King Of Shadows

4.3/5 ( ratings)

One Lord.
One Commander.
One Queen to be.
Who will reign over the Shadow realm when the axe falls?

All hell is about to break loose in the Shadow realm.
Literally.
Born to a mortal woman and an archangel father, Allianna is a breed apart from others. So much so, she has been the ward of the Lord of Shadows and his Second-in-command since birth and raised to become the Queen of Shadows. However, she's not the quiet little bride they might wish her to be. She's strong and feisty, and knows her own mind. But where there is a monarchy, there are those who would do anything to wear the crown...

As Lord of Shadows, Kian longed to be more, to rise above being Lord and lay hands on the coveted Kingship. An impossibility without the right bride at his side. With Allianna set to be his Queen, the Kingship is within his grasp once the marriage is consummated. But Kian hides more than just secrets within his human form. Something dark and dangerous threatens the man he's become, puts everything he's worked toward into jeopardy. When bad decisions and reckless actions have the power to end the man and destroy the crown, will there be anything left of him to save?

Islador, Kian's right-hand man and commander of the Shadow army, proves how strong and powerful and highly skilled he is in his own right, whenever he takes to the battle field. Loyal to the Lord and the realm for centuries, falling in love with his best friend's woman, the woman raised to be the second most powerful entity in the realm, probably wasn't the smartest idea. When the world seems like it's coming to an end, who will command his loyalty - the King or his Queen?

King of Shadows is book 1 of the Shadowcrown Duet and is a dark paranormal/fantasy romance.
