verdict

a human girl dropped into a school where she absolutely does not belong, paired with the one guy who can't seem to stand her, and surrounded by people who are a lot less human than they appear. fun, addictive, and incredibly easy to binge, this one feels like the perfect blend of paranormal academy chaos and spicy romance. just make sure you're emotionally prepared for that ending before you start.

vibe

this book wastes absolutely no time.
if you're looking for a slow burn paranormal romance where everybody politely ignores their attraction for 400 pages, this is not that. satanic shadows is fast-paced, chaotic, spicy, and completely committed to its premise from the very beginning.
she's thrown into a school full of non-humans who are literally being taught how to interact with humans. unfortunately for her, a lot of that curriculum involves sexual exploration. even more unfortunately, she's paired with the one person who seems to hate her existence.
you know where this is going.

spice

🌶🌶🌶🌶 — the spice starts early and never really takes its foot off the gas. if you're here for sexual tension, possessive energy, and paranormal spice, you're in the right place.

reader fit

read this if

you want paranormal romance with lots of tension, a heavy dose of spice, academy vibes, possessive villains, and a story that moves quickly. if "he hates her but saves her" is your thing, you'll probably fly through this.

skip this if

you're looking for intricate worldbuilding or a super dark paranormal romance. this book leans much more into the chemistry, drama, and entertainment factor.

content warnings

paranormal violence, explicit sexual content, bullying, power imbalances, and darker fantasy themes. always check the author's trigger warnings before reading.

standalone + hea

book one in the broken realms series. fair warning: this book ends on a cliffhanger, and book two isn't out yet. proceed at your own risk.
