My Rating: ★★★★★

Broke, almost homeless, and recently fired. Those are my official reasons for answering a wanted ad for a skeevy-looking bartender gig.

It went downhill the moment they asked me to do a trial shift instead of an interview—to see if I’d mesh with their “special” clientele. I think that part went great. Their customers were complete dickheads, and I was an asshole right back. That’s the definition of fitting in, right?

I expected to get thrown out on my ass. Instead, they…offered me the job?

It turns out this place isn’t a bar. It’s aguild. And the three cocky guys I drenched with a margarita during my trial? Yeah, they were mages. Either I’m exactly the kind of takes-no-shit bartender this guild needs, or there’s a good reason no one else wants to work here.

So what’s a broke girl to do? Take the job, of course—with a pay raise.

Note: The three mages are definitely sexy, but this series isn’t a reverse harem. It’s 100% fun, sassy, fast-paced urban fantasy.


Review

Three Mages and a Margarita (TMAAM) was fabulous. I powered through in a day, desperate to know what happened next. I loved the storyline and the characters.

Tori is lots of fun, and I can certainly relate to her temper, although I’ve learned to keep mine in better check. I’m interested to learn more about her brother and the “Three Mages”. I want to know more about what Aaron is like under his arrogant exterior. I certainly want to know more about Ezra and Kai. I’m curious to know how much Justin knows about magic.

Click here if you’re OK reading minor spoilers.

I kept waiting for Tori to find out she had powers or was the real target of the kidnappers. I was honestly a little bummed out that neither of those things happened. But it’s cool that a human can hold her own among the mythics.

I can’t recommend TMAAM enough. If you have some extra time, buy the book and read it. It’s great.
