Back in the ShadowsA Dark Stalker Romance

The line between protector and predator blurs as the twisted romance of a former cam girl and her lover tightens its grip in the sequel to In the Shadows.

My past working with dangerous men had taught me one crucial lesson: knowledge was survival. And survival meant understanding every potential threat, even if that threat slept beside me, held our children, and kissed me with a passion that could consume worlds . . .

Ella and Sebastian have settled into a secluded home surrounded by nature’s wild beauty, where they raise their newborn twins, Alaric and Verity. They’re the picture of domestic bliss―that is, until Sebastian’s eyes turn the color of steel, a familiar transformation into Death that Ella has come to expect.

In this form, Sebastian is driven to hunt and subsequently ravage his conquest. But as compelled as Ella is by his darkness―and the secret, suppressed darkness it stirs within her―she’s desperate to protect their children. And though Sebastian has forbidden her from poking around in his shadowy past, Ella can’t help but wonder about his parents’ mysterious deaths . . .

But Ella’s snooping unlocks an even greater threat. When she’s abducted in broad daylight, Sebastian erupts in a hot rage, determined to rescue his little lamb and destroy whoever dared take her from him. Meanwhile, Ella must play mind games with the madman in an underground house of horrors to survive long enough for Sebastian to find her.
