   REVIEWS FOR LOVE IN THE SHADOWS 


  • Love in the Shadows is filled with love, betrayal, past traumas, forgotten secrets, hidden agendas, ulterior motives and acceptance. Journey of different women who have been a victim of domestic abuse and a man with his concealed identity teams up and gives birth to a fantastic story of retaliation.
  • Beautiful scenic views, amazingly developed plots, and a well-painted picture—all are the words that best describe the book.  Steve Bassett has successfully managed to confine an engaging story with all the necessary elements that will keep the reader on the edge of their seats—a captivating read.


  • The writing is gorgeous, and the drama builds up on every page, thanks to the author’s excellent dialogue and gift for humor. – Reader’s Favorite, 5-Star review


  • Love In the Shadows is a gripping tale of power, corruption, and the quest for justice and revenge…. an excellent read for fans of historical fiction. – Reader’s Favorite, 5-Star review


  • Readers will be guided through the smokey dark back rooms of bars and taverns, the bright lights of society, and the sleazy halls and offices of a metropolitan judicial system… And if you are a fan of old black-and-white detective gangster films of the 1940s you need to add Steve Bassett’s “Love in the Shadows” to your reading list. - Reader Views, 4-star review
