Summary

Some fates belong to the shadows….

Olivia knows everyone at the guild is on high alert, but no one will tell her why. She’s certain the death of her boyfriend is behind it, but the truth is far worse. Darkness has come to the mortal kingdom. When the guild protecting them is attacked by vampires, Olivia is swept away from the safety of her home when her mom and best friend are taken. 

Before she can get away, she’s captured by a vampire, Sebastian, who insists he’s protecting her. But when she’s taken to the City of Nightmares, the most dangerous place in the vampire kingdom, she realizes she’s been made prisoner. 

As she fights to survive in a world where mortals are nothing more than things to be fed on or traded, Olivia must use her wits and place her trust in the handsome, but deadly Sebastian, if she’s going to figure out a way to save her loved ones. 

However, some of the world's most vicious vampires want her dead. Others want her for themselves. 

When the truth comes out, Olivia realizes the ones she loves have been shielding her from a fate worse than death. Can she escape the clutches of her bloody destiny, or will she succumb to the shadows?

Shadow Kissed is a new adult fantasy romance, book one in the Marked by Blood Trilogy. Get your copy now and delve into this dark and delicious world of vampires and mortals.

A very enjoyable read!

If you love vampires and fake dating then look no further!

Shadow Kissed is a slow burn vampire romance full of everyones favourite tropes. The characters were really loveable and fun, really moving the story along. I specifically loved the main character and thought she handled her situation very well. The plot itself was fairly simple but very enjoyable and I am very eager to read the sequel to find out what happens next! The narration was excellent and a joy to listen to!

Had potential but missed the mark

It had potential but some many moments and mini plots felt like an afterthought. Felt like the author couldn’t decide on a direction. Plus it felt like the first half of a book not a full story leading to the next in the series.

Dragged out just for the sake of it.
