Brilliant story, I’m blessed to see this author evolve and her writing skills maturing. This book is her best so far.
Romance with a lot of thrilling, heart stopping moments. I even shed a tear, laughed with the characters and held my breath when all seemed lost.
Who is the killer? I didn’t see that coming at all. I yelled at the author don’t kill Elvis!!! You’ll have to read this story to understand that one.
What a ride of emotions as this killer is hunted down. Will the detective and Betty Boop survive? And what about their friends? I loved the secondary characters in their circle too.
Well written story and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
I received an ARC of this book and this is my voluntarily, honest review of it.
‘Shadow game’ is the third book of writer Kay Maree and is a standalone. It’s not a part of the ‘Mine’ series.
I read and enjoyed her first two books very much so when I was giving the opportunity to read an ARC of her newest book ‘Shadow game’, I took the chance to read it although I wasn’t totally sure if it would be a story for me. But after reading it, I’m so glad that I did take the chance because I read the book out in one day! The plan was to read a few chapters and then to do some chores but at the end of the day, I forgot all about the chores and just continue reading the book! I totally loved it.
Leia James isn’t very lucky in the men department. So after another disappointment, Leia is convinced by her gay friend Georgie to go out and sing the hurt out. The last thing that Leia expects on her night out is to meet a hot and mysterious man in the karaoke bar. Someone who makes her feel all sort of things just by looking at her!
Police Detective Deacon Black and his partner Jim are looking for a serial killer and they suspect that he’s on the hunt for a new victim, so when they suspect that they could find him in a karaoke bar, they go looking for him there. The last thing that Deacon expected was to be enthralled by a curvy woman, someone who’s body and voice does strange things to his body and mind.
Later that evening when some man is bothering her, the hot green-eyed man comes to her rescue and Leia discovers that he’s a police man. When Leia and Deacon meet the next day, they both find it very hard to hide their feelings for each other but Deacon tries because he is there to do his job and his job is to make sure that Leia is safe. Because Deacon and his partner have a big suspicion that Leia could be the next victim of the serial killer.
Unfortunately, they are right, the serial killer wants Leia. And they don’t call him the ‘Shadow killer’ for nothing. The clock is ticking, can Deacon find the serial killer on time or will he lose Leia before they even had a chance to build a future together?
I didn’t really know what to expect from this book but after reading it, I can say that it’s now my favourite book of Kay Maree. In some small way this story reminded me a bit of Kristen Ashley her books and being a big fan of her, that made me very happy.
So what must you know about this book? First, this story is about a hot, alpha man and a sassy, curvy woman, second if you don’t love insta-love romance then don’t read this book. Third, be prepare for some hot, hot sex scenes (even one with handcuffs!!!). And fourth, although this books has a serial killer in it, for me, it was a romance story with a bit suspense in it not the other way around (something that I really loved).
So if you like all that….. what are you waiting for….. READ this book!
