Yield or die…Back in San Francisco, Mika is working on bringing the Marshall greenhouse back to its full glory despite her sister constantly breathing down her neck about the Matriarch ritual. Claire tries to force Mika’s hand, but she refuses to give her sister the power to control her, or Audrey’s life. She just can’t take the risk.Mika challenges Claire to the title of Matriarch to her … Matriarch to her sister’s fury. There hasn’t been a witch challenge in centuries, and Mika isn’t sure she is stronger than her sister but it has to be worth the risk. The only problem is…if one does not yield, both will die.

I loved this book, it was action packed and an emotional rollercoaster, I was on the edge of my seat and hooked from the first page. I love that Mika’s finally out of her shell, thanks to her boys, but will she be able to do what’s needed when she’s facing Clare across the Circle? Another amazing instalement with fantastic narration, I can’t wait for the next book.
Oh goodness this story gave so many answers but left so many questions. It is magnificently written and the characters are stunningly beautifully. Their personalities are felt throughout the story and it is so well written that you feel as if you are part of the story. The ending of this book in the series is superb and very unexpected. It is a story that is a must read and I cannot wait to read the next book in the series.
5 stars for Wicked Blood by Emma Dean. This is book five in the University of Morgana:Academy of Enchantments and Witchcraft series. Wow this series is killing me. It keeps getting better and better . Mika faces a lot in this book but the hardest part will be when she challenges her sister. In the challenge you must either yield or die, so what will happen. “Death is always gentle, Mika. It’s merciful and kind.” With everything going on we do finally start to get answers , but at the same time we get more questions. I think this book might be my favorite so far out of the series. It was extremely intense. Mika and her men’s relationships are becoming stronger. We do get a decision from Corbin about what he wants with Mika. FINALLY lol. While some may not like how Mika acts in respect to her relationship with her men , remember she has pretty much been betrayed by every man in her life. Be ready for a salacious cliffhanger. I can not wait to see what happens next.
This fifth book brings some answers but so many more questions. Mika may be currently out of school but that won’t stop the training and all the books. Now she needs to take care of her own clan. Can she allow her older sister to become the matriarch? It would be allowing a woman who looks down on all but the elite to have control. But can she take it or even want it? The story will explain more about The Morrigan and also see the relationship she has with her men change. Definitely has some hotness and plenty of magic.
Why the bloody cliff hanger essh author why!!!!
*I received a free copy of this book which I voluntarily chose to write an honest review for.
Dean has created yet another fantastic addition to this amazing series!!! Mika is trying to adjust to all of the changes going on in her life but she is struggling. To add to that she decides that she has to challenge Claire for the role of Matriarch in order to keep those she loves safe as well as herself. This leads to all kinds of research and training to get her prepared. This leads to an ending that I never would have seen coming it is so explosive. I cannot wait for the next installment. A total must read for fans of paranormal reverse harem. I totally loved it so I give it 5/5 stars.
Wow. This book was nothing like the ones before it. We got to see Lucien’s pack and have all of the characters interacting with them. Mika got to experience what a real family is like. Things are escalating in this book, but the main plot arc is sidelined to resolve the issue with Mika’s sister Claire. I love that Corbin is much more vocal in this book than the previous one and all the interactions with Lucifer in the book. We get some answers about the history of blood witches which was compelling and has you wanting more answers.
I received a free copy of this book via the author’s ARC team and am voluntarily leaving a review.
I read this book on KU and will definitely be purchasing it. This book was FIRE!!! It was so good that I feel like I literally cannot wait for the next book. Reality is that I have to, but mentally I am not prepared to wait. I need to know how this ends. This was so good. The best book in the series yet. We learn so much more about Blood Witches, and the Foxes little places in pockets between worlds, about the ancient art and practice of witch duels. We learn exactly how the current life of witches came to be and how it changed so drastically. Like, I wish I could enunciate this better but I am so excited and words fail me on how phenomenal this book is. 20/10 recommend this book. Absolutely the best book in the series.
Wow just WOW!!!
you will never see the ending coming…crazy.
But let me not skip all the good stuff. Mika is home for the break with her guys and Audrey. Walking on pins and needles around her sister while trying to find out more about who she is. This book is full of the characters we love from all of Emma’s books. There are road trips, declarations, secrets, family, and a challenge that hasn’t happened in centuries. Mika hopes to find out all that she can about what it means to be a blood witch and what happened to the Morganna.
Such a great book, they just keep getting better and better. Can’t wait for Mika, her guys and her family to come back in the next book
