Publisher's summary

My power could save my friends - or destroy them.

As I start a new semester at Thunderbird Academy, I have a lot to live up to. News of my sisters' courageous fight against the Ancient evil has spread, and now, everyone expects the same greatness from me.

But all I want to do is:

  1. Find my dad.
  2. Figure out why my magic has suddenly gone on the fritz.

It would be a lot easier if I didn't have to keep dealing with the ever-annoying Aiden Lawson. Shifter, nemesis, ridiculously gorgeous. I don't care how he makes my pulse race, I will not be deterred from my mission.

But the war with the Ancients is just beginning, and now, Thunderbird Academy has become a sanctuary as well as a school. Each attack is deadlier than the last, and when the academy ends up under siege, my friends and I have no choice but to fight.

Am I brave enough to trust my magic to save us? Or will my world come crashing down around me by my own hands?

I'm in a fight for my life, and I, Maddie Hawthorne, have no idea what I'm doing.

Welcome to my year at Thunderbird Academy.

Full of magic, adventure, and romance, Of Water and Moonlight is the first audiobook in an addicting young adult paranormal romance series by USA Today best-selling author Valia Lind that will keep you listening late into the night!

Awesome start!

I am so excited for the next book. That ending and the drama that is sure to happen! Loved the main character and her friends. Boy drama. Growling over protective alpha and the girl that stands up to him. Loved it all.

The narrator did a great job. I really enjoyed listening to her.

Awesome narrator, fun story.

I haven't read very many of this genre, because I typically find teen romance a little silly, but this book drew me in! The Narrator was fantastic and really drew out the emotions in the story. It took a little bit to get into the action, but I'm definitely going to listen to book 2!

Solid fantasy novel

I wasn't sure about the narrator at first, but she grew on me. Overall a fantastic story with a strong female lead, supportive friends, and a slow burn romance that'll leave you chanting 'just kiss already!'

Magic, mystery, suspense, and a slow burn romance!

I listened to this one and was hooked right away! This being the first I've read of Valia Lind's, and I wasn't aware I came in on a spin-off, however, she gave enough descriptions, when needed, that I felt like I knew enough to go on.
The world building was great, and I really enjoyed the characters.
The story has a dark cloud over it as The Ancients had arisen after a long sleep of sorts and were trying to take back the world, each group of magical beings and their territories, as quickly as possible. (Reminded me of the darkness of the Death Eaters when taking over Hogwarts.) The magical community of fae, shifters, and witches are scrambling to fight off these ancients and one young witchling, the MC, seems to have something "extra" that could defeat them, once she gets control of herself and discovers what's making her different.
Enter a hot wolf shifter that appears to detest her & she is assigned to for battle training. Their slow burn romance, turned forbidden romance, is a bit frustrating, but that's the name of the game for slow burn, lol
There really isn't a mean girl for this academy, which I enjoyed. The action, mystery, and suspense really kept me listening and I loved the support characters. However, at the end, I wanted to throw my earbuds with the ending HOOK, aka cliffhanger, for the next book! I need to know what happens!!

Witches and Shifters

Others are sending students to Thunderbird like Aiden and his shifter friends. Madison and Aiden have a complicated relationship making strides and taking major steps back. She is learning to get control of her gifts and how to save the students and academy.

Aiden leaves on assignment and returns with a female student attached to him. Can't wait for the next book to see what hppens.

Excellent New Academy Series!

I enjoy YA fantasy and this book delivers! The story sucked me in right away and kept me in the edge of my seat from beginning to conclusion. The story flows at a great pace with enough excitement to keep you wanting more.

Narration was excellent and brought the story to life.

The characters were well developed and interesting. The story was very well written and kept me enthralled until the last page. I was not ready for it to conclude!

I’m really looking forward to finding out what will happen next. Here you will find suspense, mystery, adventure, and a touch of romance. It is full of magic and a delightful YA paranormal Academy series that is very addicting!
