Shadows and Obsessions Duet #2
Knuckles Deep
Raven is a 27-year-old stunner who falls head over high heels into an erotic day and night with the woman of her dreams. And her extensive research — or stalking as some would call it — comes in handy when she decides to risk everything and dance with the metaphorical devil. It's a dangerous line, but she's up for the fun and games.
She arrives before dawn, all dolled up for an exclusive Valentine's Day high fetish shoot with wealthy celebrity, Keys Thorne.
Keys is a jaded A-List Photographer, known equally for her personal life sex escapades as she is for her controversial, sought-after imagery.
When the women collide, immediate physical and sexual tension leads to hours of hedonism. And orga*ms.
Each raunchy page flicks by at a rate, so you should read this spicy short tale with one hand free. If you know what I mean.
This book is for ages 18+ ONLY.
It involves adult themes not suitable for minors.

***Watch the triggers before reading***
I couldn’t imagine this series getting much better but OMG!
It’s so much sexier and so much darker. I really appreciated Hazy gets her revenge! It was an awesome few chapters. This is a most read series if you love dark romance and have no triggers!
Ivy Graves writing style is so fast pasted and detailed, I loved every moment of it. Im excited to read more from Ivy!

I really enjoyed reading this!! I don’t do spoilers. But it is definitely one of my favorites I’ve read. Definitely worth the read!!!!

This book is definitely dark and goes into graphic details of what’s happening, if you like books like that then this one is for you! I was totally hooked!

What a great conclusion 🖤
What a way to end an amazing duet!!
Firstly.. check trigger warnings!!
This is the second book in the Shadows and Obsessions duet. I didn't think I could be more obsessed than I was with the first one.. I was wrong!!
Knuckles Deep starts not too far from where Bones Deep ended. Hazy and Banks are still navigating around their unconventional relationship. We start to see so much growth from Hazy in this one and I loved it!! I'm always a cheerleader for our leading lady, Hazy. She has really grown on me. The strength she has (even when she doubts it) after living the life she has is inspiring to read about.
Midway through this my heart was ripped out 😭. I don't like leaving spoilers but will just say holy moly! I balled for Hazy and Banks. They deal with so much here.
Ivy really brought the heat to this book 🥵🥵. Just when you think you've read all the smexyness you can, you get even more 🔥🔥.
My heart was so full for Hazy when she got her closure 🖤. Is it weird that my heart melts everytime Hazy mentions her squishmellows?! 😅
“I choose you, Hazy Vale. I don’t want anyone else. I want you and all your darkness and moodiness, your creepy vibes and little toes. I want all your blo0d and scars. I want every inch of you, because you are my queen. I am so f*cking in love with you. It’s truly mental.”
If that doesn't make you melt into a puddle, then you aren’t reading the right books 😉.
I'm sad to see Banks and Hazys story end but so grateful I was there for it!!
This is a dark dark romance with all the triggers. Dirty, delicious and disturbing, in all the best ways. So much spice with a gripping story line. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a dark and dirty tale with all the feels!!
The writing was amazing once again. She sucked me into this world and I can't wait for whatever else is to come from author Ivy Graves 🖤.

What a ride! Epic final book in this amazing duet. I couldn’t put it down, it got better and better. I will certainly be taking a note of Ivy as she will no doubt become a chart topping author, one to watch. Pick this book up if you love Dark books, alpha males and hotness. BUT take note of the trigger warnings.
Thanks to Ivy for giving me an Arc of this book, so sad to see it end.

This book went straight into it. Trigger warnings: don't ignore them!
So much of Hazy's childhood trauma is worked through in this book. Banks truly is her saviour, but they have a lot of unpacking and exploring to do whilst they work through their unique and "forced" relationship.
Hazy really does come into her own and take ownership whilst handing control over. She is such a lovable character that one can't help but cheer her on from the sidelines. I'm so glad to have now read both books from Ivy's Shadows and Obsessions Duet.
There are many triggers in this truly dark romance with so much spice 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ but if appetisingly dark and delicious, with a side order of delightful deviance is on your menu, you won't be disappointed.

Another great ride with Hazy and Banks. 4.5/5 stars
I wanted her to come into her own and become the queen of this depraved underworld, but it was more subtle than that, which I think I came to appreciate more.
This book showed Hazy in her step backwards moment. I understand that with the mental illness issues that Hazy suffers from, she might not have been able to handle what she faced, but I do feel like it was overdone a bit and that's the only reason this is 4.5 instead of five stars. She is smart, and even her internal monolog stated she could see he had been through some things, but she completely spiraled. However, I do understand that Banks not telling her anything because he is trying to protect her causes those issues to continue way past what I would have liked. This is what it comes down to, I am not a fan of miscommunication, especially due to "protection." It always does the opposite, especially when Banks sees what is doing to her.
However, I do like how it ended. It was the realest ending you could have in this situation, again something I fully appreciate in this book because endings with these type of issues and triggers can be so unrealistic. They are not making promises that can't be kept. They are trying to make it one day at a time for the one you love. I loved this book. I had been asking for a more realistic ending, yes HEA but real and I finally got it.
I'm patiently waiting for my X and Zane book and a prequel for Swallow. I NEED THESE!!!

What a dark but HEA read this was.
WOW! I thought the first book was intense, but this book – Way, way more intense. This book takes place right after the first book in this duet. You cannot hope to read and understand this book without first reading the first one. But to be clear, if you are going to read this, they author has provided the trigger warning. It is important that you do read them because they are pretty darn accurate in this story.
They say you need to really, really hit rock bottom before you begin to heal. It seemed in book one, that Hazy had hit rock bottom with her eating disorder and was healing under the close and careful watch of Banks. But that was not the case. All it takes is one event to send Hazy spiraling down even further. And this time she takes Banks with her. The question becomes can they overcome a rock bottom that will destroy them? Can Hazy and Banks rise from the ashes? Such an emotional gut-wrenching story while at the same time a VERY dark story. Having said that, the author did an amazing job writing it.

Not sure where to begin. Yes I read it, parts of me wish I hadn't, but then if a book can be thought provoking and actually make you feel uncomfortable isn't that meant to be good?
Banks has always been unethical, none more so in his incentive ways to cure badly broken Hazy. As a victim of childhood sexual abuse Hazy's life has been blighted by many psychological disorders that have ruined her physically and mentally. Banks won't give up on her until he can give her the ultimate catharsis.
This book is Hazy's impassioned and often hysterical journey to that catharsis. It is extremely raw, beyond graphic and worryingly real. It continues the headfirst dive into mental illness from book one without a life jacket or rubber ring in sight. It is as disturbing a read as it is alluring. I felt drained just reading it. God knows how the author felt after writing it!
Hazy and Bone's share a crazy fictional world but there seems to be alot of truths among the pages. Just make sure you read every trigger warning the author offers. And take them seriously!

A rollercoaster of emotions, spice, revenge and healing wrapped up in an epic finale!!
Ivy sunk her claws deep with this epic finale! I shamelessly devoured it in one sitting 🖤🖤.***Please be mindful and read TWs before diving in***
Hazy and Banks story nearly broke me then healed me in this. Ivy filled this with the gritty reality of setbacks in emotional and physical healing along with the strength, devotion and love that can shine even in the darkest of moments.
I adore how Banks didn’t give up on Hazy, even in the darkest of moments and how Hazy got him to see the mistakes he made. These two were truly made for each other…even if their coming together was due to his stalking her in the beginning.
I love how Ivy didn’t shy away from the truly emotional journey of healing Hazy had to go through. This queen has wrote a duet with characters that have found a forever place in my heart with their bumpy journey to happiness. It’s a rollercoaster of emotions, spice, revenge and healing…and I would ride it all over again.

I absolutely loved the first book, the perfect amount of darkness,filth and kinks made it a heavenly orgasmic read for me, but the second book, though beautiful made me shed quite a few tears.
I love a book that can give out strong emotional punches and add darkness to it ,with a psycho MC who loves hard and deep and I have got a masterpiece of epic proportion, what kinda peeved me out was the fact that the author focused 90% on Hazy but almost completely sidelined Banks recovery and mental health,which he deserved after all he went through and kept going through. My heart literally went berserk for this strong man and I literally sobbed and shredded more tears for Banks(especially when he cried in this book).
Man really deserved all the commendations and honours for not only healing Hazy but also keeping himself sane and utterly strong.

I devoured this as fast as I can. Really love it.
Knuckles Deep didn't feel as heavy or dark as Bones Deep was for me. I mean I cried a lot but that's just me and my inability to handle emotions properly.
Hazy finally got her revenge and I LOVE IT. It doesn't do her trauma much justice but she can move on. Which she did. I'm so proud of her for pushing through. She manipulated her trauma into making her stronger.
Plot: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I was scared of that plot twist for a hot minute. Thought we has a Romeo and Juliet on our hands.
Spice: 🌶🌶🌶🌶
THAT CEREMONY SCENE WAS EVERYTHING!!! I have a request. Can someone draw Banks and Hazy for please and I would really like to see what his schlong looks like.

I read books 1 and 2 straight after each other.
I really loved the relationship between Banks and Hazy. I'm a sucker for dark romance.
But the whole story really didn't appeal to me that much. Too little was said about Banks' business. I thought that whole pieces were also skipped.
I became very annoyed that Banks was so obsessed and in love, yet didn't have the decency to keep Hazy informed about everything (including his slaves).
The spicy scenes were very well written. The torture scenes were extensive, TOO extensive.
I loved that they healed together and that there was an HEA.

First off - WOW. This was one heck of an intense and compelling read that keeps you hooked from start to finish. The story is filled with suspense and the chemistry between the main characters is off the charts. What keeps me from giving it a perfect score is my desire for a deeper dive into the characters' backgrounds and motivations. I wanted to connect with them on a more profound level. However, despite this, the book is undeniably engaging and perfect for fans of dark romance with a touch of mystery. I eagerly await Ivy Graves' future works, hoping to see even more character development.

This is the second book in a duet and builds on the previous story. It is dark - plese check TW before reading.
Hazy and Banks are settling into their releationship when Banks has to go overseas for a job. While there, he is taken and held for weeks, enduring all manner of hardships.
Upon his return, he is dismayed to find that Hazy has reverted to her previous unhealthly mindset and is declining rapidly. Will he be able to reach her in time?
This book is intense and dark, but beautifully written.

I didn’t think this book could get any better from the first one, but I was sorely mistaken. This book is absolutely one of my favorite leads of this year. I absolutely love the author I would highly recommend this to all of my dark Gurleys that love wrote play that love, the kinky aspect of romance, and I just am so honored that I was able to read this book and be a part of this journey. I absolutely love it I highly recommend if I could give this book 50 stars I would unfortunately, Amazon won’t let me but absolutely obsessed. Cannot wait to get my physical copy.

Read the TWs very carefully lol - this book is a lot more than the first in the duet! I had to sleep before I sat down to write this review because my brain needed to process.
The plot of this was somewhat expected to me, with the impending trip Banks had to take. But it took a lot of turns along the way I was NOT expecting.
We see growth in Banks and Hazy and their relationship so I loved that. And we get June & Xan a lot more!

These characters and this story are very well written. I just loved it and didn't want to put it down. Hot and kinky and full of what feels like life like drama. Intense and so fulfilling to read. I read book 1 and 2 back to back. Hazy and Banks will definitely stay with me for a long time to come. Highly recommend and will be reading again!

4.8 stars but Goodreads wont let me!
Not for the faint of heart but oh so good! Exciting, heartbreaking, sad and satisfying (in more ways than one 😜) Ivy Graves writes Hazy beautifully, with so much care and attention to detail. This second installment of the Shadows and Obsessions Duet, illustrates the terrific highs and terrible lows of love and healing; and the depths of how far some will go for it. Will definitely be reading the rest of this authors catalogue.

Please be sure to read the TWs.
This was book 2 of Shadows and Obsessions Duet, and it picked up shortly after where book 1 ended. I may have enjoyed this one more than the first.
This was darker and spicier. We got to see Hazy and Banks overcome a few very hard obstacles. We got to see them heal as a couple. And we got to see Hazy heal in a big way at the end. It was a roller coaster that I loved with all the ups and downs and twists and turns. I laughed, was shocked, was sad, scared.

Wow
Wow is all I can say what an emotional roller coaster I was on this book kept me on the edge of my seat. Needing to know what happened next and not being able to put it down!!!! Going to warn you now once you start this book you will not want to stop until it is finished because it is heart pounding. What's going to happen next? Oh my God that did not just happen. Oh yes that did just happen. You're going to absolutely love it and not want to put it down!!!!

this book made me fall in love with reading all over again !
I absolutely loved reading this duet , the way the characters were written were amazing and so delicately crafted to perfection
I have never read any book like it and to be quite honest I don’t think any would come close to
This is definitely up there as one of the best I’ve ever read I would love to read more from this author

What Hazy and Banks went through in this book had my emotions all over the place. The person that betrayed Banks in this book got what they should have, I did not like them in the first book either. I enjoyed reading this book and seeing where Hazy and Banks' story ended. I would read this book again and I also recommend it for dark romance lovers.
June 5, 2023
Just like the first book is a very dark book just not quite as dark as the first. It has its moments that I can see where someone could get triggered if they have had issues in their past. There were a few times where I had issues, trying not to gag, but got through. It is a really good book.
I received this book as an ARC from BookSirens, for my honest opinion.

I was invested with Bones Deep and couldn’t wait to start this . There’s emotions galore as Hazy works through her childhood trauma a whole load of spice .Banks and his wanting to own Hazy body and soul they still had a lot of things against them but they work through everything and come out the other side. As in Bones Deep there’s a lot of triggers so check them before heading in.
October 11, 2023
I thought Bones Deep was good but this one… omg was even better! Be warned about the triggers and take them seriously though! Ivy, girl, you've outdone yourself again! You have such a talent the way youre able to make us feel everything the Mc and mmc are going through. These two books captivated me and tore me apart at the same time. Well done.

Please pay attention to the trigger warnings! Once again I'm at a loss of how to describe this book! Ivy has messes with me with these 2 books but I'm the best of ways. Hazy and Banks truly are perfect for each other. He stays with her through the rough and raw healing. I'm sad there's only 2 books in this series.

This book was dark! Read the trigger warnings first before reading. This book was fantastic. It was a really intense read, and I loved it. Fantastic writing. This duo of books has had me feeling all kinds of emotions.
