Hunting the Moon is a paranormal romance set in Massachusetts and follows the daily lives of Daemon and Lilly.Daemon, the brother of an accused murderer who just received two life sentences, befriends Lilly. Lilly just happens to be the widow of the man Daemon’s brother murdered. As the story progresses, their relationship builds. The development of the relationship is partly due to both Daemon and Lilly being in need of the companionship of someone else. They are each haunted by the ghost of Lilly’s late husband and find themselves putting their resolve to test.The twists and turns in the plot keep the story interesting and flowing along smoothly, for the most part at least. I would have liked to see a bit more character development for Matthew, Daemon’s brother, and for Kat who is Lilly’s best friend…supposedly.I really enjoyed how the author used places around where she lived along with local legends to develop the plot for the story. The use of Celtic lore also aided in the development and was twisted into the plot and gave a deeper meaning to the overall storyline.There are grammar and tense errors in the book that were distracting as I read the book. In several areas in the book the author switches between present and past tense in the same sentence. This caused me to go back and read those sections again so I understood what the author was trying to convey to me. Spelling and punctuation also slowed my reading progress.I would recommend this book to readers that want an interactive story with a bit of romance with a strong paranormal foundation.4 out of 5 Stars.Plot: 5Storyline: 4Character Development: 4Technical Quality: 3Enjoy ability: 4Overall: 4With some editing, this could be a 5 star read.
