Shadow

A Dark Asylum Bully Romance (The Boys of Chapel Crest, Book 6)

By: K.G. Reuss

Narrated by: Stella Ripley, Joe Arden, Edward Black, J. Tipstone, Michael Gallagher, Anthony Palmini, Sean Masters

Sometimes the wrong side could be the right side.

My father never loved me.

I was never good enough for him because I was different.

My differences made me vulnerable to his cruelty, and a mistake I made brought a deeper level of hell into my life.

When my curiosity got the better of me one night, it ended with me being forced out of the world I’d learned to exist in before I was thrust into another.

This new world is darker and more dangerous.

It’s filled with lies, deceit, and pain.

I have rules I live by now because the wicked walk these halls.

1) Never underestimate the level of a monster’s depravity.

2) Never take anything at face value.

3) Fight, always, even if you’re doing it from the shadows.

4) Remember everything…Because they will, and they will use it against you.

If I have to play the twisted games at Chapel Crest, I will.

For now.

They just need to understand, the darkness comes for us all, and I’m the king of it.

Shadow is book 4.5 in The Boys of Chapel Crest and should be listened to after Sinful. Please check author’s note for warnings.

Absolutely delicious!

the level of excitement & anxiety I got from the horsemen & the sugar daddy being involved, is killing me. I love this series. it has made me go through all the emotions. I've cried, laughed, gasped, been happy, sad, upset, mad, excited and definitely anxious. K.G. you have pulled me in completely. Your whole Chaos Universe, lives rent free in my head. but.... The Boys Of Chapel Crest .... these are MY people. I can't wait to see what's next. 🖤

Amazing!!

This was the 4th/5th book in the series (depending on whether you count Bells) I believe. I thought shadow was an interesting character and his relationship changes and character growth with the Watchers was fascinating to listen to!
I was not expecting Catie’s storyline! Her relationship with Dante was really cute as it went on. I loved how he’s trying to “tough love”with her yet is buying stuff on his own for his future niece/nephew.
I’m very excited for Asylum but at the same time scared for the story to end.

Shadow and Sirena Own Me

Absolutely — here’s a cleaner Audible-ready version with **no emojis**, smoother flow, and still high energy:
This audiobook had me completely feral.

Shadow’s story is dark, brutal, and somehow still deeply emotional. He has spent his entire life being treated like a tool—used, controlled, and forced to survive in the shadows—until Sirena Lawrence walks in and changes everything. The obsession, the loyalty, and the “I will destroy the world for you” devotion made this impossible to put down.

One of my favorite parts was the growth, especially Sirena’s. I loved watching her stop being treated like something fragile and instead be pushed to train, fight, and face her demons. Seeing her step fully into her power—and her darker side—was both satisfying and empowering.

Shadow also finally proves he is not a pushover, and I found myself genuinely cheering for him. The character development across the group dynamic was excellent as well, especially where Church is concerned. Without spoilers, there is a moment involving “that list” that completely stunned me. I never expected to see Dante Church in that light.

And Sully? I need it to be his turn next. I am ready.

The audiobook performance was absolutely elite. Stella Ripley, Edward Black, J. Tipstone, Joe Arden, Michael Gallagher, Anthony Palmini, and Sean Masters nailed the emotion, tension, spice, and psychological intensity of every scene. Hearing Sirena’s shift from sweet to monstrous in audio form was especially addictive and elevated the entire experience.

I am officially obsessed. Five stars with no notes. I need the next book immediately.

Loved it

I absolutely loved to listen to this after reading the book Anthony did so good as shadow and I can’t wait to read asylum.

Obsessed

I’m absolutely in love with The Boys of Chapel Crest. I can’t wait to read Asylums story.
