About this listen

Adrift in a sky shadowed by war,

We seek, we ache,

Searching for the woman who fled us.

We shattered her heart, but she unfurled her feathers,

Our sweetheart, our little dove,

Escaping our talons on pure white wings.

One of us soars over battlements,

Haunted by past mistakes,

Vowing never to repeat them.

The other storms through walls of stone and hatred,

Eager to destroy the shackles of his past,

Determined to shackle her to him instead. Forever.

Loyalties are torn.

Friendships are tested.

Among the chaos, one claim stands irrefutably:

We will get her back.

She will be ours.

Come home to us, white Raven.

Shadows so Cruel is a full-length dark fantasy romance novel, and book two in the Court of Ravens duet. The two-part story features two morally gray raven shifters, a young woman at the mercy of their shadows, and a HEA. This world contains dark elements, violence, and themes some may find disturbing. Listeners can find more detailed information at LivZander.com. What this book doesn't contain is a hero—because villains do it better. And two do it better than one…

I thought this was better than the 1st book. More adventure than finding your mates!

Better

This second book was a little slower paced than the first, I'm not going to lie, but it doesn't take from the overall perfection of this duo! Dark romance through and through, not for the faint of heart! Delicious! The writing skills are also a golden point! Remarkable!

Liv has quickly become one of my favourite writers

I absolutely love these books, but I have a hard time with the female narrator here, she sounds constipated and it's really annoying.

Beautiful

This book… it triggered all sort of feelings, good and bad. Made me hate it, love it, and hate it some more. Made me cry, rage, gave me butterflies and kept me on my toes with the action. It’s a great read and listen, the narrators did good, although i did increase speed a bit, otherwise felt too slow. Do check the trigger warnings though, it’s a must.

Ugh, so bad and yet so good

This book series was the best thing I’ve ever read! The story, the spice! I loved every second! I already can’t wait to read again. Highly recommend! ❤️

What an incredible read!
