"Beautiful and incredibly detailed...some of the hottest, kinkiest, and most passionate sex scenes, even with the scenes that aren't technically sex...This book and its very slow-burn, artistic style might not be what the average smut reader is looking for, but I would recommend it to any literature geek looking for something adult, in every sense of the word." – HappyCoati for The Gloria Regale Awards, Wattpad
"People will remember it after some time due to its amazing plot...The perfect story for the perfect genre." – _aishimyy_ for The Gold and Pearl Awards, Wattpad
"Have you ever had a dream about a tall, handsome man with an accent? Have you ever fantasized about a man who could satisfy a woman mentally and physically while also cooking chocolate chip cookies? If so, then this book is for you. And for anyone who believes that men who read are attractive... Even though I enjoy books about bad boys, I must say that we need more men like him in books... This character is not like the ones you see in today's mainstream romance novels; he is a complex character who immediately captures your heart... He is the type of character who gets into your head, alters your brain chemistry, and raises your fucking expectations... Never settle for less when you can have a Magister." – gremlinsbookstash for The Hot and Bothered Mini Awards, Wattpad
"While it plays on adult themes, it is written in a mature manner that many people would enjoy... The author did portray great emotions in their characters, putting us inside their heads so we felt all..." – SSears90 for The Lilac Awards, Wattpad
"I love the concept of this story! It was done nicely and I appreciated all the different elements woven into it." – AthenePersephone9 for Phoenix Awards, Wattpad
"The portrayal of a BDSM practitioner who is well-educated, respectful, and enjoys intellectual pursuits adds a layer of complexity to the stereotype... Magister is a complex and intriguing character. His intellectual pursuits, quiet confidence, and experience in BDSM create a multifaceted personality... The dynamic between him and the narrator is intriguing, with... a power exchange that is both consensual and emotionally charged. The portrayal avoids cliches and explores the emotional and intellectual aspects of BDSM alongside the physical." – The Grand Masquerade of Writing Awards hosted byTaeTaeGinger, Wattpad
"The characters are realistic, complex, artistic, and beautifully encapsulate the 'slow-burn' factor of this book... Very out-of-the-box plot... It is simple, not too hard to understand, yet complex and unique in its own way. Both the protagonists are a mystery. Actually, scratch that, the entire plot is a mystery, and it feels like the layers are peeled off moment by moment as we delve deeper into the plot and understand this uniquely crafted erotic magical realism romance while the characters discover magic, sexuality, and their own identity." – abhipreeti for The ELPIDA Awards, Wattpad
"A rare find indeed... The story hooks the readers right from the prologue itself." – sungielxver for The Brumous Awards, Wattpad
"I cannot start this review without expressing how deliciously dark and magical it was... I have read erotica in the past, but nothing could have prepared me for the intense character chemistry that walks the tightrope between consent, dominance, submission, trust, respect, and communication... I wasn't prepared for this book, not because it was strong, but because of how well-executed the themes were..." – Saramitra for The Cloud Awards, Wattpad
"Extremely interesting plot with well-described fantastical elements as well as established characters." – arrowgig for The Watch Awards, Wattpad
"I loved the character introduction... The development is strongly built... The story is original... A perfect book." – sugararmy07, for Realistic Fantasies Awards, Wattpad
