Sydney Carlisle has been running from what she is for a year following the attack that changed her into a monster that sprouts fur and howls at the moon. All she wants is to be left alone and to live life on her own terms. Everything seems to be going her way until the man who is the cause of her suffering arrives with some news of his own, and damn if he’s not as gorgeous and irresistible as ever.

Grayson Quinn has been searching for the woman he recognized as his mate for a full year following her transformation to moon shifter. He knows she hates him, but has no choice but to capture her and tell her the truth. She has to choose a mate, and soon. Otherwise, she’ll risk bonding with a male she doesn’t love as the wolf takes control and makes the decision for her. And he’ll be damned if he allows her to suffer anymore than she already has.

Karen Michelle Nutt has crafted a world with intriguing characters that captivate the attention and keep your focus from beginning to end. From the start, when we meet a wolven Sydney facing off against her former lover, I knew I was in for something special. It’s apparent they still care for one another, but due to past scars, refuse to confess their feelings. Revealing those circumstances that changed Sydney will ruin the story, but I can say there is a ton of emotion packed inside the pages because of it, and Sydney and Greyson deliver the goods time and again.

The material itself is flawlessly presented, and flows so quickly you’ll finish before you’re ready. By the time I came to the last page, I wanted to know more about the protagonists, and couldn’t help but imagine the life they would share together. It was bittersweet, as you are allowed to envision your own future for them, but I wouldn’t have complained in the least if there was more to enjoy. This is the kind of story you’ll think about long after you’ve finished.

Werewolf fans, be sure to put Moon Shifter on your TBR list. I couldn’t put this delightful little novella down.
