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.

Story
Stone was my best friend. My protector. My everything. Until he wasn’t. Kids like us didn’t have the best life, riddled with trauma, bounced around in a system that didn’t want us and couldn’t handle us. In our darkest hours, we had each other. Until we didn’t. We tried to hold on to what little we had. Maneuvering the rough waters of our circumstance. Until I couldn’t.

Story
According to the FBI, I was considered a serial murderer after three kills. What do they call me after fifty-two? They call me the Silencer. One final bullet would have been all it took to stop me from taking another soul, and I would have been doing Meridian City a service by pulling that trigger. An angel crying for help stopped me, and that night, I took three lives for her. Then three turned into eight. Then eight turned into twenty. Twenty turned into twenty-one. Twenty-one turned into twenty-three.

My life has been a series of bad decisions. Marrying an abusive man was the first... but falling for a dangerous inmate where I’m a nurse may be the worst. He’s brutal, heartless, and twisted. But he’s also the only one to notice the bruises on my skin. His forbidden touch becomes my addiction. His drugging kisses my obsession. After I learn the truth about why he’s in prison, I try to escape, but he finds me.

Welcome to Devil’s Crossing. Here monsters don’t hide in the shadows. They aren’t made of myth and magic either. Normal men are the things that go bump in the night, and I am the most dangerous of them all. I am vengeance wrapped in a pretty package, but you can call me Sin, everyone else does. I’m a ghost made of flesh and blood. Legally, I don’t exist. Sold into slavery as a child, I exist as nothing more than a weapon, bringing death where the boss of our underground syndicate directs me.

After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

Story
I see dead people, and not just the men I murdered. I'm in danger of being committed because I can’t tell what’s real from my hallucinations. Everyone thinks I’m crazy when the serial killer I jilted starts haunting my house. He assassinates any man who shows me interest, leaving their body parts under my pillow. During the day, his gaslighting destroys my peace of mind. But at night, he invades my nightmares and makes me crave the depravity.

Story
It was dark, and in my defense, he was tall, muscled, and smelled like the most tempting sin. I couldn't resist, and the second he touched me, I knew I was never going to be the same. It was a night filled with the kind of intensity a woman could only ever dream of. Nothing could have tainted such perfectness. At least, that's what I thought. Because the delicious man I let rail me into oblivion isn't the perfect stranger I thought he was. No, he's anything but.

Story
According to the FBI, I was considered a serial murderer after three kills. What do they call me after fifty-two? They call me the Silencer. One final bullet would have been all it took to stop me from taking another soul, and I would have been doing Meridian City a service by pulling that trigger. An angel crying for help stopped me, and that night, I took three lives for her. Then three turned into eight. Then eight turned into twenty. Twenty turned into twenty-one. Twenty-one turned into twenty-three.

From the moment I walked away from my old life and started a new one in the small town of Shadowvale, I learned there were three rules I should follow if I wanted to survive—One: don’t go outside at night alone. Two: don’t ask questions about the obviously haunted house at the far side of town. And three: don’t catch Hunter Reed’s attention. Me? I broke all three almost immediately. The Reeds own Shadowvale. They live in the haunted house, and everyone seems afraid of them

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

Well, this is not for the faint of heart.
This was unexpected.
I have mixed feelings about this book. The narration was very good and also the writing was pretty fluid from beginning to end. Content wise it was a roller coaster. Through a good portion of the beginning of this book I had a frown on my face. I also almost stopped listening to it because of the content. This is a dark dark romance, mystery, thriller, that needs a lot of trigger warnings. I'm OK with the dark romance as long as there is some consent on both parties, this book towed that line. If you liked “Butcher and Blackbird” and “Lights Out” be forewarned that this book is darker than those two. By the time I made it to the middle of the book I did not like it at all and was not going to finish it but I really wanted to know what was going to happen to the characters. By the time I finished the book I was happy with the conclusion, but it was a dark road to the end. This book deals with, stocking, murder, gruesome horror scenes, child abuse, rape, mental health issues, trauma, and a lot of not morally gray but morally black area. If you decide to read it prepare yourself and I would recommend paying as close attention to the details as you can. I figured out a good portion of the plot before it was ever revealed but I think it was because I have experienced part of the content in real life. These are my opinions and thoughts respectively.
