Shadowed Veil Series, Book 2

De: Billie Jade Kermack

Narrado por: Heather Vicky Walker

The second gripping installment in this best-selling paranormal-romance series

With Grace left beaten and bloodied on the beach, haunted by the tortured spirit murdered almost 18 years earlier, she must gather what energy she can to delve into her family's twisted past and discover the connection between the two of them, before she pays dearly...with her life. Rekindling the all-consuming love she thought she had lost when her soul mate walked out of her life in a bid to save her from his demons feels as easy as breathing when her handsome beloved, Beau, walks back into her life. With their promises of forever now carved in unmovable stone, Grace soon learns that Beau's otherworldly ability to commune with the dead is now a gift they have in common. With her every waking moment tainted by horrific hauntings, her grip on her sanity hanging by a thread, Grace must harness what limited knowledge of the afterlife that she has and journey back into her past.

Armed with her determination to survive, a powerful witch, a time-traveling spell, and the unbreakable bond that she and Beau share, Grace, with Beau, must discover a hidden secret and solve a murder case if they have any hopes of surviving. Chances must be taken, their choices a small leap between life and death.

Will their love conquer all, or will Grace realize the heartbreaking cost of playing amongst the shadows?

Dark, foreboding, and interesting

4.25 stars. As with Awoken, there is a quite unique and interesting blend of sweet, young romance with the backdrop of dark, ominous foreboding. As the mystery of the spirit Gracie continues to be haunted by unfolds, the foreboding deepens, culminating into an ending that leaves you on the edge of your seat. What you think might predictably happen throughout is tossed on its ear and keeps you on your toes. There’s a quite interesting and unexpected switch up of POV at one point, which brings even more questions to the surface, and I’m on pins and needles wondering what it means, and with that heartbreaking ending, where do we go from here.

The narration is very well done, full of nuance and emotion, pulling you even deeper into the story. You can hear every smile, as well as all the terror and sadness, being pulled from the words.

Wow that Ending!!

Wow just wow! I need book 3 like now! I am not even sure how to feel after that ending! I enjoyed the story and I love Grace and Beau! The narration was much the same as the first book wasn’t my favorite. The tone was ok when she would talk normal but she got high pitched a lot. Can’t wait for the next book!

Another great listen by Billie
