Book Review: Shadowface

 


He was my nameless monster, lurking in the shadows of my dreams. A constant presence in the depths of the night. A kiss, a caress, and a night so passionate I questioned my sanity.

My first day of class at Kinsmen University changes everything. A leaked photo, a dead body, and a man who rises from the grave. I never thought in my wildest dreams the one who haunts me is a three-hundred-year-old legend.

For years, the name Shadowface invoked terror and fear to those that heard it. He’s an entity, an ancient evil that’s taken the lives of more people than I can count.

It turns out the monster in my dreams is real, the demon causing my dark desires. And I need to find out exactly who he is before he destroys me.

Shadowface is a dark serial killer romance featuring scenes that some readers may find disturbing.


My Review

Rhea takes me on a wild and crazy, dark ride with this book. I was not prepared for what was to come. Where are the women who "stan" Jason Voorhees or Freddy. This book was also giving me American Horror Story: Roanoke vibes. 

Although, I will admit that despite me really enjoying this book, in the beginning it did take me a bit to really get into the story. Even though it had all the elements that I love from my DARK romance reads. 

It was the mystery surrounding who was after Summer and if Shadowface was real or a urban legend that drew me to the story. The further I got into the story, the pacing picked up and things started to really happen. I look forward to reading Shadowface 1979.
