R Cupak was born and raised in the suburbs of a Bay Area city in California She now lives in a quiet town south of where she grew up with her husband and their Shih Tzu Harley and German shepherd Mac Saying she is obsessed with cars is an understatement Since her sixteenth birthday she s had at least thirty three vehicles Cupak is a self proclaimed wine and bourbon enthusiast She also loves a wide variety of music anything from classical EDM rock pop country and heavy metal to name a few When she s not at work or busy writing you can find her curled up with a good book or binge watching a random series while enjoying a glass of wine or bourbon neat. R Cupak is NOT a light fluffy romance It is raw shocking extremely dark and quite disturbing in parts The story explores subject matter that contains triggers so consider this a warning There IS traumatic upsetting graphic anxiety inducing content to this story which some people may find too overwhelming While I have read darker stories this still rates amongst some of the darker books I have read There are moments of deep emotional pain where my heart shattered from what I was reading there are scenes that are harrowing brutal violent barbaric intense terrifying and gruesome Then there were beautiful romantic heart melting and funny moments that gave me hope and lifted my spirits This story is definitely NOT for the feint of heart The author had me the whole way through the story I was devouring the words she had written even when they scenes were so unsettling that I felt I should look away from what I was reading she had me hook line and sinker right till the end WHAT DID I JUST READ NO WAY THAT DID NOT JUST HAPPEN No my mind still can t comprehend it I m not sure I can wrap my mind around it There were twists that had me sitting up and taking notice and THAT ending the one that had my jaw on the ground is certainly one I won t forget any time soon The author s passion for writing a thrilling riveting read her attention to detail her familiarity with the subject matter the heart and soul that went into writing this story is apparent throughout this book Ms Cupak s writing is fast paced descriptive and powerful her words have stayed with me long after finishing the story I will definitely be reading her next book s. R Cupak you went above and beyond Your writing was superb dark gut wrenching and mind blowing Jordan Hunter I swear those two have stolen a piece of my heart ripped it open and now it s slowly healing back to one I went in without reading the blurb and was not expecting my mind to be blown and my heart ripped in two This is by far your best book yet and I cross my fingers we get a Monte book Now let the book hangover begin 5 I breathe you breathe stars 9781519611956 This book truly gutted me and gave me the biggest book hangover I do have to warn you this book contains instances of rape and depression If these are triggers or hard no s for you then this story is NOT for you For everyone else I definitely recommend picking this bad boy up Jordan is living with her past Hunter wants to help her avenge her past Together they are all sorts of messed up but together they work Along with their friend Monte they work to create a future for themselves but life isn t perfect in fact life can suck Prepare yourself to enter the crazy that is T. I am seriously at a loss for words right now This book has so many different emotions running through me I am not sure how to explain it I thought the last book by this author broke me but this book takes a piece of your soul as you read it It is the most beautifully tragic book I have ever had the pleasure of reading and I can not recommend this book enough So do yourself a favor grab some wine chocolate a box or two of tissues a comforting blanket and get lost in this world of love loss betrayal revenge and edge of your seat suspense This is one that will stick with for a while after your done 9781519611956 WOW Just WOW So even though it says there isn t going to be a happily ever after I am always optimistic that there will be This time I should have believed the blurb there isn t a happily ever after but I can say that I am happy with the outcome of the ending of this book I could not put this book down but at the same time with every page that I turned my heart broke and swelled all at once This is not a story for the faint of heart if you are squeamish or have triggers of any kind then do not read this book However if you want to see what true love looks like in the most beautiful and twisted way then go and buy this book now This story is dark and twisted and will chip away at your heart but the love that Shadow has for Jordan knows no bounds and fictional or not it is an epic kind of love Everybody deserves that kind of love This story will stay with me for a long time to come for many reasons and I m ok with that You breathe I breathe. Received an ARC in exchange for an honest and unbiased review 9781519611956 Jordan s Shadow is not a paranormal romance It s a dark romance that will shatter your heart and leave you with a massive book hangover. JordanThis story isn t about love like lust or a happily ever after This story my story is about struggle my every thought She is the reason I wake up in the morning plotting scheming exacting a revenge she so desperately deserves But will she take my offer once she learns my true identity sees the darkness within me or will she hate me for lying to her all of these years leading her to lose herself to the drugs and alcohol that have kept her ghosts at bay Will she be my Precious Jordans Shadow4 1 2 out of 5 starsWOW There really aren t the right words to do this novel justice This is the first book I have read by this author but I promise it won t be the last The way this story was told was powerful heart warming and heart wrenching There were a few moments of pure joy and then a few of pure sobbing I wish I could have finished it all in one sitting because it was that good but I m glad I dragged it out a little just because I was able to really delve deeper into the story It s difficult to write this review without giving away significant parts of the story but in just a simple few words EVERYONE SHOULD READ THIS BOOK I enjoyed the mystery of the Shadow I felt everything for Jordan I wanted vengeance and hated the bad guys I loved Monte as well Let s just put it simply this was definitely a character driven story and I m so so glad I got to read it I voluntarily read a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review 4 1 2 out of 5 stars Full review to come soon but I devoured this book so quickly I would have finished sooner if I didn t have real life crap to deal with like sleeping and work It s a great story with fascinating characters and a story line that won t let you go 9781519611956 Bring your tissues when you start this book because it is utterly and beautifully gut wrenching By the end I was emotionally wrung out It contains some very sensitive subject matter that may be difficult for some to read This story was darkly suspenseful and kept me turning the pages at a furious rate to see what would happen next Be prepared to stay up all night to finish this one This is my first T. R Cupak book but it won t be my last I received a complimentary ARC of this story in order to read and provide a voluntary unbiased and honest review and it comes slamming back at her from a source she absolutely is not expecting It s a wild ride 9781519611956 If you have read any of Tesha s previous work please be prepared for her to take you on a totally different ride with this book As the blurb states this book is not about HEA s It s not roses unicorns butterflies and rainbows It s life of one woman who at one point had at all then one harrowing night changes her entire world and being. My opinions may be slightly biased because I did edit this book and as an editor I wouldn t allow my authors to put out a shit book But I also thoroughly enjoyed reading this story when it was all said and done What I loved about this book was Tesha s ability to push herself out the norms of her other books to write what s begging to be written It s not as dark as originally planned only because she wanted to ease her existing fans into a different genre but also still pull in new readers too But it still has the dark tendencies with the edge of suspense built in. The story line is about a young woman who is raped at the young age of 17 and how that one night changes and shapes her into the woman she becomes It s not pretty but it s real raw and ugly But everyone once in awhile there is a beacon of light in those dark places And Jordan s beacon of light is The Shadow Hunter Knight someone she never anticipated becoming than just another one of her outlets her addictions. Hunter Shadow and Jordan may not have the most conventional type of relationship but it works for them Crazy attracts crazy right They somehow are able to find the rhythm that works for them an imperfectly perfect balance. But the main reason for Hunter ever finding himself in Jordan s life to exact revenge for her for all the ways she had been wronged in her past Jordan may not think she can ever face her demons but with Hunter by her side there isn t anything that can stop these two I enjoyed reading this as Tesha put the story together seeing how everything falls into place Seeing how fucked up two individuals can be and that for some people there are no boundaries when you ve been to hell and returned with those scars It s an enjoyable suspense not just between Hunter and Jordan but how things play out in the very end for everyone. If Tesha is a new author to you I urge you to give this book a try if you can stomach a twisted romance with dark undertones If you ve read Tesha s previous books be prepared for something completely opposite of what she s given us before 9781519611956
