{Release Blitz & Book Review}: ANGRY GOD by L.J. Shen

“Buckle up and enjoy the ride, because you're not coming out the same way you went in. A top 2020 read hands down.” --Helena Hunting, New York Times bestselling author

Angry God, an all-new emotional standalone about first love, second chances, and overcoming breathtaking losses at a young age from USA Today bestselling author L.J. Shen, is available now!

Vaughn Spencer.

They call him an angry god.

To me, he is nothing but a heartless prince.

His parents rule this town, its police, every citizen and boutique on Main Street.

All I own is a nice, juicy grudge against him for that time he almost killed me.

Between hooking up with a different girl every weekend, breaking hearts, noses and rules, Vaughn also finds the time to bully little ole’ me.

I fight back, tooth and nail, never expecting him to chase me across the ocean after we graduate high school.

But here he is, living with me in a dark, looming castle on the outskirts of London.

A fellow intern. A prodigal sculptor. A bloody genius.

They say this place is haunted, and it is.

Carlisle Castle hides two of our most awful secrets.

Vaughn thinks he can kill the ghosts of his past, but what he doesn’t know? It’s my heart he’s slaying.

Angry God is a stand-alone, DARK High School Romance. It deals with sensitive subjects some may find triggering.

Stoic Tutankhamun. Heartless prince. Empty-chested mummy.

OR in this case Vaughn Spencer 

I was wired in messy-ass knots. Made out of metal cords instead of veins. An empty black box instead of a heart. A laser-focused vision to detect weaknesses instead of pupils. 

He was angry at the world, wanted to raze it to the ground, turn everything to ashes.

He has lava of vengeance boiling and running in his veins, his soul perforated and the lava leaked out and burned everybody in his proximity

He's a punishing personality, lives for an agenda, his goal to hunt and kill. But his target...?

Lenora Astalis walks into his life at crucial juncture and each encounter turns his life. His heart goes through a personality transplant and unbeknownst to him, she humanizes him. 

He HATES that

Lenora has a spine of steel and mouth of a brat. Not the one to lie down and roll over, she wears army boots and isn't afraid to toe kick in the balls of her opponents. This girl is on fire!!!

One thing I knew about men like Vaughn Spencer—they either broke you or you broke them. There was no middle ground. But I wasn’t going to be the one picking up the pieces when we were done with each other. 

Then comes the hard part. The secrets that tumble out SLAY YOU DEAD!!

They're degrading, immoral and inhuman. I was stunned speechless and my heart tore in two! 

Leigh does a solid job of surprising you with a Baseball thwack of a twist and the whole perspective shifts askew. Rights and wrongs get entangled, relationships turn on their heads, and amidst all this tornado, lonely hearts become one.

"Only difference was, my tragedy was silent and embarrassing, and hers—loud and publicly acknowledged." 

The story packs a powerful punch, actually several. It's hard hitting, hard feeling, hard to digest at some points and hiding behind it is a lot of heart, poignancy, sadness and misery.

Brash front and pained heart are smoke and mirrors. Tough shell hides scarred souls and that's what makes it all worthwhile

4 stars for Silver & Gold
