Publisher's summary
The Ancients, a race of creatures between gods and monsters, are trapped in Canderfey. Fighting for their home, the University, and the remaining residents of the town, Joanna and her coven are in daily peril. When one of the Ancients escapes the boundary, the coven is separated, Isaac traveling in search of a solution to the turmoil of the summer.
As days wear on, can Joanna and her coven keep their warrior spirit, or have they been fighting too hard and too long? Perhaps the Ancients - older, more powerful, and impossible to kill-are an obstacle too enormous to overcome.
Will Canderfey be saved and the coven free to live in peace? Or will the cages, keeping Ancients in and magic out, crumble and set chaos loose upon the world?
Contains mature themes.

Story
Fae exist only in children’s stories, or so I thought. That was before a nightmarish creature of the Fae Realm dropped into my life. He claimed a seven-pointed mark on my skin signified my magical lineage, the bit of DNA my mother passed down. Days after I arrive in the Fae Realm, I’m thrown into a series of trials titled ‘The Devotion’. I must compete with demons, vampires, elves and more who want to claim their place at the future King’s side. I have no interest in this guy, but it doesn’t help that the King-to-be is a gorgeous, brooding fae.

Story
My father called them messengers. He once told me they walked among us and that somewhere in this dark and godless city, there shined a faint sliver of hope. I had only to look for the signs. Well, I’ve spent my whole life investigating the inexplicable and all I've found are the unsettling vestiges of iniquity—the evidence of another world shrouded by the obscure. Purgatory to some, where depravity hides in shadows, and girls like me are little more than delicious bites of temptation. Others call it Nightshade.

Mysterious and tragic, Madame Tan’s menagerie is the only home I’ve ever known. It’s a place where two worlds merge; a twilight zone between Earth and the magical Kingdom of Nerifir. The menagerie is filled with fantastic animals, but I discover that Madame captures and displays sentient beings too. One of them is locked in a crate day and night, not seen by anyone, and one day I learn why—looking at him kills. Even talking to Kyllen is forbidden, but I break that rule. I break many rules for him.

It was supposed to be simple. All of that changed in a single breath. Because it turns out I'm not human. And I just knocked out the power on an entire city block. In a split second, all of my carefully-laid plans go up in smoke. There's no chance for college because I'm being hauled off to Kingwood Academy. They say it's for my own protection and those around me. But I know one thing for sure . . . I'm not welcome here.

Loved it
I fell in love with this series. Slow/medium burns are my jam. I love how it started off with Johanna’s obsession with the library, and morphed into so much more. Book one was exciting and drew you in bit by bit. Book 2 I found slight less exciting but book 3 made up for everything.
I love the magic in this world, imagining, somewhat, like it’s a school similar to Hogwarts, only from the teachers perspective. The magic system in this world is very well done, I would I enjoyed a little more in depth on the details, but I still enjoyed it.
Bryce is probably my favorite character next to Johanna. I would have loved to learn more about them.
The narrators did a fantastic job. If you enjoy British narrators who are good at keeping voices assigned to a specific character, then this is the book for you!

best poly relationship
It took me awhile to finish. There is SO much sex; at a certain point i was like " Ugh can we finish an encounter without sex." that being said i just finished the story and it left me feeling so happy and not regretting the $ cost of the series.
Some of the scene changes can be abrupt so if your mind goes wondering you can find yourself rewinding alot which is what kept happening to me. This is not a stand alone book you need to have read the ones that came first to know and understand what is going on. Lovely is my last thought on the subject.

A great conclusion!
This book was so good! I loved how the unlikely friendship formed and how there were actual consequences that made the big battle actually mean something. If this series were a movie, I'd watch the heck out of it. I'll probably reread later. The only thing I didn't like was the male narrator's voice for Bryce. I also thought they could have used the strivens magic to make a lot of things easier and they didn't and it didn't make sense to me.

Delicious and delightful!
Just finished the last book of the series and it didn’t disappoint. The characters are delicious in their complexity and sexuality. The stories are captivating, interesting and delightfully wicked. I think Kathryn Moon is my new favorite writer!
These books were well written - pun intended - magical and a feast for the senses. The narrators were perfect! I loved everything about this series with one glaring exception - the misuse of the pronoun I when it should have been me!!! It jarred me out of the narrative on every misuse. C’mon editors!!! Dialog is one thing, I’ll grudgingly accept mistakes then, but not in the prose - especially on such a fine piece of writing- about the written word.

A great conclusion to a delightful series
This was a great conclusion for the series. I still would love to know a bit more about Bryce. I'll never know enough I'm sure. But I enjoyed what I was given as well.
The Ancients are really cool. I really enjoyed the lore behind them, and how their powers work and all of that stuff. It was a very fun treat to get that in this book. Overall, there were like 3 huge magic systems in this world, and the little tastes and insight we got into all of them were very neat. I love a good world-building exercise.
It was Isaac's turn to go on a walk-about in this book. Magic is still out of hand in Canderfey, and Isaac sneaks out to go find more Ancients to help them defeat and re-imprison the Ancients that are trapped with his coven. It was fun to see him standing on his own. He kind of felt like a device to bring everyone together, so to get more of his personality was a treat. I guess he's still essentially working to bring everyone together, but he's taking a much more active role in this book.
Tiny spoiler alert: Joanna gets pregnant and I couldn't roll my eyes hard enough. I'm happy for them, sure. I want them to have all of the things they want in life. And even the way in which she gets pregnant makes perfect sense. No magic in Canderfey means magical birth control is just tea, friends. But it did give me the grumps a little bit. I just don't love a surprise pregnancy in a book. For me or for the characters.
But overall the series was a delight and I definitely recommend to anyone who likes to read about interesting worlds and magic systems!

not very exciting
this series was disappointing. almost a DNF. Disappointed that authors feel the need to throw pregnancy in a RH storyline. This series was steamy but the stories were not the best.

this review is for all 4 books in the series
If you enjoy sappy romantic frivolous nonsense this book is for you.
This book had true potential but was really only a really simple and straightforward love story where the love just appears for no reason I can see. Joanna has an almost constant woe is me attitude "oh these men are so amazing and I'm so worthless" over and over again. It gets ridiculous and frustrating really fast. She has no spine or self respect and her conviction that she's worthless without magic sickens me. she does mostly get over this by the end of the series but not in a way that makes sense to me. Then she figures out that she has magic she's imeadelety on board with the relationship. At 27 years old I would expect her to not act like a 13 year old. Then she tries to leave them for their own good and 10 minutes later she's fucking Aiden and promising to never do it again.
Everything in this series happens way too fast and way too easily, there is little to no tension or build up. I almost think she wrote the sex scenes first and the rest of the story was just filler, The only reason I continued with this story after the first book is because I liked the idea of a librarian Wordsmith so much. I wish a different author had had the idea though, one that could do it justice. I don't think this author ever got the advice; show don't tell. It's good advice for authors and I wish she would do more of it.
At first I didn't think I liked the narrator's but by the end of the series I thought they were pretty good, they just took some getting used to.
