Welcome to the New York Shade!

We've got the stuff made out of dreams in this little slice of Hell on Earth. We've also got the stuff made out of nightmares.

My name is Sin Montero--hellbeast mercenary, professional liar, and your guide.

Supernaturals are free to be who they are in the Shade. That's the point of its existence--just not for me. I've spent my whole life lying about what I am, until it all comes crashing down on me with a single bite. Turns out, my blood can't tell lies, not to a vampire.

Damian Reed is achingly beautiful the way a lion is breathtaking--right until he rips your throat out. He claims my baby brother is in trouble, and if I don't help him find what he's looking for, he's going to turn me in to the authorities.

Now that's a big problem for me. You see, if the Sacri Guild caught wind of what I truly am, they would kill me without hesitation. And if I do what Damian Reed asks, there's a good chance I'll die in the process.

So many great options.

But here's a little secret: I'm not as helpless as I let people think. I've got a few tricks up my sleeve, and a crazy familiar who may or may not really be a squirrel. My brother's life is on the line so I'll take my chances with the vampire. Let's just hope I survive him with my head--and my heart--intact.

I could have done without the graphic instant to instant sex scene..it was a bit tooooo much.
Otherwise its a good read. the premise is interesting, the characters engaging tho I did find Sin calling her brother a child more than a bit much.
The last time I checked, which was a long, long, long time ago I was Not a child when I was 18 or 19 years old.
Love the " familiar squirrel" that's truly different in more ways than one.
Buy this, unless you are a prude you will really enjoy it, and if its too graphic you can skip some of it ( I did). It won't hurt the story line a bit.
Not sure why everyone is trying to turn out the new version of Anita Blake and company as this is the second one I've stumbled on in less than two days, but one is enough already.
Hopefully, it will be toned down just a bit in the future.

Reviewed in the United States on May 22, 2021

Honestly I wavered on whether this was a 3 star or a 4 star for me, but decided on 4 because it was a fun read and I enjoyed it. I really like the whole idea of a supernatural who is hiding in place from other supernaturals for simply being who she was born to be. Honestly I like the whole world building aspect of the plot, how children are tested when they are young to measure what kind of magic they have and how powerful. If these kids have one of the darkling Talents that the guild (governing body) disapproved of or deems dangerous then they are either killed or nulled (Talent removed or made inaccessible).It seems like a brutal idea, and it really does seem like one of those situations where one group decided they are superior in some way and then look down on the other, it’s a recipe for disaster.
Sin as a character is great. I kind of love how she is so fierce about her younger brother. From the very beginning we find out that her brother is missing and he is accused of some kind of crime. And Sin doesn’t hesitate, she is ready to do anything for her brother and to find him. It seems like she has been taking care of him for a while now. Of course during this time period Damien the super powerful vampire figures out what she is and now she is on the cusp of her life changing forever.
I really liked Sin and Damien a lot together, I liked how Damien kind of deferred to her wishes a lot, and I liked that he was willing to do whatever it took to help her get Sonny back, even if that meant not completing his job. But then wham! Something upset the balance, and he doesn’t trust Sin anymore, doesn’t matter that the thing he is upset about never happened, he is still upset and Sin is out the door, trash, nothing to him anymore. And even at the end he is still ridiculous about it, all “she still hasn’t apologized”, you know for not doing the thing is mad about. Needless to say Damien has some redeeming to do in my eyes for the second book.

I really enjoyed this book and if I could give it more stars I would. The world building was creative and unique and the characters were well developed and interesting. I especially liked the dual POV of the main characters. I loved Sinea because she was strong and feisty and Damian was perfect for her. They had great chemistry and I look forward to seeing what the next book holds for them.

Of building characters. So I liked Sin, Damien, the witch and the squirrel. Plot was interesting, story OK.
Foul language was unnecessary! You don't need foul language to be bada**! Foul language does not add to story! There are other words to show anger. Once, maybe twice but not excessively!
It ruined the whole story!!!!!!!!!

Sinea’s magic is far more powerful than she is registered for. And it’s of a nature that’s highly illegal.
Nonetheless, she will use it to find her brother when he goes missing, and she will join forces with a powerful older vampire if that’s what it takes!

As the first in the series it has an incomplete background story, but the main story, the disappearance of Sin’s magic, is solved by the end of the book.

This is a fast paced urban fantasy novel, with engaging characters, and a fascinating world. The side characters are as intriguing as the main characters, and leave you wondering about them almost as much.
It’s a good, solid, urban fantasy, with a little romance thrown in, and a background plot that’s sure to make you want to come back for more.
Recommended for those who love urban fantasy and paranormal romance.

If you like a badass magical female protagonist, a spunky sidekick and a great storyline full of adventure and danger, this series is for you!
Excellent read, fast paced, just a tinge of to die for romance, and epic mystery, adventure, and evil politician/extremists that one can actually beat. I'd give it 10 stars if I could.

She has done a good job of world building and the story line is intriguing. I think there is an unnecessary amount of swearing though and the annoying dishonesty to drive the plot. I'll be reading the next one
