Description

MAGIC

It is bleeding into our world, bringing with it banshees, wraiths, fae from the twisting forests of Twilight. But Ellie’s problem is a very different kind of phenomenon...

SHADOW

It ought to be attached to her; instead it has a life of its own. And her dark mirror image is a wild thing, willfully seducing the very man Ellie hoped could help.

SCIENCE

Cam has devoted his career to exploring the boundaries between this world and the Hereafter. But nothing could prepare him for the mischief and mayhem of a soul split in two.

SURRENDER

Who will give in first:  the man struggling to unite two halves of one fascinating female; the shadow fighting for freedom to experience the thrill of every emotion; or the woman who is about to discover her own deepest desires?

Review

Even a casual survey of dreams reveals how dark and twisty the human psyche  can be, and in SHADOW TOUCH, Erin Kellison puts a new spin on the "went to school naked" nightmare.  Ellie was born without the ability to hide her impulses, her reactions, or even her naked body, as her animated shadow struts along next to her, baring their secrets to the world.

SHADOW TOUCH revealed just enough about Ellie and her shadow to make me eager to seek them out in future books, and also piqued my interest about where the Shadow series began.  This was my first experience with the series, and Kellison gives enough detail to orient and tantalize without bogging down the action.

It is this deft touch that makes SHADOW TOUCH a good read for both established fans and those of us who have been missing out.  By combining the introduction of new characters as well as glimpses of familiar favorites, Kellison has created a novella with a little something for everyone. The next book in the Shadow series is titled SHADOWMAN and will be published on September 6, 2011.
