About this listen

Shallow Hill is where souls suffer slow and miserable deaths.

When River McAllister escaped from Shallow Hill, she left her innocence behind—and some of her sanity. Now, she's rebuilding her life with her dream man, and life couldn't be better.

Ryan Fitzgerald is everything you'd want in a man. Attractive, rich, an aspiring lawyer, and would do anything to keep River. But that's not the only thing that attracts her. It's his attentiveness and possessiveness, but maybe not so much his temper.

When her relationship takes a dark turn, Ryan's estranged brother, Mako, is the only one who sees it. He knows exactly what Ryan is capable of, and it's not the first time he had to be a knight in shining armor.

River came from Shallow Hill, though. She's never needed saving before. What Mako doesn't see is that River is perfectly capable of taking care of herself.

The only one who should be scared is Ryan....

This is my third H.D Carlton audiobook and I love her writing. Her storytelling in my opinion even though it’s quite triggering and dark takes talent to be able to write it in such a way that is healing for people who’ve experienced trauma to this extent. As someone who has I don’t know how to express it but it’s healing and I think she captures these themes very very well.

Im definitely a H.D Carlton Fan!

Despite there being a LOT of dark triggers… I was constantly craving to read more and I managed to finish this book within a day. H.D Carlton’s storytelling is so different from other author’s I have read and because of this, I’m looking forward to what she has to offer next.

I liked this book, it held my interest. All I want to say though is please check the trigger warnings. There are some dark DV scenes that can be difficult for some. I found some of them a little hard to get through but glad I did with how it ended. I know this may not be the most darkest of books but the subjects in this book can be a trigger for some and that’s ok. Other than that enjoy.

Good, but check trigger warnings!
