MY favorite in the series!!!

the shadow-man and lyla are perfect for each other! Ugh, I just love the possessive hero trope and he does it so well! I was on my toes the whole book. lyla deserves the world and more and it was truly something seeing how dainn gave her everything she’s ever wanted

Favorite couple in the series

Don't get me wrong, I love the other couples, but there is something about this specific dark romance that is my favorite. I would have to say my favorite couples in order from most to least liked are in this order: Shadow Man & Lyla, Tristan & Morana, Dante & Amara, Alpha & Zephyr. However, I sometimes think that Tristan & Morana might even be tied for first in my favorites list.
Overall - 5 stars: I gave this 5 stars because it is my favorite book in the series. Only complaint on this end is that I wish it was a little longer. I just hope we can get more time with these characters in the last book.
Performance - 4 stars: I know it's hard for women to do men's character voices sometimes (& vice versa), but Heather Stonewall's voice for Shadow Man was just sort of... not how I imagined it and any longer scenes where she had to do dialogue with his character involved... I ended up reading it instead of listening, because it was distracting. I did like Gregory Salinas' narration throughout and I otherwise enjoyed Heather Stonewall's narration aside from what I stated above.
Story - 5 Stars: I gave this 5 stars because I am really happy with how the world is coming together; the twists and turns are always so interesting & satisfying; this couple is also my favorite - I love their story and personally found it the most spicy out of all of them. My one complaint is the scene where she was first poisoned and taken by the guys to lure him out ....what in the what was his method to get the poison "out of her system"....? girl this did not make sense. LOL but the rest I liked a lot. I cannot wait to read the last book! But I will also be sad to see them all go. Guess I'll just have to do a re-read.

took me 30 mins to think of this headline

I can't stop. I was almost late for work for the first time in YEARS because I didn't want to pause it and go in. Obsessed. this will be one of the few series that I can read over and over and over..... I will put it on my list of books and music to play to me on repeat when I am in a nursing home and can't remember to do it myself. just... planning ahead😅

Holy Stalker Daddy

Dane is the epitome of Dark Daddy!!!! He has ABSOLUTELY become one of my top 5 fav dark romance loves 🥵

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I feel like the big revelations were very obvious. But this one has renewed my interest. I’ll read the last book.
