4.5 StarsIt has been a while since I have found a good paranormal romance, and after finishing Dark Moon I think that I have found a new series I am going to enjoy. It is written by an Australian author – Leisl Leighton – and it’s set in my state of Victoria too! It was exciting imagining the scene, visiting places that I have been to before. Not only that, I was swept away by the exciting storyline and the sizzling romance.Since Skye was a child, she lived in fear of two things: her power and large dogs. Skye’s grandparents raised her and to protect her, they bound her powers. When she is run over by a drop dead gorgeous snowboarder on a run down the mountain, her powers become stronger and soon danger is on her doorstep.The chemistry between Skye and Jason is undeniable and they find it very difficult not to act on it immediately. It may seem like their relationship is very fast paced, but throughout the story their pasts are revealed. Skye is the type of girl who likes to stand up for herself as she has been controlled too much in the past. This trait made it entertaining when she was with Jason because he wants everything done his way and for it to happen now. Jason soon learns that he has to tread carefully with Skye so she can understand everything fully.I enjoyed the pace of Dark Moon and it had a great mix of mystery, action and romance. The storyline was intriguing; the link between an Alpha and a Pack-Witch in particular. There were great side characters introduced that I’m excited to see more of. Shelley and Bron were fantastic friends and support for Skye. Jason’s brother Adam was amusing at times and is very important to the pack too. The constant danger throughout the book had most of the characters on edge, and the true evil masterminds weren’t revealed until late in the book. It was a very exciting paranormal romance and the story is far from over! I’m excited to see where things will go now!Complimentary copy provided by the Publisher, via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
