Here's S Rodman's "Shadow Lord." It's the third novel in the Shadowmen series.
["I have a crush on my shadow.
Ok, he's not actually my shadow, he's a shadow man from the Shadow Realm.
But he follows me around like he's attached to me. Wherever I turn he's there, watching me from a shadowy corner with those fathomless amber eyes.
He's silent, looming, brooding and terrifying.
Me? I'm annoyingly cheerful, apparently.
So having a being called Dark decide to stalk me is, you know. Ironic.
Not that I mind, because for a literal monster, he’s kinda sweet. Considerate. Extremely attentive.
All in all, moving to the city really has been wilder than I thought. I work in a coffee shop where the owner is engaged to a shadow prince and my manager is a witch, and that's how I met my shadow.
Although he isn't actually mine.
But I think I want him to be.
There’s just the small matter of saving the world from a doomsday prophecy to deal with first."]
BUNNY! Our sweet summer sunshine! Always soo positive and happy.
This went from cute and protective and adorable and soft mutual pining and everything watching, waiting for the inevitable to happy. Then the angst came. That was mean. I cried. I had to take several breaks. Because what if Bunny started crying? Fucking Felix would cry (and then the apocalypse really would start).
Plus three more books in the series coming soon!?!? Yes, please.
