Praise for Danielle L Jensen's previous work:-

Heart-pounding romance and intense action wrapped in a spellbinding world. I was hooked from the first page! - Elise Kova, USA Today bestselling author of A Deal with the Elf King

Richly-woven, evocative, and absolutely impossible to put down - I was hooked from the first lines! Dark Shores has everything I look for in a fantasy novel: fresh, unique settings, a cast of complex and diverse characters, and an unflinching boldness with the nuanced world-building. I loved every word - Sarah J. Maas

The book grabs readers from the beginning with its stellar world-building and multidimensional characters - Kirkus Reviews

Stunning world-building, a vivid cast of secondary characters, and a steamy slow-burn romance between two exceedingly competent and compelling heroes. Dark Shores is not one to miss - Booklist
