His Hope, Her Salvation...

Do you believe that love conquers all? How would you feel if the man that you loved turned you into a werewolf (what you thought was a mythical creature) then disappeared leaving you to fend for yourself? Maybe a little heartbroken and full of anger? Well, that is how Sydney Carlisle is feeling. It’s been a year since that fateful night when she was turned into a werewolf then the man she loved more than anything left her alone until today. Out on a run to settle her animalistic sexual urges, she runs into none other than Greyson Quinn, her wolf maker/heartbreaker. She has this sexual connection to Greyson she just cannot control and it makes her angry and aggressive towards him. After shooting her with a dart gun and putting a sedative in her wine, Greyson is able to explain what really happened. Yeah, it’s a little extreme, but I guess when you are dealing with werewolves not so much. Greyson explains to her that they are actually called Moon Shifters and he is from the Mac Tire pack which descended from Ireland. Sydney’s safety is his responsibility so it was important that he warns her that if she doesn’t pick a mate soon, every brute (male Moon Shifter) will be at her door forcing her to mate. Greyson wants to apologize for what happened but he had to save her life by turning her into a moon shifter because of how injured she was. Now he is here to make things right and help her choose the mate she truly wants, even if it means losing his own life. Can Sydney forgive Greyson and remember how in love they were at one point or will she run away leaving her an easy target for hormonal brutes that will stop at nothing to make her there mate?

Sydney Carlisle is a beautiful, caring, and strong willed she-wolf who was a kindergarten teacher until she realized she might eat one of her students because of her new transformation. She moved away to a remote, woodsy area where see could better understand herself and this uncontrollable urge to mate that she doesn’t quit know where it was coming from. She has a lot of anger towards Greyson and feels the reason she got attacked was his fault. Now she is monster not by choice. Will she be able to work through her issues with being a moon shifter and come to turns with what happened with Greyson?

Greyson Quinn is very strong, handsome and charming Alpha who absolutely loves Sydney with all his heart. He was devastated about what happened to her and is willing to give up his life for her happiness. He hopes for forgiveness, but it seems all she has is anger for him. Even though they are sexually drawn to each other, he will not give in to desire until she can forgive him. Hopefully, she can before the brutes locate and try to force their claim on her; then he will have to fight for her honor until she chooses.

Shapshifters, suspense, love and drama - this novella has it all and I really enjoyed everything about it. I was completely engulfed in the story, and the characters felt so real to me. I could feel Sydney’s anger and Grayson’s deep pain and sorrow which were so heartbreaking that I had to wipe my tears away to be able to keep reading. Their chemistry was so intense that you want them to be together so bad because the thought of Sydney choosing someone else was just plain awful. That was very frustrating for me, but I loved every moment of it. The passion between Grayson and Sydney was amazingly hot and steamy. I also liked the historical info throughout the story and at the end; it was very informative. So if you are looking for a well written novella with shapeshifters, suspense, some humor and amazing passion between characters, then please read Moon Shifter by Karen Michelle Nutt.

Halloween Superstitions may seem silly to us now, but at one time people took them seriously. Here are a few listed below. If you have a superstition you’d like to share, please do.

If a witch infects you with a spell, you must drink water from a running creek, using a cypress wood cup for nine days straight.

Witches cannot pass over cold iron. So many would bury a knife under the doorstep to protect their homes from witches.

The brass bell around the cow’s neck originated from fear that a witch could make the milking cow go dry. Witches supposedly hated brass.

In the Elizabethan era, the broom was one of the most commonly used household items. It is no wonder that the Elizabethan’s believed witches used brooms for transportation.

Did you ever wonder why people say “God Bless You” following a sneeze? The Elizabethans believed the devil could enter the body when the person opened their mouth to sneeze. Blessing the person would ward off the devil.

The Elizabethans also believed black to be evil. They also believed a cat was the witch’s pet. So a black cat crossing your path would surely lead to mishap.

They also believed the seventh son of the seventh son would possess supernatural powers.

Did you ever wonder why people joke about “knock on wood” after a statement so not to have bad luck? This also originated from the Elizabethan era. To touch wood would prevent the evil eye.

Sadly, in the Middle Ages the black cat became affiliated with evil. Cats are nocturnal creatures and they believed the cat was a supernatural being because of its glowing night eyes and sleek movements.

Norse legend of Freya, the goddess of love and fertility had a chariot pulled by two black cats. After serving Freya for seven years, the cats were rewarded and were turned into witches.

A kitten born in May will be a witches cat. (hmm…I have a cat born in May. She’s a little witch at times —not the other way around. Lol  We do love her though.)
