The Manipulator and The Shadow
I've finally read this one! I've been wanting to read this one, and finally I've had a chance to pick this one. I found this book at Bookstagram, and it's been a popular book. It's my first time reading a dark romance book, I think, and I've been so excited to read this one. I like the prologue part of the book, which I think gives me a chilling feeling. I like the main character here, which is Adeline Reilly, and she's an author. One day, she has a book signing event, and while she's signing her books, she sees a man staring at her from afar.Â

I think Chapter 1 of the book already hooked me up. It keeps me going to read, and I think it's a fast-paced book, which I like even more. I've finished reading this book last week, and I'm busy making a review. This book is a rollercoaster of emotions, and it keeps me reading. Well, some chapters are long, but the story is nice. Overall, I like the whole book, and I'm going to give it 4 stars.ââââ

this was a 9/10 yes it could have been a 10 but I feel like there could have been a little more lust but over I loved it sm
Approaching Haunting Adeline by H.D. Carlton, I braced myself for disappointment, fully aware of its controversial themes and expecting it not to be my cup of tea. However, much to my surprise, I found myself thoroughly captivated by the story and its characters. Despite my reservations, the book managed to win me over with its compelling narrative and intricate character dynamics.
One element I could have done without was the gun sex scene near the beginning. It felt unnecessarily provocative and bordered on excessive for my tastes, marking the only moment in the book that I found jarring. Yet, this was a minor blip in an otherwise enthralling experience.
The characters in Haunting Adeline are crafted with a depth and authenticity that truly stand out. The dynamic that forms between the main characters is both effortless and powerful, driven by a well-constructed dialogue and palpable chemistry. Itâs this strong character interaction that forms the backbone of the story, making their evolving relationships both believable and deeply engaging.
Overall, Haunting Adeline surprised me in the best possible way. Itâs a testament to H.D. Carltonâs skill as a storyteller that she could take a theme I was ready to dislike and turn it into a narrative that I not only enjoyed but loved. For those willing to venture beyond a bit of initial discomfort, this book offers a richly woven tale that is both provocative and rewarding.
