Synopsis:
Otherworldly
Creatures. Shocking Truths. Sizzling Passions.
Shiloh Trudell thought she was getting used to the strange events in Fallen Oaks, until the full moon brings another surge of supernatural threats to her coastal town. Ferocious wolves, deadly necromancers, and fallen angels have descended upon the neighborhood, so Shiloh needs to gain control of her magical abilities—and her impetuous heart—fast!
As if life wasn’t complicated enough, enter sexy, brooding Trent Donovan—local bad boy, and the type of guy your mother warned you about.
While Trent tries to help Shiloh prepare for a supernatural battle, their fiery spark intensifies into a slow burn. Romance with an unlimited potential allows them to experience both the thrill of love and the chill of fear for the object of their affection.
Then Shiloh discovers a dark family secret that threatens to shatter her world. The only thing that keeps her going is her thirst for revenge and the protective, rebellious boy she’s falling head over heels for.
When her classmates are attacked by a mysterious creature and her father is murdered, Shiloh vows vengeance. Except that’s not all Shiloh has to worry about. She’s also struggling not to become the very thing she fights: evil.
But with demon blood inside her—anything can happen…

My
Thoughts:
The
Cover: I really like the cover for Shattered Silence. A
blue-eyed lady, with her face covered below her nose, in front of a
broken glass. Silhouettes beyond of a wooded area, trees, possibly a
house in the trees. Dark and shadowy, building excitement for an
awesome story.
The
Plot: What a way to get back into Shiloh's story. Things ramp
up pretty quickly as Shiloh continues to learn about being a witch,
as she interns at Craven Manor and her and Trent spend more time
together. Shattered Silence had me holding my breath, hoping not to
disturb the angry spirits. I literally had goosebumps and was telling
Shiloh not to go up the stairs! The storyline to Shattered Silence
was very well written, moved along at a great pace and kept me
reading late into the night (and jumping at the things that go bump
in the night)
The
Characters: Sherry Soule creates great characters that you
can relate to. Being the odd girl in high school, the weird one,
different. I can certainly relate to Shiloh. Also, the uncertainty in
herself, her relationships, and the issues with her parents. I like
the mystery around Trent. You kinda know why he is such a badass, but
things seem to be changing about him as well. I would love to see
Ariana get more of a side kick role as Shiloh continues to develop
her powers and kick demons asses.
Is
It Worth Reading? Definitely! I really enjoy a good escape
from reality and once again Sherry has put together an awesome
adventure with a haunted house, a teenaged witch, and a badassed
hottie. What more could a girl want? I highly recommend the
Spellbound series to readers of YA Fantasy and Paranormal and thank
Sherry for sharing this amazing series with us. Shattered Silence
gets 5 out of 5 crossbows.
