Deadly Declaration

Shadow Veil Academy, Book 2

By: Heather Renee

Narrated by: Vanessa Moyen

Some decisions aren't meant to be easy.

Raegan is back at Shadow Veil Academy, even though it's the last place she wants to be. Her heart is broken, but her rage is even more prominent as she learns just how little has been done to find Malina since she was last there.

When an unexpected visitor arrives at the school, Raegan turns to her dragon side as she searches for the answers she needs to move forward. All the while, thoughts of Enzo's betrayal are never far from her mind, but no matter his reasons, she's not sure she can ever trust him again.

Though, when unforeseen circumstances push them together, ready or not, Raegan has to decide which is more important: Her heart or the chance to figure out just who she really is.

Just keeps getting better!!

Heather Renee knocks this second book out of the park and Vanessa Moyen is absolutely magnificent!! Raegan returns to school stronger yet more vulnerable ready to take on whatever comes next. Love and Craziness are represented in a man and her dear old mother. It is written so well and the performance was spot on. Definitely recommended and cannot wait for the third book!! 💕

Fantastic middle book

Renee takes us once again into a world of magic and dragons. While Regan must discover more about herself, she’s afraid of leaving those she loves behind. Filled with revelations, betrayals, action and romance, this is a middle book that leaves the listener breathless and eager for the next. Moyen again captures Regan’s ferocity and vulnerability, making her both relatable and admirable simultaneously. I cannot wait to listen to the next book in the series.

More supernatural action please!

I have no idea how to write a review without spoiling anything that was revealed in this book, so this will be a short review. Keep in mind that Deadly Declaration is the second in a series and they need to be read in order since it is a continuing plot. Overall, this was a fast paced read that I blew through in one day. I could not put it down since it was completely engaging, full of action and surprises, a great romance, world building and all things paranormal. What started as a supernatural academy series evolved into an epic paranormal world.


My favorite part of the story was the complicated relationship between Raegan and Enzo. They were entertaining, be it when fighting or other things... the sparks flew between them and I loved the way Raegan interacted with him. I liked how he respected her choices but still battled his caveman instincts. Basically is was swoony and I ship them hard.


I listened to the audiobook and the narrator is one of my favorites! I will gladly listen to anything she wants to narrate, her personality and different voices make every story alive so I highly recommend listening to this series!


The ending left me hanging and I need the third book as soon as possible to see what Raegan and her fantastic crew will do next.

Deadly Declaration

Wow this book was a wild ride. Rae is heartbroken and trying to figure out what to do next. I loved some of the new characters and new perspectives they brought. I also loved that we got to learn more about the dragon side since that didn't really get addressed much in the first book but it get explored a lot more in this one. Rae also has to deal with Enzo after what happened in the first book. I was pleased with how this situation was handled and what happened here. Rae has to figure out how to fight Malina and how to have the good side win since she is so powerful. There was action and a battle though it has shifted more away from being academy based though this was still a really good book. I can't wait for the next book!

Keeps getting better!

Book 2 in the Shadow Veil Academy series and Heather did NOT disappoint. The story keeps me waiting for the next twist, which I never see coming! I fall more in love with these bad*** characters with each book, I never want it to end. Vanessa Moyen does a fantastic job of narrating the story and making the characters bring the story to life!
