Publisher's Summary

A stand-alone story in the Shadow Beast Shifters world. Best listened to after Reborn for storyline continuity.

Melalekin "Angel" of the Honor Meadows has been a warrior her entire life. Battle. Death. Loss. They were her constant companions until the day she met Mera Callahan. A shifter who ended up being so much more. A shifter who changed her life, and now...she has been reborn. The scars of her past are gone. Her losses muted under the new life she plans on living.

There's just one being standing in her way. A grudge holding desert deity who has made an art form out of making her life hell.

Reece of the Desert Lands is a god unused to being defied, and he has a very long memory when it comes to those who wronged him. Angel is the one he blames for the worst loss in his life, and he'll never let her forget it. Their history is tragic and bloodied, and the pair is set to clash one more time, especially when they end up trapped in the very spot where they lost it all. A meeting of the dynasties in the Delfora, the ancient desert lands, will force them to the place it all began.

Here they will learn that sometimes the past defines your future. And that there is a fine line between love and hate.

Note: This is a stand-alone in the Shadow Beast world and does not end on a cliff-hanger. It is full-length, and it is advised to listen to the first three in the Shadow Beast Shifters series first (Rejected, Reclaimed, Reborn). This is an enemies-to-lovers story, with action, snark, antiheroes, and steam. It is recommended for 18+ due to storyline and situations.

4 star listen

Great listen. 4 star listen I’m a massive fan of marnye and jakobi did a great job on the mmc.

I found this story fabulous but a little too quick, I would have liked a little more depth to the story and the background of angel and her sister and Reese and his brother and the past. That’s way it’s not 5 stars.

I love this world and all it’s characters.
Cannot wait for compelled to be popped on audio.
There’s heaps of shadow and Mera and their unborn baby which I’m sooooo looking forward to.

100% recommend this series.

Shadow Beast - Book 4

Didn't immediately grab my attention as book 1 did but I was soon enjoying Angel's story.

Heartbreaking history, passion and so much connection

The history of Angel and Reece is heartbreaking. Right from the first page, I was sucked into Angel's and Reece's past.

After having the trilogy for Mera and Shadow, this felt very quick, but in reality, it wasn't.

The passion between Angel and Reece was hot. Reece was definitely the 'mine' alpha and really showed his Shadow 2 (as Mera calls him) tendencies.

I read on Kindle and read along on Audible. The voice did a good job. Took a bit to adjust to hearing Shadow's voice as different from the trilogy and not as full of brogue as before.

Tricky to review

I was really curious about this one I had looooved the first shadow beast book and the 90% of the second, devouring them and I have love for the characters. However, the third book (and the ending of the second) I didn’t really enjoy.

Plus I like angel but she is a little dry so I was wondering how her book would be written and admittedly, because of the personality of Angel and Reece, It was less entertaining and colourful than shadowshines story.

But I mean, this book was ok, I personally would have liked it more if it was told from both their point of views instead of just her and I think there was a lot of telling their past and saying context instead of showing it with flashbacks or memories or something and was hard to get really invested in them because we weren’t there, just sort of told about it after the fact.

But I did enjoy the world building and imagery and as always Jaymin eves spicy scenes were creative and hot and I still care about the characters so I will probably listen to the next one.
