The scent of destiny...the danger in desire.

Raven Award Finalist - Favorite Paranormal Romance

Lana Dixon knows well enough to steer clear of alpha males, but Ty Hawthorne is as impossible to avoid as the sizzling Arizona sun. Her inner wolf just won’t give up on the alpha who’s tall, dark, and more than a little dangerous. One midnight romp under the full moon is enough for Lana to know she’ll risk her life for him - but what about her pride?

Ty puts duty above everything - even the overwhelming instinct that says Lana’s the one. She’s the Juliet to his Romeo: Forbidden. And with a pack of poaching rogues closing in, it’s hardly the time to yield to his desires. Or is love just what this lonely alpha needs to set his spirit free?

There’s more than meets the eye on Twin Moon Ranch, home to a pack of shapeshifting wolves willing to battle for life and love.

A paranormal romance with adult content. The perfect listen for fans of strong heroines, alpha heroes, werewolves and shapeshifters, bad-boy bikers, red-hot cowboys, romantic westerns, paranormal suspense, action-adventure romance, and fantasy romance!

very good

Loved it !! this story. the narrator is so fantastic it's like your really there!! good overall

Shifter Goodness! Sweet, sexy romance!

The narrator does a good job. She gives a clear performance. I enjoyed the listening experience.

I love shifters, and Anna Lowe does a great job of mixing shifters, romance, and suspense! I love the connection her characters have, and I love the hint of danger in this story! Lana, a wolf shifter, accompanies her grandmother to Arizona to help her get settled in her new home, and while she is there she meets, Ty, son of the Alpha and next in line to be Alpha of his pack. Lana and Ty feel an attraction and a connection to each other, but each has their reasons for trying to stay away from the other. Lana is a strong women, who doesn't want to be involved with an Alpha who just wants a little wife to take care of the home, and Ty tries to stay away from Lana because he felt a connection when he was younger, and is waiting for the person he calls his "Phantom", and also he believes his father may have some issue with Lana because of who her family is. On top of Ty and Lana figuring out what they want from each other, there are also some loose Rogues, who are killing things around Ty's family's land, so that adds to the pressure on Ty and Lana. They have excellent chemistry; awesome sex scenes! I liked that once Lana decided what she wanted, she went for it, and I enjoyed the depth of passion Ty and Lana feel. The trouble with the Rogues was intense! Exciting and fierce! I love how Anna Lowe had scenes where Lana and Ty are in their wolf forms, and I like the way the story unfolds. There are dual POV's, which is awesome, and I would have loved if Ty had another chapter in his POV after the events at the end. I love how strong both characters are, and I enjoyed the desert setting. I listened to the audiobook version of this book, and the narrator was good in some parts and not so good in others. She did a great job during the intimate scenes, but sometimes she would say things that didn't come across right, or were hard to hear, and also there were parts where it sounded like some parts were recorded at a different recording session, but luckily it didn't bring me out of the story too much. Looking forward to the next book in the series, and definitely want more from Anna Lowe!

Desert Moon

What a great start to this series! You are gripped from the very beginning and will be cheering on Lana and Ty all the way until the end. Both of these wolves thought they missed out on having a mate long ago and fight the pull towards each other for so long. Luckily their wolves are very determined to find the HEA no matter how their human side fights against it.

Mates

A fast and furious ride of a wolf shifter story. No matter how hard Lana and Ty try to fight it they are meant to be mates. Even with rogues on the loose and his father hating her family. They have a fight on their hands. I received a complimentary audio and I am voluntarily giving a review.

Awesomeness

I have totally enjoyed listening to this book. The narrator was good and she held my attention.

Wonderful!

I love this story! Lana & Ty are amazing together & this book just keeps getting better. The characters are all very entertaining & the story is well written. I read the story first but I really enjoyed listening to it. A definite hit!

Great Story

I really enjoyed listening to this story, I have to admit I did read this book way back when it was first released which was many books ago so I didn't remember all of it.

The story revolves around Ty, the eldest son of the alpha, and Lana the daughter of the alpha's sworn enemy. Ty has always believed that he missed the chance to meet his fated mate 12 years ago. He returned home and caught a whif of what he believed was his fated mate but he couldn't find her and to him she became the phantom.

Lana is visiting his pack's ranch because her grandmother is moving there. She meets Ty and their attraction is instant. Will Ty break his rule and allow himself to love? Will they both go against the alpha?

All this is going on against a backdrop of rouges butchering sheep belonging to neighbouring humans. The loss of land the pack has always used which would bring humans closer to them bringing with that the risk of discovery.

Can all these problems be overcome? Will there be a HEA?

This book has great chemistry, strong characters and a good storyline added to that it is beautifully read by Kelsey Osborne who puts so much feeling into her narration. A very enjoyable few hours were spent engrossed in this story. I now want to listen to the next book in this series.

loved so much

What did you love best about Desert Moon?

everything was wonderful

Who was your favorite character and why?

TY for me.. i have no clue why.. he is so totally alpha and yet... somewhat not.. lol i love him so much

Which character – as performed by Kelsey Osborne – was your favorite?

again Ty i think. even though he is performed by a girl it was fun to hear him..

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

all of it

Excellent

Anna Lowe books continue to build the cast of characters. Got to love an author who writes a strong man and woman. These are no wimps. Truly a superb job. Love listening to a book when I can't read.

Shifter Romeo & Juliet

If you like a good love story but don't want to commit to 7 plus hours then this is for you. There's love & tenderness, hope for the future, loneliness, outside threats, feelings of betrayal, sexy time & destiny. It's just up to you to read/listen to find out which order they come in.

alpha troubles, and a fiesty female.

This is one of Anna lowe's first books, a wolf shifter series with plenty of bite and humour. The characters were very enjoyable, but I think I love Cody best. The storyline is fun to listen to or read if you prefer ebooks, but I actually prefer these in audio. Kelly Osborne has been a consistent narrator for most of the authors books, she does such an incredible job of bringing these stories to life. The world pulls you in so much, it's hard to put it down. I can't wait to start the next book, especially because it's Cody's story.

Destiny can't be ignored

Lana is just visiting, helping her grandmother move back to Twin Moon Ranch, but when Ty picks her up from the airport, Lana feels a connection to him. Ty has a feeling that Lana is the one, but he has always put duty first, shouldering all of the responsibility himself. Can he share the burden? Each has their reasons for not pursuing the attraction between them, but destiny can’t be ignored. There is also the added threat from rogue shifters closing in on pack territory.
As the author’s first book, this is impressive. The narration was excellent.
I received a free copy of this audiobook from the author, and I'm leaving a voluntary review.
