3.5 starsThis is the third novella in the Crescent Moon series that can be read as a stand-alone.Ella Hayes, a jaguar shifter, has left her pride to start over after suffering a public betrayal by a family member. On her way to join a friend in a new pack she meets a devastatingly sexy wolf shifter and sparks ignite. Ella is not one for one night stands but she never expects to see him again so why should she resist this sexy wolf. The surprise is when she joins her new pack and finds this same wolf shifter has just joined too. But can she get over her insecurities to find something more with him?Asher Kincaid has been a lone wolf for a century following the death of his mate for which he feels some guilt. He decides to join his cousin's pack and is pleasantly surprised to see the sexy little jaguar shifter that ran out on him after one amazing night. He plans to make her his but first he has to work for it, prove himself to her. When she is threatened this shifter wastes no time placing her under his protection as he works to convince her that they belong together.This was a sweet romance, with two individuals who maturely acknowledge their issues and address them. I found this a nice change from the many overly angst filled stories out there. There is some suspense in the form of a mystery to be solved as to who is after Ella. The supporting characters were interesting; some have had their stories previously told. The pack is unique having a mix of different types of shifters that have mated including one with a human. The epilogue not only showed the HEA but showed that sometimes there can be forgiveness between family members.ARC provided by the author.
