About this listen

As the bus approaches my stop on the Lower East Side, I raise the hood of my black sweatshirt. Anonymity is key in my neighborhood - particularly as a lone female walking at night.

All I want is to leave my crime-ridden shadow of a home in New York City. I've done everything I can to keep my head down and focus on my studies. College is my only goal; love has never been on the map...That is, until my sister brings me to an underground fight, where I meet a gorgeous and mysterious man: Vincent.

He is the ghost in my shadows, showing up to feed me pieces of his upper-crust life, then evaporating into darkness until his next visit. I'm falling hard and fast. How can I trust him amidst the depth of his secrets?

Vincent may be even more dangerous than the dark world I'm trying to escape.

Contains mature themes.

I just couldn't put it down, I needed to know how things would turn out, and it ends on a cliffhanger ☺🤦😩
Still it was a good story. It's dark (it starts with an almost grape that she escape last minute), check trigger warnings.
Eve is an innocent , 18 years old, virgin bookworm. She meets Vincent a rich fighter full of secrets. He is enchanted by her and she is in love with him. They have an interesting and secretive "friendship" with heavy petting only.
The poor girl has an abusive mother and becomes target of a local gang...luckily she has some people on her corner and we are her grow and become more self-assured.
I definitely will read the rest of the series, I need to know if this Star crossed lovers will find their way to each other.
Free on KU and, separately on audible plus catalogue.
Great narration.

it's ok the overall story is overdone but I listened to it all the way through it is strangely addictive I wanted to find out the ending but it's part of a series maybe it'll get better as it goes on but doubt I'll bother after this.

It's alright kinda meh but somehow addictive
