Tony
Giodone, a Mafia hitman and a werewolf, can smell fear, read emotions
and
always gets the job done. But when he is hired by Sue Quentin, a little
slip of
a woman, his life is thrown even more off-course than when he was
changed into
a werewolf. Sue has hired him to kill
someone for him. Should be a simple job, however, when she reveals that
the
mark he must kill is HER, he is drawn into her life, the pain she has
endured
and even cares enough to want to change the future for her.
Tony never
expected to come to care for Sue and he sure as heck never expected his
enemies
to use her to get to him. When Sue is taken by his enemy, who is also a
shapeshifter,
Tony has the toughest job of all…getting to the woman he has come to
love,
before it’s too late…
These are new
paranormal authors to add to this reviewers list of ones to watch for!
Cathy Clamp and C.T. Adams write a magnificent paranormal romance with Hunter’s Moon. Tony…man, he was a
hero ten-fold. A tortured, unsure hero,
whose tough bravado just endears him to the reader. Sue, her pain of
the past
and even her quiet mouse persona in the beginning, still captures a
reader’s attention.
Neither of these characters is easy, Tony especially, but the reader
really
connects with each of them and is held riveted as to where the story
will lead. As Tony
rushes to save Sue, the adrenaline is pumping and it is edge of your
seat drama
watching everything unfold. The chemistry of these characters is
profound and can
be felt immediately within moments of Tony and Sue meeting.
Hunter’s Moon was riveting, dramatic,
exciting
and sensual. But of course, the road to the end is nothing without some
twists
and turns, and these authors have provided that for their readers. I
especially
loved that this story was told in the first person, from Tony’s point
of view.
Not very often do we ever see a book that is told from the male’s point
of
view, and I for one loved that Ms. Adams and Ms. Clamp decided to try
this
route. It added flair and a more inventive feel to the story, which
this reader
relished. I hope to someday read about
Tony and Sue again. I will most definitely be watching out for more
work by
these authors!
The
recipient of The Road to Romance Reviewer’s Choice award, Hunter’s
Moon gets my highest recommendation!
