Excerpt

Those damn leather gloves, I blame them.

I run my fingers through my hair to blow out at the wet strands that have stuck around my lips, and I grab my glass and gulp the remainder of my week old wine, before flopping back against the couch to collect my thoughts.

Seriously though, what the hell was that?

Pacer Fratelli is my client! A dangerous client. A client who I know is a murderer.

I can’t feel like this, but I do.

His smile flashes before my eyes again. Oh my god, would you just leave me the hell alone? I punch my fists down onto the chair, either side of me.

I strip down as I head to the shower, peeling off each layer like I’m shedding skin and discarding the clothes on the floor with an angry slap. My body is still abuzz with my post-assault, but at the same time, I am pissed off. These thoughts have no place in my mind. They can fuck right off.

A after a good talking to myself in the stream of the cold shower, I throw on my old university sweats, ready to see my night out in front of the coffee table … and all things Pacer Fratelli.

Dangerously hot, Pacer Fratelli.


Gah!







I absolutely loved this book. It was one hell of a story!!
I have read a lot of TJ Hamilton’s books and this one did not disappoint at all. Granted it is somewhat dark but there is humour, hotness and some really great characters with a very interesting storyline.
Chelsea Tanner is a barrister and is representing Pacer in a case against him. She uncovers some rather interesting things through getting to know Pacer as well as his family and delving into his past. Not all is what it seems though. She is incredibly determined.
Underneath we get a sense that Pacer, although a very bad boy, he truly is a man that goes after and gets what he wants. Pacer loves his family, has a things for gloves and oh my…what he can do with them…but you get to know why he uses them and in what way, when you read the book you will understand. Yes you will.  
Pacer was hard not to like….especially with the naughty thoughts in his head, lol. The way he treated Chelsea, his family ties and his charm made him an extremely lovable character. 
You could feel their attraction to each other coming through and when they are together, its sizzling!!
 I really liked Chelsea, the way she handled herself and her dedication to her job. I also loved her cousin Logan, who always told it like it is and had Chelsea’s back. I really enjoyed the way the story ended too.

This is a book you should put in your TBR list. Well done TJ, can’t wait to see what you have up your sleeve for us next!!

My name is Tatiana Pavlenko. I am the Russian Ballet’s Prima Ballerina. It’s been a tough journey to reach the pinnacle of my career, and it has come at a great cost … my soul. I have been known by many names throughout my young life, but no one knows the true identity of who I really am. War is about to break out around Russia, and it is the perfect opportunity for me to kill every man who has hurt me; who had his way with me. The evil that’s about to strike down on Russia’s powerful men isn’t from their neighbouring countries. It’s from me, the one they call Ten' smerti … Death’s Shadow.

Wow, this book is yet another sensational masterpiece from Aussie author TJ Hamilton. I loved and enjoyed reading this book very much. It tugged at my emotions and I found myself shedding tears quite a few times. I found it a book that was hard to put down.
Death’s Shadow is about Tatiana Pavlenka, she is Russia’s Prima ballerina. Her story is incredibly sad. What she went through from when she left Australia will have you shaking in anger at the Russian Bratva men that did awful things to her and other girls.  I know my hand was covering my mouth in shock a few times.
The story delves into what happened with her going from past to present, so the insight is there to show why she has become so angry. Any wonder really. There are some very graphic scenes.
Luka Charnikov, is the man that loves Tatiana and she loves him but due to circumstances they haven’t been able to be together. With the head of the Bratva dead, that position now falls on Luka. His mission becomes one to find out who has killed their leader among other things. He learns certain horrible truths about his so called Bratva family that he doesn’t like at all. I came to really love him, he is fighting for Tatiana to have a much better life.
I really loved Tatiana, Luka and Victor as characters. Alec and Boris too. I loved reading both POV’s from Tatiana and Luka, it worked incredibly well.
This book has incredible drama, suspense and some intense sexual scenes.  Everything in this book ties very well together and I look forward to reading more from TJ Hamilton.
Why is she called Death’s Shadow??? Well, you will have to read it and find out!! Add it to your TBR list or you will be missing out on a thrilling book.
