Synopsis

Let the Trials begin...

The time has finally arrived! The Trials are in full swing and celebratory parties fill The Isle as Candidates go head-to-head to prove themselves worthy of the coveted Ranger title. Drinks, dances, and masquerade balls set the stage for a glamorous series of events until suddenly, it all changes.

The most dangerous criminal on the island escapes from prison. Tragedy strikes. The Isle is thrown into chaos due to old, forbidden black magic, and only one person can help.

As the island’s Mixologist, Lily is expected to step in and save the day. When she’s forced to keep secrets from X while deciphering decades old clues, however, she’s pushed to the edges of her sanity.

With the help of her family, The Core, and her new boyfriend, X, Lily must stop The Puppeteer from taking over the island before it’s too late.

Because if she doesn’t succeed, nobody will.

Welcome back, Islanders.

Review

Jinx and Tonic is the 3rd book in this series and each book just keeps getting better and better! It makes me even more excited for the books that are to follow.

In this book we learn a lot more about both X and Lily. We learn about some of Lily’s family history and while there are questions that are answered there are more that come up. I love that about this book, although the books don’t end in huge cliff hangers, each book leaves you with questions that you can’t wait to find the answers to in the next book.

The Island is crazy right now with the trials and ceremonies and the ball. Lily and X are finally together but are finding that having a relationship when you are two of the most important people on the island can make it hard. Each of them has their own careers and secrets that could take their toll on their relationship but they don’t let it.

“Somehow, the two of us had managed to find a lighthouse in all these dark and stormy seas, the light keeping us on a path of good, a path of love and hope and all things bright.”

~ Lily

I love the blossoming love between X and Lily. I love that we get to see a different side of X. He is protective, loving, and don’t forget panty melting hot (not that that is new). When he says things like this, you just swoon!

“Some days…you’re the only thing in this world of which I’m sure.”

~ X
