These four – vampire Caleb, werewolf Seth, siren Max, and shape-shifter Darius – are determined to run the twins out of school. One problem: they don’t actually want to be queens. But obviously, nobody believes them, least of all the Celestial Heirs: four young men who have been groomed for power ever since the collapse of the Fae monarchy. This gets 3.5 stars, rounded up for very good writing with only one major typo (‘ascent’ where they mean ‘assent.’)ĭarcy and Tory Vega are 18-year-old twins who get informed by the hot professor Orion that they’re really the heirs to the Fae throne, and they need to graduate from Zodiac Academy before they can take it.

But we’ve been looking after each other for a long time and fighting back is in our blood. So if the dragon shifters want some target practice, the werewolves want someone to hunt or the vampires fancy a snack then we have to be ready. We can’t expect any help from the faculty when it comes to defending ourselves. We never knew we had a birthright to live up to but now that we do, we intend to claim our throne. They’ve only got until the lunar eclipse to force us out and they’ll stop at nothing to succeed. Our fates are intertwined, but they want us gone. It doesn’t help that they’re the most dangerous beasts in the Academy. And it hasn’t made us any friends so far.Īs the rarest Elementals ever known, we’re already a threat to the four celestial heirs the popular, vindictive bullies who happen to be some of the hottest guys we’ve ever seen. No one has ever harnessed all four of them, until we arrived.

Which means we’re totally unprepared for the ruthless world of Fae. As twins born in the month of Gemini, we’re a rare breed even in this academy of supernatural a-holes.Ĭhangelings were outlawed hundreds of years ago but I guess our birth parents didn’t get the memo. If you’re one of the Fae, elemental magic is in your blood. You have been selected to attend Zodiac Academy, where your star sign defines your destiny.
