Review of Darkly Dark Carnival Book 1 Skewed by Natalie-Nicole Bates

One night forever changed the life of Shaun Collins.


Once a successful and respected coroner, Shaun encountered a demon who rendered him nothing more than a living corpse, doomed to live on forever and ever.


And then Shaun found Dark Carnival. A mysterious travelling curiosity show where all the performers have secrets. Assuming the persona of a clown, Shaun travels city to city, hating himself a bit more with each passing day.


Everything changes when he meets the most beautiful woman named Kyrie, who doesn’t see what others see.


But to love Kyrie is not only selfish, but dangerous as well.


Can Shaun find a way in his impossible world to keep the woman he loves, and return to a normal life once again, or will his desires destroy them both?


MY REVIEW:

DARKLY DARK CARNIVAL BOOK 1 SKEWED IS A WONDERFUL START TO A NEW SERIES.  I REALLY ENJOYED THIS BOOK.  IT IS A UNIQUE STORY FILLED WITH SO MANY INTERESTING CHARACTERS.  EACH CHARACTER HAS A STORY OF THEIR OWN AND HAVE DARK SECRETS.  I LOVE HOW THE AUTHOR CREATED THIS DARK SETTING IN A CARNIVAL.  IT IS A PERFECT SETTING FOR THE STORY AND THE CHARACTERS.  THEY ARE LIKE FAMILY AND LOOK OUT FOR ONE ANOTHER.

WE MEET SHAUN WHO WAS ATTACKED BY A DEMON.  THE DEMON CHANGED HIM FOR LIFE.  HE IS CURSED TO LIVE FOREVER AND EVER.  SHAUN HATES HIS APPEARANCE AND WHAT HE HAS BECOME.  HE NEVER EXPECTS TO FALL IN LOVE WITH KYRIE.  SHAUN KNOWS HE CAN NEVER HAVE A LIFE WITH KYRIE.  HE KNOWS WHAT HE IS AND DOESN'T THINK ANYONE CAN LOVE HIM OR IF HE EVEN DESERVES TO BE HAPPY.  KYRIE SEES SHAUN IN A DIFFERENT WAY.  SHE SEES THE REAL HIM.  WILL THEIR LOVE BE ENOUGH TO OVERCOME ALL OBSTACLES?  

DARKLY DARK CARNIVAL BOOK 1 SKEWED WAS SUCH A WONDERFUL READ.  I REALLY ENJOYED IT.  I WAS SO ENGROSSED IN THE STORY I COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN.  I  LOVE ALL THE CHARACTERS.  IT IS A DARK READ FILLED WITH ROMANCE, SUSPENSE AND HEARTACHE.  NATALIE-NICOLE BATES HAS WROTE ANOTHER WINNER.  SHE HAS AGAIN SHOW ME WHY I LOVE HER WRITING SO MUCH.  I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU READ THIS SERIES.  YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED ONE BIT.  5 STARS
