Publisher's summary

Shameless cravings. Wicked pleasures. Can she survive a bond more powerful than love?

For the survival of his clan, Jack Fialko needs to mate with a witch of equal power before the end of the solstice. He finds the perfect woman, except for one serious flaw. She has no idea how to engage in the dangerous magical foreplay - the duel for sexual equality. The task of training her in two days seems insurmountable, especially while other warriors are trying to kidnap her.

Zoe is a warrior-healer hybrid. The trouble is, she has no idea what that means. It’s all a harmless game until, one night, a dominant, brooding, sexy-as-sin warrior touches her and ignites a shameless craving to mate. Zoe must decide if the scorching chemistry between them is worth fighting for.

Can love and lust exist together in an exhilarating magical combination? Or will their bond combust?

Warning: The book contains mature themes, steamy and sexual scenes, and graphic language.

Magic, Danger & Lots Of Steam

I enjoyed this entertaining book. The storyline is filled with magic, drama, danger and lots of heat, you will find your attention captured and kept. I thought that the relationships were complex and there was good chemistry between characters. All together very good read. I liked the narrator's voice and found it pleasing to listen to.

Oh my gosh!

This series was amazing! I loved listening to this series. I will most likely listen to it a few more times. I love this author and have read and or listened to most of her books. Always looking forward to the next book that comes out by her or catching up and reading one I haven’t gotten to. Totally recommend listening or reading any book by her!

Very good set of books

Very good set of books with a wide variety of story’s for a wide range of readers. Great love story’s that are great to listen to.

Good story

I really liked this book and story, however the narrator needs to listen to accents she had a Nee England accent for an Australian accent it was hard to listen to. I'm not bashing her but she needs to listen to different accents to better know her characters.

What a great deal!!

4 books for 1 credit! You can’t beat that. I thought the series was excellent. Interesting and different world of witches. The first 3 books are about 3 brothers and them finding their perfect mates. The brothers are fire witches and each of their mates are different element witches who when they mate with them their magic combines. The last book is Olivia book. She is the healer to the fire witch clan. She finds her mate a different way but it’s still magical. I thought the first book was the best of the 4. Overall the series was very entertaining and filled with mystery, mayhem, and plenty of sexy times. Totally worth the credit.

Dark Vortex

This is a hard review for me because the stories are REALLY GOOD, yet I felt like some parts were cut a bit short. Still things were all complete, nothing was left undone. Maybe a bit more background in a few characters would have been good. I’m so glad to have taken a chance on this book. And the 4th book was my favorite. I laughed so much.
The narrator was good. But there were a few times in book 4 that I had a hard time knowing who was talking because there wasn’t any distinction in the voices.
Definitely would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in some paranormal sexy, fun and adventure!!

Just Loved It!!

I really like the narration style of this narrator. Well done. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
Good listen, great narrator and good characters. Everything flowed nicely. I liked it a lot.

Great series filled w/ magic, intrigue, & mystery

Really enjoyed each of the books in the series. Loved the mystery, magic and romance.
I was not impressed by the narrator.

Fantastic Series!

The four books in this series center around the Fialko brothers, Jack, Jace, and Josh, who are warrior witches as they each find their mates. Their mates are each unique and while the brothers possess fire powers, their mates each have a different power (Earth, Air, and Water). The final book features Olivia, the healer for the Fialko brothers, and Mohegan, another Healer and a member of the Guild which acts a bit like a policing force for the witch clans. Lots of steam, magic, mystery, suspense, and action in each individual story.
The narrator did an absolutely amazing job bringing the stories and characters to life. One of the things I most enjoyed were all the different voices. A lot of the characters are from all over the world and the narrator really nailed the different accents from Russian to Australian. The narration is smooth and flowing yet animated and full of emotion when called for. Overall, this box set is a delight to listen to.

Magically Delicious!

I’ve read and enjoyed the Dark Vortex (Mated by Magic) series and was hoping that I would be able to get it on Audible one day. Imagine my surprise when this gem came my way!

This is a great romance series to be read and listened to. Packed with romance, sexiness, action, secrets and magic with an engaging plot, that will quickly have you happily immersed in the lives of each of the Fialko brothers and Mohegan.

At my request, I was given a free copy of this audio book for my unbiased opinion.
