Veil of Shadows (Fae of Woodlands & Wild Book 2) Kindle Edition

4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars 762 ratings

Elowen’s fate now lies in the hands of her captor, and she must decide if she’ll fight him at every turn or accept that life as she knew it has irrevocably changed.

All my life I’ve been dutiful. Subservient. Accommodating. But I refuse to let that trend continue. Locked away by the notorious Dark Raider, I vow to fight for my freedom . . . no matter the stakes.

But the Dark Raider has a secret I never imagined. He bares his soul to me, and overnight everything changes.

My singular goal now aligns with my captor's, and we band together on a hunt throughout the kingdoms. Both of our fates hang in the balance, and when the Raider reveals his biggest secret of them all, my heart is suddenly on the line.

Yet our hunt proves far more deadly than either of us could have imagined. Now, it’s up to us to stop the malicious darkness weaving through the continent, and we must succeed. Because if we don’t, the kingdoms will fall in ruin and the love I’ve craved will be shattered before it’s begun.


Veil of Shadows is book two in Fae of Woodlands & Wild, a fae fantasy romance trilogy that takes place in Krista Street's Supernatural World. This series contains slow-burn spicy romance, epic worldbuilding, a female fae who's determined to wield her own fate, a ruthless Dark Raider who will stop at nothing to get what he wants, and a mysterious ploy circulating throughout the kingdoms.

Found myself hesitant to finish because I didn’t want this reading experience to end
This is the second book in the Fae of Woodlands and Wild series, a fae fantasy romance trilogy. This takes place in the author’s Supernatural World but it it not necessary to read any prior book in the world. There are some dark elements to this story, as well as some spice, so please read the trigger warnings.Tropes and themes include:✨ Captor/captive✨ One stag✨ Touch her and die✨ Fake dating✨ Slowburn✨ Trust and betrayal✨ Morally gray MMC✨ Mating bonds✨ Forehead pressesRating: 5/5 Stars 2/5 FlamesNicknames: Little Lorafin, My LoveThe Lovely: I’ve been absolutely feral for this second book because of how hard I fell for the characters in the last book and how the ending broke me. Broke me hard. And. . . I loved this book just as much. We see the MCs’ relationship change and grow as the FMC struggles with what he’s done.l I would have required a bit more groveling but the FMC is a better person than me. And, wow, I don’t think I realized in book one just how resilient the FMC is, but it comes out even more in book two. My heart hurts right along with her when she broke down.Also Lovely: I also enjoyed how the plot progressed, which follows up on the MMC needed her magic in book one. We also get to know the MMCs friends a bit better as they travel the kingdom. A story is spun to explain the FMC’s presence, which had me giggling like a school girl.Recommendation: I so enjoyed getting to dive back into this world and I found myself hesitant to finish because I didn’t want this reading experience to end. The ending isn’t a cliffhanger - more a setup for the third and final book in the series, which is coming mid-March. I’m so glad I don’t have to wait too long for the conclusion.

    For the middle book of a trilogy, this was amazing - answers were given, world building extended, new characters developed while established actors rounded out and the spice got spicy. If you love the fae, adventures & new story arcs, you will love this trilogy!

    Elowen and Jax! Ah! Been waiting to see how spicy things were going to get with them. I mean I saw it coming, but when they did I was like… 😮🫣😍

    This story picks right up where it left off and you find out why Jax needed Elowens lorafin skills. I loved reading about their new adventure to the games and trying to find Jax’s missing person. Cannot wait for the last book next month!

    Tropes:
    Slow burn
    Enemies to lovers
    Forced proximity
    Hero falls first
    Fated mates

    Spice: 🌶️🌶️

    Veil of Shadows by Krista Street is the second book in her series Fae of Woodlands & Wild which follows Elowen as she adjusts to her new life in Stonewild. If you have not read book one of this series, there may be minor spoilers to it in this review. Read at your own risk. Elowen may be free of her guardian now, but after she witnesses Jax and his friends without their masks she can no longer leave. While Jax doesn’t own her, in Elowen’s mind he might as well be her new guardian. The freedom she longed for in book one is now out of reach. Jax trusts her to keep their secret, but he cannot risk his friends’ lives or break the promise he made them. Since she is stuck with Jax, Elowen asks to go with him on his quest to find the male they kidnapped her to find. Together they make their way back to Faewood and the tournament that is about to take place.

    Elowen is understandably hurt and angry at the start of this book. Jax and his friends hid their identities from her, not even giving her their real names. As the Dark Raider’s captive, she was initially scared of them, but had grown to trust them. Now, she’s angry that her freedom has been stripped from her before she really got a chance to taste it. But Jax wants to keep his promise to free her magic even if there is no way to remove her collar. He makes her guardian loosen its hold as much as possible, freeing her magic. Elowen is amazed and frightened of her magic, unsure if she can control it, but Jax has faith that she can.

    The story follows Elowen and the Dark Raider’s crew back to where the story started. Jax’s brother, Bastian, is the male Elowen was kidnapped to find, and the semelees showed her that he was at the Matches. Going back is risky. Elowen was a favorite of the king, but she convinces Jax to take her with them. Together they find a dark magic controlling the half-breeds, and the race to find Bastian becomes life or death. Street continues to build a fantastic world with a full complement of characters. I loved getting to know Jax and his crew better through Elowen as well as learning more about the limits of her own magic. The romance ramps up in this one. It was a slow, tension filled build, but SO worth it.

    Overall, I really enjoyed Veil of Shadows. The plot slows down some in this one to build the characters and their relationships, but I personally didn’t mind that. I enjoyed this aspect. I’m looking forward to what’s next after the cliffhanger. If you are a fan of romantasy or fae, I highly recommend it.

    I thought this was a great 2nd book. The story arc continues where the first left off and the cliffhanger lead directly into what the next book's plot will be. Basically, I just read Onyx Storm and was thrilled to read something that makes sense and has good writing. After a book of disappointment I read this book and it was really good.

    I am loving this series. The characters are so well developed and I adore Elowen and Jax. There’s so much tension and angst between them and both the slow burn and spice is so well written. So much happened in book 2 and I was literally on the edge of my seat a few times. I can’t wait to see what happens next. This is another must read series.
