The sea demigod, my sworn enemy, now carries it with me and leaves a trail of dead bodies behind to keep me—and my secret—safe.Then the God of War returns to the Academy. Obsessed with my uniqueness, he steals me from his … uniqueness, he steals me from his son’s bed to make me warm his.
So war breaks out between the war god and my demigods.
If we survive the brutal battle, my mates will soon learn the truth about me is dirtier than reality.

“Now, I need to get you naked.”
The Demigod of War held my gown, and I raised my arms for him to pull it off my head carefully. It would take some effort since the gown hugged my every curve.
A tearing sound rent the air before I could stop him from ripping my gown into two pieces.
“It’s an expensive dress, Axel!” I cried.
“I can afford to buy you thousands more,” he said, gloating, yet his voice remained seductive. “I’ll buy you a thousand gowns tomorrow to replace this one.”
I had a feeling he was going to tear off all of the dresses Héctor had provided for me. He couldn’t help it. The demigods were all territorial and possessive, and Axel was one of the worst.
“That’s not the point,”I shouted in dismay. “I loved this gown. And you should give the money to the poor instead of buying me dresses. I don’t need any.”
“You’re so beautiful,Cookie.” His hot mouth stole the rest of my protests, and his strong fingers thrust inside my liquid heat.

5 stars for Magic Fury by Meg Xuemei X. This is book three in the Half-Blood academy series. I love Marigold and all her witty comments. This book took some unexpected turns for me. A lot happened that I did not see coming at all. I can not wait to read the next book, I need to know what is coming for Marigold and her mates. I am still thinking Paxton is my favorite. “ “I’ll take care of you, Buttercup.” Paxton’s words brushed against my cold skin. “No matter whether you like it or not.”” The only thing I can say is have some time to read before you start because you are going to want to keep reading.
Lord this is one heck of a ride. It just keeps getting better and better. It is an addiction that you can’t get rid of and you don’t want to either. It is extremely well written and the characters have grown so beautifully. I love Marigold and her four hot demigods. They push the boundaries and give so much back. This series is one fantastic series that needs to be read.
I absolutely loved this book and cannot wait for book 4 to come out. You will laugh, cry and be on the edge of your seat throughout this entire book. The sexy times are just as good as the sweet times as well as the knife edge that Mari needs to walk or thinks she does anyway.

Magic Fury (Half-Blood Academy #3)
Loads of action in this one, again! I really enjoy this series & this was a good addition, with a few big twists & shocks included!! We get to meet a couple of huge characters too!! The interactions between the Demigods & their Mate are sexy, as always, but they’re also trying to be more understanding – so cute!! I can’t help it, I absolutely adore Hector!!

Excuse me while try to gather my thoughts… This one took an unexpected turn, and now I’m dying to find out where the story goes from here. How long until the next one? If it isn’t coming out tomorrow then it’s too far away for my nerves to handle. I try to be patient with my authors because I know that genius doesn’t happen over night, but this wait just might kill me.
This isn’t a story that can be read before reading the other books in the series, so please start with book 1, Magic Trials. I also recommend buying the entire series all at the same time so you won’t have to wait to dive into the next one. Also, these stories might have the word “academy” in the title, but they aren’t really for younger readers. There is a lot of hot, graphic action between Mari and her men. Please know what you are diving into before picking these up.
There were a lot of surprises in this one. People I thought could be trusted can’t. People who I thought were pure evil might not be. Situations I thought I had figured out took a sharp left turn. Everything about this one was a surprise, other than the relationships between Marigold and her men (for the most part), and those between her and her friends. I’m still not totally sure who can be trusted, but I am fairly sure of who can’t be. That’s one of the things that keeps me coming back to Meg’s books. She does a fantastic job at keeping me guessing as to what is truth and what is lies hidden in truths. I also love the way her characters are both so strong and so insecure at the same time. I saw a meme that sums up her stories completely. It said something like, “Knowing it could hurt and doing it anyway is brave. Also, knowing it could hurt and doing it anyway is stupid.” This is what I think about when I’m inside Marigold’s head. She is both brave and stupid, depending on the outcome of her actions. It makes her a believable and relate-able character. She is stubborn, headstrong, brave, loyal, and generous. She is also insecure, slow to forgive, and selfish. Shed wants to stand on her own feet and protect those around her, but she also is very afraid of being alone again. She is a handful, and might bring chaos wherever she goes, but she does it all with good intentions (mostly). It is a good thing that she has 4 mates because I don’t think there is any one man, real or fictional, that could handle all of her many sides. And the more they try to protect her the more she will fight to escape. I can’t always tell who is in the driver seat in their relationships.
My word of advice to anyone before jumping into this book is make sure you have a chunk of time set aside to read it. You won’t want to put it down until you finish. It’s action-packed, full of steamy, passionate mate time, and will leave you with your heart in your throat. Prepare for a massive book hangover, and indulge in some chocolate because Cookie/Rosebud/Lamb/Buttercup is about to take you on a wild ride.
Oh my poor heart! That ending basically killed me..I’m now dead and writing this review from the grave. Seriously, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again each book in this series keeps getting better and better. Jam packed full of all the sass that is Marigold, secrets and lies, action && all the swoon that is Axel, Paxton, Zak & ::: sigh ::: Hector I could not put Magic Fury down. I now have more questions than answers and one massive book hangover! So worth it! Now if you’ll excuse me I’ll be nursing this hangover as I anxiously await book four

******** May Contain Some Spoilers ********
I will try my absolute best to keep spoilers to a minimum or completely out of my review. Sometimes it can be hard to do so.
Holy monkey babies, this was so exciting. I couldn’t put this book down. I have to say Meg keeps out doing herself with each book in this series.
Marigold is still the fierce bada** from the previous books, but her magic is getting stronger. Things between Buttercup and Pigston start to warm up. Paxton is the only demigod that knows Marigold’s true origins. Out of the four demigods Héctor is my absolute favorite. #teamHéctor There is some more kidnapping attempts. Ares wants Marigold and will not give up. There is a lot of fighting and action in this book. I’m very upset with the ending. I know Meg ended this book that way for a reason, but I still don’t like it. But I love Meg anyway! Hurry up book 4!
•••••• I highly recommend this book/series! ••••••
~~ I have Kindle Unlimited, and I used that service to read this book. ~~
