A Jazz Vocalist's Point of View

When I purchased "Cajun Moon", I did not know what to expect; however, as I began to read, I could hardly put it down, yet I had to slow myself down as I got toward the end. I so enjoyed each of the characters and I fell madly in love with Aiden. The descriptions of the various places in New Orleans were so precise that I wished I was there; and, the development of each character was such that I thought I knew them. As Aiden and Sassy danced to their favorite song, "The Very Thought of You", the tune began to resonate in my brain. I went to my computer and played the song and have added it to my list of songs to learn. I was sooooo happy with the ending--I was afraid something crazy was going to happen to one of them and they would not be together. I loved Aiden's appeal to Sassy in San Francisco that it brought tears to my eyes (when a man loves a woman) wow!! And, in turn I loved Sassy's appeal to Aiden on the ski slope. What a great love story. That book stayed with me for several days, so that I could not begin to read anything else. Congratulations on a great love story and a command of the English language and the ability to paint a picture/scene with words that held my attention to the very end. I had to slow myself down toward the end because wanted it to last forever. I would be remiss if I didn't mention Ivanhoe, who put the 'ho' in Ivanhoe. What a supportive and loving character!! And, I suspected toward the end that he was "the one". Thank you Ms. Dunn for such a wonderfully written and entertaining book. All the best to you in your future endeavors and your "new characters".

Great Read

Superb story line with richly developed, intelligent, and empathetic characters. Really enjoyed the manner in which the plot developed and the detailed descriptions of the surroundings, music, city of New Orleans, and emotions. A serendipity was the reminder of good music and classic movies that I've heard and seen over the years. There were several for which my interest was sparked to revisit. WELL DONE! I so enjoyed this novel that during the last 20 pages I forced myself to stop reading so that I could visit with these characters again the next day. The ending was well worth the wait.

Life Happens--so the test is how we handle it.

I just love this book--the characters are so well developed that you begin to think of them as friends you really care about. GiGi Gunn paints a picture with words so vivid that each page brings with it a visual that transports you not only into the character's mind set but also to their geographic locations. The real joys of the book are the twists and turns that the reader can not predict or fully imagine until they happen. Cajun Moon can be read cover to cover in one day as you sit on the beach, sun deck or on your sofa on a rainy day OR you can read a little each day just to keep the characters alive and part of your world. Whatever your choice--it is a must read.

Couldn't put it down!!!!!!!

I have to say I could not put this book down. I started reading it about 11:30 pm saturday night and it was 2:30 before I made myself put it down and go to bed. Got up and immediately finished it. Very good story. The characters were very believeable and likeable. I like the way the author was able to pull you into the story and you didn't want to let go until you knew all the secrets!! I don't know if this is her first, but if not, I'll be searching for the others!!

Cajun Moon

Although,thirty-three year old Sassiere "Sassy" Crillion never believed in the stories about a Cajun moon and its effect on life changing events she knew her life was perfect. Working in a New Orleans antiques store and engaged to her love of twenty years, Roulon "Roux" Robespierre, she never expected the moon to change her life. After surprising and catching Roux in a compromising position, she breaks their engagement and begins to enjoy her freedom. Never knowing that for twenty years, she was being watched and loved from afar by Aidian Symonds (Sebastian), the Prince of New Orleans. How does Aidan make himself known? Why does Roux hate Aidan? Read Cajun Moon and wish for more from GiGi Gunn. I purchased this book for it's title and New Orleans setting; however, once my reading started, there was no stopping until I had finished this wonderful story. The author has provided the reader with some humor, sadness, memorable characters, suspense, romance and a reminder that New Orleans still remains.
