"The Shadows Between Us is my favorite kind of fantasy: dark, mesmerizing, and completely addictive. With a gripping mystery and layered characters, it's a glittering tale of love and the pursuit of power. Put simply: it's the Slytherin romance we've all been waiting for." —Kerri Maniscalco, #1 New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of Stalking Jack the Ripper

“Tricia Levenseller’s latest, The Shadows Between Us, is a decadent and wickedly addictive fantasy, full of schemes and court intrigue, and delightful descriptions of food, which I am always a fan of.” —Kendare Blake, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of the Three Dark Crowns series

“A wickedly fun romp with corsets and jeweled daggers, Levenseller drops us into a competitive royal court, led there by Alessandra, an unapologetically ruthless and self-confident courtier who aims to overthrow the Shadow King and become queen. The king’s mysterious abilities and dark secrets complicate her passion to rule, all building to a sizzling, unbidden romance. The Shadows Between Us will heat up the page—and your heart.” —Emily R. King, author of The Hundredth Queen series

"A viciously satisfying romance featuring two well-matched opponents." —Booklist

Praise for Tricia Levenseller:

Her final clash with the god is heart pounding, and her triumph in front of her village and father is satisfyingly righteous." -- The Bulletin for the Center for Children's Books, on Warrior of the Wild

"Levenseller has created a formidable female character who can take care of herself as she makes some hard decisions.” —School Library Journal, on Daughter of a Pirate King

Reviews

5 stars !

"I already own the 1st edition of this book, when I saw the new edition with sprayed edges I had to get it! Very entertaining story, easy to read."

Loveshiiki (5/5)

I wish I could read this for the first time again

"I wish I could read this book for the first time over and over again. Such a good read and beautiful book. I thoroughly enjoyed the character development of the main characters and the plot twists. I enjoyed every second of this book, it was a real page turner and drew me into the story so much that closer to the end of the book I even shed some tears. I wish I could give more stars"

Sandy80 (5/5)

I’m not a fantasy fan but …

"I am not a fantasy fan but when I read this book I couldn’t put it down. It’s one of my favourite books to this day."

Andrea (5/5)

Love it

"Good romance, good character development, good plot"

Amelie (5/5)

Would definitely read again and again!

"To start, this book is stunning! The airbrushed pages are gorgeous, the sleeve is beautiful, and the hard cover underneath is equally, if not more breathtaking. Aesthetics aside, I loved this book. I read this in a day or two because I could not put it down. It was enemies to lovers but not excessively or annoyingly. The FMC is amazing! Badass but again not unreasonably or embarrassingly so. The author gave a nice balance between romance, fantasy and moments of found family and character development. Overall, loved this book and would definitely recommend to friends and family. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

Kyra D. (5/5)

Captivating!

"Fell in love with Alessandra!!! Each chapter kept me captivated, finished the book in two days and I can’t wait to get my hands on the next"

Whimsicall R. (5/5)

Gorgeous. Enchanting. Divine.

"I bought The Shadows Between Us two weeks ago, only knowing the small pieces of the plot. I put off reading it because I had other books I wanted to finish beforehand. When I finally picked it up, I was immediately in love. The writing, the plot and the characters were enchanting, I couldn’t stop reading for hours. Even when I put it down I found myself reaching for it for ‘one last chapter’ after only a few minutes."

Bexex (5/5)

Yes yes yes!!!!

"This book is insane!!! Its soo good, for a fantasy all the story building is so well done, i havent heard anything about this book from anywhere but it truly deserves some hype!!"

Alyssa (5/5)
