This is the second book in Aimee Easterling’s Moon-Crossed Wolves trilogy. As always, Ms. Easterling has produced a fun, suspenseful shifter story with an exciting plot. While this book can be enjoyed on its own, it will probably make more sense if you read the entire trilogy in order.

This story has a definite Romeo and Juliet vibe, depicting the impulsive romance between two characters from different cultures. I liked both of the main characters as well as many of the secondary characters. I loved seeing the contrasts between a woelfin family (human/wolf shifters who depend on a removable pelt, somewhat like a selkie’s) and werewolf packs.

This fast-paced, madcap adventure held my interest from beginning to end and kept me guessing. It offers lots of action, mystery, surprises, romance, and a few laughs. It ends on a satisfying note, with Luke’s pack heading in an interesting direction. I am looking forward to the concluding book, which should be out this summer.

This book contains some violence, minimal swearing, and sexual suggestiveness but no explicit sexual content.

If you enjoy this, I highly recommend checking out Thirteenth Werewolf and Other Stories, which includes Luke’s wonderful prequel story.

I volunteered to review an advanced reader copy of this book provided to me by the author.
