Despite having recently inhaled the first two books in Thea Harrison’s new Moonshadow series, I think it’s necessary to preface this review with a few confessions/disclaimers: I truly don’t read a lot of PNR/fantasy, I’m only vaguely familiar with elves and Fae (who knew there was more than one kind and are they different?), and…
It is always fun when an author treats her fans to something extra; a character interview, a deleted scene or even an extended epilogue available only on their website.

Please have patience with me because I am about to gush unabashedly. I hadn’t really expected to enjoy this paranormal; I felt they had become formulaic and boring, and I had more or less given up on them. It’s been a very long time since I’ve read a paranormal I enjoyed as much as this…
