The story is funny, chaotic, spicy and overall just brilliant. I loved the plot to the story (don't want to say too much and give it away) and the characters were brilliant and written so well!" - Bookstagram, @thedragonsbookhorde"Desire in the Shadows by Everly Easton pulled me in with its promise of dark romance and didn't let go." - GoodReads ARC Reader"From the very beginning, I found myself deeply connecting with the FMC ... Once the story really gets moving, it becomes incredibly difficult to put down. I found myself reading chapter after chapter because I genuinely needed to know what happened next." - Bookstagram, @between_the_pages_with_sarah"The plot/story felt different and fresh.
