My fate is in the dark,And my shadow there is real… else.
Something dangerous.
At the age of eighteen, Corvina and her best friend are swept away to the Shadowborn Academy, the one place where magic and darkness coincide.
It’s also where pupils go missing, teachers don’t play by any rules, the therapist is hot, and boys with dark magic love to seduce your soul.
With death becoming a game at the academy that not even the Dark or Light Fae seem capable of winning, my love life should really be the last thing on my mind…especially when one of the boys just so happens to be my teacher!
Shadowborn Academy is a Dark Reverse Harem Paranormal Fae Romance for 18+. In this world, not even the shadows can be trusted…

Well, what a cliffhanger…
Corvina was tricked and died as a kid, only to be reborn as a shadowborn. Even at the start of it all, there are secrets that can mean life or death. Pitch is her shadow, her demon, but he has plenty of secrets himself. One, being that there was a reason to why he lured her to the wishing well in the first place. The place where Vina lost her life.
Attending the academy with her best friend, Corvina soon learns there is more going on behind the scenes. Secrets keep piling up, death clings to the headmaster, students are going missing, and there seems to be something-or someone who is stalking Vina’s every move. It all comes to a head when betrayals are made and and one hiding in the shadows emerge. Seems the biggest threat of all is the one no-one saw coming. Now the best friend is missing and it appears Vina and her guys don’t have a lot of time. Death seems to be right around the corner, but who is it going to be?
I’m on the edge of my seat, so on to the next book!
Reminded me of Harry Potter books with a female lead.
This has a big scene at the beginning. Then everything died down with little to nothing happening. Through our the the book there are small things that take place, but nothing wowing. I think this book was okay, but I’m not interested enough to read book 2.
Omg I’ve never read fea like this holy cow this is such an intense book. Book hangover worthy for sure they have out dine themselves again. There’s action, hot guys, student teacher romances yes more than one.the secrets are so dark and twisty they will blow your mind. This book was exceptionally mind blowing.
2 amazing author’s back again!! And boy did they deliver like always! This book was aaaaaamazing, the world building, the characters, the story everything was just brilliant!!! I loved Corvina and I can’t wait to get more in book 2 I truly recomend this book
Shadowborn Academy is first in its series, where you go to school to control & train on how to harness your dark fae powers. (I’m still confused as to what a shadowborn is though.) Right off the bat, we are introduced to Corvina’s harem although it is not exactly confirmed until near the end because it is not confirmed until then, SA is a slow burn. It enfs on a little cliffy, so I’m eagerly waiting for Year Two.
*Spoiler Alert*
Corvina (FMC) died when she was a child, killing everyone nearby and as a result makes her a Shadowborn. Someone who is touched by Dark magic. When she turned 18 her, her friend Sage & her shadow Pitch are enrolled at the Shadowborn Academy. A school where they have to go to hone their magic and darkness. Full of hot students, teachers and wardens. Ones of which are therapist – Gage, Warden – Zander, Student and Prat (lol) Jonah as well as her shadow – Pitch. All of which have an interest in Corvina. Add to that all the student going missing. Its a great start to this series and i already love these characters. Even sweet Echo. Boy was that ending epic! I didnt see that coming thats for sure. Dying for the next book because this one was so good!
Wow! This book was so addictive! Once I started reading I didn’t want to put it down. It was an magical story full of darkness. I really loved Cornina, a Showdowborn that is learning how to control her dark powers. I can hardly wait to see what these two amazing authors come up with next.
Omg this book completely had me hooked ……I couldn’t put it down it was amazing , full of action , dark magic with handsome males born a human ?? Touched by dark magic ….now a shadowborn …..powerful young corvina trusts no one but her best friend sage …..until the academy …..what will happen…..will Corvina make it ….will she succeed were everyone thinks she shall not …… well you will just have to read this amazing , awesome exciting,and intriguing book that had me within the first chapter……seriously people read this book
I need the second book in this series asap. Corvina is a fantastic character who has been through the absolute wringer. Yet, she is strong and spunky. Pitch is the one I want more of. He is dark and twisty and angsty and draws me in. I love how twisty and turny this plot is and it keeps you guessing until the end and leaves you wanting more now that it is over. I cannot wait for the second installment in this series.
Received and ARC for an honest review
I can’t get enough of these two authors and their collaboration!
I loved,LOVED this storyline.Both authors did an exceptional job at reeling me in from start to finish.The aspect of shadowborn people was totally new and intriguing for me and I loved the history of Gods/Godesses added to the story.The fact that all of these people have experienced some form of trauma in becoming what they are,but found the ability to overcome and accept their new realities,absolutely inspiring.The heroine was equal parts stone cold badass and sensitive.Her love interests,man I can’t wait to see how each one pans out.& that reveal and cliffhanger at the end,one word,WOW! All the angst and tension has me BEGGING for the next book.
Upon her eighth birthday the life she knew ended suddenly, and she was reborn into a new world.
Everything changed and things that shouldn’t be possible are, creatures that shouldn’t exist, do.
Now she’s eighteen and it’s time to start a new and exciting chapter of her life.
Shadowborn Academy is a place for what she has become, a place to learn control.
Is that all the school is for thought..?
The cover of this book appealed to me and I just knew that it was going to be my kind of read. I was NOT dissapointed.
Oh my gosh! the darkness, the endless possibilities of powers, the enigmas known as Pitch and a fantastic absorbing storyline what more does one need!
Add the fantastic array of characters into the mix and I could read about them all forever and a day!
I’ve never read either author before and now I’m asking myself why!!
They created the perfect balance of romance, depth and action whilst exploring an unfamiliar environment.
I cant wait for year two to begin, I just know it’s going to be amazing!!
Received ARC from Author for Honest Review.
I Give this Book a 3.5-4/5 Star Rating, Listing as 4.
Cliffhanger(?): Absolutely!
Romance: kinda like a teeter totter so..3-3.5/5.
Heat: 2/5, Not as Much as I was Anticipating (due to previous books). But it actually fits the story cause the story line is very important.
Suspense: 5/5 In All Honesty I’m still trying to figure it out, when I encountered the cliffhanger! Now I Gotta wait for Book 2!
Drama: 4/5
No Spoilers.
I had to read this one pretty slow, cause I was afraid I’d miss small details.
It was a bit hard to get through, cause it felt a bit congested in some areas with details happening back to back that I did have to reread a few times.
But it is a bit hard to understand some of the details and picture of places and specific characters.
But the storyline is good!
I Love Pitch!! XD
Looking forward to reading more from this Author!
Ahhh! This book was Amazing!! Once I started reading, I just couldn’t stop! I got lost in this world of Darkness and Magic, it was so consuming! I’ve read these two authors separately, this is my first book of them together and They Killed It! Bailey is a Magic Guru and Snow is a Darkness Queen, together they are just spellbinding! The world-building is alluring, it’s like Hogwarts meets Greek mythology on crack with a whole lot of Sexy! The details don’t bog you down, from the forest to the academy, the animals, everything comes to life so enchantingly. The characters are wonderful! I loved Vina immediately, She is strong, smart and powerful! She is so easy to love and has a pension for trouble, her knowledge, courage, and loyalty is tested at every turn. I loved her guys! Each one is intriguing and they are all hiding secrets. Who can be trusted and who is the enemy? I loved how thrilling and suspenseful this book was! I will definitely have these characters stuck in my mind! I’m so giddy for this series! I feel like it’s just what I’ve been needing, a new obsession! I love a good shocking surprise and we got a few at the end. The ending was heart-pounding! I’m still dying with questions and trying to piece what I know together! There is so much to look forward to and I can’t wait to see how things will play out! I didn’t want to get into detail and give away any spoilers, so read it and find out how awesome it is! This book was so GREAT and a perfect way to end or start your Year! I received an Arc in exchange for an honest review.
