Publisher's summary

One sassy pyromaniac thief, three sexy-as-sin monsters, and a paranormal conspiracy of epic proportions.

It was an ordinary job. Another night, another asshole collector of the supernatural. I free some poor little beasties from their cages, pocket a few trinkets to pay my bills, and burn the place down on my way out. Just call me the Robin Hood of monster emancipation.

I didn’t count on three manly monsters following me home like lost puppies. Stunningly hot lost puppies, but still. Now I’ve got a seductively cheeky incubus, a sweetly enthusiastic demon, and a grimly stoic angel camped out in my kitchen. They’re determined to repay me for my help, and they won’t get out of my apartment until they’re satisfied we’re even.

To be fair, they’ve got no place else to go. A covert band of hunters captured their boss, and the trail is ice-cold. I’ll lend a hand if it means I can send them on their way...and when it looks like we’re up against the same creeps who murdered the person I loved most, you’d better believe I’m all in.

Track down the baddies.

Steal back the boss.

Don’t get killed along the way.

Oh, and maybe hook up with a monstrous hottie or two.

Piece of cake.

I’m so going to regret this.

Shadow Thief is the first book in a new reverse harem urban fantasy series. If you love kickass heroines with sass to spare, drool-worthy monsters with their own sense of morality, and steamy romances where there'll be no choosing required, dive in now!

Shadow Thief

I love this book! Vanessa and Aiden are absolutely amazing. This is book one in the Flirting with Monsters series. It is full of non stop action with just enough sexy times. I can't wait for book 2.

4.5 Stars for this comedic RH with dark undertones

I really enjoyed this first book in Eva Chase's new series! I wasn't expecting it to be so funny, but it definitely won me over. I will say it was a little hard for me to get engrossed, not sure why, but once I was like 30 mins into the audiobook I was hooked. I enjoyed the set-up Eva gave us for the rest of the series. I am intrigued by what this evil organization is doing and how the MCs are all involved. I love the 3 guys, each with their own flaws/darkness but the way they are loyal and protective of Sorsha, but they are learning she can handle things on her own. I loved the humor with our devourer, who is seeing the human plane in a new light/for the first time. I fell for the sexy incubus right away, I can tell he has an ooey gooey center and is falling hard for the feisty yet vulnerable thief. And the reveals on the stoic and sometimes unemotional (definitely keeps this close to the vest) made me want mooooore from him haha. And I am so unsure what the new character will do to this dynamic. I cannot wait to dive into book 2 on audiobook soon ❤️

For the narration, Eva got some power hitters for sure! I love Aiden's voices, he always has that tremble that really works for paranormal audiobooks. Like sometimes it doesnt sound really how smooth his tone is. Vanessa is a powerhouse for sure, and does amazingly with funnier books. I loved her in Curse of the Gods, so sometimes her male voices made me instantly go back to the Abcurses but thats not anyones fault, her voice is so distinct though. I thought they did amazingly, nothing to fault from me.

I would recommend this series to anyone, especially those looking for humor in even a darker themed book! I loved how Snap reacted to things, so adorable and made my evening walks during this pandemic super enjoyable hahaha. People gave me some funny looks while I am walking past them but oh well hahaha. I am excited to see what Eva does with these Shadow creatures and how they can team up to defeat this evil conglomerate/organization. I am nervous about Omen, but we shall see ❤️❤️❤️

Ready for the next one!

This was an interesting read. The author did a stellar job at world building and vividly bringing each character to life in my imagination. A few parts were a little slow-paced for my liking but I never lost my overall intrigue. I’m geared up to read the next installment!! Good narration - I love Aiden Snow!

Monsters can be sexy 😈

This story has it all- strong female, adventure, and sexy monsters! It had just the right mix of all of the above and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Now that the boss is back and not a fan of humankind, what will happen to our leading lady?

Amazing Paranormal Story

I really enjoyed this book. It has a kick-a$$ heroine, and thre hunky supernatural dudes. This book was well-written, fast paced and action packed.

I cannot wait to see what happens next in the story.

fun for what it is

I recommend this if you like a bit of escapism sci-fi romance adventure!!
It's not award winning literature, but the characters have development and growth which is essential to any book and I would argue especially important to science fiction, which can't rest its laurels on real-world assumptions. It has pretty good world building as well and just enough unexplained yet teased at characters and backgrounds that I think I will pick up the next book.

It has pretty darn yummy, tantalizing male figures and just the right amount of eroticism and good sex scenes. I would say it's just the right amount without going into dirty / p*rn territory, however, she has what I would call loose morals which make me dislike her intelligence and relatability as a decent human.

other comments... SPOIL ALERT... and a little bit of constructive criticism + book club discussion if you feel like reading more...

Coming from a lady who likes me some romance novels, I am certainly not a prude. I am a bit of a feminist, and I really detest the word "slut" as it is commonly used for women. Having said that, the way that Sorsha hooks up with every man in the gang, with practically back-to-back sex in a group of "friends" or colleagues is why she goes into that territory. This behavior and lack of morals makes it a bit more cheesey (porn like because it's ridiculous). I know. I did say I like sci-fi and to escape reality. But my favorite kind of sci-fi is when you have a relatable smart human/hero/heroine who will make decisions that you would make ( or someone you can imagine) amidst a crazy world where things are not possible. That's the fun in sci-fi is imagining how a real person would react. IMHO. 3 men is just too much. Giving The benefit of the doubt, maybe she was trying to be original and break the plot cliche of indecision between two men?

Last comment, so you can better judge my comments knowing where I'm coming from as you read this, I feel women should be allowed to sleep around just as much as men. If that is their choice there shouldn't be a double standard in judgment. They can do what they want, they can have sex with who and when they want, but it's a whole different thing when you 'poop where you work' and purposely try to set friends against each other. She is apparently so horny she ignores people's feelings except of course her own selfish need to protect herself emotionally, yet not at all physically. She's a moron. LOL. Bottom line is I feel that her overzealous libido detracks from her intelligence or severely lacking EQ. So while I want to really like her that takes off major points. I don't really like her but I don't hate her.
For the record, I could LOVE a good slutty character, but I don't like dumb people who are unkind.


okay, I am dismounting my high horse.
The bottom line is: I like the book, I would recommend it for frivolous reading and I'm going to read the next. :) But if the heroine(s) continue to be this mean and dumb I definitely won't get beyond book two.

Please excuse any speech-to-text speech-os and lack of automatic capitalizations :(

Loved it

kept me engaged and on the edge my first by Eva Chase but I'm hooked now, narration was good but I do think the female character voice sounded very young I think it could have been done better with an older sounding voice. Aiden Snow perfection as usual.

shadow thief

Oh my....I absolutely love Eva Chase i really do, and when I started reading and listening to this book I was immediately hooked and drawn in. Sorsha is not your typical leading lady, and the cast of characters who have decided to help/protect her are very unique themselves.
I think this maybe my favorite series yet. And as for the narrators on the audiobooks? Vanessa Moyen and Aiden Snow do an amazing job and have me laughing out loud.
