What an incredible mind Keri Lake has. I absolutely LOVE this book. Dark, haunting, romantic, sexy mysterious. Keri’s writing and storytelling is immaculate.
The pacing in this is Perfect. Good pacing is something that I really appreciate in a book and when there is a lot of world building that needs to be done and many facets to a story, I think some books can easily leave you feeling confused or things can drag and you’re just waiting for something to happen but with Nightshade every page from start to finish had me engaged.
Loved the characters, the plot is fantastic and how everything unfolded was just brilliant. I was hooked from the beginning and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it.

Farryn and Jericho’s love for each other knows no bounds🥰

Jericho 🥰🔥 How he loves her. How possessive he is. She is his and that’s the end of it, it’s not even up for discussion and I lived for it. He’s a man worth risking it all for.

PRAISE FOR NIGHTSHADE
I am editing this review after reading Nightshade for the third time this year. I decided to re-read it before Infernium, and holy infernal lands, it was just as spectacular as the first time. This book gives me legitimate chills -- I am sitting here dumbfounded as to how Keri Lake created such a masterpiece. 5 stars could never be enough.TatiannaPRAISE FOR NIGHTSHADE

Keri Lake's writing is always incredible, and this book is no exception. The world-building is intricate and extensive, though not overwhelming. Nightshade is a genius landscape that is both chilling and enchanting. It's a place where suffering is pervasive and obscure and lost souls are not even aware that they are lost. Experiencing it through Farryn's eyes had me on the edge of my seat and so invested in her journey. The plot is brilliant and checks all the boxes for me: angels/demons, paranormal romance, enemies to lovers, fated lovers, commentary on religion and morality, multiple timelines and POVs, a quest for the truth and an ancient prophecy, as well as flawless smut (I must say... I will never look at a bell tower the same way). I mean, come on.
“I have crossed the endless void of time and space, over the centuries I've waited, with a yearning to see your face once more. If you think that I could just let you go now, when fate has gifted me the impossible, then you've not yet met the depths of my obsession. It has no bounds where you're concerned, Farryn. I would fight all the evils of hell for you, but I do not possess the strength to set you free.”
Jericho is the definition of morally grey. It is so refreshing, so satisfying, to come across a male main character with a monstrous reputation that is not a paragon of virtue in disguise. He is powerful beyond measure and reports having a proclivity for darkness and destruction since childhood -- this becomes a fate which he knowingly seals in an act of vengeance. Banished to Nightshade by the Heavens, Jericho lives as a pariah among lost souls with no clear path to redemption, and no real incentive to find one. That is, until Farryn Ravenshaw ends up at his cathedral.
Jericho says it best: “a villain is quite capable of love. It’s only the matter of what he’s willing to sacrifice for that love which separates him from a good man”. Centuries later, when Farryn questions his acts of evil, he asks her, “are the morals of man so black and white?.. I have killed in ways that would seem merciless, and I have loved just as ruthlessly”. He is possessive, unwavering, confident, vindictive, wounded, and powerful beyond measure. Oh, he also has wings and an eye patch. I can't be the only one twisted enough to find him infatuating.
I could go on and on about these characters but I don't want to spoil anything. If you like dark paranormal and/or gothic romance, read this book! You will not be disappointed.
