My name is Raven Winters and I’m a mage. Who the hell knew? When I somehow summon fire in an act of self defense, I’m given two choices by the magic cops: attend some stuck-up magic school, or go to magic jail. Well, shit. There go my plans for the next year. Apparently, I have Untamed Magic, whatever the hell that means. And I’ve got a year to get it under control at this magic academy that’s … under control at this magic academy that’s basically a finishing school for the elite. Everyone here is somebody important. And rich. Except for me.
Which paints quite the target on my back. Being the token poor kid is bad enough. Throw in that I somehow form a mating bond with four of the school’s most eligible bachelors. Oh yeah, and add in the fact that someone is trying to kill me. FML.

**********Contains Spoilers**********
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I thought it was a great start to the series and introduction to Alexis Carter. Raven had been shipped off to an Elite Academy, it was either that or get sent to magical jail for using her powers that she didn’t know she even had in self defence. She’s really not happy about being their as she’s 29 years old and has been on her on for years. I really don’t like the teachers well apart from Mr Green the Headmaster as they all expect Raven to know everything when she’s only had magic for one day. The gym teacher is the worst. She meets all different magical beings that she’s only heard of from books and movies. She meets Luka a Incubus, Ben a Wolf Shifter and the Academy’s Chosen Alpha and Fire Mage Twins Matt and Zach. All the guys feel an instant attraction to her but she spends more time getting to know Luca and Ben during book one. Raven receives a message from the outside which Mr Green read and it’s a d*ath threat so Mr Green tells her that he’s going to do everything to protect her but the school is magically warded so only teachers, students or Officials are able to get inside but she needs to make sure she masters her magic as when she used her magic in the human world she sent out a beacon so anyone could track her if they were monitoring her magical signature. I’m really looking forward to seeing how her connection/bonds with each guy grows as they help in their own way to get her to master her powers. I’d recommend this book, series and author to everyone.
Not a bad intro, though I am confused about why everyone thinks Raven is trouble. Wouldn’t the staff be warned about her just using magic for the first time and she had no idea she was a mage?
Though out her four guys, I’m team Ben all the way.
I will continue on with the series and see if it turns good or if it will turn to a dud.
Okay I am a pretty easy going reader I like just about anything. This series has potential but It feels like the whole story like is being missed in a way. I will keep reading just to see maybe it is just a slow start but I have my doubts. The bulb was so good and I was really excited to read this but we shall see if it gets better in further into the series.
Magic power she didn’t know she had. Raven never knew she had magic until she had to defend herself against two men and killed them with fire. Now a benefactor she doesn’t know has forced her to go to an academy for magic. Now at twenty years old she is back in school but a school so different from when she was in High School. She meets incubi, shifters, vampires, and fairies. And she has met four very different men who she is attracted to who assist her. But then she is attacked and almost dies, from a magic thief who tells her she killed Raven’s parents. Now Raven has to learn to control her unstable magic or she will be a danger to everyone.
Wow… just wow!!! This book was panty melting hot!!! The MC’s guys are simply drool worthy!
Our MC is in big sh** for defending herself against guys out to kill her. She didn’t even know magic existed and now she’s thrown head first into it with a side dish of four insanely hot guys.
I can’t wait to read book two. One-click this awesome book and get started on a finished series.
This story is well written with unexpected twists. I love the characters and the potential for lasting connections. Raven just found out she has magic by incinerating a couple of guys that attempted to kill her. She finds herself at an exclusive academy to learn how to control her magic. If she can’t it’s either magical jail or death. First guy she meets is Luca, an incubus. His nature draws her to him, but surprise…he can’t stop thinking about her. Next is Ben, alpha shifter and dorm leader. Raven is Ben’s mate and she is attracted to him also. Last but not least are Matt and Zack, fire mages. The twins try to help her with her magic and they ended up getting more than they expected. So much to learn in a short period of time. We know she is very strong and it was mentioned that her parents were very powerful before they were killed. I’m gonna need to read the next two books. I requested an advanced reader copy from Booksprout and am under no obligation to leave this review.

Academy of Elites is an exciting read. I felt for Raven because she was being kept in the dark about a lot of things like what she is. I loved her and her males cant wait to read the next book
Untamed Magic by Alexis Calder is the first book in the Academy of the Elite series. In this book, Raven Winters finds out she has magic when she accidentally uses it to save her own life. This causes her to end up being sent to the Academy of the Elite to learn how to control her untamed magic. Once at the academy Raven learns about a whole world of supernatural creatures she never knew existed. This book held me enthralled from the very first chapter. The story moves at such a fast pace that I couldn’t put it down until I finished it. I really loved this academy book and would definitely recommend that you read it. Untamed Magic: Academy of the Elite is a 5+ star exciting tale of magic and romance.
*WARNING* contains sexual situations
Raven thought she was a normal 21 year old woman until she killed a couple of men by setting them on fire. Now Raven goes to a school for magic elites.
This is a lot like other academy books. This first one is more of a “meet the characters”, leave the reader with multiple questions, and give a nice build up to what can be expected in the next book. I think this is a great start.

What a thrilling start to a new series! We meet Raven just as she is sent to the Academy through no choice of her own after an unexpected incident. She has no clue that magic exists let alone anything else and let alone have any of her own. Thrown into the deep end without a raft she must figure things out quick if she wants to survive. Full of magic, twists, and turns that will keep you hooked until the very end. I really liked it so I give it 4/5 stars.
This book is a great start to the series. The storyline is well written and interesting. I loved the characters. I’m really looking forward to the next book. I highly recommend reading.

This is the first book I have read from this Author and I loved it. WE have action, suspense, and confusion for Raven. She summoned Fire to protect her self now she is being threaten by magic jail. She does not know what to do with this magic. Why is she having a pull to four different guys? Why do they keep threatening her at the school? What are these people and teachers? Who wants her dead? Can she make it or will they kill her one day?
Reviewed thru Booksprout
I was not sure how to feel about this book when I started reading it, but it only got better and better after every turn of a page.
The story is definitely full of mysteries that surround Raven. There seems to be many layers to this girl and she is not even aware of it all. Her past is a blank page, which includes her family. There is nothing to help connect her with a past. She does not even have anyone to ask how and why she was able to incinerate two people that tried to do her harm. As her powers unfold, so does some truth. It seems losing her family was no accident at all.
The twists in this story were insane but very well thought out. The characters have so much potential. The story is interesting and good enough to my curiosity piqued and needing the next book to know more.

After using magic in self-defense to kill her attackers Raven is whisked away into a world of magic and creatures that go bump in the night. She has 2 options: Go to an expensive college for magical beings or Go to supernatural prison. This book mainly focuses on her trying to adjust to this new world she’s found herself in, figuring out the 4 drool-worthy guys who are into her, and her newfound powers. Just when she’s getting a handle on everything a new twist to her adventure pops up leading to a huge discovery that will define her life. I can’t wait to see what the author has in store for the rest of the series, finding out what exactly Raven is and what makes her special.

IF YOU WANT A GOOD ACADEMY BOOK TO READ WITH GREAT CHARACTERS, YOU NEED TO READ THIS!!
What the heck Alexis Calder? This book was amazing. I am so happy that I came across this book to read. This book just jumps right into the thick of things and does not let up. You never know what to expect. I love Raven, she is very strong willed and independent. She does a good job maintaining the tough girl status but when alone to her own thoughts she breaks. She has to attend an Elite school because of something that she does by accident. While she is there, she meets. Luka, Ben, Matt and Zack who are definitely hot and feel something towards her. So that makes things pretty interesting to say the least. Raven only found out about this world and is trying to figure out what is going on with her. The only thing she knows is that her magic is untamed and she needs to learn how to wield it. Will she get the answers she needs? Will anything happen with the guys? We do get some answers but not all. Be prepared for the ending. That shocked me. Like seriously when is book two due to release cause I need answers. AHH you are KILLING ME HERE ALEXIS!!
Needless to say this story is well written with great characters. You will definitely want to add this to your Academy reads list.
This is a Reverse Harem Romance with a Magical Academy!! What more could you ask for?
Raven doesn’t realize she has magic until one day she uses it to defend herself from being murdered. Because she killed these murderers with her magic, she is sent to this Magical School and told she either stays there or goes to Magical Prison. She is then told that she is a Mage.
While Raven attends class and tries to learn about her magic and how to control it, she has a Incubus, a wolf shifter and twin mages all coming on to her (and feeling sure she’s their mate).
There’s quite a bit excitement for the beginning of the series. Also I like how it’s not jumping into the relationships, even though she feels drawn to them and vice versa.
I liked the beginning and I look forward to reading the book two in the series!!
