The only permanent thing in my life is the ink I put on my clients.
I drift from city to city, in and out of beds, from one tattoo shop to the next.
Every time I start to put down roots, I rip them up.
Until New Orleans.
Until her.
She’s everything I’m not.
Full of fire and life. An innocent where I’m a sinner.
I want to consume her. Protect her. Keep her.
But first, I have to escape from beneath these shadows.

5By Ma 317Once again Megan March delivers the most amazing book. Old Characters that deliver the sizzle and suspense New love that sizzles. You will be not be able to put down once you startAnother fantastic read
5By ewoynANDfaramirI love how relatable Eden is, even though she comes from a different kind of family. I also enjoyed how she discovers herself in New Orleans with familiar characters. Did I mention that this series is a standalone?Amazing
5By NikkiBooELove this book! Keeps you interested from beginning to end. Almost impossible to set down!Not the 5 stars I expected from all the reviews. Were they paid or what?!
3By BreesyReader80I love me a good smutty romance, but I'm picky. Most romances are all the same same same and it gets boring and redundant. After reading the reviews of this one, I was hopeful it would be great but ultimately I was let down. It was just another of the same. I liked the relationships developed between the friends in this book (frankly I liked all the friends more than I liked Eden herself), there were a few good plot twists, and some good elements to the story, but I quickly grew annoyed with Eden's internal dialogue and was disappointed that the story lost its originality about 1/3 of the way through. I was overall bored with the sameness and I'm putting this one into the growing pile of dime-a-dozen romances. If you like the typical story of the naive innocent girl trying to find herself who isn't smart enough to put two and two together yet gets swept away by a hot muscled man, then you'll love this book. If you want more and better, then you'll be disappointed.Meghan March
5By nsanders1967Great series. Love the running characters.Beneath these shadows
5By BigMommaG6Another well done book, could not put it down a must readMobsters daughter!
5By billi.bearEden and Bishop... There are tons of things that I could say about this book that would be great and make you want to read this book, but I just cant seem to put them into words that would do these characters justice. When I read this blurb, it didn't give me much to go off of, so I was a little worried- I shouldn't have been! This is one amazingly written book that tells an amazing story about the lives of two different people who come together in a time of distress to seek comfort from the other (yes, that type of comfort ;-) but also the friendship kind too). If you are looking for a book that has love, friendship, lies and deceit, betrayal, a quarky old woman, hot sexy times- then this is the book for you to read! You will love and you don't even need to read the first five books; you should, but you don't need to... Now, GO READ!Awesome ❤️
5By Day728I love the Beneath Series but Bishop and Eden WOW! Couldn't put it down! 😍Awesome Read
5By Sraber70I have only recently found Meghan March books and she has very quickly become one of my favorite authors!!! Beneath These Shadows is a book that will keep your attention from the very first word till the very last! And you'll be wishing for the nickname "Cupcake"!!! Love love love this book!!!!!New Fan
3By Deanna PinkLadyThis is my first book by the author and I was pleasantly surprised. I loved that the story was set in New Orleans and was intrigued by the background of Bishop and Eden. There was a nice slow burn surrounding the characters which drove the story nicely. Bishop is a tattoo artist and manages Voodoo Ink. He has secrets and has never wanted to settle with anyone. Eden is temporarily relocated in New Orleans. She has secrets and should lay low but she's in New Orleans during Mardi Gras and she wants to live a little. So these two meet and have a connection. They are total opposites- Bishop is inked and broody and Eden is sweet and naive- but it works for them. But with secret, they eventually come out and usually chaos follows. I loved that this story also included family and friends that have a connection with Bishop. They are there to help with these two and it was a part of the story that created a family component that I adore in stories. It definitely makes me want to read the stories prior to this book. I found the story flowed well, I liked the beginning and loved when Eden and Bishop finally got together and then the ending turned a little wild and crazy. The story is told in his and her POV which is always an added bonus to get into the heads of both characters. Overall, I liked the story. I will definitely read more Meghan March in the future.Loved it!!!
5By MegM9275 Stars Beneath These Shadows by Meghan March is the sixth book in the Beneath Series. It is a standalone novel but I really suggest reading the others in the series because they were fantastic! This series just keeps getting better and better, and Meghan March continues to grow as a writer. Bishop and Eden’s story is filled with pain, heartache, loss, and most importantly love. Eden is the daughter of a mobster who is making her leave New York temporarily. With having been kept sheltered, she wants to really live and enjoy her time away. Choosing New Orleans as her destination, she wasn't expecting the craziness of Mardi Gras and of meeting a sexy tattoo artist who keeps saving her. The instant attraction she feels and the way he protects her, throws her off balance. She knows he wants her but he refuses to give in. Bishop is a ladies man which is also problem...so will Eden be able to tempt him into changing his mind? Bishop has been on his own for a long time. Never staying in one place too long, he goes from city to city never laying down any type of roots. Meeting Eden has put him on edge. He wants her but doesn't. His will power is slowly weakening when both his and Eden’s past collides in a way that could destroy them. Will they be able to move forward? Or will their pasts ruin any future they might've had? You'll have to read it to find out!!! WOW!!! I loved this book. It truly blew me away. Meghan March has an incredible imagination that not only draws you into her fictional world but makes you crave more. The characters are multidimensional and you can't help but fall in love with them. Bishop and Eden both stole my heart and I cannot wait to see what's next for this author!Cupcake!
5By Wisco ReadsIt was gooooood to be back in NOLA! 6th standalone in this series. It's without a doubt my favorite series to date and I always squee a little when I find out there's more. I've wanted a Bishop book since he was first introduced in Beneath These Chains. He intrigued me further in Beneath These Scars when he was described as "It’s the newer guy. Bishop. He’s a sexy beast of a man. That man bun. Seriously hot." I have a not-so-secret love for everything man bun, so I knew I needed Bishop's story from early on. And of course, Meghan doesn't disappoint. These two characters were stubborn from the start. One needing to spread their wings, and one trying to make sure the other is safe. So you can imagine the power struggle. They butted heads around every corner (literally, every corner on the streets of New Orleans.) But let me tell you, when they give into their urges, sparks flew. As always, it's the perfect amount of sexy as sin and on the edge of your seat. Another great story from this author!Sexy with a side of danger!
5By Ladydi232Beneath These Shadows is one of those books that pulls you right into the story. I haven't read all of the other books in this series and I didn't feel like I missed out on anything, but if the rest of the series is anything like this one, I'm definitely going back and reading them all! I absolutely loved Eden and I adored how protective Bishop was of her right from the start and their chemistry was off the charts hot. "...he wouldn’t be content in this life until he made me as happy as I’d made him. That the only thing he wanted was to watch me fly, so long as he could soar beside me. His words had given me hope like nothing else possibly could." There was a great storyline with some adventure and danger in the amazing setting of New Orleans's French quarter. And of course the sexy, bearded tattoo artist with a man bun heated up my kindle in a good way!FIVE CUPCAKE STARS
5By CarolN27Who doesn't love a tatted up, bearded, man bun sporting giant with a soft spot for a damsel in distress? Meghan March's writing is outstanding as she transports you in the heart of New Orleans. You are put right in the middle of secrets, seduction and the allure of the French Quarter. Eden is a casualty of circumstance. She wants to break free from rules and experience life on her own. She is brave, independent and secretive. When she runs into Bishop, sparks fly and undeniable chemistry ignite. Bishop is pure alpha male with his commanding ways. With an innate need to protect that even surprises him, these two are pulled towards one another. In true Megan March fashion this book has it all. She has a way with words that burn up the pages so you better read fast!Take me Back
5By MarthaStewCan I just live in this series? Seriously, going back to New Orleans with these characters was just what I needed. Every time I pick up a new book in the Beneath series, I'm transported back to New Orleans and makes me want to visit the city. Eden is a sassy, independent, yet naive girl who grew up a little different than most people. She is out to seek adventure and freedom for however long she has it and she is going to enjoy it. Her naivete puts her in the straight path of Bishop. Sparks fly so grab a fan it gets freakin HOT with these two. Bishop is a tattooed alpha with a past he's trying to escape. Eden is the game changer, he might finally want to put some roots down for. He wants to protect her, even if it's from herself sometimes. The struggle between the two is great to watch, both stubborn in their own way. The secrets that loom in the shadows will either destroy them or bring them together. They are both guilty of keeping things from one another. This book will hook you from the first page and won't let you go until the end. But don't worry you will enjoy every minute of it you won't want it to end. I could not put it down. This is the 6th book in the series, it's a standalone but I would recommend reading in order since we do see some old friends. Which by the way I LOVED!!❤️
5By ʝυѕт ωαит α ℓσ¢к❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️I love this series so much, and this book is just as good. I love how all the guys got together to help out this time, it literally made my heart soar. p.s.I NEED MORE OF HENNESEY!!!Loved It!!!
4By twilk30Eden must leave her life that she has known since when she was young because of who her father is. Eden decides that she is going to head down to New Orleans to reinvent herself. Bishop meets Eden when he sees her on the street looking a little lost. Bishop couldn't believe that he is helping Eden because it is so unlike him. Eden and Bishop keep bumping into each other and Bishop can't stop wanting to be there to help her out. Eden and Bishop are both hiding something from their past and once it comes to light will they fight for their love. I loved Eden and Bishop!! Eden was a little timid and hid in her shell but soon when she starts to hang out with Bishop and his friends she slowly starts to open up more. Bishop and Eden are totally two different people but the chemistry is there from the very beginning. They both have secrets that could totally end their relationship or make their relationship stronger. I loved this book and I can't wait to read more!!
