Review: Moonstruck

Moonstruck by Lauren Dane
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This classic paranormal romance from Ms. Dane is a superb read. In this new series, a town filled with magically supernaturals will naturally cause sides to be taken and fights to occur. In this story of the dueling werewolf packs, the prize is delectable Katie Grady. She is not a wolf from either pack. Instead, she is a witch who was jilted by her fiancé. Humiliated and heartbroken, she left her home to escape into the big city full of mundanes. When her daddy is ill and needs her back to help the family business, she reluctantly comes back to face her past. And what do you know, it isn't as bad as she thought.

I really enjoyed this story because of the righteous comeuppance Katie delivers to her ex-fiancé, the philandering asshat. When she wants to move on and show how much she's matured, he still tries to drag her back to his side. One little problem, he's been married whilst Katie's been gone and he even has children. The jerk! Lucky for Katie, she is now available for delicious stud, Jace Dooley.

The romance between Jace and Katie is spectacular. I love this unrequited high school crushes now finding the right time to come together as lovers. Jace and Katie are a power house couple and just so darn cute together. This character driven story makes my heart fill with happiness as Katie brings a bit of loving touch to Jace's world. Even the little details of planting some flowers around his home and business makes my heart sing in joy. I love these little demonstrations of love. It touches my heart and brings forth emotions to tie me closer to the characters in this story. With these emotions, I'm more engaged and invested in the story and particular the ending. This story is a smooth and wonderful read. Highly recommended to paranormal lovers who love happy ever afters and a little bit of vengeance mixed in.
