5 STARS

I don't know how the woman does it, but her books just get thicker with each release. And this book? Well she REALLY THICK. So set aside some time, brace yourself and prepare for one hell of a ride. Literally.
I've seriously missed Keri's unique brand of world building. I loved her PNR series. But this world? Well it's just something entirely different.
Nightshade was unlike any book I've ever read. It was full of captivating and gritty world building. It had Keri's signature dark layers, but it was also incredibly unique. And the romance? One that defies everything, including time. My suggestion? Go into this completely blind. I will also say that if you've read Master of Salt & Bones, you'll appreciate this one even more.
Now about this book, what can I tell you? It had a bit of everything; angels, demons, monsters, and sinners. If there's one thing that I've learned about Keri's writing, she's not afraid to give you the very depths of human depravity. And this book takes you into the very pits of that darkness, but with a twist.
Van Croix is an enigma that I couldn't get enough of. He's captivating, cold, tortured, and something just...other. When each new layer of his gets peeled back, you get sucked in even deeper into this world. And let me tell you, there's a lot of it. The romance is a slow burn. The pacing was deliciously torturous but also perfect for the story.
Nightshade brought a dark and captivating world that I never wanted to leave. Full of vivid characters, spine tingling setting, and a romance unlike any I've ever read. In one word, I'm hooked. TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY HOOKED. SO GOOD

You are a mystifying enigma, Mister Van Croix.”
His gaze swung back to me, devouring me in one sweep. “And you are a frustrating distraction, Miss Ravenshaw.”

You belong to me, Farryn. Should another man dare to lay so much as a finger on you, I will flay his hand and shine my boots with his skin.”
