Publisher's summary

Hayden Crowe fronts an all-girls band down in Austin, Texas. Between tending bar so her sister can stay in school and dealing with the fallout after their addict father skipped town, she hasn't exactly had time to join the social media freakout over the recent outing of vampires and werewolves.

Her world comes crashing down the night she's attacked in an alley after a gig and bitten by a feral werewolf. Unable to return home for fear of hurting her sister, and with a message scrawled across her arm warning HOSPITALS NOT SAFE, Hayden is left with just one option.

Him.

Ethan Caldwell doesn't do relationships. Adopted son of the pack Alpha, he lives a solitary life as a barista and artist. Things three years ago with Hayden Crowe went too far. By pack law, she couldn't be told what he was. Ending it was for her own protection.

But when Hayden shows up on his doorstep, newly changed and in danger, Ethan defies his father's orders to stay away. Someone in the paranormal community is hunting her, and hell if he's going to fail her again.

Dark is part of the Blood Moon, Texas Shifters series. Sizzling hot romance with an ongoing urban fantasy story arc and a guaranteed HEA in each book.

good read

Dark is a paranormal romance set in Texas. I love the fact that there are Fun Facts and places in Texas mostly Austin and the book in NOT about Cowboys or Ranches. Hayden is a barista/ band member who gets attacked one night and runs for help into Dark a coffee shop where Ethan works. Ethan realizes what is happening to her and that she was attacked by a werewolf.

Hayden and Ethan

Having a history, Ethan and Hayden find themselves back together when Hayden is bitten by a feral wolf and has no one else to turn to. Hayden is part of a band and a total bad@$$! She is fierce, stubborn and very protective of her sister Elle. Ethan is a troubled wolf who was adopted into Ben and Sofia’s family in Blood Moon. He is tough, disillusioned, very flawed and damaged by what he has experienced in his life.

Ethan has been seeing Lacey when they both need to scratch and itch. But when Hayden shows up, something about her draws Ethan to him and Lacey is pretty much kicked to the curb. When Ethan and his brothers set out to find who turned Hayden and figure out who is after her sister, the tension sets in and Hayden finds it very hard to trust Lacey.

Mystery, romance, secrets, truths, and great backstories on both Hayden and Ethan make it very hard to put this book down! I am hooked and look forward to reading more about the Blood Moon pack and seeing what adventures the other brothers get into! Will we find out what happened to their father Ben? Will Ethan and Hayden be able to have their HEA?

I was astounded reading this book I was hooked from the start until the end, the story was well developed and the characters were sensational. This story was about paranormal shifter, Ethan Caldwell and Hayden Crowe, Hayden was walking on her own when she was attacked and bitten but doesn't know by what. Ethan was told by the "Alpha" his adopted father had told him to end the relationship, so he done as his told. Hayden needed help she doesn't understand what is happening to her, so she ended up going and talking to Ethan hoping he can help her. Their chemistry was amazingly good.

A Gripping, Suspenseful Paranormal Romance

Thank you to Kat Kinney for allowing me to listen to a copy of this book. This book was so much fun and had me gripped from the beginning. I loved Hayden's and Ethan's relationship. And the interactions between the characters and the lore behind the werewolves in town just made me want to keep reading. Overall, the entire story was really good. And I wish we had duel narration, but it was very good nonetheless. I just cannot wait to continue the series with Crave.

Hayden & Ethan

The first book in the Blood Moon, Texas Shifters series. Hayden Crowe and Ethan Caldwell meet again when she comes to him for help. There is drama, suspense, danger, twists, turns and romance. Enjoyed listening to Ashley Bodnar narrate their story.
