After suffering a horrible attack several months earlier, Tamra McMillon takes up residence in a small cabin in the woods of Pennsylvania and befriends two wolves who keep coming around the property. Little does she know these wolves are more than what they seem.
Kyle Rossini and his teenage daughter Cat are worried for their new neighbor, and the chemistry between him and Tamra is off the charts. It’s definitely insta-lust and insta-love. He knows right away what’s between them is special and that she’ll be a perfect mate for him, but their lives take a turn neither expected when someone tries to hunt Tam down.
Though I enjoyed the story for the most part, the insta-love didn’t feel real to me. I did like, however, that Tamra wanted to have a sexual relationship with Kyle. Even though she was previously raped, she wasn’t fearful of sex. So kudos to her!
Though the characters are interesting, and I liked the author’s writing style, this book needs an edit. There were stray typos (a few random periods and quotation marks that didn’t belong) and there was head-hopping between characters without proper scene breaks (but most of these flowed well, and I didn’t become too confused as to whose POV I was reading in). Also, the author forgot the heroine’s last name in one instance (she wrote McDonnell) and misspelled a minor character’s name.
There were a lot of secondary characters. Though this book is number one in the Lucani Lovers series, it’s connected to another series. Since I haven’t read any of those other books, some of these characters were confusing.
There are unanswered questions. The main two are: ‘Who tried to kidnap Tamra?’ and ‘Who shot Cole?’ The reader never learns who the bad guy is, and the conflict isn’t resolved. I hope everything is answered in the next book in the series, but I wish I could’ve read it here.

New? Adult Paranormal Romance.
I ended up doing the 'Speed Read' to get through it.
Had potential in the beginning, but is very slow moving and a bit juvenile.
I didn't think I was going to be able to get through the last half. But I hate not finishing a book!"
It was monotone and repetitive. Repetitive. Repetitive. Repetitive. Repetitive. Repetitive.

Kyle Rossini, Etruscan werewolf falls in love with Tamra at first sight. He can't believe it. He wasn't looking for a mate, but he sure found one. Of course danger lurks, but nothing will keep him from making Tamra his or keeping his family safe.

I fell for the hero Kyle from the beginning. From his simple conversation with his daughter in chapter one. To his compassion on meeting Tamra. Did I mention he's pretty easy on the eyes too. Kyle is fierce, but loving and Tamra is scared, but learning to live again. They are just what the other needs.

Kiss of Moonlight is the first book in a new series called Lucani Lovers. This first installment is a great beginning. I loved this story. But the bit of cliffhanger at the end about killed me. I'm eager to read the upcoming books in this series. ( )
