This is my second go at reading a book by Ashlyn Chase and I’ve come to the conclusion that her brand of humour just isn’t for me. Her flaky characters, unrealistic relationship progression and unfocused plot make me feel like I’m reading under the influence. Flirting Under A Full Moon is a light, girlie read that’s a good choice if you’re sitting by the pool sipping mojitos.

Okay, that sort of sounds like the start of a bad joke. Flirting with the Full Moon is anything but a bad joke. There are twists, turns and lots of white hot fun involved.

I haven't finished the book yet, but I had a few thoughts I wanted to get out. First, I'm annoyed that this is billed as a "different series." It's not really. It's the same series, just expanded beyond the apartment building. Which I'm fine with, but billing it at a new series makes the assumption that there's no dependencies between this and the previous series, and that's a bad assumption. It's using many of the characters from the previous series and expanding the background of one of the mi...more
Actually 3.5.
Nick Wolfensen, known to the women who frequent the Boston Uncommon bar as "One Night Nick", flirts with Brandee Hanson. Brandee doesn't want much to do with Nick, especially since she just got dumped via text. Before long, Nick, a werewolf, realizes that Brandee is his mate, but convincing her of that may be difficult. Meanwhile, Nick has a danger-filled case involving Brandee's cousin, and Brandee sticks her nose into it.

I didn't realize that this book/series is a spin off from the author's Strange Neighbors when I started it. I think if you haven't read them you would still be ok with this book, but they are cute books, so you should read them anyway.
I really like the idea of a bar where all the Supernatural people can meet and get to know each other. I did find it odd that it was staffed by all humans though. It seems to be things would be better if people had a clue.

Well I didn’t love this book but I didn’t hate it either. The synopsis really doesn’t explain what the book is about clearly. There is an interesting story that is told but nothing ever seemed to click.
The book was written in almost a YA style even though it is not. The characters never seemed to really connect. The characters in the background weren’t over the top interesting and it also seemed to have a feel that we missed a book somewhere when it talks...more

Fasten your safety belts, kids! This is going to be a wild, zany, flirtatious ride. If it's a paranormal, its in this book- or so it seems. I picked it up because it sounded like a fun paranormal romance from a new-to-me author that I decided to check out. I can best describe what I read as light-hearted paranormal romantic comedy that seemed to offer a nice little mystery to solve while poking a bit of fun at it's own genre of stories.

Men have dumped Brandee every possible way and she wants nothing more to do with them, Nick is drool-worthy; known for his one-night stands and feels Brandee is his soul mate. They are the perfect match for each other if they can get past a few hurdles: like the paranormal world and oh yeah, Nick being a werewolf. Author Ashlyn Chase has created is a wonderful light-hearted romance that is zany, fast-paced and filled with great characters. The secondary characters are all quirky and lovable with...more

A good paranormal read that is funny, exciting and romantic with the addition of having many magical properties and paranormal characters that keep you on your toes.

Flirting under a full moon was amazing! I just finished it and couldn’t wait to write this review. Literally, I’m smiling ear to ear. Granted, at first I had a hard time getting into the book and I found some of the character personality traits annoying, but by the end I was impressed by the book and thrilled that I had read it. I really fell in love with the characters and sympathized with their plights. I found the book to be romantic and fun. Some parts were not very believable or over the to...more

First off I recieved this book from the GOODREADS giveaway. Thanks.
From the Begining You meet Brandee she was broken up over a Text-Message. Which is the prolly the worst way to end a relationship. But anyway. She goes to Sadie the Psychic and She tells Barandee that she will find her Soul-Mate. He could possibly be the next man who walks in the door. Sadie tells Brandee.

Probably a 2 1/2, but rounded down due to the assinine marketing of this as #1 in a new series when it involves characters and many references to the Strange Neighbors series.
Really not sure why I kept with this except that I have the Strange Neighbors series and was hoping that the writing or characters might get better. I'll probably try book 1, but I'm not terribly optimistic.
Brandee is an idiot. Her "oh my random stupid phrase" thing got incredibly old after the first 2 times. Nick, well, it...more

Flirting Under a Full Moon is what I would classify as “chic-lit.” Although it is paranormal romance, the overall feel is very silly and light, the humor is more goofy than witty. At times I enjoyed this style of story-telling, but at other times, it annoyed me terribly. During what I would label “serious situations,” the story was told with cliches and goofy attitudes, which did...more

I have Ashlyn Chase's Strange Neighbors series, but haven't read it yet and didn't think I would need to in order to read this book since it's a start to a new series. Yeah, I was wrong. Nick is the twin brother of Konrad from book 2 of SN and there was a scene in this book talking about things that happened in the other book and didn't really explain it here so I was confused about what they were talking about.

FLIRTING UNDER A FULL MOON looked and sounded like a super cute paranormal romance. Unfortunately, I was more than a little let down after reading this book, since it was pretty much a boilerplate paranormal romance with frustrating main characters and a boring, forgettable plot.

Brandee is a waitress trying to make it as a professional photographer. She over hears Nick, also known as One-Night Nick, talking about the mayor’s daughter Kate being kidnapped. Brandee is upset because Kate is her cousin and she wants to help find her. What Brandee doesn’t know is that Kate is a fire mage and that Nick isn’t human either… and now she has the pictures to prove it…

Brandee is a human working at a supernatural bar but she doesn't realize the patrons are supernatural. Nick has just opened a private investigation business and his first case just happens to be to find Brandee's missing cousin. Brandee insists she help Nick find her cousin. During the course of the investigation things heat up and Brandee learns all about supernaturals. This is a very sweet read. Looking forward to reading additional books about the other patrons of the bar.
I love her Strange Neighbors series and was excited about this book. However, I was slightly disappointed with some of the dialogue, it didn't seem to flow right in places. I also wanted to smack Nick upside his head in too many various parts of the book. However, what truly had me giving this book, which I did enjoy, a 3 star rating, was the sudden expansion of the Strange Neighbors world. It was confusing and left me wondering if I missed something in the previous books. I totally get needing...more
I really struggled with the first half of this story. I thought Nick and Brandee 'fell in love' too quick. Brandee went from never considering " one nite nick" to falling in love in a few hours, then thinking he might have drugged her, but still thinking he was an upstanding guy - all within the space of a night. I thought there were a bunch of leaps that took place, that didn't really make sense. The second half of the book, Nick and Brandee seemed to get to know each other more and started tal...more

This is a fun and flirty paranormal romance. It was a quick read that had me interested throughout the whole novel. The author seems to make fun of the whole paranormal genre which had me laughing in spots. I would definitely read more books by Ashlyn Chase in the future.

marked it as dnf
Going to have to DNF this. In 50 pages we already have 3 would be villains. The story line seems really rushed as if I'm reading a novella and not a novel and the last line I read just hit the wrong chord for me. The blurb has so much potential :(
*DNF so no rating.

Actually, I really did like this book. Ashlyn Chase made me laugh out loud on several occasions. I like the fact that there wasn't any really foul language to the story. I did get to the point where hearing Brandee utter another euphemism instead of a curse word actually got to be a tad bit too much. I liked the idea of the Boston Uncommons bar, a neutral ground for the paranormals. I also liked Mother Nature and the "issues" surrounding her, shall we say, fertility problems......That was a hoot...more
