💭 First before I say anything else I want to say this book exceeded my expectations, and was good. Now I am super picky when it comes to shifter books. Especially with mate bonds. I have been let down by so many of them. Generally unless they have other paranormal beings I avoid them. Now, this being said this author has another series I adored, so naturally when she announced a new series I was all in. Even if it was shifters. I can say she definitely didnt let me down. The book had me hooked from the beginning. The story is complex, and so is the magic system. Which is so appreciated. There wasnt the bing, bang, boom and your my mate nonsense. No, trust me. There is A LOT going on, and it’s got layers upon layers. This is an adult romance, but it is not spicy. It has the slow burn, and the tension but it safe for younger readers if need be. I really like the characters, and I am eager to see where the next book goes if Im honest. I feel like we are just starting to see the deeper story thats going to span within the series, and I am so intrigued. Seriously who doesn’t love a plot within a book, on top of a plot that spans across a series too? Plus new MCs in each book? Yes Please!

💬 This Paranormal Romance is book 1 in The Lost Sovereign series. The romance in this book is a slow burn, with mate bonds. The book is an adult romance, but remains unspicy. Niko is taking over Jades company. It was supposed to be a quick task, until he actually meets Jade. She is beautiful, loyal, and smart. Everything fate would deem perfect, and she also belongs to his sworn enemy. Nikos secrets tell a truth if she would dare to take a risk, and believe. This is an extraordinary enjoyable book 1 in a new series. #paranormalromancebooks #paranormalromance #bookrecsoflemon8 #bookrecs📚 #bookloversoflemon8

... Read moreIn 'Shattered', readers are introduced to a richly woven narrative that goes beyond the typical paranormal romance tropes. The intricate plot unfolds layers of secrecy, magic abilities, and the deep connection between characters, specifically Niko and Jade, who navigate their complex relationship amidst threats and expectations. As Niko takes over Jade's company, their destinies intertwine, establishing a foundation for future conflicts and developments in the series. What sets this book apart is its careful construction of the magic system that supports the storyline. Unlike many shifter titles that can feel clichéd, Hawke provides a fresh perspective on mate bonds, emphasizing emotional depth and relationship dynamics rather than just physical attraction. This approach appeals to a broader audience, allowing younger readers to enjoy a captivating romance that retains wholesome themes. As the characters face external challenges, the slow burn of their romance creates a palpable tension that engages readers. Fans of detailed world-building will appreciate the author's ability to intricately weave action, suspense, and romance, promising a captivating series that encourages investment in its characters. Overall, 'Shattered' is set to be a promising start to 'The Lost Sovereigns' series, inviting readers to explore the intricacies of fate, loyalty, and love within a fantastical realm.
