I absolutely loved this book! I was captivated by it and I couldn’t put it down. Oh sweet Shayla, I feel for this girl. She has been through so much with an abusive mom. I was glad she finally got away, even though it wasn’t the way she wanted. I admire her determination, especially when she meets her fated mate.

Shayla finds out she has to go to a magic academy and their we come to know her guys. Her mate Rourke, the dragon shifter. He is so frustratinly a numskull, and his friend the vampire, B

Hexed was a fantastic read! It has it all – an academy setting. Fated mates. Rejected mates. Shifters. Knotting. Magic. Enemies to lovers. Friends to lovers. Forbidden teacher. Age gap. MM. Why choose…

Shayla is a null – born to a mage but showing no magical ability herself. Her only desire is to escape her circumstances once she turns 20 and become someone else, someone not tied to her null status and somewhere she cannot be traced by her mother. However, fate has other ideas, and she might hav

I loved this book! The guys were all so different and great I had a hard time picking who my favorite was... So I made a list - Branden, Arden, Landis, Quade, and Rourke. Yeah, all of them. Each for different reasons.
Branden, he hides so much of his emotion, but you know it is a storm of them inside. I can't wait to see them break free.
Arden, I mean, come on, he is the sweetest from the start. I just love his care.
Landis, who doesn't love a flirt with depth? Landis was my favorite for most of t

This book has captured my heart. Shayla believes she's a null (supe without magic) and only has to wait for her 20th birthday before she can run away from her abusive mother and revolving boyfriends. Her friend Myra convinces her to come to one last party before she leaves for the academy. When she gets there she meets a boy who she believes to be human. They flirt a bit and both feel drawn to each other and one thing leads to another and suddenly they're mated 🤔 they don't even know each others ...more

Wow.

This being the first book ive read by this author i am now over the moon and want to read so much more!

We meet Shayla with big hopes and dreams! Its like girl meets hot boy and then all goes to heck!

I truely love this story so so much, from the way she meets Rourke to meeting the others

I adore Shayla but she sometimes felt a little whiney, dont get me wrong i understand why tho shes been through hell and back, she grew to stand up for herself.

As the story moves on its clear to me not all is

This is the first story I have read by Vale. I really liked Shayla - she is resilient and fierce. She has a plan to get away from her mother, who has abused her most of her life. But when she goes to a party with her friend, her plans get thrown out the window. She ends up mated, rejected, and everyone is convinced she has powers, so she gets sent to an academy to either gain control of her powers or she will be sent to an asylum. I’m not really sure I like Roarke or Branden. Branden seems to wa ...more

Thrilling, enticing, passionate! Just a few words to describe Hexed! I was hooked from the very beginning! Such an amazing plot with the added bonus of some hot smut! I read this in one day cause I just could not stop reading! I HAD to know what was going to happen next! I can’t wait for the rest of the series!!

This was a fantastic story, I was captivated by the first couple of chapters. The story is fast paced, full of action, mysteries and steamy times. Love Shayla, she is a likeable feisty character. Love all the men in the harem too and her relationship with them. Ended on a cliffhanger, looking forward to book 2.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

meh

Meh, book 1 of the series. Was the FMC childish? Yes. Was the book predictable? Yes. There were a few sentences that didn’t make sentence, like she forgot a sentence in between. But I glossed over it. As mentioned the FMC is a little childish/bratty/and just plain dumb at some moments but I will continue to book 2 as it’s all things that I think are just ground pains for many book 1s.

a must read

Do not pass go. There’s no collecting two hundred dollars. You need to stop and read this series because this book starts it off with an earth shattering bang. I’m not even sure why I took so long to read this. Binge worthy to the point where I only got four hours of sleep but who need sleep, right? On to the next book in this amazing, completed, series.

Hexed is the first book in the Shadowcraft academy.

This is my first book by Yve Vale and I'm not sure why I've been holding out on this, but I absolutely LOOOOVED it!! It literally started off with a bang! Shayla is such a strong, sarcastic, and just all around awesome character. Absolutely looooved the guys. NGL, I'm beating myself up for not starting this sooner!
