    An Exciting New Fantasy Standalone!
  

*by J***. on Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2020*

The incredibly talented Tricia Levenseller has done it again with The Shadows Between Us! She has written yet another novel filled with lush descriptions and amazing characters that will completely sweep you away on a fantasy tale filled with love, deception, and MURDER!!!Alessandra is a very headstrong young woman, she knows what she wants from life and will do whatever it takes to get it. After having her heart broken by the man she loved three years ago, she killed him…even says this in the beginning of the book, so no spoiler there! She has high ambitions and after entertaining a few paramours, she sets her sights higher…on the Shadow King himself. Her plan is simple, woo the king, marry the king, kill the king and then rule the lands herself. Should be simple enough. Insert evil grin from the author.Alessandra comes to the castle and instead of trying to do her best to woo him with her looks and presence like all the other girls in line to vie for their chance at a proposal, she ignores him completely. Which proceeds to get his attention rather quickly and after a chance encounter, Alessandra finds herself with an invitation to join his court and she finds she’s one step closer to her goal.But things aren’t quite as simple as they seem, for the Shadow King believes someone is trying to kill him, like they did his parents a few years ago. He’s ordered his entire court to stay at the castle until the murder can be solved and it’s there Alessandra finds herself in the midst of a mystery but she doesn’t let it consume her attention completely as she has her own goals in mind still.Alessandra makes friends among the nobility at court and shockingly enough finds herself growing attached to the Shadow King. He even offers her an opportunity to play his “intended” so that the council who has to help him rule until his twenty-first birthday gets off his case. Alessandra agrees to the ruse and naturally, a real relationship starts to form between her and the Shadow King who reveals his name is Kallias. A true friendship seems to be growing between them and it’s honestly a marvel to see, for we get so used to that insta love when pretending to be in love trope, I enjoyed that Tricia had her characters take their time.I wasn’t sure that I would like Alessandra when you know from the start that she has murderous intentions, but after a while I grew to adore her. True, she has a vicious streak, but so does Kallias in a way, since he is the Shadow King, but even his character was surprising. He was built up to be this dark man of mystery and as Alessandra got to know him better, well, let’s just go back to saying it was a surprise. I also enjoyed that Alessandra developed real friendships with two other ladies at court. At first it seemed like they would be her friends by proxy, but a real bond began to form between the three.I was also a little surprised to uncover a line here and there that lead me to wonder if this book wasn’t as high fantasy as I thought, things such as electricity, indoor plumbing, the mention of a handgun. It only happened periodically but it made me wonder if this wasn’t entirely set off in another land far far away. There are no other clues or hints to give this theory any validity, it’s just a suspicion I had, and really in the end, it didn’t detract from my enjoyment. Just something I picked up on when reading that left me in a whirlwind of other thoughts.This was a very much action packed kind of read with a multitude of court scandals going about, think of them as mini mysteries alongside the greater one at large. The Shadows Between Us kept me thoroughly entertained and all the while I was dreading the end because I knew the magic would be over. I initially thought this was going to be another duology, but everything was perfectly wrapped up in a neat little bow and I am honestly thrilled by this prospect! There are so few standalones in the fantasy world that finding one that’s so incredible as this one is like finding a gem in and of itself!The ending was another shocker! Just as you think things might be headed towards a cliffhanger kind of ending, we get a dramatic twist and reveal and it was ultimately thrilling! I didn’t see this one coming, though I admit to thinking something about the character at first, but then dismissing it as the story went on! Let’s just say he came as a complete surprise but one that wasn’t out of left field! At the end of the book, I was completely smitten with the story!The Shadows Between Us is a page-turning fantasy that you will not want to let go of. It held me riveted from the very beginning and I never wanted the story to come to an end. But as they say, all good things must end. It was a refreshing fantasy read with characters who don’t conform to any norms, complete with flaws and all, and I think that is what made them so appealing and had me smiling through its ending! This is not a fantasy read you will want to miss out on!Overall Rating 5/5 stars

*by A***O on Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2021*

This book was devilishly good 😈 A true Slytherin romance indeed!I was hooked just from reading the first couple of sentences (and that’s something that rarely happens) Like who starts their story off with death(?!?!) but still somehow manages to reel you in with so much force! Well this book did just that.Alessandra, our beautiful and brainy MC. I loved the confidence she exerted and the self awareness that she had. She knows exactly what she is - beautiful, smart, unapologetic, cunning, intelligent, goal driven - and used all that & so much more to her advantage. She was someone all the men wanted and who all the women wanted to be. She has a nic for fashion, which was one of the things that helped her stand out from the crowd when first meeting the Shadow King, and it was that fashion taste that had all the women copying her every outfit piece. She was definitely a force to be reckoned with. She’s definitely not your typical female MC - she’s arrogant, remorseless, selfish, demanding, scheming, will do anything to get her way and what she wants, and surprisingly, she wasn’t the only character in the book who was like that. Despite her being that way, she was also very caring and protective towards those she really cares about. I loved her transition from anti-hero to hero in this story, but still keeping the anti-hero characteristics, because Alessandra wasn’t inherently bad, but she wasn’t all that good either.Kallias, our untouchable and deliciously yummy ML, whom we call The Shadow King. He, just like Alessandra, was just as ambitious. He’s not your typical new king in this book (a king who’s usually nice, cares for his people, a great leader, and blah blah blah) NO - Kallias is selfish, ruthless, power hungry, and I mean this man don’t give a fuccc. He will kill anyone who gets in his way, or to make a point to others. He keeps to himself, scared to open up because of the dangers he faces as a new king, and being touched is a BIG nono. His shadows are his greatest strength, but it is his weakness too. Despite all that, deep down inside, he’s a big softie. Throughout the book, I found him so charming, and I loved that he fights for what he wants as a king, and is not bad but not good either; he still cares for his subjects, but is not afraid to be a ruthless leader to get what he wants. Honestly, morally gray characters, just like Alessandra and Kallias, will always be my favorite kind of characters.I loved their relationship. They actually communicate about their feelings... COMMUNICATE!!! Even during their ruse as a “couple”, they talked, they opened up, and that helped them see a whole new different side of each other. The slow building romance, the sexual tension, the understanding and acceptance of one another despite all the flaws - OH HOW I LOVED IT. I loved their playful and funny banter, and when Kallias found out what Alessandra did, HE LAUGHED. He laughed like he hadn’t done so before, and even that surprised me. His openness towards Alessandras sex life - her past flings and romances, he didn’t care, and vice versa. & when you not only have one but TWO morally gray characters IN A RELATIONSHIP ✨chefs kiss✨ He sees her as his equal, his confidante, and he gave her the power to rule beside him - something that she always wanted, and something that she would literally KILL for.I loved how the book talked about how women should not be judged based on their bedroom life and who they’ve been with; how they can be unapologetic about it just as men are. ✨“I’m a sexually empowered woman, and there is nothing wrong with that.”✨ YES AND YES! Definitely my favorite Alessandra quote in the whole book.It was a quick read, but throughout the book you could guess what would happen next. Too many reveals and not much mystery. THE ENDING, I wasn’t satisfied with it. I felt like there could’ve been so much more to it, but it just didn’t sit well with me. Honestly I didn’t like it; it felt rushed and not what I expected. But it is what it is 🤷🏻‍♀️ Despite that, it was a great standalone book that I enjoyed reading!

    compelling and savory while also surprising!

This book is marvelous! I originally purchased the second one about the sister but then read about this one and decided to read it first. Although I’m told it’s not exactly necessary to read this one first, I’m glad I did. The character development was refreshing and the revelation at the end actually caught me off guard! Normally I can figure out the ending beforehand but this kept me on my toes. The romance made me smile while also not being super heated. Overall this book was amazing and I’m excited to read the next one. Plus the design on the edges are beautiful!
