Radical by Colleen Cowley

5.0

Beatrix Harper despairs for the life of her sister after an earlier assassination attempt by the government. She is willing to do anything to save her... including teaching thousands of women magic when it is very much illegal to do so. She believes she can push attention off her sister - because women doing magic would be the much bigger threat. But keeping all of this from Peter is turning out to be a lot harder than she thought.

Peter Blackwell is desperate. He is no closer to finding a protection spell big enough to counteract the weapon he made and then stole from the government... the real reason he found himself back in his small hometown. He is also finding it more and more difficult to control his feelings for Beatrix, who is never far from his mind. But he also wonders if he can trust her, as he is constantly worrying about whether or not she is teaching other women magic, which could send him and everyone else involved to prison.

Sparks collide in book 2 of the Clandestine Magic trilogy, which was everything I could want and more!

I received a free copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.
