Summary:
Telepathic high school teacher Dorian prepares teen witches for professional casting because going in unprepared is what killed one of his partners. But new state mandates on magical proficiency make it nearly impossible, and Dorian worries he can’t give his students the education they really need. Seeking a distraction from work, Dorian kisses his still-living on-again off-again clairvoyant boyfriend, Milo. Instead of a distraction, Dorian glimpses Milo’s vague vision involving the murder of Caleb—one of Dorian’s new students.
Already devastated by the loss of his partner, Dorian refuses to stand aside and let Caleb die. He searches for clues by delving into Caleb’s mind. Rooting through Caleb’s memories alongside teaching classes leads Dorian to two more students: Caleb’s ex-best friend turned rival and the prodigy with connections to dangerous warlocks. However, each step further into his students’ minds forces Dorian to confront his deteriorating relationship with Milo.
After discovering a link involving illegal casting, Dorian resolves to work with Milo to prevent the impending vision. To succeed, Dorian will have to explore the potential of a future with Milo and find closure on their third partner, whose loss looms between them. But meddling with fate to save Caleb inadvertently draws the warlocks near, putting all his students in danger. Dorian will have to risk his life and gamble his second chance with Milo to keep his students alive.
Review:
Firstly thank you to Love Books Tours and MN Bennet for having me on this tour and for sending me a copy of the book to review.
I've struggled writing this review because I keep trying to start writing it while I'm still reading the book because there's so much I want to say about it and I keep ending up reading more instead of writing. Hence why this review is so late in the day because I just couldn't put the book down.
I absolutely love Dorian and Milo, them individually and together as a couple(sort of) they bounce off each other so well and I can see how Finn so easily slotted into that dynamic.
It's a really well-written book and really enjoyed how magic played a part in this world. It's interesting to see the dynamics of the different magic branches and how the different levels of magic people have effects how their treated( Branchless being teased often for it). I found it clever that we find out about the branches and what their capable of through Dorian's lesson/ pupil notes, it's a brilliant way of feeding us the information without a chunk of info at the beginning telling us what we need to know about this world.
I love how grumpy Dorian is, yet you can clearly see that he cares so much and that's his way of trying to make sure he doesn't get hurt because he pushes away any kind of relationship, and it's been fun to read how Milo pushes back against that.
As I've said I found this so hard to put down, it just kept drawing me in! It's a very engaging story that's very well written. And I was disappointed to see we didn't have the next book yet(I really wanted to just keep reading) but I am very eagerly awaiting it because this is a series I can't wait to see develop.
