“Shadows
had it all—a chilling villain, witches, spells, and a captivating romance!” -
Jennifer Probst, New York Times
bestselling author
Shadows, an all-new spine-tingling
paranormal romance from New York Times bestselling
author Kristen Proby, is available now!
I
am never alone. Not even when I am alone.
I
see the unquiet dead, the souls that wander through the French Quarter.
They
can’t move on, and I can’t stop seeing them.
I
wear malachite for protection, and I control what I let in. It’s the only way
to stay sane. Everything changes the day Cassian Winslow joins my ghost walking
tour and knocks my world off its axis with green eyes the color of the stone
around my neck.
An
unspeakable evil is loose in New Orleans, taking young women and leaving a
bloodbath in his wake. More shadows lurking for me. More unhappy dead. There
might be a way to stop it.
Open
myself up to Cassian.
If
I do, it could spell his death.
But
if I don’t, it’s mine.

Excerpt
“As
I was about to walk down the street, I turned, and there was a shadow on the
sidewalk. Just standing there. I’ve never seen her before.”
“Her?”
“Yeah,
she was about my height. Very feminine.”
“Did
she say anything?”
“Not
that I heard. It just threw me because you know how careful I am about my
route. I don’t like surprises, especially not like this. It’s creepy as hell.
And, yes, I know I should be used to it by now, but—”
“It’s
creepy, like you said.” She leans on the counter and bites her lip, thinking.
“It probably means that someone recently died there.”
“I
know that.”
“And
now it’s a new spirit on your tour. Too bad she didn’t say anything. If she
did, you could add it to your show. Could be fun. ‘Lucy was killed in this building three days ago, and her spirit now
wanders the sidewalk in front of her former home.’”
“Talk
about creepy.”
I
sigh and run my fingers through my hair. “Did you sweep this area recently?”
“Is
the floor dirty?”
I
look at her as if she’s being obtuse on purpose. “You know what I mean.”
“It’s
been about a week.”
“You
need to do it again.”
Millie
frowns, looking around the space. Her shields are as strong as mine, maybe stronger
because she doesn’t just see the dead, she feels
them, and that’s much more dangerous.
She
fiddles with the amethyst around her neck.
“What
do you see?”
I
narrow my eyes. “I shouldn’t tell you.”
“I
don’t want to look, Bri. I dropped my guard for just a second earlier and was
slammed with the pervy thoughts of a nineteen-year-old college kid who couldn’t
take his eyes off my ass. So, just tell me. Is it the little girl again?”
“Yeah.
And she brought a friend.” I reach over to take my sister’s hand. “Don’t drop
your shields anymore, Mill. Not for a minute. Ever. I know we live and work here in the Quarter because it’s
where we make our living, but it could really hurt us.”
“I
know.”
“I
couldn’t bear it if I lost you, too.”
Cash is on a mandatory vacation and is drawn to Brielle right away. You could feel the attraction and protective nature of Cash right away. When she tells him of her powers she thinks he will run, but he fits the opposite. He sticks by her side.
Girls are appearing to Brielle and it is a race against time to find the person who is killing women who look like Brielle. A roller coaster ensues as they search for the murderer. Every step she takes is more dangerous than the last. Cash’s life is even in jeopardy.
Who is harming the women? Why? How will they stop him? The cliffhanger was unexpected. I can’t wait to read the next book in this series, even though I am not usually a fan of paranormal romance books.
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest, voluntary review.
About Kristen
Proby
Kristen was born and raised in a small resort town in her
beloved Montana. In her mid-twenties, she decided to stretch her wings and move
to the Pacific Northwest, where she made her home for more than a dozen years.
During that time, Kristen wrote many romance novels and
joined organizations such as RWA and other small writing groups. She spent
countless hours in workshops, and more mornings than she can count up before
the dawn so she could write before going to work. She submitted many
manuscripts to agents and editors alike, but was always told no. In the summer
of 2012, the self-publishing scene was new and thriving, and Kristen had one
goal: to publish just one book. It was something she longed to cross off of her
bucket list.
Not only did she publish one book, she’s since published
close to thirty titles, many of which have hit the USA Today, New York Times
and Wall Street Journal Bestsellers lists. She continues to self publish, best
known for her With Me In Seattle and Boudreaux series, and is also proud to
work with William Morrow, a division of HarperCollins, with the Fusion Series.
Kristen and her husband, John, make their home in her
hometown of Whitefish, Montana with their two pugs and two cats.
