BLURB:

Cataclysm. Now. Run.

A cryptic, urgent text message turns the peaceful life Skye Barrows has created for herself and her sister into chaos. She must follow her father’s instructions to the letter, but Sebastian Connelly is blocking her way. Telling Sebastian what she must do is not an option.

What He Doesn’t Know Will Get Them All Killed

When a prison break in the midst of a security system upgrade threatens to destroy the reputation of Sebastian’s company, Black Raven Private Security Contractors, he goes on the hunt for escaped prisoner Richard Barrows – a delusional and paranoid computer software genius.

Sebastian’s mission: find Richard Barrows and return him to prison, but stonewalled by Skye, who refuses to give him answers, and with the added complication of her special needs sister, Sebastian finds himself always a step or two behind vicious killers.

Nothing About This Case is Normal

For Sebastian, it should be simple, but this case will test him in ways he never imagined. As probing interrogation becomes urgent protection, the search for Barrows forces Sebastian and Skye into a murky world of shadows and illusions.

EXCERPT

“I didn’t catch your name,” Skye said, keeping her tone cool. They hadn’t introduced themselves. She had wondered about his name after she had gotten Spring upstairs. If he had said it, she’d have remembered it. She remembered almost everything, even things she preferred to forget.

“Sebastian,” he said. “Sebastian Connelly.”

“I’m Chloe Stewart,” she said, “and we can talk right here.”

He frowned. He gave her a slight headshake. “Try again. This time with the name you were born with.”

Now he had her attention. His words, coupled with the weapon that was holstered at his hip, jolted her heart as her world shattered.

Run.

Was this why her father had sent the warning? Him? This Sebastian Connelly? Who the hell was he, and what did he want? Was he the reason the cataclysm scenario was in play? No matter what it was, Skye knew instinctually she shouldn’t hang around to find out. Oh God, she had to get away from there.

She drew a deep, deep breath. This couldn’t be happening now. She needed fresh air, so she could think. But there was no time to step outside as the walls started to close in on her. She drew another deep breath and slowed her thoughts, pushing aside her blossoming claustrophobia before it choked her. She focused on the three simple words her father had drilled into her, the reason why she and Spring were in hiding.

Trust no one. No one.

Trust no one.

No one with the government. No one with law enforcement. No one from your past, and no one from your future.

Trust no one, and that included gorgeous men who carried runaway puppies across the street and were gentle and patient with Spring, when he was the type of guy who didn’t seem like he had the time to pause. Maybe Mr. Blue Eyes was guessing. When in doubt, she had taught herself, say nothing. She stared into his eyes without flinching, wondering, why him? Why now?

 MY REVIEW

Shadows by Stella Barcelona

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I read this book in 5 hours!!!

Shadows it's fantastic, fast paced, original, full of action, twists and turns, awesome characters, and a unique plot.

The chemistry between Sebastian and Skye its breathtaking, hot hot HOT!!
I absolutely love Sebastian, he's my kind of Hero, a bad boy with a heart of gold and his relationship with Spring, Skye's sister, it's heartwarming, all of the characters are well-developed, so well-developed that they felt like real people.

Regarding the story, fasten your seat belt because you're going to have the ride of your life!! Like I said before, it's fast paced, with a high amount of violence, sex scenes and death. What more can you ask?
Highly Recommended!!!
