"Few audiobooks warrant turning off all distractions, closing one's eyes, and simply listening to the story unfold. Narrator Caitlin Davies creates just that experience as she passionately guides listeners through this gripping story of ambition, love, and desire." â?? AudioFile Magazine Tricia Levenseller, author of Daughter of the Pirate King, is back with an epic YA tale of ambition and love in The Shadows Between Us... "They've never found the body of the first and only boy who broke my heart. And they never will."

* I got this book for review from the publisher for my honest thoughts* If you are looking for sltherian themed romance book then this is the romance and story for you. I also thought this was another solid standalone read that really captured me from page 1. I loved being in Alessandra head. I loved how this book had so much sexual posiivity for girl characters. I also really did like the romance. The mysteries where hard to figure out but so rewarding. I only wish the ending did not feel as rushed and would have loved this even more if we got both characters POV. I was super happy with this read. I also wish the magic system was a bit more expanded but in the end i have never read a lead like Alessandra before and enjoyed that. ( )
