<p><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;">&quot;A titillating tale, </span><i style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;">Love In The Shadows</i><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;"> is a story that certainly won't disappoint. Caught up in </span><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;">a web of intrigue and mystery, we're immersed in Quintin's tumultuous life from the get-go. It's refreshing to see the camaraderie that exists between all of the characters as they try to co-exist in such a chaotic world. I definitely look forward to more of Dylan's work.&quot;</span><br style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;" /><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;">Lissette E.

The tone of the story fit the spy genre perfectly, and I could picture the lonely American in London very well. The country-hop over to Belgium was a lovely addition...I hope there will be more in this series.&quot;</span><br style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;" /><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;">Solange, </span><i style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;">The Smut Book Club</i></p>
