It was okay but I didn’t connect with the characters or the town, even though I appreciated the lonely tavern and its quirks. This read wasn’t quite what I was looking for in a cozy paranormal romance.

Fated mates!
Elara's life is full of grief after watching her husband die in front of her. He was killed by an arrow and she won't rest until she gets revenge. This witch will get answers, then watch his killer die.
Flare has been searching for leads, living out of car ever since he was killed. When she finally gets a location, she drives four hours to a hidden town called Wishing Moon Bay. She ends up at place called The Lonely Tavern where she meets a wolf shifter who happens to end up there by accident as well.
Clell is a bounty hunter, one minute he's drowning in a river and the next he's on the floor of the tavern of Morwenna's place. There he meets his fated mate who thinks he's responsible for her husband's death. But there's a mystery behind the witch's tale that he's determined to solve and prove his innocence. If only he can get her to work with him.
When Elara finds out that everything she believed in her life was fake, she doesn't know what to believe anymore. Nor who to trust.
A must read!

Good book about a witch who is looking for the person who killed husband and a shifter who is saved by the Lonely Tavern when he wakes up soaking wet on the floor of the tavern and his last memory was of drowning in a river. They're fated mates but she believes he's the one who murdered her husband so she wants to kill him for revenge.
I liked the characters and the story was a smooth read. Some laughs, some sex, some love and adventure in a magical town.

Magical confusion abounds!
Clell is drowning while trying to find his bounty hunter mentor when he lands in the Lonely Tavern. Ellara is looking for the bounty hunter who killed her husband, when she finds Clell, who recognizes her as his mate. But he claims he never killed her husband. This is a story with a ton of twists and turns, and some confusing events. You have to read it carefully, and then you may need to read it again. I think I might be doing that!
The pace is fast and the tone is uncertain with an action and character oriented storyline that has some steamy scenes and a lot of twists and turns. The characters are vivid and engaging. It says this is book 1, but you will want to read the prequel Dragons Don't Do Holidays (or something like that!) before this book. To learn more about Wishing Moon Bay, read the other series set in Wishing Moon Bay before you read any Lonely Tavern books. Keep in mind that some of them overlap a little (the dragon series and the magic series especially). Go by when they were released to read them in chronological order. This is a fascinating magical world with shifters, witches and vampires. Enjoy!

This book was really not for me, but maybe it’s for you
Pros: Cute and unique story line. Fated mates. Quick and fun read, would make a good palette cleanser or junk food read.
Cons: It’s like 99% dialogue and that drove me nuts. There were very very few actual descriptions of anything and it was really hard for me to get a sense of anything. Even the characters were very two dimensional and it was hard to get to know them and I felt like there was no real chemistry. I just didn’t feel immersed in anything because it’s basically all just listening to people talk. lol.

The Widow and the Wolf emerges as a captivating tale that weaves together the threads of loss, vengeance, and unexpected love. The novel, which is the first installment in 'The Lonely Tavern' series, introduces readers to Elara. Elora is a witch whose life is upended by the tragic death of her husband. Consumed by the need for retribution, Elara's quest for justice leads her to the enigmatic town of Wishing Moon Bay. Where she is also drawn to its peculiar establishment, The Lonely Tavern.
However, the story takes a turn when Elara encounters Clell. He is a wolf shifter who is the bounty hunter she believes to be responsible for her husband's death. He is also, fatefully, her destined mate. This revelation sets the stage for a complex relationship. Which equally challenges Elara's convictions and her heart's desires.
This is not just a tale of revenge; it is also a story about second chances and the healing power of love. Raines excels in creating a small-town atmosphere brimming with magic and mystery. The Lonely Tavern serves as a focal point for the narrative. It introduces a cast of quirky characters that add depth and humor to the story.

Unfortunately I did not care for this book. I liked the idea of a sentient building (KM Shea does a great job in my opinion with Wizard Houses in her Magiford series) but with this book the plot jumps around and the writing is disjointed. Sometimes things would happen and I'd be wondering "wait, how did we get here?". You don't really get to know the characters or their backstories. The author throws in a line about vampires existing . By the end you are left confused about what little you think you know of Elara or Clell's past, the other characters, and what the heck even happened. And the scene with the family in the epilogue? Yeah, I am happy for everyone who really enjoyed this book, but this one wasn't for me.

Enjoyable to a certain degree and nice to return to Wishing Moon Bay and a few known characters playing their parts.
But a major point in this story, a really major part, is left ignored.
Elara, as a CHILD, maybe having her memories messed with by a vampire, is strongly intimated at, then left unexplored and worse, unexplained. Then being sent to the world outside as an orphan. Just nope. Especially if it was supposed to be Silas who amended those memories. Cannot see him doing that.
The whole intense family dynamics of expecting forgiveness and the parents reasoning just didn’t work for me. I cannot fathom any parent doing that to their own child.
Loved Clell, only liked Elara.
More should have been done with the actual sentient tavern and Elana’s magic never fell into place.
Read through kindle unlimited.

It is to be back in Wishing Moon Bay
Although I’ve started this world after 2 series it’s very interesting. I’ll be backing up and reading the previous Wishing books.
I am very glad Harmony expanded on her Christmas book Dragons Don’t Do Hoildays! This is a hidden magical world with shifters, Mermaids, Witches and more. We get more of the mystery of the Lonely Taven and the owner Morwenna. We also see more of Flint and Liselle the couple from that book.
This is the story of Elara a witch and Clell a werewolf.
Elara has grown up in the “normal world “ but, her magic has brought her to town in search of her husband’s killer. When they first meet Clell knows she is his mate, but Elara thinks he is the murderer.
After some very unexpected twist they do get a Happy for now. I hope to see these two in further books.

Not A Romance, Mixture Of Multiple Genres
This segment of The Lonely tavern was definitely not a romance. The major basis is mystery mixed with broken threads and babble of environmental scenes. Not considering reading next segment. Normally I am a fan of Ms. Raines but book seemed to be pieces of multiple thought patterns without romance or a solid ending. As a matter of fact it is a cliffhanger which IMO is a cheap shot to sell another book. Even the epilogue was a slow path to nowhere.
As always am thankful for writers sharing their talent and imagination with us. Kindle Unlimited is a definite a plus for monthly subscription when encountering a story that is a slow end to nowhere.
Happy reading and hope my review saves your valuable time.

Mated To The Bounty Hunter
Elara is on her way to Wishing Moon Bay in search of the man who killed her husband. Finding her way to The Lonely Tavern, she finds what’s she’s looking for, or at least she thinks she has. Clell is at the tavern when he senses his mate outside, however, when the door opens he doesn’t expect her to try & kill him! What the heck is going on here? Now Clell must try to clear his name & help his mate find the actual killer. When things start to seem a little “off”, they need to figure out why. Follow along on their journey through the mountains of Wishing Moon Bay, The Lonely Tavern & the intriguing witch Morwenna who runs the place. This was a great read with a light spice & steam factor! Enjoy!

Really Violent
I am a sucker for sentient buildings, but there is very little in this book about the sentient tavern, or how it came to be. There are a lot of very graphic descriptions of violence that seemed superfluoustovthe plot. The "steam" reads like AI, very graphic, gratuitous, unimaginitive, and also superfluous to the plot. The abandonment issue that seems far-fetched and nonsensicle and the plot twist regarding the late husband is far too contrived. If this was Harmony Raines' first book, one would hope the next book might be better, but I lost count of the various series this woman writes. I don't think I'll be reading any more books from this author.

I started out enjoying this, but as it went on, I dialed back my enthusiasm.
It was a bit disjointed and confusing.
I loved the sentinent tavern angle. That was fun.
There were a couple of really confusing moments. When Clell suddenly decides that a vampire might have altered Elara's memories was one of them. I was left thinking WTF.
Then, when Elara decides she never really loved her husband, so why was she so intent on finding his killer and getting revenge?
The epilogue was super confusing.
I think I'll probably give the next book a go because this had promise, and maybe the writing will improve as the series goes on.

I was so excited for an enemies to lovers fated mates. Ooh, all the angst!
Sadly, this jumps over enemies in about 10 seconds flat and straight into instalove. Talk about a bait and switch. Really killed the book for me when she has an aha moment that even though they just met and literally know the bare minimum, she lurves him. Not just that but aha #2 is that she never lurved her dead husband. Spent months and her last dollar trying to avenge him? Yes. Loved him? Apparently not once she faced the clichéd fated mate who she knows nothing about.

Finding the book
New series but wishing moon bay is back looks like the focus is around the lonely tavern, we learned more about it with Finn when he got a job there it's not the only focus but it does add humour. This book is really sad I get they sent her away to keep the magic safe but they could of sent people with her so she was not alone how old was she? Would they know she can read the book of do they have to wait until she is four to find out? They did not act very warm to her.could of got her a place to live in the bay

Good Story
The story starts a little slow for me, then picks up nicely after the first 50% of the book. I felt for the widow, but she did have a temper and jumped to conclusions too quickly. Some of those jumps could have been deadly. I loved the last half of the book. The widow finds out what happened with her husband, what her feelings for the wolf mean to her, and who she is. But I felt like it was still a rocky ending in that both the widow and the wolf had no assets other than a car, no means of supporting each other, and no place to live. And yet they are happy. It felt unrealistic to me. I would have liked to see them settled.

Overall, it was ok. It seemed a little disjointed to me since they jumped around a little. A slow start as the introduction seemed to take a bit of time and it should have been a connection with Elara. I had trouble really liking her too much until the book was almost finished. Clell seemed a little pitiful in a sad way. The conversations he and his wolf had were a little distracting since they rarely did anything but talk about Elara and the Mate Bond. I liked the Lonely Tavern idea. More about that would be a better read, I think. Maybe to Book 2, I'm not in a hurry.

Poor editing
Didn't enjoy this story. The continuity was poor first she's looking for the murderer of her husband whom she found dead with an arrow in him, then she's agreeing a scarred man is like a policeman who came to see her when her husband was killed- where did he come from?! There's no mention of him earlier, and the impression I got was that she had buried him and started hunting. It was a bit of a jumble.

This is about two people who come together, One is an orphan, whose married and believes her husband to be dead. She is determined to make whoever killed him pay, while her fated mate is a bounty hunter whose confused by the whole thing, but they meet and he agrees to help her, while he looks for his missing mentor. It's a decent story not sure I will read the rest unless I run out of other books to read.

Interesting opening offering.
It took me a few pages to catch on, but this was such an intriguing cast of characters that roused my curiosity I had to keep pushing on. The Inn is certainly one of the best characters. I found Cell and his wolf very charming and delightful. Willing to be helpful and protective, but never pushy or bossy. He and Else's make a great team, and certainly are a welcome opening act for this series of magic, wishes, shifters, and other special beings.

Good story
Whilst packing a bit in background the story rolled on we!l. The coincidences were a bit thick and fast but the author does have to have some control! Just wish the sex descriptions could have been avoided, as they didn't add anything but titillation , not anything to the flow of the tale.

Great read
Two lonely people thrown together, fated mates. Each wishing for a real family. Lots of twists and turns, great story line. Can they trust each other? Stories not mushing up, got to figure out what really happened.

Cute Story
Very cute story about a woman on a mission to find her husband’s murderer. I know that sounds ridiculous for a murder story to be cute, but it is. Elara is a witch about to fall into a world of magic that she never knew existed. Well written and fast paced. Leaves you wanting more!

CELEIE and ELENA
One of the more confusing stories. .Hard to get ahold of the plot. Someone stole a book and the family sent a bounty hunter to retrieve it. They kidnap him and his partner is looking for Nikolai and meets his mate but she is trying to avenge his death. Have fun interesting characters.

Quick read about a recently widowed witch and her fated mate a wolf shifter. I liked the idea that the town full of magic was hidden from "The World Beyond" and the personality of The Lonely Tavern. I felt like I was missing the back story for most of the secondary characters, though (which I'm assuming is explained in the author's other series).
