Sanctuary of the Shadow

Sanctuary of the Shadow, Book 1

By: Aurora Ascher

Narrated by: Samantha Brentmoor

Enter at your own risk—and discover the greatest show unearthed in this explosive, darkly imaginative debut fantasy…

For humans, the circus is a place filled with wonder and amazement. For Harrow, though, it’s a place to hide from those who slaughtered her entire clan. Disguising her abilities as part of her act has kept her true identity safe for years.

Until he arrives.

A strange new attraction with no name, no memory of who—or even what—he is, let alone an explanation for his odd yet deadly powers. But beneath the layers of anger and isolation, one glimpse into his inky eyes reveals a soul that calls out to the loneliness in her own.

And so she chooses him.

Harrow is drawn to the darkness, to her insatiable need to soothe the beast who threatens their very existence. But with every secret she unlocks from his past, another from hers whispers free as well—luring enemies who will stop at nothing to get their final revenge on Harrow. And she’s afraid she’s given them the perfect weapon against her…because he’s not what he seems.

But maybe it’s time they finally learn—neither is she.

Review

I loved this story and the elemental part of it ! I loved harrow and Raith’s love story and what they had to do to get where they are.

Good

It took me a little time to get into the story but then the banter pulled me in. There’s quite a bit of spice. Good beginning to a unique works.

Enjoyed it a lot

The characters are engaging and the plot does a great job at keeping your attention and waiting / wanting more!

Loved the ending

I enjoyed a lot of this, where it is clear that everybody is fallible. Misunderstandings occur but they do not stick around long. What I would’ve liked was a bit more character depth.

Not so bad not so bad

Its fantasy with spice and it was not that bad as i thought i loved raith he was so innocent
