SensationalThis is going in to my top 5。 I absolutely loved this book, I loved how strong Cora is, what a woman, I loved each of her mates who are all so different, the world building and the story is just incredible! I laughed, I cried, my heart broke and then it was fused back together。。。。 Truly one of my favourite books, ever。

Fractured Shadows sucks you in from the very start。 I became obsessed with this story。 I can not express how much I loved it! Knight and Moreno have done a flawless job of weaving this story and bringing these wonderful characters to life。 The world building had me captivated and the plot was set to a perfect pace。 Cora is from the Shadow Lands a place stuck between the Dead Lands filled with monsters and the Gilded Lands a place for the King and the rich。 Despite societies rules and traditions Fractured Shadows sucks you in from the very start。 I became obsessed with this story。 I can not express how much I loved it! Knight and Moreno have done a flawless job of weaving this story and bringing these wonderful characters to life。 The world building had me captivated and the plot was set to a perfect pace。 Cora is from the Shadow Lands a place stuck between the Dead Lands filled with monsters and the Gilded Lands a place for the King and the rich。 Despite societies rules and traditions that take away a women’s autonomy, Cora refuses to be downtrodden and has a soul filled with fire。 In a move to protect her sister, Cora is sacrificed to the monsters but she is a survivor and she won’t let the Dead Lands consume her。 On her journey to right the wrongs of the past she will meet 6 monsters that will test her, guide her and make her stronger。 I adored these characters and loved seeing them grow as individuals as well as a family。 Cora is a strong FMC and each of the MMC has something different to bring to the group。 I’m just putting it to the authors that I wouldn’t be against another story set in this world with these characters! 。。。more
Melo,
Good readI did enjoy this book more than the blurb, when Knight writes something you have to at least give it a go。 The beginning sucked me in but at about 75% the writing went wonky like everything was glossed over and sped up。 A bit disappointed there but still worth a read。

This story hooks you from the start, the characters are fantastic, the world-building is amazing, and the plot will have you reading it in no time。 Cora is an amazing character, strong and loves her sister, so she volunteers to take her place when something happens in their world, but she never expected what happens next。 The story has great pacing, that will have you immersed with everything that is going on。 I can't recommend this authors and their stories enough。 You need to start reading and This story hooks you from the start, the characters are fantastic, the world-building is amazing, and the plot will have you reading it in no time。 Cora is an amazing character, strong and loves her sister, so she volunteers to take her place when something happens in their world, but she never expected what happens next。 The story has great pacing, that will have you immersed with everything that is going on。 I can't recommend this authors and their stories enough。 You need to start reading and find out for yourself。 Bravo 5 stars!

Jenn,
Loved itI hardly ever read monster books, but I love Ms。 Knight and I liked what I read in the reviews。 I’m so glad I did。 I loved everything about this book。 I only noticed one single spelling error, so hats off to the editor as well。 Cora the Pied Piper of Monsters should def be one of her other titles。 I hardly ever love everyone in a harem, but this time I did。 If I ad to pick a fave it would be Zee。 Holy moly tentacles。

Even better than the last!I am loving all the standalone books that Knight has been release over the last couple years。 It feels like we are being spoiled at the end of the year and Fractured Souls was chefs kiss。 From page one I was pulled in and chained down, the words held my attention and didn’t let go until the last page。 The emotions this book made me feel, from love to anger to everything in between。 And don’t even get me started on the chemistry and heat that poured off the pages during Even better than the last!I am loving all the standalone books that Knight has been release over the last couple years。 It feels like we are being spoiled at the end of the year and Fractured Souls was chefs kiss。 From page one I was pulled in and chained down, the words held my attention and didn’t let go until the last page。 The emotions this book made me feel, from love to anger to everything in between。 And don’t even get me started on the chemistry and heat that poured off the pages during some scenes, I just couldn’t put this book down, I literally forgot my laundry in the washing machine because I was so engrossed in the book。 And frankly those are the best kinds of books, the ones you can get lost in, and this is one of those!

Cora is so strong and brave。 Her growth through the book is wonderful to read and she is such a beacon to her monsters that she claims as hers。 These monsters are so different from eachother and have a few tricks up their sleeves。 Some of these are shown in the bedroom as well, 😉。 Pheww, let me tell you, there were some eyebrow raising moments。 Overall, expect a variety of monsters, magic, action, laugh out loud moments, sadness, and epic love stories from the past and the present。 I haven't read a true fantasy/ paranormal romance that moved me the way this one did。 I highly recommend! 🖤 。。。more

This duo did a great job with this RH monster read。 There is separation of the lands, survival and dedication。 Cora does a Hunger Game type Cora takes her sister’s place for the sacrifice。 A PN but interesting and sexy read。
Renee,
I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie's Book Reports。Our lands are fractured。 Split into three since before my birth。。。。。but they were not always this way。 Once we prospered, magic filling our land before it was locked away with them。 The monsters。 Now we suffer, we starve even as our king grows stronger。 Richer。 And then one day my sister is called upon to make the ultimate sacrifice。 Unable to lose the one person I love, I take her place willingly。 Pr I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie's Book Reports。Our lands are fractured。 Split into three since before my birth。。。。。but they were not always this way。 Once we prospered, magic filling our land before it was locked away with them。 The monsters。 Now we suffer, we starve even as our king grows stronger。 Richer。 And then one day my sister is called upon to make the ultimate sacrifice。 Unable to lose the one person I love, I take her place willingly。 Protecting her the only way I can。 My name is Cora Black and I'm barely twenty years old when I'm sacrificed to the monsters。 If only they know that I crave the same darkness that lives within their monstrous facades。 If only the kind knew I am just as much a monster as them。 Shadows save me, Shadows guide me。 Shadows fracture me The world as it is known now is split into three lands。 The Dead Lands, The Gilded Lands, and Cora's home the Shadow lands。 The king and the wealthy people are separated from the monsters by the unfortunate souls existing in the Shadows。 The women in the shadows have no rights at all ever, and the men are cruel。 Really really cruel。 It is certainly not a life anyone would want to live and it is only getting worse too。 The darkness is encroaching。 And the only thing between the darkness and the Shadow lands is a wall of magic that is contained by barbed vines。 Every year one person is chosen from the Shadow Lands and is sacrificed to appease the monsters for yet another year。 However this year, Cora's sister is chosen for sacrifice However this year things are about to be different A volunteer has come forward and the time has come to right the wrongs of the past。 I really loved Cora。 I loved that she was intelligent and protective of her sister and loved with her entire being。 She had a lot of courage and as very strong sense of what was right and what was wrong。 She is going to end up being the hero no one knew they needed。 She brings them hope and everyone falls in love with her。 And I do mean everyone。 This book will hook you from the very first page and leave you reading like a maniac to figure out what is going to happen。 。。。more

All the guys had different personalities and attributes (and yes I mean ‘those’ attributes)。 We’ve got Grimus the grumpy Minotaur, Bracken the flirty fey, Nero the snake… with 2 ‘members’, Zetros with his tentacles, Krug the orc king, ribbed and pierced for her pleasure, and finally Razcorr, the ancient gargoyle built like a rock, pun intended 😉 These guys formed such a strong bond in a short time and I loved the banter between the guys。 This was all around a fantastic read。 Monster romance lovers。。 this did not disappoint。 -ARC Review- 。。。more

We get lots of action, an amazing adventure, steam sooo hot, revenge, and a romance so heartwarming you will be completely satisfied by the end。

Monsters, spice, adventure, a great plot, and more! I really enjoyed this book。 I love these authors; whenever they get together to write, something magical happens! The world in Fractured Shadows is split into three: The Gilded Lands, The Dead Lands, and The Shadow Lands, where Cora, our FMC, lives。 It starts off with some Hunger Games vibes when Cora volunteers to take her sister’s place in getting sent to The Dead Lands for the hunt。 Every year a woman is sent there as a sacrifice to appease Monsters, spice, adventure, a great plot, and more! I really enjoyed this book。 I love these authors; whenever they get together to write, something magical happens! The world in Fractured Shadows is split into three: The Gilded Lands, The Dead Lands, and The Shadow Lands, where Cora, our FMC, lives。 It starts off with some Hunger Games vibes when Cora volunteers to take her sister’s place in getting sent to The Dead Lands for the hunt。 Every year a woman is sent there as a sacrifice to appease the monsters who live there and keep the peace between monsters and humans。 It's basically a death sentence。 Women in the Shadow Lands are treated as property, they are supposed to be seen not heard; they are treated horribly。 The characters are fabulous。 Cora is nothing like her family, she’s opinionated, sassy, protective, strong as h*ll, loyal and so much more。 She’s an awesome FMC! When she gets to the Dead Lands, she finds herself in a world where every monster wants to kill her。 She must fight her way through them to live。 The problem is, where is she supposed to go, and how is she supposed to survive when every creature there wants to kill her? Along the way she meets some monsters who are willing to help her, although Cora knows that they could turn on her at any moment。 Can she trust them? Does she have a choice?There’s tons of adventure, action, and spice。 The spice is delicious as I’ve come to expect from these authors, it’s done really well。 The world-building is fantastic, the way they write really lets you visualize everything and makes you feel as if you are there on the adventures with them。 While Cora may have a disadvantage against the monsters, she’s smart as h*ll and really makes them work for it。 The story will hook you from the first word。 It’s a fantastic standalone。 It’s got a great plot with great pacing。 If you love monsters, this is a must-read。 I highly recommend Fractured Shadows and hope you love it as much as I do! 。。。more
