Review by Lily, posted at ScuttlebuttReviews.comWow! What a start! I kept holding my breath to the point my husband reminded me to breath before I passed out.I think this story was well written all the way through. I love the plot because it is a little different and refreshing in terms of other shifter romance stories.What is there not to love Tristan, who is the perfect mate for Colby! Tristan’s kidnapping makes the story refreshingly different for me because he is so incredibly strong, an unbeatable shifter, but still only a young male desperate to escape his kidnappers.The other hero, Colby is another lovable character who is refreshingly different to me. Colby is an ex-soldier who’s lost his self-confidence because of suffering from domestic violence. Breaking away from the abusive and toxic relationship seemed simply impossible for him until Tristan was brought, beaten and abused, to the camp where Colby lives. Tristan's desperate situation is the last straw for Colby to gather the courage to rescue Tristan and get away from his violent partner. I love how these two meet and escape.Red Moon Rising focuses on Colby's wounded hero status. Whilst there is a lot of suspense, drama, love, and sensuality, this story still continues to pay attention to this wounded hero to overcome his abusive past.The other thing I really enjoy is how Tristan matured yet remained playful and youthful around Colby. That was really sweet and endearing to read.
