From #1 Amazon Bestseller L.J. Shen comes a new, emotional standalone about first love, second chances, and overcoming breathtaking losses at a young age.
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.

LJ Shen has always had the ability to write an amazing complex story. Her characters will evoke such emotions from the reader. Just when you think you know who the character is Shen exposes another layer that you never knew was there. She has a way of making you open your eyes to the “villain” of the story. Bringing to light the complexities in their personality and the  baggage that makes them who they are. By the end you are deeply in love and willing to overlook a lot of their flaws just to be close to them.

Angry God is just another shining example of Shen’s amazing writing talent. Your heart aches for both Lenora and Vaughn. 

Will these two childhood nemesis ever reveal to each other what they think the other knows? It’s amazing how every person sees a situation in completely different light depending on the angle they are at. How one moment can forever change an individuals life. 

Angry God is a story that will grip you at the very depths of your heart and soul. I highly recommend this book. It will stay with you long after the last page has been turned.
