A review by beautyandthebookworms
Shallow River by H.D. Carlton

dark emotional sad tense

4.0

HD Carlton really knows how to write dark romance.

This book was heartbreaking. The FMC River went through SO much and so much of it you could tell was real experience which makes it that much more painful to read. The way we got inside River’s head of how she thought of herself & how it was hard to leave or do certain things because of her deep trauma—just ugh. 

I know this book has had an impact on a lot of people & I’m so glad that HD Carlton shared it with the world. It definitely is a book you want to read start to finish. 

The audiobook was also very well done—the narrators did amazing & it’s a duet!
