Satanic Shadows: The Broken Realms Series, Book 1

by M.K. Blackwood Leigh Rivers

4.4

Seraphine Winters’ life is irrevocably shattered when she is kidnapped and dragged to the isolated Quarrierton Academy. Surrounded by immortal beings and terrifying magic she never knew existed, Seraphine discovers that her only ticket home is to graduate from this cutthroat institution. As a mortal in a world that views her existence as an affront, she faces immediate hostility and relentless danger. At the center of her misery is Dane Dalton, the Shadow Prince. Dane embodies the academy’s disdain for humans, treating Seraphine with cold, brutal indifference. Yet, beneath his icy exterior and their volatile exchanges lies a web of dangerous secrets and hidden truths. As the two are forced into an uneasy proximity, the discovery of a looming curse turns their mutual loathing into a high-stakes race against time. Falling squarely into the dark academia and enemies-to-lovers tropes, this story balances intense, spicy tension with a gripping, fast-paced plot. With its unique twist on the supernatural academy setting, sharp-witted banter, and a heart-pounding cliffhanger, *Satanic Shadows* is a mesmerizing start to a series that keeps readers hooked until the very last page.

Dark fantasy done right

Image 106: A 1x1 image, likely be a tacker probe Amazon Customer](javascript:void(0)) 5 out of 5 stars Dark fantasy done right Seraphine was living a normal mundane life.. until she gets taken by some shadowy forms. This book hooked me immediately, every page turn had me questioning how Dane could hate her but also feel how he longed for her. The supernatural part of it, the darkness, that was all so well described and well detailed made me love this book so much! Feral Ugh, the cliffhanger at the end killed me because i literally bought this book on a whim and decided to read, having no idea book 2 was not out yet! You will not be disappointed in this book and will be one of my all time faves More)Hide) * !Image 108: Customer Image Thank you for your feedback Close Sorry, there was an error Close Sorry we couldn't load the review Try again Filtering customer reviews Loading customer reviews There was a problem filtering reviews.

Seraphine Winters had a normal life, one she misses when she's kidnapped and taken to an island in the middle of nowhere. Forced to attend Quarrierton Academy, a castle full of immortal beings, the only way she can leave is if she passes all her classes. But as a human, she's hated just for breathing, with no way to fit in around magic and powers she never knew existed. And who doesn't hate mortals more than Dane Dalton? The Shadow Prince loathes everything about her, yet there are more secrets and lies than truths between the pair, and it's a race against time when the curse is revealed. ) ©2024 Leigh Rivers (P)2025 Podium Audio Previous slide of product details 1.
