Natalie grew up being tortured, emotionally and physically, by the very people who were supposed to love her - her parents. When she was 16, she went to live with her best friend, but she still lives with the scars. Now 32, Natalie has decided to find her father and end him before he can come back for her again. What Natalie doesn't know is her father is already back and determined to complete the complex ritual he began when she was born. When even supernaturals are scared of what her father can do, how does Natalie stand a chance against him - especially when she has no idea there is another world beyond her own...?`The Darkness of Shadows' is a unique urban fantasy novel with a very normal main character in Natalie. She's physically and psychologically scarred, but she's a lot stronger than she knows. I was quickly drawn into Natalie's world. As Natalie discovered the hidden world her parents belonged to, so does the reader. There's not a lot of mythology to remember as you read, which I think is good, but plenty of magical action. I loved Natalie's sarcastic wit, determination, and undying loyalty to her family of the heart. With the surprising ending, I can't wait to see where the author takes Natalie next! Full of mystery, magic, and action, `The Darkness of Shadows' will captivate your senses!
