Compromise isn't in Warrick's vocabulary and Xander won't abandon the hunt. As the line between instinct and intellect blurs, will they survive the fallout?

A blonde, a brunette and a monster walk into a bar and all hell breaks loose.

It should trigger a bad joke, but days from a full moon Xander Cade, Tracker for the Northwest Motoki Pack, finds nothing funny about confronting an enraged Shifter in a crowded Portland nightclub filled with unsuspecting humans. The resulting carnage frays an already thinning veil of secrecy shielding the supernatural Kyn community from public scrutiny and ensures she can't escape the one man she's determined to avoid, her Alpha and mate, Warrick Vidis. Dominating, protective and compelling, Warrick threatens her individuality like no other.

As the Northwest Alpha wolf, compromise isn't in Warrick Vidis's vocabulary, but when his reluctant mate, Xander, refuses to abandon the hunt for a killer, he'll use whoever or whatever necessary to protect her and his pack. His normally steely ruthless control is strained by a series of anonymous threats and unusual deaths involving lone wolves. Add in Xander's continued reluctance to accept their Soul bond, and the line between intellect and instinct begins to blur, making him question if one woman's love and acceptance is enough to save both man and wolf.

As the danger escalates, Warrick and Xander must learn to trust each other and accept their rare bond or risk losing everything--their pack, their friends and each other.

Review

"Shadow's Moon is riveting, a fine addition to Gray's popular Kyn Kronicles series. I was caught up in it from the very first word, and I simply could not put it down. I can't wait for the next one. Gray has turned into a first class author of paranormal thrillers." -Regan Murphy, Black Opal Books

From the Author

INTERVIEW WITH JAMI:

Q: In this book, Xander and Warrick need to deal with a series of unusual deaths as well as anonymous threats, yet she is determined to avoid Warrick, who is her alpha and mate. What is the reason for her reluctance to fully accept their bond? What kind of impact did this have on Warrick?
A: Xander loves Warrick, but she's not blind to his faults. Warrick has made it clear that having a true partner as a mate is not something he's willing to do, especially as an Alpha can't afford to show his enemies weaknesses. Which is exactly what he views a relationship. Knowing that, Xander is equal parts frustrated, angry, and hurt, because no woman ever wants to be viewed as a weakness. She's a firm believer that a partner is just that--an equal player in the relationship. Until Warrick can get on the same page, she's not willing to give him that much emotional power over her. Of course, that doesn't mean she won't go out and hunt down the one threatening him. Unfortunately, her reticence in accepting the bond, is driving Warrick's wolf crazy, which in turn impacts Warrick's behavior--keeping him on edge and snarly. Add in the fact that someone is threatening his pack, and he is just not having a good day.

Q: This the story of Xander Cade and Warrick Vidis. What is their relation to Raine and Gavin?
A: Xander Cade is the only other female Wraith (a black-op group within the Kyn) besides Raine, which means the two have slowly become friends. Warrick is the Northwest Alpha, literally the top dog in the Northwest. We first meet both Xander and Warrick in Shadow's Edge. Warrick steps in at one point to assist Raine with a rather unusual aspect of her personality. From Raine's point of view, of the four Northwest leaders, Warrick is the one she steps most quietly around. Mainly because the line between man and wolf is miniscule and that's not something she wants to tempt crossing. Xander, on the other hand, is someone Raine can relate to--fiercely loyal and damn deadly, the two women have more in common than appears at first glance. While both Gavin and Raine hold Xander in high respect, both for her skills and her quirky personality, they do the same with Warrick, due to his well-earned reputation as the leader most apt to kill you than listen to your excuses.

From the Inside Flap

She needed to take him alive--before the humans got an upclose and personal lesson on what really lived in the dark--but it looked as if he had other ideas...

The club's lighting leaned heavily on a strobe effect, which guar- anteed a rousing headache by the time the night was over. The snaps of brightness stung Xander's eyes but she did her best to ignore it, trying to make out individual faces in the heavy crowd.

She found a lone empty chair sitting against the wall. Climbing up, she stood on tiptoe, stretching to see over the sea of bobbing heads. Between bursts of light, a disturbance in the rhythmic mass caught her attention. Two burly bouncers were making their way from the bar to the back of the club. Patrons stumbled out of their way, leaving a visible path. The bouncers pushed through with identi- cal grim expressions. The strobe lights flashed off the taller one's bald head, while his buzz-cut partner pointed toward something ahead of them. Following the gesture, Xander found Neil arguing with a pretty, honey-brown-haired young woman.

Xander tapped her earpiece. "Ryuu?"

"Yeah?"

"How long before you get here?"

"I'm almost there." There was a pause. "You found him."

"Oh, yeah. And it's going to get ugly. Quick." She watched the woman jerk away from the tall, lanky, dishwater blond, shaking her head. "I think I've found Sara, too."

Xander jumped off her chair just as Neil reached out to snag the girl, fury evident in his bared teeth and curled hands. "We're out of time," she told Ryuu, pushing her way through the dense crowd.

"Be careful." Ryuu's warning was lost as she hit a broad shouldered form in front of her. The answering bump knocked her hard enough she lost her earpiece. Screw it. Done being polite, she gave him a shove, sending him into the arms of his buddy as she continued toward the impending showdown at the back of the club.

Through the sea of gyrating bodies, she caught glimpses of the confrontation playing out. Sara was verbally ripping Neil a new one, while the club's security duo drew closer to the arguing couple. Sara's tirade wasn't the reaction Neil had expected. Under the strobe lights, his face contorted into something not altogether human.

So much for keeping the existence of monsters on the down-low from humans.

Fantastic! Loads of action, romance, and intrigue.

Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2014

Verified Purchase

This is my third and definitely not my last Kyn Chronicle book. Shadow's Moon is spectacular. Once again Ms. Gray drew me into a story where it felt as if I were involved.

I fell in love with Warrick in the first book. How could I not love an alpha male radiating with power and a little bit of instability. Xander is awesome. I love a kick ass female. I'll admit that she's a little on the violent side, but she's a dominant wolf shifter and Wraith, she'd be weird if she were any other way. Warrick and Xander's romance kept me rooting for them because it was sweet, violent, painful, and destined all at the same time.

The action scenes were fantastic. I don't even know what to say about them because they were just that good.

There were a couple of scenes in the book which had me cussing Ms. Gray out. I couldn't believe she did that to me, um, I mean the characters. I was really upset. To be honest I'm still holding out hope for one of the situations. I must be in the denial phase of grieving. (Yes, that's how enthralling the book is). If I believed in giving spoilers I'd tell you what the heck I'm talking about, but since I don't you'll have to read it for yourself. Which I totally recommend.

I can't wait to lose more sleep in the next book of the series when it comes out.

I purchased Shadow's Moon from Amazon.

Mixes mystery and romance

Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2014

Shadow’s Moon is an intriguing paranormal romance that managed to do the unexpected – it combined two alphas. Both Xander and Warrick are definitely alpha, and while that usually leads to a clash that doesn’t end too well, they make an amazing match here. While Warrick is the most alpha of the two, Xander is rather alpha too, and definitely not happy with just doing whatever Warrick says. Sparks fly off the pages, and that’s a good thing.

The story mixes a mystery involving unusual deaths of lone wolves and threats against the Pack, and a search for who is behind it, with a romance story, and Xander’s reluctance to accept the bond she has with Warrick, and how he struggles to control her, or at least, protect her when danger escalates.

A well-written paranormal romance novel with an interesting plot, plenty of surprises, and a couple I could cheered for from the start. I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

These books just keep getting better and better. The changeover from one couple to another kind of threw me for a loop but it has worked out well. The characters are wonderful, with such vibrant personalities.

Shadow's Moon - thrilling suspense, mystery and trouble with love

Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2014

Watching the conflict between two Alpha werewolves, fighting to figure out who's killing their pack members while falling in love was a wild ride I'll gladly take again with Jami Gray. Her characters jump off the page and come to life, to where I was sitting on the edge of my seat rooting for them to win the day and figure out how to love each other. Great job, Ms. Gray! Can't wait for the next one.

This book is the perfect mix of suspense

Reviewed in the United States on July 13, 2014

This book is the perfect mix of suspense, mystery, and romance. It is packed full of tension and really makes it hard to put down. The heroine, a sexy kick ass woman, keeps things fun. And the man... well, he is one possession, hot guy.

Massive Overhaul Needed

Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2021

Verified Purchase

1. Author seems incapable of writing an emotionally stable character. Every character introduced should be dead ten times over due to their own stupidity, incapability, or emotional angst driven suicide.
2. Her so called “elite” Wraith can’t seem to get in a single fight without nearly dying, they are just shy of pathetic, and definitely naive despite all their hype.
3. Illogical actions. Evolution would not allow for the Kyn to have developed the way they have, with their emotional bonds hindering their survival. For this book in particular with its focus on shifters, their animal instincts should keep them from becoming so pathetically dependent, keep them from blocking out basic survival and self-preservation instincts, and ensure they didn’t turn their back on a still breathing enemy *cough* Xander.

All in all the best thing the author can do for this series is let every single character introduced so far die. Fiery plane crash, kill em all, start all over.

Wolves

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 17, 2015

Verified Purchase

The thing I liked about this book was it was very well written by the author and I loved the way she interacted both of the main characters. Could not put the book down till 3.15am in the morning. A very well thought out plot and can't wait for this storyline to continue in the next book. Would certainly recommend this to anyone who loves to read about wolves with romance thrown in. Well worth the Five stars I have given it.
