A sexy symphony of passion, suspense, and raw chemistry!!! With her trademark of unapologetically sexy romance, Meghan March continues to deliver stories that are riveting, palpable, and consuming. And in her latest installment to the Beneath Series, Meghan has readers craving for their very own, Bishop, an alpha tattooed hero in Beneath These Shadows.
“I want you. I’m not making any secret of that, but now I’m going to wait until you admit that you want me just as much.”Beneath These Shadows is the sixth book of the series but it can most definitely be read as a standalone although past characters of the series are brought back into the mix of the story. New Orleans is a city notorious for it’s nightlife. Who wouldn’t want to visit the Big Easy especially during Mardi Gras? So what happens beneath the shadows of New Orleans? Will an unlikely pair find love?
Eden Matthew has lived all her life in a protective bubble. As one of the illegitimate daughter of a notorious mob boss, Eden never got to experience freedom that is until her father’s right hand man informs her that she must go into hiding as her father is being investigated and targeted by the FBI. It is there she is informed to pack her bags and not make any contact with her father till it is safe. With a new form of identification, Eden decides to go to New Orleans.
“Eden had plowed through my walls without trying, and from the moment I’d met her, everything had become more vivid. She was the turning point. She was a wild card.”Given the fact that Eden has lived a very sheltered life, she didn’t take into account that hotels in New Orleans are booked because of Mardi Gras. So when she went walking along the streets of New Orleans, she finds herself in trouble when it became obvious that she was an easy target for criminals. Luckily for her, Bishop happens to spot Eden and rescues her before any trouble could happen. It is in that moment that Bishop finds himself helping out Eden several more times. Maybe it was her beauty or innocence that attracted Bishop to Eden but in the end, he couldn’t help but fall for her hard.
It didn’t take long for Eden and Bishop to become a couple as he found it easy to fall for her. She was sweet, simple and yet she was bold. Eden is no wallflower as she begins to spread her wings. Slowly, readers begin to see a new side to Eden. A woman learning to fly and gain her independence. But what happens when her time in New Orleans comes to an end and her return back to New York is inevitable? Will Eden discover that her wings are once again clipped? Or will this new Eden learn to soar beneath the shadows and into the light?
“The orgasm hit me so hard and so fast, I couldn’t keep my eyes open. Stroke after stroke, I writhed beneath him and begged him not to stop. It was a revelation. It was everything.”Meghan March stays true to her word when she states that she writes unapologetically sexy romance because Beneath These Shadows was that and so much more. I absolutely loved Bishop and Eden’s chemistry. Their transition from friends to couple was undeniably explosive. I loved that Meghan showcased different sides of Bishop. Yes, he was a protective alpha male but he was also understanding and loving. What especially drew me to this story was that Meghan beautifully weaved the sights and sounds of New Orleans in the backdrops of a romance that was taking center stage. So if you are looking for a love story that had heart, steam, suspense and passion then Beneath These Shadows is the book for you.
