The Sinister Silhouette
By alexgrayson
The Sinister Silhouette was a dark, twisted and mind-blowing read that kept me on the edge of my seat until the very end. As I slowly began to piece everything together the author threw in a twist I didn’t see coming and veered the story into a captivating new direction.
The storyline was a bit mysterious and pulled me in from the very beginning. Luca, Jules and Theo were phenomenal characters who kept my hard spinning as I tried to unravel their story. The more I read the more engrossed I became as I ignored everything around me to finish this book. I loved Luca and Jules and how they dealt with everything that was thrown at them. The connection between them was undeniable yet things aren’t always what they appear.
I love when a book takes me by surprise and the characters are so amazing you can’t help but feel everything right along with them. The Sinister Silhouette is a phenomenal and mind-blowing read full of angst, mystery, suspense and so many twists you don’t see coming. After this book I look forward to what this author comes up with next!
This book totally blew my mind and scattered my heart and soul seven ways Sunday!! By the end of the book I think I literally stopped breathing as the tears rolled down my face, whilst my partner patted my leg sympathetically and handed me a mojito! Yes! You will need tissues….And chocolate…….And possibly a fruit based beverage!!
Holy shizz, how do I do this book justice without giving spoilers?!!
Luca has been plagued with dreams for years, dreams he just cannot explain. The voice that he hears and the pain in that voice, crippling him and leaving him with an ache in his chest. Suddenly the images are getting clearer and events happen leaving him bewildered, frustrated and questioning his own integrity. My heart literally broke! I spent a lot of this book with my hand over my mouth and shouting ‘Nooooo’ at my kindle. A true Alex Grayson reaction!
This will have you on the edge of your seat and on your last nerve, but what a fantastic read! Alex Grayson you are a genuis!
Wow this book was a great read. This was my first read by Alex Grayson so, I didn’t know what to expect. This one was a page turner right from the beginning. Luca is a good guy. He doesn’t come from money but knows the value and importance of family. He has dreams of a girl that calls his name. He doesn’t know this girl or what she wants of him. If his dream aren’t weird enough he actually see the woman who haunts his dreams. That’s where the story gets twisty and suspenseful. It’s the type of book that had me at the edge of my seat. This one has some ups and downs and some omg moments. I was hooked from beginning to end.
“Eternal, everlasting, and bottomless” is my love for all things Alex Grayson.
This book will suck you in from the haunting first chapter and keep you entertained through to a glorious epilogue.
I like to fly blind into stories, so I will not delve too far into this one because it is difficult to not spoil the end. I thought I could feel the plot twist coming. There it is lurking in the “silhouette” and you know it is coming, but it is still page flipping entertainment at its best.
Alex never ceases to amaze me or entertain me! Her characters speak to me every single time proving that sometimes love is the stuff made in dreams even if you have to tackle a few nightmares to get there.
I have read everything Alex Grayson has written and this book is one of my favorites. Please read if you haven’t.
Grab your seat and hold on for this rollercoaster ride of a story.
After having read Pitch Black, I was kind of expecting another effed up book by Alex Grayson and I was right. Not in a bad way, mind you, just messing with my head. This is a sort of 2nd chance/ love triangle story, although the love of one of the trio is pretty sick and twisted.
We have Luca and his twin brother Theo, who are both in love with Jules.
Jules has been in a coma for seven years after having been attacked on her wedding day, but Luca has been dreaming of her for most of those years even though he doesn’t know who she is, and thinks she’s just a figment of his imagination. It’s not until his sister Ella ends up in hospital that he finds out his mysterious dream woman is real.
She’s in the same hospital as Ella.
She’s real.
But the attraction he feels for her shouldn’t be, she’s not his, and can never be.
But he still wants her, and surprise!!
Jules feels the same way.
Only there’s just one problem.
Theo.
The twists in this story gave me some serious whiplash, and yeah, some of it I had to swallow with a mouthful of coincidence powder lol, but it was still are great story, unique in its own way and well worth taking the time to read it. It’s a fair long story, the plot quite a few chapters to thicken but all along you can feel the pull between the main characters. Their chemistry was a deep and intense, filling each page with the emotion. If you’re looking for a suspenseful, twisty, turny thriller of a romance, then look no further, this is the one for you.
THE SINISTER SILHOUETTE just became my favorite book I’ve read by Alex Grayson. It is a Mystery Thriller and a book I did not want to put down till the end. There are plenty of twist and turns, but even when I thought I knew what was going on, I had to keep reading.
In the Prologue: “Luca….” She whispers my name at night, filling my dreams with her haunting beauty. Her tormented amber eyes beg me for something I don’t understand, and her agonizing pain becomes my own. For years she has come to me, calling my name. For years, I’ve never known who she was. Until now….
He stands in stunned silence, starring at the woman he’d been dreaming of for close to six years. A woman he wasn’t sure even existed until this moment. Her name is Jules. She has had a head injury and been in a coma for seven years. There is brain activity, but her body refuses to wake up. She had asked him for help, but he did not know what she wanted of him. And why was it his dreams that she visited? Now that he knows she is real, he is drawn to her and wants answers.
Jules wakes from a coma after seven long years. And can’t remember what happened to her. She is not sure she wants those memories back. Something in the back of her mind is warning her to be cautious. The question is, what exactly happened? She feels the answer to that question will change her forever.
This is the the kind of story that changes and surprises with every page that is turned. Even when you think you know the answers, there are shocking revelations. But even when it seems hopeless, there is “Infinity”! There is no beginning and no ending. Eternal, everlasting and bottomless!
Holy Amazeballs what a book!
This book sucked me in from the start.
Once I started read I COULD NOT put in down. Kept reading till 5 in the morning.
The characters Luca,Theo and Jules are incredible.
As well as all the secondary characters.
The three main characters had my head spinning.
Who’s who and what in the hell is happening!
I didn’t know anything about the book except what I read in the blurb.
Some books are best appreciated going in blind and The Sinister Silhoute is one of those books.
I loved the dreams and tattoos. You will understand once you read this incredible story.
Can you see someone for the first time and know deep in your heart that that person is your soulmate?
Can there be a love so strong so all encompassing that not time or circumstances break that bond?
Buckle up,be prepared not to do anything but read and enjoy one spectacular ride.
Experience the twists and turns,the ups and downs of this read and the thrill of one hell of an ending!
A read The Jaded Series by this very talented author and fell in love with her from the first book in that series.
Her writing is fantastic!
Everything in the story flows perfectly and smoothly.
The descriptions so detailed I can see and imagine them in my minds eye.
It was written so vividly for me it was liking watching a movie rather than reading a book that’s how incredible the writing is!
Loved every single thing about this outstanding book!
Alex Grayson has the ability to just suck you into a story and that’s exactly what happened with this Sinister Silhouette. It had me on edge to the point I was up till 1am reading on a work night, just couldn’t put it down! Luca is a talented tattoo artist who loves his family, but he is having mysterious dreams about a woman calling to him. Thru chance he finds her and the dark and twisty plot unfold.
Jules his mystery woman may not be his at all. This book will lead you down the rabbit hole and leave you happily spent but wishing for more. So much heart break, misfortune and love that you can’t fathom how they’ll come out the other side.
But Alex doesn’t disappoint she delivers an extraordinary journey with a HEA. I can’t recommend this book enough.
WOW!!! Holy freakin’ mind frack!!! I can’t tell you how happy I am that a friend turned me on to Alex Grayson, because let me just say that she totally writes outside of the box in the very best of ways. It is refreshing! Can it be a little dark? Yes, but that’s what makes it all work! It’s so hard to give a review beyond how amazing and cool I think this story is without giving anything away so I will tread lightly. Be prepared to have your mind blown. I can tell you that you will not know what hit you! I can also tell you that you will fall in love with Luca and go right down the rabbit hole with him. I felt every emotion reading this book, even the uncomfortable ones, and it was totally worth every second!
Holy amazeballs!! Alex doesn’t disappoint with this book
I don’t even know where to begin as everything I can say will spoil it.. This book has some definite triggers so be warned it is not a sweet loving romance..
Luca is having dreams of this woman that he can not figure out who she is .. Jules has been in a coma for 7 years.. When Luca’s sister gets attacked and ends up in the hospital and in the room next to Jules, Luca is drawn to her room.. When he sees her lying there he is in shock .. This is the woman in his dreams.. Dreams he has been having for 7 years..
Jules has been in a coma for 7 years when she wakes up with Luca in the room she feels a calmness but then freaks out.. I dont want anything away on why she freaks out lets just say Luca has a twin brother Theo and well Jules has no idea which one is in the room 😉
As the story unfolds it gets crazier and crazier until the truth finally comes out.. But what is that truth?
You will not be disappointed with this one..
This book was phenomally well written. Lots of twists and unexpected turns. I crammed it into my brain with two extremely late night reading sessions because i couldnt wait to finish it. Alex has an amazing knack for creating stories that are so realistic its almost truly scary. I loved this book almost as much as the first one i ever read by her if not more so. Fantastic story. Great read from start to finish.
Holy mind games! I’m pretty sure there’s nothing left of my brain cells-because they were all used in trying to figure out what was going to happen next! My mind is blown, and I have to truly applaud the author for creating a story so unique, and full of creative twists and turns.
I loved the instant chemistry between Jules and Luca-usually when there’s an “instalove” I lose interest, but this was so far from it-that I really ending up loving their red hot pull toward each other.
I do have to say there were a few loose ends that to me, were quite unbelievable; but hey it’s a book and the author did a “good enough” job at tying everything up together.
Don’t read any spoilers when it comes to this book-and it’s tough to write a review without giving anything away, but this book is totally suspenseful and will keep you on the edge of your seat. Once I moved past thinking it had to be some kind of paranormal book, I was so surprised and loved the idea. Definitely read this book when you get a chance! – By Victoria
This book was amazing!!! I loved it!!! Alex Grayson is a wonderful author and I’m a big fan of her books!!! I knew I would not be disappointed with this story!! If you like mystery with a bit of sexiness then this is the book for you!!!
“This woman is my addiction, my obsession, and I could so easily get lost in her and never want to find my way out.”
Mystery, suspense, obsession and stalking….yes, please!! This book was not what I thought it would be while reading the blurb but I enjoyed it just the same. Luca has been dreaming of a woman in the dark for several years. She needs him and begs for him to help her. He doesn’t know who she is or what she needs help with but he feels connected to the her. For some unknown reason her pain is is pain. Jules is lost and confused but despite that she is strong and decides to follow her instincts and heart. What I loved most about Luca was his intense protectiveness towards Jules. He is a natural nurturer and swoon worthy in every sense. There is an invisible force that draws them to each other. The ending was perfect and I couldn’t help but smile while reading the ending it.

What a page turning book one you can’t put down. Lucas is tattoo artist loves his shop and sexy sweet man. Jules is high class princess without the attitude and married to a man that’s totally opposite of her. When something happens everyone’s world changes. That’s all I’m gonna say without giving this awesome story away. This is definitely one of my favorite books by this author! 5/5 stars
Loaded with suspense, danger and the romance readers enjoy, The Sinister Silhouette will keep you on edge and flipping pages until you have reached the very end. Prepare to be consumed!
I absolutely loved this story! Easily swept up in the first two chapters, I did not put this book down until I was done. And that is saying something as the read time was a little over 6 hours.
Alex Grayson snatches your attention quickly with the dreams of Luca and the mystery woman. I found myself then intrigued by this and then she transitioned into finding out who she was and all the drama surrounding that and I was hooked.
Luca is making my list of favorites for 2018 for several reasons. He is fiercely loyal, loving, protective and his character will pull at your heartstrings a bit. His struggle to do what is right versus what he truly desired was amazing to watch unfold.
I also enjoyed Jules if for no other reason than she is strong! To be put through all she goes through and still be making rational decisions when I think many would crumble…that is strength defined. I am positive readers will enjoy her.
Also a favorite of mine is Aria. I’ve said it a thousand times, there is something about kids in romance stories that really pull me in. The adults are forced to be less selfish and more concerned about their well being than just being reactive. They bring in tenderness…usually in the men…and it truly is sweet to see these tough guys become puddles around these kids.
This is definitely a book I will put on my shelf to read over and over again. The story was captivating, the characters were intriguing, the suspense was consuming and the reactions it brought out in me were addicting. Pull me in, get me hooked and then give me some emotional responses and I will keep coming back for more.
If Alex Grayson isn’t on your one-click list yet, you should consider finding her a place!
I am giving The Sinister Silhouette 5 well deserved stars!
This book will definitely keep you in your toes. So many twists and turns you will not be able to put it down. I loved all the mystery along with the love story in this book. If you love a good “page turner” then you need to read this one. This book is another example of what an amazing writer Alex Grayson is.
“Eternal, everlasting, and bottomless,” That is a description of love Alex Grayson uses in The Sinister Silhouette. I was not sure what to expect from this book. I just knew that the story would be twisted in a way that only Alex Grayson can do and I was right. When two people are just meant to be together, sometimes there is nothing in the world other than death that can keep them apart. Luca has been having dreams for years–disquieting dreams, painful dreams–about a woman that he just doesn’t know. What are the odds that suddenly years later he sees her? But that begins a downward spiral into more tragedy and pain imaginable. This is the kind of story that you read a bit, step back and try to figure out what the author has planned. Did I figure it out? I did…but it was even better than I thought it would be (or worse depending on your point of view). I kept reading and hated to put it down because I just HAD to know if I was right and how Alex would bring it all forward. Amazing story of resilience and really, true, infinite love. And the steam we expect? All there too!
This book was dark and twisted and just everything. Alex Grayson seriously pulled out all the stops with this book. My mind was going a mile a minute trying to wade through the characters and the story, and put together all of the pieces of this very complex and convoluted puzzle.
While this story was dark and troubled, there was also so much love. Love for family, love for a sweet little girl with a less than ideal home life, and so much love between two souls trying to find each other and reclaim what once was.
This book is not sunshine and roses, but it is deep, thought provoking and gut-wrenching. I have a whole new level of respect and admiration for this author and cannot wait to read more of her work. This book will be staying with me for a long time.
