Shadows Burned In by Chris Pourteau available for .99 cents
Shadows Burned In - Chris Pourteau

Not sure how long the sale will last, but Chris has become one of my fave authors thanks to his Apocalypse Weird: The Serenity Strain, and his Tales of B-Company (set in Michael Bunker´s world of Pennsylvania).

Book description:

David Jackson leaves a successful law practice in the big city to return to the hometown he fled long ago. At its center stands Old Suzie’s house, a grand home once the elegant jewel of a bygone era. Now abandoned, the house stands decaying, simmering in the town’s tortured past. David thought he’d buried his childhood nightmares along with his father in the town cemetery under six feet of dirt and thirty years of grief, but they’re not finished with him just yet. His wife and daughter find themselves in real danger from the unquiet phantoms of David’s past. David Jackson’s childhood might just hold the key to what haunts Old Suzie’s house—and his family’s salvation.  

Praise for Shadows Burned In:

This is that novel of childhood's end and adult's beginning. Of saying farewell to the things you love and that scare you and hello to things you're too scared to ever stop loving…written extremely well and with incredible heart. Complex. Bittersweet. It doesn't let you go. I highly recommend this haunted tale. — Nick Cole, author of The Wasteland Saga, Soda Pop Soldier and the coming Control Alt Revolt (published by Harper Collins, Oct 13, 2015)

Burned in Shadows - Tigris Eden

*Since I did the re-editing of this book, I cannot speak of any errors I may have or may not found*

Burned in Shadows picks up where Enslaved in Shadows left off. Draven has been hi-jacked by the Red Sun Organization, Jesminda is learning more and more about the things Marcus did to her, Faith is learning to adapt to her wolfy heritage, and Belinda is preparing to become the next Matria and accept who exactly her consort is fated to be. Enemies the reader thought were dead pop up and show their faces again, Draven's predicament causes more then a few choked up moments and a LOT of anger. Enri proves he's not entirely what people think he is, though he makes you want to punch him a few times too.

Emotions run high in this second book of the acclaimed Shadow Unit Series. There's many times the reader will be angry enough to scream due to the predicament Draven and Jes find themselves in, but there's plenty of "aw" moments too.

We learn more about everybody's favorite Feral, Blue-Blood twins, Royce and Ronin, and I must admit, I have a soft spot for Ronin after reading his tale and seeing how he's grown into who he is now. Even if he did eat that dude's brain in the first book.

As always, Tigris Eden has brought her world shockingly alive. There's no dull moments, no times when the story slows enough for the reader to get bored, and there are twists at every turn. There's a major, major cliffhanger at the end of this one. It's cloaked as being nothing, but trust me when the reader hits it, they'll know. Rest assured, I've been informed THAT cliffhanger is dealt with in book 3: Redeemed.

While I can't wait to find out what happens in Redeemed, I'm still looking forward to reading about Faith's birthday party in book 2.5: Bonded in Shadows.

I give this book 5 of 5 paws

4.5 moons - "Burned in Shadows" by Tigris Eden
Burned in Shadows - Tigris Eden

I was so excited to read Burned in Shadows because Tigris Eden left me hanging at the end of Enslaved in Shadows.  I was one of those that was cussing at the end of Enslaved in Shadows. GRRRR!!  If you have not read Enslaved in Shadows, I recommend you do so, before reading Burned in Shadows or maybe even this review.  You will want to know about the sexy, dangerous twins, Royce ( LOVE HIM ) and Ronin.  You will also want to know what happened to Jesminda and why she is going through what she is going through inBurned in Shadows.

Can I just say first off, how much I hate the character Black in Burned in Shadows?  I should love him because of who he really is…but I can’t because he is such a jerk in this book.  He made me grit my teeth and made me what to punch him.  (I had to remind myself, he’s fictional)

Tigris Eden definitely had me fall in love with Royce even more in this book and made me fall for Ronin too, even with what happened in the first book.  These two have a story behind them and they have been looking for their one true love for awhile.  They have to be able to share her and she must accept them both and be able to react the way they need, when they are together.  They have had their eyes on Belinda, the sexy vixen, who keeps blowing them off for her own reasons. She knows the sexy twins have their own intentions, but she’s not sure if she could trust them with her heart.  She has her own dilemmas to worry about.  She has to be my new favorite female character to like so far in the book because she stood up to her mother and her brother in this book.  She also was ONE COOL ASS character because she is a Phoenix.

What I love most about these books from Tigris Eden is that she throws in some history into the mix.  In Burned in Shadows, Cleopatra plays a role in the original Phoenix Enclave.  I LOVE this timeframe and when Tigris threw in a fictional way of the story of Cleopatra, I was beyond intrigued.

Tigris makes sure to pick up where the first book left off at and makes the story build up to a very big conclusion because of course the ending was another HUGE cliff-hanger.  Grrr!!  Seriously, was not expecting that for the ending (in the epilogue).  Tigris knows how to leave us in shock and begging for more.

She even knows how to write some very steamy sex scenes.  I LOVED the scenes of Royce, Ronin, and Belinda.  I also loved the one with Royce in the shower.  I highly recommend not reading these particular scenes, while traveling, which I had to do…because my hubby kept wondering what I was smiling at.  (If only he knew…LOL)

I give this book 4.5 moons and highly recommend it to paranormal romance readers out there.

Looking forward to the next installment in the Shadow Unit series.  Here’s hoping it is not very long because I need to find out about Gabe.  =)
