Description

With the fate of Aradia in Áine’s hands, she must choose between letting the love of her life die or submitting to the Shadow King.
While rebellion against the Kingdom intensifies across the realm, Áine, Daelon, and the Icierans are drawn to Aurora Aurea, where witches are gathering to build an army. Áine and Daelon’s relationship is put to the test when Daelon’s body and mind are ravaged by poison. As the sickness draws out Daelon’s dark side, Áine must reckon with her own shadow self, a beast that grows ever stronger as her mountain of secrets reaches new heights.
Lucius, who continues to mystify Áine with his mercurial demeanor and endless contradictions, only works harder to win over his Queen.
When Daelon’s time runs short, no one is prepared for the chaos, betrayal, and upheaval that sends shockwaves across the witch realm and throughout the universe.
The Scorned is the addictive, fast-paced fifth installment in The Lost Witches of Aradia series. Grab a copy today and fall under Áine’s spell as she guides you through a compelling journey through her multidimensional reality.

    You think you’re prepared….you’re not. Get ready to question your own dark side as this beautifully hopeful, inspiring, spiritual and shadowy tale corrupts you’re mind and leaves you unable to think of anything else until you finish this story. The connection to the characters you feel as a reader is as enticing as elixir itself. Drawing you in and bringing you along for the ride for every high high, and every low low….. do yourself the honor and read this book pronto!! I will be rereading this series until the next book, The Claimed, is released in February. Absolutely incredible!!

    Holy moly! Mind blowing is the only way to describe Maggie’s latest installment in The Lost Witches of Aradia. Just when you think you know what Áine will do, you’re wrong! Add Lucius’ poisoning Daelon and their battle for Áine, along with her own personal internal battle, you are on the edge of your seat throughout the entire book! You will probably scream at them all, rant and rave about their choices, and maybe even want to fling the book across the room at some points. Be sure to sign up for the bonus content at the end of the book to read from Daelon’s point of view. This book will give you clarity in some areas and raise even more questions in others. You will love and hate Áine, Daelon, and Lucius. What does Charlie know and how? We are still guessing. Taryn is one of the strongest and most loyal characters in the series. How will Taryn’s fate change who Áine will become? Who will Áine be now that she is Queen? I for one cannot wait to see what happens next!

    Maggie Sunseri never disappoints her fans‼️ In her latest book, The Scorned, she once again delivers an action-packed, totally intriguing, edge-of-your-seat sci-fi thriller❣️ The Scorned is the 5th book in The Lost Witches of Aradia series‼️👏. I highly recommend The Scorned & the entire series. I bet you’ll be hooked & anxiously awaiting Ms Sunseri’s next novel, as am I‼️😀 👍. Aine & Daelon, a loving pair of Witches (& soulmates at that), escaped the Shadow King’s castle of horrors & are in Iciera where they’ve been welcomed into the Icieran coven family, brought the leaders up to date about the witches of Aradia gathering together to form an army to fight the Shadow King, end his illegitimate reign of darkness, destruction & the murder of entire covens‼️🤬. Aine was blessed at birth with extraordinary powers in order to free imprisoned & enslaved Witches, return & restore their stolen lands - to bring Peace❣️👏. That is Aine & Daelon’s goal & now, when fighting techniques training is completed, they’re ready to leave Iciera, with an army of witches, 200 strong! They teleport to get help from Cyrus in Aurora Aurea where he is expecting them! Once there, Cyrus is nowhere to be found! But following Aine’s instincts, they all head for the rain forest, seemingly guided by 2 large, colorful, tropical birds‼️😱. The rest of their adventure in finding Cyrus & his native coven, is reserved for your discovery‼️🤗👏. It’s so deliciously insane ❣️🤪. Enjoy😍👍. Daelon was poisoned by the vengeful King & has been slowly weakening from seizures! Now Aine is beginning to think of a third option to finding a cure, since healers are convinced there is nothing they can do‼️😢. King Lucius is the one with the antidote & she believes there’s a way to trick him, but at what cost.? Aine will be looked upon as a traitor if she chooses to help Daelon & leave their friends, armies & Aradia to fend for themselves! But, will she actually do it⁉️😱. Grab your copy of The Scorned by a very talented author & I believe you’ll agree with my 5-star rating for Maggie Sunseri & her marvelously creative series❣️😍👏. Maggie, what have you in mind for TLWOA in your next book, The Claimed‼️😱👏. Carol R. Florida Sent from my iPad Sent from my iPad

    “Because the blood that now coursed through my veins was not that of the grieving widow; it was that of the scorned woman, with nowhere to look but forward into the ensuing storm.” - Áine And an ensuing storm it was and I have the feeling we only reached the tip of the iceberg in The Scorned. This book was absolutely beautiful and gut-wrenching. I laughed, I cried, my heart broke, my heart soared… Áine’s pain was palpable. Characters left me in absolute shock. The ending was everything I could have imagined and my heart is aching for the next installment of The Lost Witches of Aradia. This book was fast paced and I was unable to put it down. There were several chapters I read and reread to allow the words to pour over me. I am always left in awe of Maggie Sunseri’s way with words and the world she has created. “Community was medicine, and alienation was poison.” This book tackles real issues such as substance abuse, abuse of power, physical abuse, and abandonment with absolute precision in a way that is raw. It speaks to the wholeness of people as a community, the healing power of love, and the importance of balance in a way that is inspiring. These books are my absolute favorite. They stay with you long after you read them. I’ve actually found it hard to read other books between the release of these because they consume my mind. I’m still team Lucius. That sweet boy is in there and we finally get glimpses of him breaking through the shadows. I am holding these words from his mother as hope! "Shhhh," she whispered. "It's okay, it's okay. You are nothing like him, sweet boy. Your heart is so big, and that will never be a weakness. Keep it concealed, but never let it shrink." His heart is simply concealed and I can’t wait to watch Áine break it free. If you haven’t picked these books up you are serving yourself a big plate of injustice. They are so good.
