Light Shadows (The Dark Light Series Book 3) Kindle Edition
Twenty-one years ago, Gabriella's life was stolen from her before it even began.
Orphaned at birth and encompassed in a fortress of lies to protect her identity, she never truly understood her purpose on this earth. But now that she has ascended, embracing her destiny, the ghosts of her past have come back to haunt her.
Even with insurmountable power running through her veins, part of Gabriella is irreparably broken. And with old enemies working to destroy the tiny shred of normalcy she has left, she'll be forced to face the ugly truth about Dorian, the man she chose to love despite his darkness.
Everything she loved is a lie, and everyone she thought she knew is a stranger. And now that Gabriella is about to be thrust into the battle of her life, she discovers that she may be fighting for the wrong side.
*This is book 3 of The Dark Light Series, the highly anticipated conclusion to Gabriella and Dorian's beautifully tragic love story.

We pick up right where we left off in the Dark light, with Gabriella's long lost father, Alexander, showing up at Dorian's front door, seeing his daughter in little to nothing. I'm sure you can imagine what happened when he found out that his BFF was screwing his daughter. (Hint: things were broken.) it doesn't take us long at all to figure out that Gabriella has unpresidented power raging in her veins. But of course she has the utterly gorgeous and fabulous Nikolai to help her with that (Swoon). All too soon Gabriella is faced with heartache, and it doesn't stop. She is constantly thrown into pain and she has a hard time coping with it.Aside from Gabs and D having their issues with one another, Gabs has to figure out these new feelings for someone very close to her.
NOw what would Light Shadows be without the evil incarnates, Stavros, Aurora, and a few new faces. Stavros is still the same coniving jackass that he has always been, and Aurora is still the slut in killer heels. Stavros has a plan and it interfers with the peace that Gabriella and her friends are trying to bring back. In result of that, Dorian does the only thing he can do and gives himself over to darkness. Gabs is thrown into a whirlwind of pain and her father and Niko help her move forward. We see more of Niko and he is beautiful and in more pain than ever. Of course S.L. couldn't let us all down, she tossed in some great sex (as usual), love, pain, and friendship, and a little surprise later on that no one will expect. and although the ending is bittersweet, and your heart will shatter into a million little fissures, S.L. somehow manages to piece all of those littlke fissures together to make feel somewhat content. I would have to give the ENTIRE series fiive plus stars!!!! Amazing, amazing job S.L.!!!! Praise to the queen of Love.Sex.Magic. And everything Skotos!!
I have so many emotions going on and so mj uh love for each an every one of the characters... Well ALMOST everyone. There are times you will want to throw your kindle at the wall and scream and shout. Others that will leave you squeezing your thighs for Niko or Dorian. And others that'll make you laugh and cry. See what I mean by MANY emotions?!
I feel that Gabriella IS my favorite female character of any book I've read. She's so strong despite all the heartache in her life. She battles many demons in her life and doesn't back down.
Dorian and Niko... Ugh... Just ugh! I can't even explain the hotness in this series with them! Gabs is one lucky girl!
I don't want to say much because this story is worth reading more than me talking about my obsession with it. S.L Jennings is by far one of the most talented authors there are. She sucks you into her stories and you become the character. You feel their pain, their happiness, every single emotion that they're going through.
I have recommended this book countless times to my friends and family and I will keep doing it because this isn't a story you forget about. Thank you S.L Jennings for creating such a master piece!
The wait for this book really tested my patience. It's not that the wait bothered me. I will wait for a masterpiece. However I felt like the author was not interested in continuing the story as she was more focused on her other books. Which is good of course you don't want to read or even write something you aren't fully committed to.
What I liked:
As usual Dorian ruined me! He is one HOT supernatural man. He obviously has to not be human to be as perfect as he is. Gabs bad girl attitude is turned all the way up in Light Shadows. She is faced with the hardest decisions and often literally has to make them all on her own. Gabs has always been independent with Dorian lurking in the background. But she really had to lean and trust herself a lot in Light Shadows. It was nice to see how much she has grown over the series.
But I feel taking that into consideration the author looked at Light Shadows as finishing things up. As I said I am emotionally obsessed with these characters and their story. I feel like book1 the original story line was so amazing that this could be the next Twilight ! Yes I know that is like blasphemy to say especially being a true Twihard. But I mean it.
Light Shadows for me was just ok. But I am not happy with the way things ended or unfolded. I feel like too much pain unnecessary pain happened. Like are people being killed off just to wrap things up? Thats not right. I know a whole bunch of readers also love these characters as much as myself. I hope one day maybe someone will write a fan fiction version that will not only continue the story.
Would I recommend this book
If you are truly a fan of this series you will automatically feel like you have to read this book. If you are new to this series and haven't even read the first book. I would honestly tell you to only read the first two books. I do not feel like you or well I can say I for that matter feel anymore peace or closure with the way things ended in Light Shadows.

The conclusion to a really great series. The Skotos Brothers, the girl they both love and protect. BUT Its not a Love Triangle as the Heroine only has one true love.
He is is other half, her soul mate, and together they complete each other.
We start this book, immediately where the 2nd book finished; on the evening of her 21st Birthday, when she has to choose which direction she is going to take.
I'm not a paranormal reader generally, but this is one of a handful of paranormal series that once you start you just have to complete the series.
I think I picked the wrong time to read this book, the week before Christmas! I was not able to give it the commitment it deserved, don't get me wrong, I struggled to put it down, but real life demanded my time more.
This was a fab read, full of twists and turns, heart stopping moments, major Awe moments and some kick-ass moments.
We see Gabriella grow into who she is, as well as learn more about the first heart stopping moment of when Alexander came back into her life. This was one of a few books that grabbed you straight back into the story line.
I loved Gab and Dorian, they were a force to be reckoned with, although that's not to say they both didn't have obstacles to hurdle.
Nico, was the best ever friend to have in your corner, right there saying and doing the things just in the right moment of time.
He was as sexy as hell, but also a very loyal and courageous person, even if he was fighting some serious sad demons of his own. Gabs brought out something in him, as did he with her, and if Dorian was not in the picture these two would have made a great fearsome team.
Poor Gabs, had to let go of the people she really loved, her parent and close friends, they were being ripped away at an alarming speed. You really brought out Gab's strength, she was having a tough time, but she dealt with the hardships in such a way, that it made us the reader want to stand shoulder to shoulder with her.
I hated when Starros reversed Dorian's feelings, really didn't like it then; and Aurora, such a pretty name for a venomous creature, she truely got her comeuppance!
Even though Gab's was heart broken, at her lowest, she really came into her own. Morgan the greatest girlfriend to have on your side, and then learning her true potential, glad it looks like she gets her HEA.
Lars, was an exciting addition as was Denny, made good fun reading in such a heavy book. They all came through in the end.
I think this would be a fantastic read, if the series is read together, although it would be one hell of an emotional ride!! more ups and downs than the biggest roller coaster.
The sexy scenes, Phewie were sizzling, had me fanning myself a time or two!
The final chapters and epilogue! WOW - talk about curveball - S L Jennings this really was a fantastic series, I'm glad to have stumbled onto it when I did.
Loved it and it thoroughly deserves 5 Hot Badass stars.
I'll leave the review spoiler free, because there is so much in this book you need to experience for yourself! At the beginning of this book I'll admit I thought I could see where the story was going.. Ohh how wrong I was! Still at 90% I wasn't sure how the story was going to end!
As with the other books I loved this book, although I cried (quite a bit) with this last book!
That's the best part about Jennings, she sucks you into that world where you feel and experience everything the characters do!
Well done on the final book of this series, it was worth the wait and I can't wait for your next adventure :)
