Can't-Wait Wednesday: The Temptation of Magic

Can't-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Tressa at Wishful Endings to spotlight and discuss the books we're excited about that we have yet to read. Generally they are books that have yet to be released. The meme is based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine.

This week I'm highlighting The Temptation of Magic (Empyreal #1) by Megan Scott.


From Goodreads: 

As an Empyreal, Nicole has the ability to kill any deadly supernatural. But if her power ever awakened, the Wake—the organisation that governs supernaturals—would force her to be their loyal huntress. Or kill her, like they did her mother.

To stay safe, Nicole hides in a small university town, convinced the mythological art collection at a local manor contains a final message from her mother. But before she can study it, Kyan McCarter, the Wake’s most skilled Empyreal, arrives on his own hunt. When they discover his prey has stolen a painting for leverage, they’re forced to work together.

As the creature threatens to expose Nicole’s powers, her tenuous alliance with Kyan threatens her heart. If her true identity is revealed, Kyan will hunt her next. No one disobeys The Wake and survives. Especially when the art they’re seeking unveils a conspiracy that would change the lives of creatures and humans forever...

But Nicole may only be able to resist one: her wicked impulses, or a love that could repaint their world. And after a life of hiding her true nature, who could resist the temptation of magic...

SERPENT AND DOVE meets A DISCOVERY OF WITCHES, in this luxurious, forbidden romance.


I'm so excited about this one! I love me a good high-stakes forbidden romance, and this definitely sounds like it will be right up my alley. It is the first book in a brand new trilogy by debut author Megan Scott, and I am so ready to dive right into this brand new world come release day!

The Temptation of Magic will be released on May 23, 2024.

Check out the early reviews on Goodreads, or preorder the book at Amazon US / Amazon UK / Blackwells
