What's worse than being hunted by a devil?Discovering you've been mated to one.Since moving to Mystic Harbor, Maine, I've made it my life's mission to avoid Reese Blackburn at all costs. Sure, he has cheekbones that could cut glass, not to mention bedroom eyes that could melt any girl into a puddle on the floor. Too bad that doesn't change the fact he's completely stab-worthy. When a fun night out on the town turns deadly, I quickly discover the quaint little hamlet of Mystic Harbor houses more than sandy beaches and adorable B&B's. Beneath the New England charm rests a deadly world where shifters, demons, vampires, and angelic hunters all vie for power.A world where magic is the greatest weapon.Magic that people are willing to kill for.Magic that I now possess.After that one fateful night, I can feel the changes beginning to take hold of me. Worse yet, I have no idea what I'm even turning into! All I know is someone wants me dead, and someone even worse wants me alive. Hell's mystifying Crown Prince of Lust has just marked me to be his Mate, and this handsome devil won't stop until he claims what is his. My only real ally rests in the one person I can't stand: the insufferably gorgeous Reese Blackburn.I was just your average seventeen-year-old girl. Now, my very soul is at stake. Can my unlikely partnership challenge fate itself before it's too late, or will I be forever damned as a Princess of Hell?Dark. Romantic. Dangerous. And Sexy As Hell. Perfect for fans of The Vampire Diaries, Teen Wolf, and all things Supernatural. If you love paranormal romances, urban fantasy, fated mates, magic, vampires, shifters, demons, teen fantasy, mythology, tragic romances, Gothic themes, supernatural creatures, young adult dark fantasy, and some devilish bad boys, then the world of THE MARKED MAGE CHRONICLES awaits you!… (mere)

This is the first book in a series, The Marked Mage Chronicles, that focuses on a girl living in a quaint little town in Maine. Kat Montgomery believed she had a normal life filled with friends and a boyfriend, but everything changed one night. The car crash that claimed the life of her boyfriend should have claimed hers as well, but someone seemed to have changed her fate.

Now Kat is starting to see things in her quaint little town. The place is a hotbed of creatures like vampires, demons, and hellhounds all after her because the Crown Prince of Lust has marked her as his mate. As Kat struggles through this, she finds Reese may hold the answer to the runes on her arms.

When it comes to reviewing the first book in the series, I try to give it the benefit of the doubt. The first book is a precursor to what we will see in the next three books. It offers a glimpse into the storyline and world-building. There will be much more to come.

The book does not do a lot of information drop. Most of it is vague and the lore seems to be lacking, if best. I am going to surmise that answers to some of my questions should start to have answers as I dive further into the series, at least that is what I am hoping.

The characters are interesting and have potential, but at this point in the story, they feel like they are still being developed. The pacing is slow and it takes a little while to get into the story, but once it gets going it becomes more engaging.

Final Thought:

Overall, the first book sets up the foundation for the series and introduces us to the characters and world. It has its flaws but it leaves the reader curious and interested in what will happen next. I will continue reading the series and hope to see improvement in the next book. ( )

First off, I did enjoy the story. But the author needed a good editor. There are word choices that, if deliberate are odd, but my suspicion is that the author put a placeholder, or sounds like, word in there and never had anyone correct it. The story runs long with yet-another crisis and battle coming up. She writes them well and I kept turning the page, but again. She needed a good editor.

I do recommend the story but I'm now cautious about going to the next one. ( )
