Perfect for fans of Adalyn Grace, this captivating sequel to the New York Times-bestselling Dream by the Shadows is filled with revenge, romance, and redemption.

Esmer Havenfall thought freeing Erebus from his five-hundred-year imprisonment would end her nightmare. Instead, it has only just begun. Now bound by fate and darkness, Esmer and Erebus are no longer just dreamers—they are Shadow Weavers, wielders of a power both divine and damning. And something is already clawing its way through the Dream Realm’s cracks. 
 
Raelion, the demon king lurking within Mithras, is poised to destroy the world. His corruptive curse spreads like a plague, twisting dreams into nightmares and turning humans into monsters. If Esmer and Erebus are to survive, they must achieve the impossible: forge an army from the broken and unravel ancient horrors before it’s too late. But when Esmer and Erebus are abruptly cast from the Dream Realm into a kingdom teetering on the edge of ruin, they quickly learn that something monstrous has already slipped through—and their love might be the first thing it devours.

From NOVL Nation

“I am absolutely obsessed with this book where dreaming is bad for you…  I’m such a sucker for dream worlds, especially when your enemies to lovers villain is made of shadows with gothic vibes.  I’ve been really missing good paranormal romances lately, and this is just what I needed this summer!”

–Briana, Briana’s Book Nook

“If you like stories with strong heroines, dark magic, and a bit of heart, this one hits the spot.”

– Ashley, @thepageladies

“What I loved about it:

-It was incredibly satisfying to see all the intricate plot pieces fall into place by the end. And despite a bit of a cliffhanger, it only left me eagerly awaiting Book 2!

-The masterfully executed slow-burn romance, unfolding beautifully through an engaging enemies-to-allies-to-lovers dynamic.”

–Nicole, @steepedbystories
