Wolf Moon

Aileen McKenna has come to Wolf Creek to be with family for the holidays, but more importantly to study wolves in the wild. She's simultaneously loved and feared wolves for years and isn't sure why, but she's determined to get to the bottom of her own strange experience in Wolf Creek years ago, as well as to protect wolves. When she arrives in town, however, she discovers that several people have been killed. The locals believe wolves are the culprits, but she disagrees. Rhys Lindgren, a mysterious, reserved man who seems to know a great deal about wolves, agrees with her. Though she isn't sure if she can fully trust Rhys, she turns to him for help discovering what is behind the deaths. Wolf Moon is an interesting tale of suspense with a paranormal twist. As a heroine, Aileen was rather unremarkable, which in this case was a good thing. She's in her early thirties and not fantastically beautiful and perfect, making her easy to relate to. She's also stubborn and alternately brave and fearful. Rhys is the strong, silent, mysterious type. He cares a great deal about the wolves and is willing to do whatever it takes to protect them and Aileen. The secondary characters populating the book add interest to the story, especially the local fortune-teller and the employees of the lodge where Aileen stays. The mystery of who was killing the locals was rather easy to figure out (in my opinion, at least), but it made a good backdrop / impetus for the budding feelings between Aileen and Rhys. The best part, in my mind, was Rosemoor's very unusual take on shapeshifting, which I can't explain without spoiling the story. Overall, Wolf Moon is a pleasant and entertaining read, with a cool twist. Cassie reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed

Story grabs you and holds on...

Reviewed by Wendy Hines Aileen McKenna has a past she can't remember. Working on her thesis of how mankind and wolf can co-exist, she takes a trip to Wolf Creek hoping to get a chance to study the wolf packs up close and personal. What she didn't count on was meeting Rhys Lindgren,the tall, dark, secretive stranger in the woods. They seem to have an invisible, but emotional connection that stuns them both. Several bodies keep turning up dead, and the townfolk are scared. They believe its the work of the wolves. Aileen and Rhys work together trying to uncover the mystery, as they firmly believe that the wolves wouldn't hurt anyone unless coerced. Rhys seems to have a magical infinity with the wolves, and there is just something so familiar and right when he is with them. Aileen is not ready to believe what she thinks is happening. Werewolves do not exist. But if they do, could they be the murderer? The local gypsy lady believes she can help Aileen if and when she is ready to believe. Aileen has a legacy left to her from her grandmother. She dreams of the future, and sometimes the past. But some of her past is missing. After she meets Rhys, they become closer and the dreams become more vivid and clear, showing her glimpses of her missing past. The pieces begin to fit together as they come closer to unravelling the mystery of whom the killer is and revealing one another's secrets. This book surprised me. I was intrigued from page one. The characters were compelling, and the plot was well-twisted. Armchair Interviews says: If you like a well mixed story of Paranormal Romantic Suspense, this is for you.
