Review: BACK TO MR. BLACK... IN THE SHADOWS
Rating: 4 out of 5

Burned In Shadows:Whew!  The Jes & Draven pairing was a 2 story arc, even though this second book focuses on Bells, Royce & Ronin.  Now, even though I've said this is the second book in a 2 story arc, it can be read as a standalone story - but I really recommend reading "Enslaved In Shadows" first to enhance the experience for reading "Burned In Shadows".  Now, I did receive a copy of this in exchange for an unbiased review and the author herself told me it could be read as a standalone - but Snarky Mom recommends reading in order.Royce and Ronin are twins, looking for their mate.  They once thought they had found a mate but she died, so they are leery of claiming another.  However, they feel that Jes' friend, Bells, is that such shifter mate.  Bells doesn't think she can enter a mating, though, since she is about to become leader of her phoenix clan.  The story of the vampire blood is also continued / resolved (?) and we find out more about the mysterious Mr. Black.Be aware that there is m/f/m (no sibling) sexual situations, so if that is a hard limit for you, you may not enjoy this story.  Tigris Eden creates a fantastical world filled with shifters, vampires and urban dialogue to keep it all fun in this 280 page novel.  Next up will be Gabe & Xee in Redeemed in Shadows!
