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._______________________________________________________________Here's what readers are saying about Magic Trials:"This book starts out at 100 mph and never slows down." ★★★★★"The steamy romance is like the icing on the cake. I enjoy it, but the story stands on its own without it; amazing characters, beautiful new worlds, daring adventure, and just enough giggles." ★★★★★"Magic Trials hit most of my soft spots: strong heroine, boarding school, possessive alpha males not too happy about sharing, and while the jerk of the group takes the bullying path, it's not her against everyone and most definitely not her against all of her love interests." ★★★★★"This is a super fun, exciting beginning to a series I'm really looking forward to diving into. I can't wait to see what danger Marigold will face, the way she will put the men in their place, and the friends she will make along the way."★★★★★
