Running With the Moon by Kiernan Kelly: Release Day Review with Giveaway

March 15, 2017 by Denise

runningsynopsisHeart of the Wolf

What happens when a veterinarian ends up a patient in his own animal clinic?

Dr. Dae Anderson needs to lose the deadbeat boyfriend who is holding him back, but Jack is determined to hang on to Dae—even if he has to resort to violence.

Dae has worked hard to fit in among humans, and if his secret gets out, he’ll lose everything. His veterinary assistant, Sean, might be just the man to stand with Dae… against Jack and the world.

Courage of the Wolf

The most painful changes don’t involve the shape of the body, but of the heart….

Just as Dae and Sean are settling in to life as a couple, Dae is contacted by his brother, who still lives with his former pack and who exiled him for being gay.

If he refuses to return to Wyoming, a sociopathic alpha will slaughter Dae’s family one member at a time. And deep down, Dae knows he must confront his past before he can truly have a loving future with Sean. First, they have to stay alive.

michelle review

Running with the Moon is a 2 part story where we meet Dae, the Vet Shifter and his adorable tech Sean.  Dae is in an abusive relationship while Sean is hanging out on the sidelines waiting to jump in.   I absolutely adored Sean and loved how Dae had no clue Sean had any feelings towards him.

Both stories combined are about 150 pages and Kelly manages to put a lot of information into those pages.   Short stories always have (IMO) given a fast pace feeling due to trying to tell a story in fewer pages.   Sometimes it works and other times is doesn’t.  Running with the Moon fell in between for me.  I would have preferred to have more character development as well as more details regarding Dae as a shifter throughout both short stories.   The writing was good and there was no grammar/editing issue that I saw.

I really enjoyed this book but wished it would have been longer.    Kelly gave us a little bit of everything – some sweet, some sexy, some actions and some tension.

If you are looking for a quick and sweet story – this will definitely fit the bill.    I look forward to reading more from this author.

✨EXCERPT: BE MY RUIN by Davidson King releasing July 22nd!#PreOrderHeremybook.to/BMRpreorder “Took you long enough.” Penn grinned. He was in the middle of the bed, beautifully naked. Candles were strategically placed around the room, and he was shaking a can of whipped cream.“My apologies, had I’d known dessert was waiting for me, I’d have pushed Dean out sooner.”He chuckled. “No, Gideon, I’m not dessert.” He angled the can my way. “You are.” He patted the bed that I only just realized had a towel on it. “Hop on.”“Can I shower first?”He shook his head. “You can shower when I’m done with you…you’ll need it.”While I preferred to wash, I’d taken one this morning so I wasn’t gross. I wasn’t about to ruin Penn’s plans, so I quickly removed my clothes and tossed them onto the ottoman. Penn’s gaze traveled the length of my body, and his dick was hard and weeping by the time I crawled onto the towel.“How do you want me, Chef?”He bit his lip, eyes twinkling with mirth. “On your back, legs spread.”I did as ordered, never looking away from the gorgeous man who, judging by his expression, was going to devour me.“Not that I mind, but what’s this all about?”He jiggled the can but stopped before he sprayed any of it on my skin. “Um, the kids are gone, the house is empty, it’s Friday, the weather is hot, I’m human…take your pick as to why I want to eat you up, Gid.”While it was true—we always wanted each other; two years hadn’t diminished that feeling, and I was sure a hundred more wouldn’t either—there was something Penn was scheming…and I was here for it.“Okay, have your wicked way with me, then.”✨Catch up on book 1, Be My Monster, available in KU, before book 2 releases: a.co/d/02NkGJDH#davidsonking #mmromance The Author Agency ...

My review of: Sweet Devotion by Riley HartIf you read the first three books in this series- all MM- you had to love Aislin. Not only the only woman, but the youngest. Who was under her father's thumb but is now happily living life at college. And through those three books we know that Aislin and Zuri are together. But we didn't know the STORY. Now we do.We get a novella that tells a full story- from when they met to the conflict that they have to deal with and a lovely prologue (I love a flash forward prologue!) without sacrificing story, dialogue or arc.And who knew Rory would turn into a giant teddy bear? I mean, a mafia teddy bear but still.In the end, Zuri found herself a family, Aislin found herself and we were left totally satisfied.*trigger warning* there was a murder or two that seemed a bit gratuitous, even for mafia. But you be the judge4 pieces of eye candyThe Author Agency ... See MoreSee Less

Paralyze by JJ Asher...my reviewDisclaimer that I did not read book 1 so some things came as a surprise to me. This book is more complex than you think at the beginning. Tek really has a big arc that is played out on the pages that make him deal with his missing best friend, his parents, his missing brother and the sudden appearance of his best friend's little brother, Carey.Carey also has a good arc in that he was the kid who took off at 18 and kind of bummed his way around the world wherever the surf was good. But missing his big brother sent him home to Washington state. And a missing brother.There was a lot of emotion in this book. Tek has definitely been through some things and they have shaped the man he is now. Stand offish, no strings attached, with friends he only has because they refuse to give up on him.There are some elements of BDSM toward the end of the story but it is evident, looking back, that they were always there. Just not in a sexual manner. This is a sloooooow burn as Tek refuses to acknowledge his attraction to Carey until it's impossible not to.The only thing that I noticed was that there was a period of time where Tek apparently went off the rails a bit after the thing (no spoilers) happened in the past and it's kind of unresolved. Other than that, well written book and I need to go back and read book 1!4 1/2 pieces of eye candyThe Author Agency ... See MoreSee Less
