Publisher's summary

Each new term at Blackbriar Academy is a new beginning - but this year, my new beginning could be the end of everything I love.

I’m settling into my new routine, and everything in my second year at Blackbriar seems great - until it is very suddenly not. What’s supposed to be a fun school-wide trip ends up being a huge betrayal by my own flesh and blood. I barely escape with my life. Now I’m out for revenge. The bloody kind.

The Order is close, and they’re watching my every move. They want the very magic that courses through my blood. They won’t stop until they have it all: my magic, my power, my meteorite. And they’ll kill anyone that stands in their way. But I won’t go down without a fight. They don’t know who they’re messing with. And when I’m backed into a corner, I’m deadly.

They say blood is thicker than water. Whoever “they” are, they have never met my family. With my men by my side, I’ll fight until my last breath to keep what’s mine. And if they dare touch the ones I love, there will be a bloody reckoning. I’m done playing nice. If the Order wants a war, I’ll give them one.

The Hex of Blackbriar Academy features an alternative relationship dynamic that supports our badass heroine's right to choose more than one man. Expect heart-pounding action, breathtaking magic, deadly assassins, four drop-dead gorgeous men, and most importantly, a young woman’s journey to find justice, self-discovery, and freedom.

I am so frustrated!

I like every one in the group, EXCEPT for Wren and how the narrator narrates her.
I cannot stand how entitled and bratty she is and I honestly might scream, if she mentions her past with the trolls one more time or refers to herself as a bull with horns again.
If she doesn’t want her guys to be protective, then she should stop being so dumb, self centered and short-sighted.
I seriously wish that Savannah had been the main female character, she is so much more interesting.
She seems genuine, kindhearted and strong. Savannah is way more deserving of the guys, whereas Wren should just be killed off or at least get a reality check.
I really want to know more about the guys and Savannah, because I really like them and the world building is quiet interesting, but also pretty predictable with a lot of clichés so far, yet still enjoyable.
I wish I was able to just stop and not have to spend any more credits or money on this, but once I have started a series, I also have to complete it, so I hope the next books are way better.

Intrigue and Fun ..

I think I like Soren, Ren's Asshole, the best. But all of Her Men are something to behold. I love that they each bring different things to their relationship and fighting.

Worth the wait!

I just finished listening to this and I can't wait for book 4 to come out

really like this series.

I really enjoy this series. I also enjoy thus authors other books. I wish I didn't have to wait a mystery amount of time for the next book to come out, but alas, no choice. I love the character development that is happening and love the expansion of the powers. all in all this is a great series so far.

Great read

I just love this series it's got me glue to my bed LOL I can't wait to read them 10Actually Listen to it Thanks for making a great story can't read to read the rest of the series

Amazing storyline 👏

Olivia Ash knows how to write a pull you in interesting story. Plus choosing Amanda Dolan to read this series is the best!! Ren is still in Blackbriar, going into her third year. She still has those four delicious men, but only sexual relations with three so far. The men are all friends with each other and aren't quite aware of the situation altogether. This is a can't wait for next book kind of series.

Hex of Blackbriar Academy Bk 3

We find Wren and her men in Wren's 2nd year at Blackbriar Academy - it starts out good but the Order is getting too close - they appear to stop at nothing to get the meteorite blood that is flowing through Wren's veins and will stop at nothing and kill anyone who gets in their way.

She is not the girl she used to be now that she has her men and her mage training not to mention her awesome fighting skills. Getting to know her father again is a blessing and a curse, but Aunt Patty is just evil and doing her best to get Wren's power for herself.

Seriously repetitive phrasing…again…

I’m getting really tired of hearing about Wren “blowing a raspberry”… can we please expand our vernacular already??
Aside from the ridiculous amount of repeated phrases, it’s an adequate read. Some character development, back story, and (finally) a hook up with the “sexy nerd.”
I’m still having difficulty picturing the characters as adults, but otherwise they are all endearing and fun to follow as these books progress.

Loved it!

Another great story by Olivia Ash. Such a great writer. I really enjoy her books. Amanda Dolan again did a great job narrating the story. I love the way she portrays the characters. Excited for book 4.

Exciting romance

Love Wren. Not sure why author likes poly dynamics without multiple people in an encounter. Minor point in the story really but for the problem everyone seems to have with it. These people are in college and a different species. They don’t have the same cultural norms.
