Review: Shadowed Legacy (Legacies #2) by Lora Leigh

[Eva Millien]

What the book has to say:

Book 2 in the Legacies series. The price Fates and Destiny demanded has been paid. The blood spilled in a time long forgotten by all but a few. Devlin, after a lifetime lost amid the shadows of his own mind, is tormented by confusing dreams of the woman he knew as wife. The face is the same, but this woman could never have been the harsh, deceitful witch he knew as Antea. But what his mind rejects, his body and soul cry out for with a hunger that threatens to crush him. A woman now called Chantel. Chantel Ducaine is determined to stop Jonar from achieving his aims, but first she must steal back the Earth Crystal rumored to be one of Earth's greatest powers. Caught in the act, betrayed by her father, she is captured by Jonar and beaten. A soulful cry to the warrior of her dreams and the aid of the Earth Crystal may be her only chance for survival. Now, the Mistress of the Earth Crystal is ready to reclaim her life, reclaim her love and join with her Shadow Warrior again to fight the growing evil that is Jonar. The time to fulfill the legacies has come... Publisher Note: This title was previously released in 2003, and has been revised and reedited.

What I have to say:

Devlin rescues the young woman whose been tormenting his dreams and making his soul cry out with hunger but Chantel Ducaine’s secrets may ones that he doesn’t want to uncover in this exciting paranormal fantasy romance.

Chantel knows the time has come to fulfill the legacies but when she’s finally reunited with her Shadow Warrior, he’s tormented by confusion and the belief that she is someone else and The reader can’t help but get caught up in this story as Chantel and Devilin slowly rebuild a relationship as they uncover truths and secrets long held. The steady to fast paced and smooth flowing plot keeps readers shivering in expectation with suspense, excitement and romance and these strong compelling characters captivate readers and capture their hearts from the very beginning as their attraction to each other has desires flaring out of control with frequent hot and steamy sex scenes but their relationship must struggle against the past and the present.

There is never a dull moment as Devlin and Chantel have to piece together memories of the past and stay one step ahead of Jonar who seeks to destroy them all. Excitement builds throughout the story as the danger escalates and betrayals cause emotional mayhem keeping readers on the edge of their seat. The well written scenes and details capture the imagination and bring the story to life as the well orchestrated suspense and events ensure that the reader can’t put the book down until they have read every last page.

This passionate and fascinating world is full of interesting and unique elements and intriguing and sexy immortal warriors that kept me enthralled from the very beginning and I can’t wait to find out what happens next.
