Bewitched by Moonlight by Deanna Chase is a prequel to A Last Witch Standing series. Phoebe Kilsen is a witch who lives in New Orleans, Louisiana where she works for the Void (government sanctioned supernatural authority) hunting rogue vampires (and sometimes other paranormals). Her latest assignment is to track down a rogue shifter. Phoebe is at Night Shift (a night club) and believes she has found her prey. Unfortunately, she is intensely attracted to him which helps her to place a tracker on him while they are dancing (sparks are flying). The shifter takes off suddenly and, before Phoebe can follow him, Pandora requests her presence. Pandora, a powerful vampire, needs her assistance because her mate, Eadric Allcot has been kidnapped. Phoebe has a feeling that the shifter is connected to the disappearance. Phoebe will need all the resources available to her to complete this mission.

Bewitched by Moonlight is a prequel that will wet your appetite and will have you begging for more. I thought the book was well-written and it had a steady pace. Readers of the Crescent City Fae series will remember Phoebe Kilsen. A Last Witch Standing series focuses on Phoebe who is a strong, intelligent woman. She is a witch who uses her abilities to track down vampires and shifters who are breaking the law. We are also introduced to Dax Marrok, a shifter to whom Phoebe is intensely attracted (I am shocked that they did not set the club on fire with the sparks coming off them). Bewitched by Moonlight has magic, shifters, vampires, fighting, and sizzle. I wish, though, that the author had provided more background on Phoebe (especially for those that have not indulged in Crescent City Fae series). I do want to warn readers that there is a great deal of foul language (such a shame) and explicit intimate scenes. I am off to devour Soulless at Sunset. ( )
