BEWARE was the first book of Shanora’s that I have read, and I must say I was pleasantly surprised…I loved it! Don’t go into this story looking for a fairytale…if you do you’ll be disappointed. Beware is dark, suspenseful, mysterious, and smoldering H.O.T! 4.5 ACE is SCORCHING STARS!
“I need answers… he’s the only one that can provide them… I’ll work my way in… for my peace of mind. Then I’ll have him locked away.” ~London
“I have to get her to trust me… to get her close… I’ll get what I need, and she’ll be back on her way… I can convince anyone into anything. Especially a woman.” ~Ace
Beware is the story of London and Ace. London is just graduating college and her brother Jonah, who is the only family she has left, attends the ceremony to show his love and support for her. This is when she meets Donovan “Ace” Crow, he attends her graduation with Jonah because they have some “business” in town to handle. London feels an immediate attraction to Ace but she also feels an air of danger around him, and she feels she can’t trust him, but regardless she can’t help fantasizing about all the things Ace could do to her body. Unfortunately tragedy strikes, leaving London in Ace’s protection.
"Ace" makes it known that he is dangerous, domineering, cocky, wealthy, and he can get any woman to do anything he wants….and he knows it. London has something he wants, and he plans on using any means necessary to get her to disclose the information he needs. Only Ace didn’t know that London would awaken feelings in him he’d never felt….the attraction between the two is too intense to resist….can London really trust Ace? Will Ace give up his power, his empire for a chance at a life with London?
“Why does loving him have to be lethal? A risk?” ~ London
“I don’t want to get close, but the closer I get, the less I feel like I’m a monster or a threat. The more I feel… alive. Human.” ~Ace

I loved BEWARE! For being such a young author, Shanora’s writing is amazing…full of passion, emotion, and suspense. One of my top favorites of 2014! If you can handle the unexpected, think outside the box…add this one to your TBR list, you’ll love it!
