Publisher's summary

What if your imaginary friend was real?

Then again, Nox was never as imaginary as he was supposed to be, and while I thought of him as my friend, he watched over me because he knew we were meant to be more than that. He knew that we were fated.

Me? I had no freaking clue, but that made sense. The last time I saw him I was 12. He was a shadow monster who kept me safe. But, like all imaginary friends, he was just gone one day. And, as I grew up, I forgot all about Nox.

He never forgot about me.

Fourteen years later and he’s still as much a protector as he always was. When I’m stalked by an ex who just can’t accept that we’re over, Connor isn’t the only one who likes to hide in the shadows. Too bad for him that Nox is the shadows.

He’s changed, though. My old imaginary friend is wrapped in golden chains, his shape unlike any he ever showed me before. He’s big, and he’s fierce, and he saves me from Connor only to take me for himself.

And I...I’m kind of okay with that.

Stolen by the Shadows is the second book in the Sombra Demons series. It tells the story of Amy and Nox, the bonded couple introduced in Mated to the Monster.

Pleasantly surprised

I got the first book to this series kind of on a lark and I did not think I would be enjoying it so much. I like the overall story and the world building is fun to get into. I like that there's spice but it's not vulgar it's done tastefully so it doesn't overpower the story and it doesn't go needlessly on. it's a part of the story, not the point of the story. I already got the third one. this is just fun. it's just fun. highly recommend if you just need something to pass a little bit of time.

Demon fated mates story!

The following ratings are out of 5:
Romance: 💙💚💜
Steam: 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Story/Plot: 📕📗📙
World building: 🌏🌍🌎
Character development: 😟🙁☺️
Narration: 🎙🎙🎙🎙
Narration Type: Duet Narration

The Hero: Nox - he is a shadow demon from Sombra. Sombra has laws about the mortal realm. Demons are not allowed to go to the human world unless they are summoned through a portal by their fated mates.

The heroine: Amelia (a.k.a. Amy) - her aunt disappeared one day when she was a very young child. Ami was missing her aunt and stumbled upon a spell, reading the words aloud. Those words summoned a shadow demon to her side. He came to see her all the time, and to protect her. One day when she was twelve, he disappeared for good, and she thought that he was just a dream or an imaginary friend.

The Story: Amy is now grown, and she is hiding from her ex-boyfriend Connor whom she used to live with until he tried to force her to give up her virginity. He is now a stalker who won’t give up until he gets Amy back. She moved to Jersey and lives on the down low until a few nights before Halloween when she goes out to get some candy. On her way home, she sees Connor and he chases her. Meanwhile, Nox can feel that his mate is frightened and is able to come to the mortal realm to save her.

One strange thing about this one was the fact that Amy was so unwilling to give up her virginity to a man that she was in a relationship with for over a year, but when she meets up with Nox again after fourteen years, she is ready to give it up right away. Especially since she only knew him as a childhood friend and not a romantic partner. Other than that, the story was pretty good, and it is explained that Amy had been thinking about Nox for years and has a bit of a Hero worship going on and she had fantasies about him.

This audiobook was told in dual points of view via Duet narration. It was narrated by Hannah Hart and Edward Fox. Hannah Hart has a great voice, which is soft and feminine. She doesn’t sound like she is reading; she seems to be voice acting which I like. Edward Fox sounds a bit old for a romantic Hero. Even though Nox is a demon that has been living for thousands of years, I still like a younger sounding male narrator. Though I love the fact that this was done in duet narration.
