Black Moon. L'ombra Del Cuore (2012) - Plot & Excerpts
Riley Jenson yet again kicks butt in her unique way! As a fan of this series I have to say I wasn't disappointed!! I really feel for Riley as she torn between the vamp she loves and the wolf who she really dislikes that has turned out to be her soul mate. Fate doesn't seem to be too kind to her.... But that's not the worst of it her soul mate is more than just a bit dangerous.... He's a hired killer who seems intent on tearing her world apart! Reviewed by Bek at naughtyeditions.comOk so you all know I’m Australian and I love to tout Australian authors and their books. The author who started the how paranormal/Urban fantasy for me is MS Arthur and I’m proud that she’s Australian.I’ve been hanging out for this book because the series has been building and building to the finale. One page in and I was sucked right back into the Riley universe. In this book we see a more mature Riley who has reached a point where she is finally coming to terms with her dual natures. She is in a settled relationship and is more able to concentrate on her work without being side tracked. As we discovered in the last instalment, Riley has found her wolf soul mate and I really enjoyed that the conflict in the book was part of her work which her soul mate just happened to be front and centre of.It’s hard to not give out spoilers but this next little bit might have one. You know what; I really think the way Kye was portrayed was right. I have had heated discussions with friends about this but, c’mon people, he’s an enforcer of types. He’s not going to be Mr New Age Man, Mr Sensitive and Sweet. He is going to be seriously cold and calculating. He is going to try and take advantage whenever and where ever he can. I would have been disappointed if he was suddenly transformed into a likeable character.The ending sucker punched me and yes there was tear or ten but I have to give props to Ms Arthur for not being afraid to kill off a likeable semi main character.There is no stagnation of the series even though it is now into book eight. There are other authors out there who seem to putter and die around this point but Ms Arthur constantly raises the bar with each book. While I know the next book, Moon Sworn is the final one, I feel happy and safe in the knowledge that Ms Arthur has other series on the boil. I am a diehard Keri Arthur fan, to the point I have at least two copies of every book just so I don’t run short when I lend one out to a friend, and can’t wait to see what she writes next.
What do You think about Black Moon. L'ombra Del Cuore (2012)?
This is probably the best Jensen book I have read and they're all pretty damn good
