About this listen

When you finally meet the monster hiding under your bed.

One, two, I'm coming for you.

She's my obsession.

Three, four, kneel on the floor.

I want to possess her in every way.

Five, six, I'm up to my old tricks.

She knows me as The Portland Serial K!ll3r.

Seven, eight, lay in wait.

Little does she know I'm watching her.

Nine, ten, never to be seen again.

Welcome to your worst nightmare, Little Lamb.

Who am I? Let me introduce myself. I'm Death. And I have found my Queen.

Ella McCloud, you're the flicker of light in my dark, dark world. The color in my grayscale existence.

I yearn for you like the night yearns for the stars.

In the Shadows is a dark, age-gap romance standalone with an unhinged hero. It contains multiple POVs, multiple storylines, and many exciting moving pieces that come together in one satisfying and unexpected HEA. For mature listeners.

What a dark and beautiful story

JA really knocked it out of the park with this book. I usually don’t “read “ much but I also read this book as well I preordered the audiobook. It’s wonderfully written and narrated. It’s not the usual dark mafia romance I listen to and that’s what I loved about it! It’s got tropes I love. Stalker, OTT unhinged. I loved it and hope the story continues with these characters!! Highly recommended.

Overall good story that kept me guessing

Suspense was really good. The audiobook had several mispronunciations that were distracting and the male character could be heard swallowing and even a tummy rumble once haha slightly distracting but not a huge deal

Love the audio and the book

you amazing amazing author you are !!!! This book was so exciting and nerve-racking but overall I enjoyed this book so much . This dark and twisted. This is what I mean when I say that by far on what dark romancei love , a mask man who is welling to do anything for a woman and has a hidden identity and twisted justice . Love it.

An Almost Perfect Dark Romance

If you have any sort of trigger please check for trigger warning before listening to this. There is a lot going on.

I love love loved this book. So many twists, turns and OMG moments. You can't help but fall for all these flawed characters. Each with their secrets and own issues but together are perfect.

The narrators were simply amazing, I think I have a new favorite in John Hartley. They made this story very interesting to listen to and drew you right into the story.

Death!!!

This book was a wild ride, and I loved every single moment of it. The sweetness of Sebastian and the darkness of death. This book gives you the best of both romance worlds. Definitely worth the credit.
