Shadowed Souls, Book 1

De: Maddison Cole

Narrado por: Marie Hawkins, Nowhere Eternity

Avery thought her suffering had ended. She thought wrong.

After a traumatic start to life, being adopted was Avery's saving grace. She finally had parents who loved her and an entire mansion to call home. Her days were spent reading in the library and exploring her passion for ballet until a fateful accident changed everything and left her at the mercy of her step-brother.

Transferred to his boarding school, Avery's solace comes to an abrupt end. Especially as the moment she stepped through the gates, her stepbrother and his gang of tormented souls branded her as fresh meat. He hates her, they want her. Whoever prevails, Avery refuses to surrender her mind or body without a fight.

Loved it

This was a good read. it kind of reminded me of the Royals of Forsyth University series, but I still ate it up.

good story

the male voice. it was annoying and took away from the experience right from the start. another thing I disliked was the lack of male for male voices and female for female voices. like I said the guy voice guy was annoying but hearing him fake a female voice was a great big no.

What a twist in the end

To start off I loved the female narrator, the male narrator wasn’t my favorite but he did a good job. Now the story, I really enjoyed this book, I really love unpredictability because it helps stay engaged. I love my beautiful broken men in this. I love that we got to know some of the men and their trauma. It wasn’t superficial which again, I can appreciate.

I absolutely recommend this book, now onto book 2.

College RH but so much more..

All MCs are strong, survivors & sexy on SO many levels.
Well paced, secrets, hot AF🔥
Male narrator is a fav 💗 he's how I found this book! I enjoy his rich tone. Especially when things heat up!
Both VAs did a great job juggling the full cast of MCs.
NOTE: IMO we all need feedback. I feel strongly that if one shares negative feedback it s/b constructive not insulting.
This book talks love is love. How can you "enjoy" the books & spew nastiness in the review?
Civility people, civility.
Remember "I" statements? Anyone?
Google it 🤔

Holy Plot Twist

I’m so glad I can listen to book two. The torment, the mysteries, the heartache, each person with their own trauma, them finding love with each other and seeing and helping each other when needed. I’m with her original thought at the end, it could just be another attempt to isolate her. There’s so many questions, I’m running to book 2!
