Review: Moonlight – Lisa Kessler

Posted August 4, 2013 by Shannon in Reviews / 1 Comment

17834401Rancher Adam Sloan is more than meets the eye. As the heir to his Pack, the sexy werewolf’s biggest challenge is keeping his kin’s true nature under wraps. But a group of jaguar shifters threatens to reveal the pack, blasting into town killing humans in plain sight. And when he smells one at the local diner, his standing orders are to take her out.

Lana Turpin doesn’t realize she’s a moving target. Raised in the foster system, she only knows that she blacks out during the new moon and wakes up without remembering a thing. But now she’s being tracked by some strange organization that wants her back—even though she’s never stepped foot inside their compound. And the stranger across the diner is watching her like an enemy.

It should be a simple mission for Adam, but when he touches the frustratingly beautiful Lana, his inner wolf howls…mate. Now, the two must find and stop the people who hunt her…and Adam must keep his own family from killing the only woman he will ever love.

Reviewer’s Thoughts

Lisa Kessler begins her new Moon series with Moonlight, the story of werewolf shapeshifter Adam Sloan. A rancher and heir to his pack, Adam is hunting jaguar shifters when he scents one in the local diner. Who he finds in Lana Turpin, who knows nothing of her past, but knows she wakes up during the new moon with no recollection of her past. Added to this is a secret organization that wants her back, even though she knows nothing about them. Lana and Adam are left trying to piece together her past while also forging a new future.

One of the things that I enjoyed about this book was the dual point of views, alternating between both Lana and Adam’s POV. This was important because it gave additional insight and depth about the issues and events the hero and heroine dealt with throughout the story. Lana was portrayed as a survivor, who uses her intelligence and fortitude to find answers about her past at any cost. Adam is a natural protector who wants to support Lana and his pack, with a vested interest in discovering her past. It was interesting to get Lisa Kessler’s take on the differences between jaguar and wolf shifters as she wove a love story between the two species. The supporting characters from the wolf pack only add to the novel and help set up the rest of the series.
