Nothing matters now but finding her missing guardian, Slade. She knows he’s alive, but the clock is ticking, leaving Kat and her guardians in a race against time.

Enlightened by Magic is a slow burn reverse harem paranormal romance. There are no love triangles in this book. She gets to choose them all.

Enlightened by Magic by Kelli McCracken is an amazing story that I have read and loved. This is book number two in this amazing series that I have fallen in love with since book number one. I highly recommend this story to everyone who loves reading about magic, reapers, fantasy, romantic suspense and paranormal romances in their stories as much as I love reading them.

Absolutely loved this – The book starts with Slade being tortured and the storey continues with Katerina, Roark, Jax, or Quinn trying to find and save him before he dies. There are twists and turns galore, some that you can see coming and others that catch you by surprise leaving you thinking WTF. Yes, it is a Reverse Harem, but it is also a very good Urban Fantasy story line with fabulous characters that draws you in and completely envelopes you in the storey, so much so that you really can’t put the book down. I can highly recommend this book and the previous book in the series for wonderful reads.
If you thought the first book was amazing, just wait until you dive into the pages of this second installment of the series. Enlightened by Magic definitely takes this series to the next level of suspense, excitement, danger, and intrigue. This book picks up where the first left off with Kat and the guys searching for Slade and plotting to get him back. Katarina’s skills and powers are growing and she is starting to embrace who she is becoming. Acceptance and understanding play a big part in her ability to do what needs to be done and face what is ahead. With the guys at her side, what could possibly go wrong? The suspense and action hold a strong, steady presence in the story and there is a shocking twist that will make you say “wow!” I was definitely not expecting it and I look forward to seeing how that plotline plays out in the next book.
This book, like the first, is written from multiple POV’s and really gives an insight into each character’s thoughts, feelings, and reasons behind their actions. I especially liked Slade’s POV at the beginning of the read; he and Jax are my two faves out of the group. I look forward to seeing Kat’s bond with them and the others solidify more in the next installment. This is a reverse harem read so we get to see her relationships develop with each of the guys separately on a more intimate level and collectively to strengthen their bond.
Once you get wrapped up in the pages of this book there is plenty of excitement to hold your attention until the end. I was captured from the first page and could not put it down. I was so absorbed in the characters and storyline I just had to see what was going to happen next. There is a lot of fun to be had amidst the pages of this great read!
Well this story certainly was a doozy. It jammed packed with action, drama, suspense and mystery. It has twists and turns throughout it. The characters are amazing and their personalities are felt throughout the story. It is extremely well written and it does an amazing job explaining things throughout it. This one definitely keeps you on the edge of your seat. The ending was such a shocker and yes, it also ends in a cliffhanger. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. I just was thrilled to enter this world and its amazing characters. This book was just so good and I just lost myself in the story. I will most definitely be reading more books by this wonderful author.
Absolutely amazing book by 2 amazing authors. A book I had to finish in one sitting.
As a rule I am not a big fan of shifter novels but this book pulled me right in as with other books by Kelli. I started reading and just couldn’t put it down. This is the second book in the series and was a great continuatin of Abducted.
This book dives into more detail and introduces us to more characters and even Dragon shifters. We learn in this book who killed Kat, we meet the last Guardian and learn that who we thought were villains in the first book really aren’t. We also see Kat come into more of her power and how much she actually has.
This book was spectacular as well and I cannot wait to read the next one (hopefully there is one)! One of the things about Kelli’s work is that she likes to leave us with cliffhangers which leave us wanting more. Overall, this is an awesome read and don’t pass it by if it is not necessarily what you normally would read.
I was offered an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Enlightened by Magic by Kellie McCracken and Elena Gray is the second stand alone book in the Guardians of Magic series. In this book, Kat and her guardians Rourke, Jax, and Quinn must find and rescue the missing guardian Slade and their other friends. This book is a wonderful reverse harem romance that is full of twists and turns with a really surprise ending that I loved. I was fascinated from the first page until the very end. Enlightened by Magic is a complex and fascinating tale.

This is a wonderful book. I love Kat and her men. The adventure is great. The characters are compelling, and the storyline pulls you in. Loved it!!
Enlightened by Magic: A Gargoyle Shifter Paranormal Romance is the second book in the Guardians of Magic series. This action-packed, fast-paced story is well written and ends on a cliffhanger. Katarina has been gifted with more power which could help her in their attempt to rescue Slade. There is danger, intrigue, suspense in this installment.
I cannot wait for the next book in this series.
I read and reviewed a copy of this book with no obligation.
This was a great book. I was drawn in from the beginning and couldn’t put it down. The story and characters are well written and developed. Looking forward to the next book. I recommend reading.

Enlightened By Magic is the second book in this wonderful series immediately continuing on from Abducted By Magic. I definitely recommend you read these books in order. Kat now has magical powers, has become reaper and has four sexy guardians. However one is missing and in danger and they have to find him fast.
This book, and series, has hooked me from the very start. The main characters are brilliant, well rounded and flawed. The secondary characters are integral to the story and some are surprising to say the least. The bonds between Kat and her individual guardians are gentle, sweet and intense. The bond between them all will be irreparably damaged if they cannot find Slade in time.
They also have a murder to solve.
I cannot recommend this book highly enough and eagerly await the next one.

This book was better than the first one. There was more detail in the story and the characters were developing more. I really liked it though. This is a good series. I like the witch but i dont like her captor or the guards. They treat her badly. Her only crime is being special. I look forward to see what happens in the next book.

Absolutely amazing!!! I was anxiously waiting for this second installment of “Guardians of Magic” and all I can say is WOW!!! Katarina has a lot on her plate. She has to learn to control her powers not only as a witch but as a reaper as well, while trying to find a way to save Slade and fix her relationship with her guardians/mates, who still try to deny their connection.
An action-packed magical adventure, full of suspense, magic, danger, and scorching hot scenes between Katarina and her mates. Will they save Slade? And will Katarina have the same connection with him as with his brothers? Read on and find out. I’m certainly anxious for the next installment!!!

Highly entertaining, action packed, sexy and engaging adventure filled with magic, mystery and danger…. was a edge of your seat heart racing read from beginning to end and I am so looking forward to what comes next. An emotionally thrilling read!
Enlightened By Magic is book two of the Guardians of Magic series and picks up where book one left off and if you read book one then you were probably like me and excited for book two. In this book the characters are developing and I like that we get multiple characters POV. This action packed, suspenseful story has some unexpected twists that surprised me. I am looking forward to the next book in this series to find out what happens next for all of the characters.
OMG, we have mystery, suspense, threats, confusion and heartache. Granted I did cry in a spot. Katerina is trying to find Slade, on of her guardians. Now she is a witch and a reaper. Her uncle has made threats to her guardians and her Grandma is not much help. Now there is a tear in the veil can she help close it? Can she save Slade with time running out for him? Can they find who is doing this? Can her Uncle help? Will her guardians except that they are fated to her? Can she help Samara and her mates? So much going on can’t wait for the next book.

This book was a great sequel and kept you interested throughout the story. I love Rh that give you POVs for all the characters. Personally I feel like I can connect with the characters much better that way and understand their actions better. The mythology of the world was only briefly touched on and not much interaction with the other witches or gargoyles that aren’t part of the MCs’ inner circle. I felt like the Katarina’s backstory could be flushed out more, her parents aren’t even mentioned anywhere.. what happened to them, who are they? Overall it was a great book with a fantastic ending dialogue line.
