Second teaser for Shadows of the Night below, written by the glorious @charlizekkelly

This is my life now, I'm so excited!!!

Goodreads and Preorder links below, give her some love, she deserves it 🥰

~~~

Azeil halted at the bottom of the stairs, one hand on the wooden railing as he turned ever-so-slowly back toward her. “They’re killers, Nyx.”

“I know what they are,” she spat, the searing pain in her chest making it impossible to focus.

“Are you going to stand there and defend them? They’re monsters"

“Monsters are made. Not born.”

Thrawn quotes ‘Ozymandias’ (…and it’s epic)…

"'I met a traveler from an antique land who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone stand in the desert... Near them, on the sand, half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown, and wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, tell that its sculptor well those passions read which yet survive...'"Thrawn paused, allowing the words to echo slightly in the large room. "'Stamped on these lifeless things, the hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed: and on the pedestal these words appear:'" and Thrawn's voice rose to a shout. "'"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"'"Immediately he returned to a more normal tone. "'Nothing beside remains. Round the decay of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare the lone and level sands stretch far away.'" Thrawn walked back to his chair, sitting down with not a sound, and turned it away from Taar. "Kings and empires rise and fall, colonel. Entropy consumes even the strongest man's efforts, both physical and political. One cannot hope to stop the hurricane, one can merely hope to weather it, to rebuild; and perhaps it will be something even better than what had come before."

—from that UnitySaga (StarTrek/StarWars crossover), done (thank heavens) before the mess of of the MouseEars “canon”/EU catastrophe…

🌙 Stepping into the "Shadows of the Night" and owning every single moment. This photoshoot was all about channeling that fierce energy, where elegance meets edge, and every glance tells a story. Swipe through and join me on this journey through the neon-soaked streets—where the city lights blend with mystery and style. From that sleek black robe that whispers sophistication to those bold neon heels that scream confidence, every piece is a statement. This shoot isn't just about the fashion—it's about the vibe. It’s about daring to be different, about walking down those streets like they belong to you, and about embracing the shadows that make the light shine even brighter. ✨ Whether you’re a night owl or a neon dreamer, let’s take this midnight stroll together. Because in the shadows, we find our strength. 🖤 #ShadowsOfTheNight #NighttimeVibes #NeonDreams #StreetStyle #FashionInTheCity #BoldAndBeautiful #EleganceWithAnEdge #PatBenatarVibes #FierceAndFlawless #OwnTheNight

❤IT'S FINALLY HERE!❤

Cover reveal for Shadows of the Night, a paranormal romance written by the brilliant @charlizekkelly , coming out October 31st (synopsis and preorder links below)

Cover designed by the amazingly talented @btheriella_art

~~~~~

"Nothing good ever came without sacrifice. Some of us just found clarity in the darkness of those shadows."

***

Nyx Monroe grew up with terrifying tales of golden-eyed beasts with nightmarish fangs and murderous tendencies but as time passed, she forgot about them, convinced they were just scary stories. When her father, Azeil Monroe, is hired to privately investigate the murders plaguing the coastal city of Celacali, it's a chance at a fresh start. 

However, Nyx discovers everything is not what it seems beneath the veneer of the popular tourist location, also known as the City of the Dead. Something dark resides there-death and carnage reincarnate. 

Plunged into the city's shadows, Nyx stumbles into the open arms of notorious Orion, Kotori, Niko, and Kade-the boardwalk is their blood-stained domain. 

They've been waiting for twenty-five years to exact their revenge for a debt long overdue, luring Nyx and her father back to where it all began. Whilst they distract Azeil with one murder case after the other, their focus shifts to Nyx. 

Soon, there's nowhere left for her to run-to hide-from the true beasts of legend, or from the darkness of her past.

“Best Shots” by #patbenetar. Was just reading about the recording history of one of my favorite songs on the compilation, “Shadows of the Night,” which was recorded and altered by a number of people prior to coming to Benatar. This album by Chris DeBurgh was one of the first tapes I actually bought - all to get Lady in Red, a slow dance staple and regular on the adult contemporary playlists of radio stations at the time. #dlbyron #helenschneider #rachelsweet #shadowsofthenight #80smusic #80s #music #cassettetapes #cassette #tapes #album #bestshots

I have many mixed opinions about you, I feel bad for thinking you’re evil sometimes.

I wanna forgive you, but I feel forced not to.

I wish we could be friends again, but all the things you’ve done make me feel afraid to.

I wish you could know how much empathy I have for you, but you’re probably drowned in guilt, which I feel forced to pretend you deserved it.

I know this seems stupid, but I feel like I’d cry after I’ve killed you, I don’t want to punch you to death in the heart that much.

I used to wish to burn you alive, but now, all I want is to see a better, changed person from you. I wish you would no longer do any evil, yet sometimes you do, and it hurts me.

Please, thou shalt have mercy upon my feelings, but if thou thinks I deserve death, 50/50 chance is you are the righteous in such painful situation.

Forgive me for such ungodly plan to kill you, to lock you up in a shed and burn you alive, in the middle of a forest while I look in an insane smile. I have changed too much from that psycho I thought I’d be forever, and I have looked back to our good moments, and now, I feel guilty.

I used to want to punch you to death in the heart, hide the body and live on happily. But the normal person does not have pride in wanting to kill someone, much like me.

Please, if you ever feel sad and wish to die, know that there is potential in you. There is potential within such brutal monster to be a better person.

Much like you, I am drowned in guilt and sadness, and the only thing keeping me sane is good memories and my husband, but you two shall take it however you want to, I’ll be here for you if you need some laugh.
