Aftershock

by Eva Marks

I’m stalking a man with dark, terrifying secrets, and I still can’t bring myself to fear him.

How can I, when he’s the doctor who saved my life?

“Not on my watch.”
That’s what Dr. Alaric Lockwood said when I told him I didn’t think I was going to make it.

He stayed true to his word. I’m alive because of him.
I should be grateful and move on like he did.
Impossible.

Years have passed since that night, and I still can’t get him out of my mind.
That’s why I’m back in town. Why I’m not going anywhere.
Why I don’t question my fixation on him, even when I catch him doing things he shouldn’t.

We’re meant to be.
Slowly but surely, he’s starting to see it too, growing as obsessed with me as I am with him.

The only problem is, he won’t open up about the dark secret I uncovered while stalking him.
If he thinks I need protecting from that side of him, he’s wrong. I’m not fragile. I won’t break.

But since he doesn’t know it yet, I’ll have to do something drastic to convince him…
And hope it doesn’t backfire on us.

Reviews

[Darlene I read WAY to many books]

These two met when Lilith was sent to the hospital, and Alaric treated her. He made sure she was taken care of at her age. And Lil went into foster care. I was glad the author made sure my baby got some good foster parents its rare to see a good side of that.
And came out with a sister and a obession for the man who saved her. Years later she had all the info she needs to stalk her man lol.

I love it she was so good she made sure he saw the "sane" parts of her and pretended she didn't care but secretly this girl was sneaking his boxers into her bag and following him 🤣🤣🥰
And when she found out his double side life she fell even harder.

Alaric that man was a stand up guy made sure if anyone hurt his he would make sure they regret it. His test subjects 😈😈😈 oh he made sure those people deserved what was coming to them. And I loved every second. He also thought his Lilith wouldn't want him when that secret was revealed lol. Oh was he surprised when his girl fell more in love.
Two crazy kids 🤣🤣🤣
I also love the bond they shared with the sister I love sibling bonds.

Wanted to love it, ended up just tolerating it.

The math was mathing on paper: stalker girl + vigilante trauma doctor = recipe for a top tier dark romance. So why did I feel so meh about it? I usually eat this trope up for breakfast, and burn through the pages but Alaric and Lilith just didn't keep me in a chokehold and I kept looking for every opportunity to put it down. Insta love struck again, and unfortunately, I remained completely immune.

[Kate]

I LOVED THIS.

Lillith comes into Alaric’s emergency room badly beaten and almost broken. He saves her and from that moment Lillith worships the ground he walks on. She finds herself in foster care but when she is an adult she finds and stalks the only man that has ever truly seen her.

Alaric has his own demons and punishes those that hurt others. His cover is a trauma doctor so he can avenge those that couldn’t protect themselves. When he sees a young woman at his hospital one day, he becomes obsessed with having her. Alaric knows he has seen her before and Lillith plans on doing everything to make Alaric hers.

These two were fire together. Absolutely perfect. They saw each other for who they truly were and bonded in such a beautiful way.

“You’re going to come for me, then you’re going to take my cock. My cum. The babies I fuck into you, you’ll take them too. There’s no me or you anymore. Only us.”

Don’t get me wrong this was filthy in the most Eva way but also had such an emotional sentiment to it. I love reading about two broken souls that find and understand each other on such a primal and passionate level. If you’ve read Eva in the past and like her filthy and emotionally damaging at times stories, you’ll love this one as well.

[Jetscarbie]

This started so good then took a hard turn into crazy town. It was okay enough that I finished it. I had a few laughs at these two psychopaths and their Insta/everything.

I did appreciate the FMC being as crazy as the MMC. She was the stalker that was stealing his underwear. He was the serial killer taking out the abusers and pedos.

No OP drama
MMC is not a manho
FMC was a V.
Spicy. I’d rate a 2 1/2 out of 5. They had a few kinks but nothing too wild.

[Han]

3.5⭐️

Age gap 35H and 22h
They met when she was 15 and he treats her at the hospital. So the story starts 7 years later I liked that she didn’t come looking for him fresh at 18
Virgin h saved herself for him
H didn’t seem like a man whore, no real history of past just that he’s never felt like this with anyone else.
No others after she starts stalking him and it seemed like he hadn’t been with anyone for a while before that.

𐙚‧₊ 𓂃 ✩ 0.5 | dnf at 27%.

i honestly couldn’t get past how cringy this was. especially the writing.

[Catarina Águas]

I loved this book so much. It had a cringy moment or two and he fell in love too fast but I don't care, it took me out of a reading slump and that is more than enough for me.
Lilith was a woman obsessed with her saviour. She became his stalker and everything she did it was with him on mind, he was gonna be hers no matter what.
Alaric was a vigilante that killed abusers that got away from the police. When he saw Lilith again for the first in 7 years, he didn't know who she was and he was drawn to her immediately. He wanted her for himself.
They both had darkness in themselves and they helped each other through everything they went through.
They love was all consuming but so full and rewarding. They would literally do anything for each other

[Ariday Books]

I loved that even though she was the obsessed one, every time he approached her to talk, she acted like she wanted absolutely nothing to do with him and wanted to stay as far away from him as possible 🤣 (according to his POV).

Thank you so much Eva Marks for the paperback ARC 🖤

Tropes:
• stalker romance (her)
• doctor x ex-patient
• age gap
• forced proximity
• found family

Lilith 🖤:
Her name says it all… a girl who grew up as a victim of domestic violence and, because of that, ended up in the hands of Dr. Alaric. From the night Alaric saved her life, Lilith became so obsessed with him that she dedicated herself to gathering every piece of information she could about him in order to make him hers 😳

Alaric 🩺:
He’s a doctor devoted to saving lives, but he also has a secret life as a serial killer who targets bad people (kind of like a vigilante). His entire life revolves around his patients and his secret hobby, until he notices the new girl working at the hospital café (Lilith), and suddenly he has a new obsession 🖤😳

Story 📝:
After almost losing her life, Lilith feels deeply grateful to the doctor who saved her, to the point of obsessing over him for years and stalking him from afar. Eventually, she realizes she’s tired of only watching him from a distance and comes up with a plan to finally make him hers. Starting with moving to the same city and working at the same hospital as him 🫣

Thoughts 💭:
If I thought By Any Means or Fixation was my favorite book by this author, I was completely wrong… this book is on another level 😮‍💨 Deep down, I truly feel like this book was made for me. I had been searching for a book where she was the obsessed one for so long, and I finally found it 😭 and then Eva sends it to me 🥹. I loved Lilith, her personality, and the fact that even though she was the obsessed one, every time Alaric talked to her she acted like she wanted nothing to do with him. Reading Alaric feeling insecure about whether she even wanted to talk to him was so satisfying 🤣

Español:

Me encanta que aunque ella fuera la obsesionada, cada que el se acercaba a ella para hablar ella parecía que no quería hablar con el y quería estar lo más lejos posible de él 🤣 (según él POV de él)
———
Thank you so much Eva Marks for the paperback (ARC)🖤

Tropes:
•stalker romance (ella)
•doctor x ex paciente
•age gap
•proximidad forzada
•found family

Lilith🖤:
Su nombre lo dice todo… una chica que creció siendo una víctima de violencia doméstica y debido a eso terminó en las manos del doctor Alaric. Desde esa noche que Alaric le salvó la vida, Lilith se obsesionó tanto con Alaric que se dedicó a conseguir toda la información posible de él para lograr que fuera suyo😳

Alaric🩺:
El es un doctor que se dedica a salvar vidas y a demás tiene una vida secreta como asesino serial de gente mala (tipo vigilante). Toda su vida son sus pacientes y su hobby secreto hasta que ve a la nueva chica que trabaja en la cafetería del hospital (Lilith) y de pronto tiene una nueva obsesión 🖤😳

Historia 📝:
Luego de casi perder la vida, Lilith está demasiado agradecida con el doctor que la salvó, a tal punto de obsesionarse por años con el y empezar a stalkearlo. Llega a un punto donde se da cuenta que está cansada de verlo de lejos e idea un plan para por fin hacerlo suyo. Empezando por mudarse a la misma cuidad y trabajar en el mismo lugar de trabajo que el 🫣

Pensamientos💭 :
Si antes pensaba que By Any Means o Fixation era mi libro favorito de la autora estaba completamente equivocada… Este libro está a otro nivel 😮‍💨 muy dentro de mí, siento que está hecho para mí, llevaba tiempo buscando un libro donde ella fuera la obsesionada y por fin lo conseguí 😭 y justo Eva me lo envía 🥹. Amé a Lilith me encantó su personalidad y el hecho de que a pesar de que ella fuera la obsesionada cada que Alaric de hablaba se hacía la que no quería tener que ver nada con el, fue satisfactorio leer a Alaric inseguro de que ella quisiera hablar con el 🤣.

Safety Warnings ⚠️:
•fmc y mmc obsesionados

DNF in chapter 2 because yes, the writing is that bad.

In about 3 pages of text he has 3 pairs of boxers in his locker, she takes one, and then he suddenly has none. Math?

Then he sees her for the first time and gets a boner and tips her $500 on a cup of black coffee.

That’s all I need to know.

[Zahida Sayed]

Every single time Eva writes a doctor, I eat that shit up. At this point, she could write the most unhinged, psycho, possessive doctor imaginable, and I'd still be first in line. She just knows exactly how to make me obsessed.

I absolutely devoured Aftershock. I picked it up hoping it'd get me out of my reading slump, and it did exactly that. Once I started, I genuinely couldn't put it down. Every chapter left me wanting more, and before I knew it, I'd finished the whole thing.

And can we talk about Lilith? Usually it's the MMC who's completely unhinged, but in this book Lilith matched Alaric's energy every step of the way. She was just as chaotic, just as unhinged, and I was SAT for it. Their dynamic was absolutely insane because neither of them was backing down. Instead of one chasing and one running, they were both equally obsessed, equally chaotic, and it made every interaction so much more entertaining.

The chemistry was addictive, the tension was off the charts, and the possessive, obsessive energy was exactly what I signed up for. Eva has such a talent for writing morally gray characters who somehow make you root for them despite all the red flags.

This book completely pulled me out of my reading slump and reminded me why I love binge-reading romances like this. If you love psycho, possessive doctors, unhinged couples who match each other's freak, and chemistry that'll have you flying through the pages, Aftershock is definitely one to add to your TBR.

[Eva]

Wanted darker but it was just sweet and spicy!

The stalker being her was chefs kiss and the way this man was down bad was iconic. I fear I did want him to stalk her to the same degree as her but alas.

Forgot how much I liked Eva’s writing!

[Canadianmombooks]

My favorite Eva book to date! Doctor x patient (previous patient) age gap, obsessive and morally grey MMC, serial unaliver and a stalker and obsessive FMC! This checked all the boxes and was a good spicy time!

[Britany | SouthernAsianReads]

Stalker x Serial Unaliver

I love a book where the girl is down bad for her man, but then he one-ups her. If you want a girl obsessed who gets her man, and not only is he obsessed, but he also unalives people on the side, look no further.

[Aoi0999]

[❁ lilyreadsromance ❁]

Well, another interesting story under my belt.

A vigilante doctor and his loyal stalker, whom he had saved years ago. It was unhinged and sweet at the same time.

[laura]

DNF. the author is really weird for this age gap (they first meet when she’s 15 and he’s 28) and the writing is HORRIBLE !!!

[Darkling]

Aftershock – Eva Mark’s

First of all, Eva is out here doing the lord’s work, because daaaaaaaaamn, this is undoubtedly the hottest thing I've read in a while, not just that but the story was one I wont forget. 🥹 Eva marks always hits it hard with the dark romance and this story doesn’t let up. It wont be for everyone and that’s OK. This book features child @buse, st#lking, doctor/patient, medical testing on bad bad people, vigilante behaviour and inevitably m#rder 🫠

Lilith, our female main character, has lived a life full of abuse at the hands of her ‘mother” who is an influential person in society. That is until her ‘mother’ puts Lilith in hospital and she meets a young Dr, Alaric Lockwood (lord give me strength). He not only heals this poor girl, but gives her the first sense of safety she has ever known... when her mother goes missing swiftly after Liliths hospital admission this leads to Lilith being taken in by the state. Where she is able to have some normal-ish teenage years, and create her own family in her chosen sister Hope. When they are both old enough to move out of state care, they move to New York. Where coincidentally, or not, Alaric works. Lilith and Alaric become obsessed with each other quickly but they don’t understand the depths of each other’s darkness. The darkness and secrets they both hold are incredibly different to the other, but they are both inevitable to end of up as more than a couple, but one... and damn. Once they learn each other’s secrets, it becomes apparent the lengths they would go to make sure they remain that way.
I ADORE Alaric, he’s possessive, obsessive and unhinged when it comes to Lilith and I love that about him. He would walk across hot coals, flay himself for her without a doubt if she asked. He would do anything for her and I have no doubts about that. Parts of his story with Lilith destroyed my soul and honestly the way they complete each other really makes you feel a “good for them” moment cause lets be real, it is good for them. 🥹🥹

Aftershock is released on July 15th, and it isn't one to be missed.. especially if you are a fan of Eva Marks other work such as Under The Bed... etc. Aftershock IS AVAILABLE TO PREORDER NOW VIA THE ZON.

3/5

First of all, I'm so thankful that Eva sent me this ARC, because I live and breathe her books. I read most, if not all of them, so it is safe to say that I love her writing style.

This book had a very interesting premise from the very beginning. I have to say, like all her other books, Eva knows how to write an amazing first chapter. It just hooked me from the very start and I loved it. I freaking loved seeing Alaric from Lilith's perspective as a 15 year old. I loved it even more when we found out that Alaric took his revenge on Lilith's mom for what she did. I cheered silently there.

Lilith as a FMC was very well written. I have no complaints about it. Honestly, it felt a little refreshing reading a book where the FMC is the stalker for a change. It was different, if I do say so myself. The obsession was immaculate and she was down bad for her doctor.

Alaric was perfect for Lilith. He was obsessive, possessive and loving but he never hurt her physically or emotionally. He cared for her mental health so much that he only praised her, never degraded her. He was a giant, murderous teddy bear.

Now, in the last 20% of the book, it went a little downhill for me. I expected more tension, more action. But it was slightly repetitive in their actions and in the end, I was not surprised by the epilogue.

The smut? Top tier. If you read Eva Marks, you just know there is going to be a breeding kink, letting aside that age gap is mostly the top trope she is going to write. I love it, really. Age gap has to be my favorite trope in a book.

All in all, this book was good. Fast paced and easy to read. If you want a break from heavily action packed stories, this is a good book to dive into.

[SandyClawss]

El libro empieza bien, pero al 40% se vuelve aburrido.
El desenlace también me pareció aburrido. No hay un factor sorpresa que te genere alguna emoción.
La protagonista, Lilith, pasa de ser una loca atrevida a convertirse en una sumisa de manual. Yo pensé que íbamos a tener más locura, más tensión, y hasta imaginé que la amiga (hermana del corazón) de Lilith iba a ser la villana. Creí que este libro iba a ofrecer algo más...
Y Alaric no estuvo mal, pero ¿era necesario que estuviera todo el tiempo diciendo que quería dejar embarazada a Lilith?
El spicy tampoco me convenció. Fueron escenas del montón, de las que leemos en muchos libros, sin nada que haga que después las recuerdes.
Respeto, de todas formas, a quienes disfrutaron este libro.

-------------------------------

The book starts off well, but around the 40% mark it becomes boring.
The ending felt boring too. There’s no real twist or surprise that makes you feel anything.
Lilith, the female protagonist, goes from being a bold, crazy woman to becoming a cliché submissive heroine. I thought we were going to get more chaos, more tension, and I even expected Lilith’s best friend (the sister of her heart) to turn out to be the villain. I really thought this book was going to offer something more...
Alaric wasn’t bad, but was it really necessary for him to keep talking about wanting to get Lilith pregnant the entire time?
The spicy scenes didn’t impress me either. They felt generic, like scenes you can find in countless other books, with nothing memorable about them.
I still respect those who enjoyed this book.

[Valeria Campos]

Eva Marks has quickly become one of my favorite dark romance authors, and Aftershock just proved why. This book completely consumed me from the first chapter.

The role reversal with a female stalker was such a refreshing twist. Lilith’s obsession with Alaric is intense, unsettling, and oddly endearing all at once. Watching her spend years quietly building her world around the man who unknowingly saved her life made for such an addictive read. I loved that, despite being completely obsessed with him, she constantly kept Alaric guessing. Seeing everything from his perspective as he questioned whether she even liked him had me smiling more than once.

Alaric is the perfect morally gray hero—a respected doctor by day with a much darker side that he keeps hidden from the world. As his secrets slowly unfold, the chemistry between him and Lilith only gets stronger. They truly feel like two beautifully broken souls who were always meant to find each other.

The pacing kept me hooked, the tension never let up, and the banter, obsession, and emotional moments balanced each other perfectly. If you love possessive characters, obsessive love, morally gray heroes, and unconventional romances, this one absolutely delivers.

Tropes I loved:

* Female stalker romance
* Doctor × ex-patient
* Age gap
* Forced proximity
* Found family
* Morally gray MMC
* Dual POV
* Vigilante themes

This is one of those books that reminded me exactly why I love dark romance. Eva Marks never misses.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[ReaderGirly❤️]

I seen a thread about this book and thought, stalker woman, murderous avenger...yes, yes, yes.

Unfortunately, it was a no, no no.

Lilith, I understood. She was saved from her mother's long-term abuse by this handsome doctor and grew an unhealthy attachment towards him and decided to stalk him until she could be with him. Did I think it was weird that she stole a pair of his boxer and sniffed them to orgasm...? Absolutely. However, her attachment towards him made sense for what he meant to her life and survival. However, Alaric was getting a hard-on from the very first time he saw Lillith and was already going home and masturbating to the thought of her after one encounter. I'm like, you're a 35-year-old man. Have you never seen a beautiful woman before? Like get it together. Never been a big fan of insta-love and his inability to control himself was kind of a turn off to me. There was no build-up at all. He saw her, was aroused, and the next minute he was spitting his cum in her mouth after a quickie in the supply closet. Everything was just happening super-duper fast. Like not even 100 pages in and he's already saying "you're mine" when he barely knew her. I just wish they had more meaningful interactions before jumping straight into a sexual relationship. There wasn't even any romance, just immediately telling Lillith he was going to bend her over and make her scream his name. And I really tried to just go off vibes; it's fiction, it doesn't have to be realistic. But insta-love has just never really been my thing

[Connie]

Eva Marks, the queen of dark romance, absolutely strikes again with Aftershock. This was an easy five-star read for me and one of those books that grabs hold of you early and refuses to let go. From the first page, I felt pulled into the intensity of it all—the obsession, the tension, the secrets, and the dangerous pull between two characters who feel inevitable in the most beautifully chaotic way. There’s something so addictive about Eva Marks’ writing that always keeps me fully locked in, and this book was no exception. She has this incredible way of making darkness feel seductive, emotional, and impossible to look away from.

What I loved most about Aftershock was how consuming the connection between these characters felt. Their obsession with each other was layered, unsettling, magnetic, and somehow deeply romantic all at once—which is exactly what I want from dark romance. Every interaction felt charged with tension, every secret added another crack beneath the surface, and I kept turning pages desperate to know what would happen next. I especially loved how morally gray and emotionally complicated everything felt without ever losing the heart of the story. Eva Marks delivered another haunting, spicy, unforgettable romance that completely wrecked me in the best possible way, and I already know this one is going to stay in my head for a while.

[Aaliyah]

This book, shocked me left and white. Like book is dark but not very dark.

And the female character she’s killing me. The girl said I’ve been obsessed with this man too long. She moved another state for him. Get the same job as him but at the cafeteria, if that wasn’t enough she stalked him. And found out things she was supposed to find out.

And this man, he didn’t have any other woman in his life he didn’t sleep around, that was tea. And the first time he met her he got obsessed. He said she’s mine. She ain’t going nowhere. And the way you were trying so hard to tell her that he wasn’t not a good person. I was like brother are we seeing the same thing cause the man is that good.

But it did pissed me off was when him found her in his basement and was reading his notebook. He did not let her explain or anything just straight knock her to sleep and I think he handicapped her to bed. And she did try to explain to him, but he didn’t even let her talk. Then when I saw his point of view, I was like huh I get it where he was coming from but still that’s was not oki. He was scared also afraid that she was gonna leave him. That she didn’t love me anymore that she found him disgusting. I was like that was far from the truth. I was like the girl was stalking you for a long time ago. She’s in love with you. But then he listened to her and saw that she did with a lot of him. And that she wasn’t gonna run away. And then we see that they are team partners that they do everything together. I was waiting for the pregnancy and will come at the end. I was like yes thank you. I wanna read that child’s book now, pls.

[Jaimee Turner]

What’s better than one unhinged, obsessed character you ask? Why not two!
The role reversal with a female stalker was so refreshing. Lilith’s obsession with Alaric, the doctor who saved her life 7 years ago when she was fifteen goes well beyond obsession and is somewhat intense, but also kind of endearing. Add in the fact that Alaric has no idea about the extent of her adoration for him is addictive.

Alaric is a well respected Trauma doctor by day who then lurks in the shadows by night, hunting the abusers of the innocent who end up in his hospital. He keeps this darker side from Lilith (or so he thinks).

Their chemistry is intense and addictive, the obsession with each other is matched perfectly and the spice slaps!

If you love possessive, obsessed characters who are unhinged in the best way and morally grey characters, this one is worth picking up.

[Spicy BookNook Reviews]

And yet again...miss Eva has done it again. And I am obsessed with this book. I legit cannot pick a favorite because the next is always so dang good. And this one is NO different. Both of these characters are incredible. Dr. Lockwood is dreamy, I mean if you love walking red flags like I do? Haha. He definitely has some skeletons in his closet. But when you have someone who creeps in the night, who has a wild hair just as much as he does...you never know what is going to unravel. I was on the edge of my seat every single chapter craving for more and what comes next. I lovedddd Lilith's personality so so much. She was fiesty, didn't take no bull from anyone...I mean when you grow up the way she does, it's totally understandable. But the way she loves? It's beautiful. And if you've ever read one of Eva's books, you know her epilogues are always chefs kiss! Gahhh!!! I loved loved loved this one so much!
