I want to put into words what I felt after giving The Shadows Between Us a shot. I don’t want to hate on this, I don’t like to hate on things in general, but I must signal some not-so-pleasant aspects about it. I would call THE SHADOWS BETWEEN a very atmospheric story.Full review on my Blog: The Dacian She-Wolf 🐺 This book made me want to wear a pretty ballgown and eat plates full of food. Written in Tricia’s typical style this book is full of sass, humor, fierce female characters, romance and enough mystery to keep you turning page after page. This book was all that and more! I loved how descriptive everything was. I envisioned something dark and moody, with Frenemies, backstabbing, and illicit trysts. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect from a “Slytherin romance” when I started reading. His character and several other male characters are definitely swoon worthy (some are even cringe worthy). Alessandra befriends him and gives him a real for his money. can it? The King is elusive and withdrawn, but for good reason. As the true nature of his shadows magic is uncovered and attempts on his life increase, she wonders if maybe she’s actually falling for him. She uses the pretense of becoming his friend to help, when really it’s an opportunity to learn his secrets. She enters an unexpected and unlikely alliance with the Shadow King. Once she’s at the palace nothing can (or will) stop her from reaching her goal. As the second daughter of a viscount who is bankrupt, she set her sights on the king. come on! Who doesn’t want to keep reading after a start like that? The story starts with a bang and really never slows down from there.Īlessandra has always felt like an afterthought. I buried Hektor Galanis in a hole so deep, even the devils of the earth couldn’t reach him.” I mean. Tricia literally had me hooked by the end of the first page, “They’ve never found the body of the first and only boy who broke my heart. I’m sure I read the synopsis at some point but I had completely forgotten about it by the time I started reading the book. Later I heard the book pitched as a “Slytherin Romance” and I was all in! Haha. The moment I saw the announcement for THE SHADOWS BETWEEN US, I immediately added it to my to TBR before I even knew what it was about. I’ve been a long time fan of Tricia Levenseller’s books.
