One word easily summed up my entire life: ordinary.
I lived with my grandmother in a rural town in Montana. As I worked beside her in our small store, she taught me everything I needed to know.
Except how to find her when she disappeared into thin air.
Yesterday, going off to college was my greatest adventure. But the truth about my childhood was hidden from me my entire life, cloaked by a … entire life, cloaked by a powerful spell.
I thought all the tales she told me were just bedtime stories…children’s fantasies.
Until I stumbled into the Covis Realm.
Until I learned my mother was killed because she was a mage.
Until I was told my father died defending her.
Until I realized I’m the rightful heir to the throne.
Mages were hunted and killed because of their powers. They said a mage could never be the queen.
My response? Watch me.

I’m hooked! This isn’t my normal genre, but AD Justice has hooked me in this unputdownable story. Grab yours today!
Sara’s story sucked me in and I didn’t put it down until the last page. This book has it all magic, mystery, intrigue, suspense, drama, angst, romance and a world filled with mages, witches, warlocks and so many more intriguing characters. I can’t wait to read the next book in this magical series.
Cloaked was a surprise for me. When I saw that the author was releasing a new book, I immediately wanted to read it as I love her writing. I was not aware that this was going to be a paranormal book as this is not her usual genre. I am not a big fan of paranormal but have found some by favorite authors that I’ve read because of the author and this ended up being one. I was pleasantly happy with the book. Right from the start it drew me in and has many events that I didn’t see coming. I wasn’t expecting how much I enjoyed this magical world and look forward to more from this author.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
There is zero way that there is anything ordinary about this new book from AD Justice. My mind is legit blown away with this story that I am still at a loss for words at how epic it is. The concept alone is absolutely brilliant. The whole story keeps you on your toes as you go through everything that is thrown at Sara. The ups and downs and the all arounds. I was just at a loss for words when I closed the book. Plus a cursed Justice JUST a little…… but she deserved it. THAT ENDING!! What just happened?!??!!
Overall, this book is sheer brilliance. It is witty and one of a kind. The passion is intense in it. The concept behind the Covis realm is awe inspiring. The attention to detail that Justice created for this story has me begging for more. I was so caught up in the world that she has created with this series. I am dying for more. I need more… GIMMIE!!!! Yes I am demanding it. It needs to be read. If you want a fantasy tale, look no further than the first installment of this series because it will blow you away!!!
I don’t know where to begin. This story sucked me in. I couldn’t put it down. It’s so good!
Sara is a normal teenager. Hanging out with friends the night her Nana disappears and she literally falls into another world. A world full of magic, white and dark. As she learns more about herself, she finds it harder and harder to hide her true identity. Or who should she trust?
This paranormal romance will leave you gutted. It’s not a standalone and has a major cliffhanger.
The writing is fantastic and the story flows seamlessly. Told in Sara’s POV.
I highly recommend Cloaked to fans of paranormal romance. It’s worth the book hangover.
What an adventure! A.D Justice has written an all consuming story. One you won’t put down. And one you’re going to want more of. And I can’t wait for the next book. Sara and Sabion are two characters you can’t help but fall for. Justice brings soulmate romance with adventure, magic and lots of twists and turns.
Sara has to learn all kinds of different ways. She’s a special woman who learns just how great her powers are. But someone doesn’t want her to have a happily ever after. And Sara will get here one way or another.
I can’t wait to get the next installment. This is a on the edge of your seat read. And I need lots of questions answered.
Highly recommended. Very, very entertaining.
*I was given a free advanced copy of this book by the author in exchange for my honest and voluntary review.*
This book will definitely give you all the feels. Sara & Saban are absolutely perfect for each other. There connection is instant and our true soul mates but someone wants too end their HEA. Sara has been thrown into a works she knew nothing about and now that Sara knows everything the one ting she wants now is revenge. Truly an exciting, heart racing read that will give you all the feels and also have you hooked. I need the next book ASAP.
I haven’t read much of this authors work but have enjoyed it each time. When the chance came to read a pnr I figured why not. Well I was thrilled to find myself wrapped up in the world and waiting to find out when the other shoe would drop. So many secrets and layers to peel through to get answers. Alone in a world she has no knowledge of this author takes her through many twist to get her bearings. Figuring out who to trust and how things work in this world keep her spinning and us enthralled. This is a read filled with action and turmoil, emotions and yup sexy times. It is a series so this is not a standalone read. The world is well developed and the thrills keep you hungering for more. There are still plenty of questions to be answered and as the story unfolds so do more questions. Can’t awit to see what happens in the next book in the series.
Talk about WINNER! This book rocks! One-click it! You won’t regret it.
During these trying times, it’s been hard to read, so I’ve dove into a genre I usually don’t read. Turns out it was just what I needed!
Was delighted to get into this one from the ground up as they say. This author I have read many times before but this one was a bit different than previous which made it even more of a gem that I enjoyed. You will find out why this title which much behind it. Thing is also about tales and stories is that most have a base line truth to them. Oh what you will enter into is a world that helps you escape the now if only for a minute depending on how fast you read. Sara is one character that will leap off the page and take you with her on everything she discoveries which is quite the know for sure. She is more than she ever knew. There will be two other characters that on occasion will take up your attention but you have to read this to find out just who and how much. Thank goodness this is only book one with more on the horizon.
I was not prepared for this story. I was sucked in from page one til the end. This story had romance, mystery, intrigue and magic. I am a fan of PNR stories and this series. Will definitely be in my top ten.
What do you do when you learn almost everything you have ever known is a lie and you are really royalty from another realm? Sara is such a strong character. Her even temperament is a joy to read. Saban is her mate but together, their life will not be easy as there are people who mean Sara harm. I enjoyed reading about the different magical creatures in the realm. I was not expecting that ending.
Cloaked is paranormal story that makes the paranormal world seem like it’s just the every day norm. It doesn’t take long to find yourself mesmerized and in love with Sara. Sara was just an ordinary girl living in a sleepy Montana town u til she finds herself falling through a portal into The Clovis Realm. In this realm she learns she’s anything but ordinary.
A.D. Justice always writes in a way that completely immerses you into the story, and Cloaked is no different. Sara was a great main character and I felt that I was right there watching her grow and navigate a whole new world. I loved that this book was anything but ordinary and expected. There were twists I could never in a million years have seen coming, which made it almost impossible to put this one down!
Cloaked is the first in an exciting new YA fantasy. Sara is a smart young woman who was feeling stifled in her small town life. But she isn’t who or what she has known herself to be. When she falls through a portal her life and destiny change drastically. I was enthralled. I couldn’t put this book down. I can’t wait to see what happens next.
GAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH! Yes, I screamed. No, I can’t tell you why. Yes, I am sure. No, I won’t change my mind. GAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH! I hope that got it out of my system- no guarantees.
What a world! What a wonderful magical world! A.D. Justice has always kept me on my toes. Her mind is a tornado of plot and characters but I never imagined she had this inside her!
Cloaked is an incredible beginning to a world that hopefully won’t end. With so many opportunities to meet new “people” I would probably cry if she ever stopped writing in this realm.
The incredible descriptions lead the reader into a magical place. I could vividly see and experience the world she has created. I loved the different feel and the similarities making it a cohesive experience for all sorts of readers. Those with wild and insightful imaginations are going to soar in this technicolor dream a la Wizard Of Oz. Even those that can’t daydream about a place they have never been will be able to thrive in the Covis Realm with the full bodied depictions. I am so jealous of everyone picking this book up for the first time. I want the wide eyed joy and clean slate to start over! I want to go back to before A.D. Justice left me gasping for air, trying to turn a page only to realize its over. I have already turned the final page. I can’t go back to that innocent awe. I can only wait for answers with love and with fierce determination. I will find answers.
This is a new author for me, but the blurb on this new series sound intriguing if a little on the YA side (which is not my thing), so thought I would give it a try and see how we got on.
The story has a slow start that was also a bit confusing until you got a few chapters in and the story started to sink in, but I’m glad I kept at it as the world turned out to be a very interesting one, full of a variety of magical creatures and a story line packed full of romance, mystery, intrigue, betrayal, friendship and of course magic!
Sara lives a normal small town life, raised by her Grandma, worrying about what to do with her life after high school, until her Grandma disappears and she falls into a new and mysterious world, that is quite different from the one that she is used to, where she appears to have magical abilities. Her first meeting with Saban after she flees the elves off their land, and they have this instant connection, she has unwittingly found her soul mate already!
Sara is a strong and independent character in this, thrust into a world she knows nothing about with new powers, she just gets on with it, taking it all in her stride. Saban on the other hand was always a bit dodgy for me, I didn’t trust him from the start, but did start to thaw a little about him, I should have trusted my initial gut reaction!!
I loved the world created here, so many magical creatures and different types, with very vivid descriptions. The elves and the mer-people were very intriguing and can’t wait to see how they are involved more in this story line. There are lots of unanswered questions here just waiting for more books in this series, which I am definitely looking forward to. A good start to a new series.
Cloaked is book 1 in a new series Easthaven Crest by author A.D. Justice. It’s this magical, unique and exciting YA fantasy read.
You have Sara, who is the heroine in the story who is a HS senior who has her life turned upside down. What she thought was her normal life ends up not and she’s suddenly dealing with her Nana disappearing, then she herself ends up transported to a different world where there’s fairies, Mages, warlocks, elves, witches and wolves. This story has everything that you want in a fantasy YA- angst, drama, adventure, suspense, power, romance, fantasy, magic , intrigue and mystery. I enjoyed reading about Sara and her mate in this magical world who is Saban . I can’t wait for book 2.
My Rating: 4.5 stars ********
Cloaked is a beautiful written story by A.D Justice . She takes the reader on an adventure into many fantasy realms of the unknow. Cloaked is a story about a young girl living in the shadows of her life. Until she loses her grandmother and she falls into a very different world from ours. She learns to live the life that was meant to be hers. Life has a way of changing good or very bad before your eyes. Sara is learning her powers under the cloak of magic finding herself. Truly a magical fantasy to read. Many elves, dragons, witches, mermaids and mages. Opening your eyes to a whole new world. Hold on because the story will leave you wanting and needing more with everyone involved.
“I was completely immersed in the story that when the ending crept on me, I was disappointed, not because I didn’t like where it ended, but because it ended. I wanted to keep reading.”
A.D. Justice has been one of my favorite authors for years. While I haven’t always been a paranormal reader, I decided to give her new PRN book a try. OMG I loved it. The world building is unique and well-detailed, with so many paranormal beings and potential story lines for future books. I couldn’t put this book down. Cloaked hits all the emotions: love, hate, guilt, friendship, and loyalty. It also has all the elements a great story needs: suspense, intrigue, a thirst for power, humor, danger, an epic love story.
Sara’s life is normal until it isn’t. A high school senior with a desire to leave her small-town life, except she owes her grandmother everything. Since her parents were killed, Nana has been her only constant. When she comes home and finds her grandmother missing her world is turned upside down, literally and figuratively.
Unexpectedly she falls into another world, one where she is royalty and shielded from those who would hurt her in their lust for power. Not only does Sara find danger right from the start, she finds the man who is her soul mate. Astounded by the magical beings and world around her, Sara desperately tries to make her new reality her own, but danger lurks everywhere. The story that follows leads the reader on a journey of Sara coming into her own and fighting to become the woman she is meant to be. Unlikely people become allies and those she feels she can trust betray her. Just when things look to be going in a positive direction, Ms. Justice tosses a series of huge roadblocks into the lives of Sara and Saban. At the end of the book my heart was totally in shreds and I’ll be waiting for the author to repair that damage.
I am totally invested in this world and cannot wait to see where Ms. Justice takes the reader on her next journey. The story is tight, the characters well-developed, the love story sweet and sensual, and the world imaginative and exciting. Leaving a reader wanting more is always a good thing at the end of a book and Ms. Justice has done it well.
