An Unlucky Moon
Carrie Ann Ryan
Paranormal Romance
Heat Rating: 4
Hunter’s spent the past 4 years in
hell as a wolf battling for his life.
Now he’s free and found his mate,
Becca. Between the Pack’s council
and strangers who could take
everything away from them, Becca and Hunter have more to
fight and everything to fight for.
REVIEW: Despite having not read anything of the rest of the
series, I found myself swept up in the characters remarkably
quickly. Two Fated lovers, one a werewolf eager to do anything
to join with his mate and keep her safe, and a (mostly) human
woman, trying to work out who she is now that she has been
caught up in world of the paranormal.
Previous books seem to have covered the stories of others of
the lightning struck, women brought together when they were
hit by lightning and survived. Now it is Becca Quinn’s turn.
An interesting woman, she is terrified by a spider but handles
drunk patrons of the bar where she works with ease and verve.
Totally believable and with more story to tell, I quite liked this
character and found her reluctance to dive right in to this
completely different world, believable and best of all, she was
not hard as nails nor a complete walk over.
Hunter Brooks (an appropriate name for a werewolf) is also
believable with definite animalistic instincts held in check by
his concern for Becca.
Although the words to describe body parts were frequent and
a bit earthy for me, the love scenes were just that, loving. They
had humour and delight, and I found myself looking up the past
books and looking forward to the next ones.
