A spellbinding rivalry unraveled by fate... A sapphic romance born from the ashes of prejudice… A Regency Era tale of lust and magic.
Iona's magic thrives in ways that defy explanation.
The threads of fate pull Iona to Lysander College, an illustrious school for aristocratic witches of great renown. Though Iona is only a novice witch with no ancestral claim to old magic, her anomalous power garners the unwanted attention of imperious witches in her class.
Ariadne is a prodigy of magic descended from a prestigious bloodline of witches.
Ariadne is her family's one hope of maintaining their noble status in high society. When Iona arrives at college under mysterious circumstances, wielding magic that somehow rivals Ariadne's, she makes it her vendetta to put Iona in her place.
The scholarly witches of Lysander College share one common goal: to claim the coveted pendant of Morgan Le Fay.
Within the pendant's shimmering stones lies indomitable power, which can only be claimed by the witch who wins Morgan's arcane trials in Spring. Ariadne must claim the pendant for her family or face the consequences should she fail. Ariadne will not let Iona steal her victory, though she might steal her heart.
Her Spell That Binds Me is an FF rivals-to-lovers, dual POV, dark fantasy romance novel, second edition. Contains mature themes.

I enjoyed reading the story of Ariadne and Iona, the sex is hot and the story has a good plot that really kept me engaged. I'm not a person who really notices punctuation or grammar stuff unless its really bad and I didn't have any problems with that here. The world building was fantastic and I'm interested to know about some of the other side characters in this storyline but I definitely got the sense this could be a series but its a HEN and wraps up everything so that if its not a series I'm...

4.5 stars When I first started reading it I thought that the writing style was a bit awkward and that the names were used too often, but once Iona and Ariadne met I pretty much stopped noticing anything else. Their rivalry, their banter and their eventual romance were simply enthralling. I liked them as individuals too, Iona so timid only until challenged and Ariadne so guarded and arrogant to hide the insecurities within, but I loved it when they were together. They brought out the best in...

I initially gave this 3 stars, but it really needs a 4. Well crafted(pun intended), with action, twists, and turns. Some may give 5 stars, but I do not like the waste of words and pages, detailing out sex, several times, for several pages. I usually just skip books that have so much of it. I'm glad I didn't skip it because it is a good story. ) One person found this helpful

I was immediately taken aback by the quality and elegance of the prose, which is what got me initially hooked. I like to think my vocabulary is pretty developed, but reading this book taught me some new words, which was quite delightful. I was admittedly a bit put off by the choice to use present tense, but I was able to move past that pretty quickly. The romance itself was really something else. You could feel the chemistry building between Iona and Ariadne at every stage of their...

I loved the characters, they were all well thought out and had so much depth. Ariadne, especially, had an amazing redemption arc and an interesting backstory that kept me invested. The world-building was gorgeous, with just enough detail to make the setting vivid without overwhelming me. The forest scenes especially stood out; I found myself wishing I could step right into that world. The romance was surprisingly well done for a bully-to-lovers trope (which i would normally dislike); it felt...
