more like one huge extended family, and let’s not forget my boy-crazed Gran who keeps us all on our toes. Strange, unnatural things are brewing in Emerald Lakes, and I can’t ignore the sinking suspicion that something life-changing is headed my way.

When it comes down to acclaim in the yearbook, my class rank would probably earn me my only entry, but probably very little else. I don’t wear cosmetics, do my hair, or really give a damn about my appearance in general. I don’t need to be cool, and I’ve managed my high school career navigating all the different groups from the nerds to the jocks to the theatre kids and the band geeks.

For 18 years I've suffered at the hands of the Hunters. They've done their best to break me, to tear me open and unleash the terrifying monster that lives within. Until the day they go too far. When a desperate escape leads to another brush with death, I'm forced to place my trust in the hands of four formidable strangers.

But the secrets I carry are deadly, and my past is a twisted, evil nightmare better left forgotten.

All I wanted was to find answers to who I was. No one knew who had abandoned the gray-eyed baby with fiery red hair and a cry loud enough to make a man's nuts retract. I moved to Arbor Falls to find myself. Little did I know I'd be thrown into a world I didn't know existed. A world with wolves at each other's throats and enough pack politics and danger to make my head spin. Then there's the fact that I have more than one mate. Not all of them accept me because there's one gigantic problem: I'm not what they expected.

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.

Unfortunately, not all people from magical bloodlines have powers, and at 22, I’m several years past the age they usually appear. So I’ve resigned myself to a boring, magic-less life. Then something strange happens. I get stuck in the middle of a bar fight, and instead of just punching the guy back, I blow a hole in the wall. So...I guess I do have powers. But they’re unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. This shit is definitely not normal. And it seems the magical authorities agree. I can go to school, learn to control my magic. Or they’ll take it away. Permanently.

When my mother decided to pull me out of school, I didn’t say anything. When she homeschooled me, isolated me, kept me fearful of my peers, I followed along. When she packed me up and sent me across the country to live with my grandmother in the one-stoplight town of Lee Vines, I did as she said. But now that she’s left me here I’m on my own. I can make my own decisions. Make my own mistakes. And that includes if I let in the four boys that live next door.

So happy to see the progression of the coven!!
Definitely one of my favs of the series so far! I enjoyed seeing Ariel using more of her powers, getting more comfortable with her own body and with the guys. So many adorable moments (along with exasperation with some of the guys hahah) and the steam finally picked up! I loved the vulnerability we saw in this book but also the strength shown by Ariel and her guys. The coven is finally coming together as it should be.
The plot develops more in this one, especially regarding the Council and their plans moving forward. I wanted to scream at my phone as I was listening to this one because of the audacity of them and I hope we clean slate because a new regime is needed. I was so happy to see Marcus come back into the fold (I wonder when they are going to finally tell Ariel what Rain was doing to him) and I hope he can remain in Ariel's life because I think he keeps getting the shaft when it comes to Ariel (because of Rain). I was intrigued but confused by the 2 new characters in the coven, intrigued because their tie in with Rain (so heartbreaking!) but confused about their relationship because its not like the others. I do like how they have already proven themselves in this group and can't wait to see what happens next.
No new comments in regards to the audiobook. I think this series could have been more spectacular with a male narrator but I understand keeping it to a female narrator throughout the whole series. I think Melissa does a good job, but she isn't my favorite because of her rendition of some of the guy voices. Definitely a solid 4 stars though for the narration!
On to the novellas before diving into the next audiobook! Oh and make sure to go to the author's fb group because there are some extra scenes that really add to the story (like Christmas!).

Love the story and this series
I better get a fantastic addition to the series was just gets better and better. the steam is heating up as well as the story I can't get enough of these characters . I absolutely love the way that it's written you really fall into this world with them. And this is one of those Seiresif you can just keep listening to over and over again and just be in that world with them. Ariel is really fighting her place in the magical world with her magic with her coven with her family. I can't recommend this book in the series enough . The narrator does Ariels voice justice.

fantastic story of Ariel continues
I really loved this series by Mary martel and Ariel is a strong young lady. listening in order is a must here since this book 5 in the series. A lot of things happen here and she gets her bodyguards Trenton and Simon. She gets closer to Dash and Quinton even more. Must listen.
