Hunter's Moon [Wolves of White Ridge] is a short novella that focuses on two werewolf males, Jeremy and Rand.Jeremy has had an abusive past and due to that he's currently packless.  He fears alpha wolves and being around a pack.  All that changes during a 3 week college break where Jeremy's roommate convinces Jeremy to visit his his home pack.  Jeremy is still fearful and very apprehensive.  As they are greeted by the alpha, his roommate's eldest brother Rand, that fear compounds.  Rand is Jeremy's mate.  They both know it and recognize the bond.So yes it is a meet and scent your mate type instant love. . .Yet due to Jeremy's past and insecurities, Rand doesn't jump in with the claiming.  Going to bed yes but claiming no.  They developed a relationship during those three weeks and Jeremy felt safe.  He was healing.  Rand's pack was accepting.  All was going well.While the story was a light read and satisfying, I found it too trite at times.  One instance of this was when Jeremy finally confesses his past abuse to Rand.  The NEXT DAY the pair are in town and of course Jeremy's old alpha and enforcers are there, the ones that abused Jeremy.  Jeremy's old pack hasn't forgot him and the abuse and intimidation begins again.  Of course Rand puts a stop to all this and while that conclusion was expected and satisfying, it was just too pat.  Life doesn't work like that.  But again this is a shifter wolf m/m mating and a reader is already suspending disbelief.  Overall it was a decent read for a story of this type.  - Dan's Wife
