In the Shadow of the Past – Excerpt read by the author, JE Leak
Did you know that February 2 is World Read Aloud Day? In the spirit of the day, I read an excerpt from my novel, In the Shadow of the Past (Shadow Series Book 1): A historical lesbian love story.

She fell in love with the wrong woman…now it's going to cost her dearly.

New York, 1943. Journalist Jenny Ryan is plagued by guilt. Plunged into a world of danger after the murder of her father, her burning need for justice drives her to confront a ruthless tycoon. But her plan goes awry when she falls in love with the criminal's attractive mistress.

OSS agent Kathryn Hammond seethes with frustration. Stuck in the United States on a dead-end mission, the undercover spy fears she will never pay her war debts. But when a feisty journalist enters the picture, his resentment turns into undeniable desire.

When she discovers her revenge could destroy the woman she loves, Jenny is faced with an impossible decision. But as Kathryn falls deeper and deeper in love with Jenny, letting go of their forbidden relationship might be her only chance at redemption.

Will their passion cost them their lives, or can the star-crossed lovers still create a happy ending?

In the Shadow of the Past is the fascinating first book in this lesbian historical romance series. If you like slow romances, secrets, and spies, you'll love this emotional love story.

Editorial review:
I'm pretty sure JE Leak has a time machine, because this story is so full of juicy, exquisite details that it really transported me back to the 1940s. It's a mystery, filled with espionage high-stakes, luscious romance with two gorgeous leading ladies who you know are headed for trouble. If you have a weakness (as I might have) for seamed stockings, blood red lipstick, sexy, sultry jazz singers, and fun, sassy heroines, then you will love this book.
