The Book: Hunter’s Moon by Lori Handeland

The Particulars: Paranormal romance, St Martin’s, available both in print and e-book

Why was it in my TBR? Because I like Lori Handeland’s contemporaries.

The Review:

The blurb:
Leigh Tyler was once a kindergarten teacher with starry-eyed dreams-dreams that turned into nightmares when the biggest mistake she ever made came back to tear her world apart. Now, Leigh lives only for the hunt. Werewolves are her prey, and love is no longer an option.

Leigh has been More...

After the 2nd installment of this series, I'm still feeling the same way. I liked it, better story than the first and wasn't as slow as the first but my problem is the H/H. The H/H really don't seem to have much of a connection. It's more like lust then all of a sudden 3/4 way thru the book, they profess their love, just like that. There's wasn't any build up and I didn't feel any emotional tie between these two.

Another problem is are the sex scenes. They're WAY too short in my opinion. I'm used More...

Leigh Tyler is a former kindergarten teacher whose world is shattered when her family, including her fiance, is murdered by a white werewolf. Soon after, she is recruited as a member of the Jager-Suchers, a secret organization of werewolf hunters. Her leader Edward sends her to the town of Crow Valley, Wisconsin, to investigate unusual werewolf activity, as it appears there is a werewolf killing and eating other werewolves. Edward also wants Leigh to train a new Jager-Sucher recruit named Jessie More...

Well, because of the enthusiasm of the first book I expected a very good continuation. But the book disappointed me very much.

The beginning of the book is similar to the first one, but in this part it was a big problem of the similarities. Often you think that you read the first book and it seems as the author hadn’t a idea for this book and write it down without any new thoughts. The story has not many suspenses and the erotic scene are very thin and sketchy, too.

The flashbacks for the dead of More...

I didn't care at all for the main female character, Leigh Tyler. She was rude, plain and simple. I guess I was supposed to feel sorry for her because her family was eaten by werewolves, but whatever. The other female, Jesse McQuade from the first book in the series, was equally unlikeable. Once again we have an author who attempted to write strong, independent female characters and failed miserably. On the other hand, I found the main male character, Damien Fitzgerald, intriguing. I really wish More...

Was very much like the first book, sometimes slightly better, but a huge disappointment. After the horrible first novel, I gave this and the third novel a chance, because my main problem was the heroine, Jessie.

Unfortunately the heroine in this book, Leigh, is just like Jessie. The plot was just a little better, mostly because it offered a background-story. Now, what's wrong with the guys in Handeland's books? It seems they all say the same stuff. 'Waited for you all my life blah' and 'If you w More...

Another great installment of the Night Creatures series!! I love how the author uses Ojibwe history, tales and ceremonies to create a plot base that is completely unique. The book started off a little slow, as did "Blue Moon" (Nightcreatures #1). We are introduced to a new character, Leigh who has been hunting werewolves for several years for a government organization called the Jager-Sucher Society. She has been sent to a small town in Wisconsin to help train Jessie, the town Sherriff and her l More...

I was expecting more out of this book because I liked the first one in this series (Blue Moon) so much. I think that this book had too much sex in it. I know there was sex in the first one also but it just seemed like this one went a little overboard.

That said I still liked the story. I liked the character Leigh, she showed what I think most powerful women feel, that there is a soft side to them also (no matter how much they try to cover it up). I liked that Jessie was still a part of this book. More...

I liked this book better than Blue moon. It has actually convinced me to get the next book in the series.

It is a nice easy read, still not alot of heart to it but more than Blue Moon. I actually found myself getting to know Jessie and Will (the main characters in Blue Moon) alot better, and it wasn't even their book. I really liked story it was a little less predictable I and thought that Damien and Leigh were pretty damn cool.

One thing I'm not used to is the negative speal on warewolves. These More...

My sister actually picked this book up at a used bookstore decided it wasn't her kind of book. Knowing I was a sifi nut she gave it to me to read. I got hooked and have since read all of Lori Handeland's nightcreature novels. This is no. 2 in the series best if you read then in order. But they are all good.

Like the Dirk & Steele books, this series focuses on a different romantic pair of characters, while sometimes including people from previous books. This one still had Jessie and Will in it a lot, although the new star was Leigh. I did not like Leigh's character as much as I liked Jessie's, but it was still a good story, although I do kind of see a pattern forming. It's only the second book, so we'll see where it's going. Plus its fun to see how many Ojibwe words I can recognize. There's not More...

Hold a grudge much? The female lead in the book has decided revenge will be her mission in life. How long can you have nothing in your life but anger? To be honest I would think its plausible given her back-story but it makes for a not very likable character. So Leigh is sent to small town Wisconsin to solve the "wolf" problem. Enter Damien Fitzgerald, an enigma wrapped in a mystery. He seems to be hiding an awful lot, not to mention he seems to be in all the wrong places at all the wrong times. More...

I gotta say it again... Nazi's just make werewolves more fun!

In this installment you get the freaky furry gathering in a tiny little town and it's going to take three Jager-Sucher's to take down this pack.

There were a few problems with this book. First of all I felt that I was reading the first book in the series all over again. It was very similar to the first in the series. It felt like the story was just repeating itself but with different characters. A lot of similar lines like the first book. I liked the guy but for some reason I really couldn't get into the girl character. She wasn't my favorite character.

I liked this book but I cant say I was in love with it. The way the main character thought was alittle off for me. I cant really explain but I dont feel as if I will read the book over and over again like I do with other series that I have read.

I really enjoyed Hunters Moon. Nice pace and characters worth rooting for with plenty of surprises to keep you guessing.

ist was a nice book but definitely not more ... the references to the couple from the first book are nice

Ok, same as first book, same story, same sex scenes just with different characters.

I could barely stand the main female character. I felt zero sympathy for her. And she was annoying. Constant pity party for her, boo hoo. I've read these out of order and I'm only continuing with book 4 because I've heard it's better than this one.

Interesting. Not my favorite series, but still an exciting plot. Keeps you guessing.

I enjoyed Leigh and Damien's story. I, also, enjoyed that Jessie and Will were still prominent in this book. I look forward to reading the next in the series.

I couldn't put this book #2 down. I wanted to know who was a werewolf!

Will and Jessie, from Blue Moon, were also in this book. I absolutely LOVED their interaction. Now that their troubles are over, they were just plain fun!

A great novel for all the wanna-be weres out there!!!

Damien Fitzgerald(werewolf) & Leigh Tyler

From one of my favorite series.

i didn't even finish it.

Enjoyable book with lots of action.
