Seven years ago Artemis Williams' world shattered when werebeasts murdered her parents, leaving her marked as the mate of a monster. A monster she never thought would find her. Until he did.
Now that sexy, arctic werewolf Orion North has finally caught his mate he's determined to claim her curvy body and unravel her secrets. Even if that means helping Artemis track down her kidnapped vampire roommate. It should be easy, but Orion's got a secret, too. And if Artemis isn't careful it will destroy them both.
In the second novella, we see Artemis lock horns (metaphorically) and lips with her wolf mate Orion North. She needs his help locating a friend who has been kidnapped, but secrets are being kept that could mean trouble.
Curiosity and still needing some help gently waking my mind up, had be picking up the second novella in the series.
The fact that Orion
Again, I have to say, I seriously do not get why they were not combined into one book! For some reason book 3 is not on KU so I’ve skipped that and gone straight to book 4 as I’m curious to see how things end.
Huntbound (Moonfate Serial Book 2) By Sylvia Frost Five Star HOT!
If you can't deal with cliffhangers this is not a series for you. If you pass on Sylvia Frost's dynamic serial, you will miss kidnapping, murder and evil. And sex so hot it will leave you wanting more, just like Orion promised Artemis. Why does Lawrence's V-positive blood get him kidnapped? Who would be interested in Artemis' old blood? Who does Orion think Artemis Williams is?
Sylvia Frost has created a world very different from ours in many ways. Unfortunately, there remains the fear and prejudice against those that are different. Ms. Frost edgy style of writing will draw you in and hold you right from the beginning to the rollercoaster ride to the end.
Orion said he would help Artemis rescue her kidnapped friend so long as they can try to get to know each other. Artemis finds out Orion is an agent with the FBSI and he uses his werecall juju to make her tell him why she hates weres. I was totally fine until Artemis wasn't mad at him for that. She was all just oh I'm so glad he forced me to say that so I had no choice, I feel so much better. That bothered me, ok maybe it was the right decision but someone taking away your freewill to keep whatever secrets you want isn't ok, and I was surprised Artemis didn't feel the same.
Repetitive, mediocre and muted...even with a dead body and a kidnapping. I had hoped the story would pick up. Unfortunately it hasn't and still drolls along in first person with boring, whiny, "woe is me" Artemis Williams and Orion North. Still no chemistry, suspense or excitement...but the search is on for the missing Lawrence.
This book tried way too hard to be dramatic, with its 'Oh, so surprising' chapter endings and big 'cliffhanger' ending. Really though, I don't understand how ANY ONE OF THEM could have been surprised by the events that occurred or the secrets revealed. Besides Orion's being a part of the FBSI, there were numerous clues to every other piece of 'surprising revelations.'
Orion: Your mate ARTEMIS lives in a completely empty and bare house inherited from her dead grandmother. No other family present or memorabilia to be found in the house. Her constant reluctance to speak of her family or death. He obvious aversion to werebeasts and death/blood (She has a vampire roommate. Why else would she be queasy about it?) And many other telling signs that he literally just ignored ENTIRELY. All this should have made the 'cliffhanger' ending less shocking for Orion.
That beginning though; What even was the point of them being stuck in a dream (nightmare, whatever) together? Why/How would they BOTH fall asleep at a time like this. It is literally nonsense all around. And back to there being NO POINT. It seems the only true purpose it serves was to waste time that could have been spent looking for Lawrence, who by the way we need to wait for an entire other book to even get any smidgen of information on his whereabouts. Artemis could have come to the revelations she did in any number of other non-time-consuming avenues. The whole ordeal was quite pointless. Truly.
This was basically the entire book. A time-consuming nightmare and a shit-ton of obvious revelations. You could not get more ridiculous than this, I am sure. Really wish I had not accidentally purchased the next book, because I am very tired of Artemis's constant wallowing over her 'Oh, so tragic' past and Orion's dominating and arrogant BS. Oh, well. Here goes everything.
I was given a complimentary copy for an honest review by author Sylvia Frost. This is part 2 of her Moonfate book series.
Artemis and Orion are trying to find out who kidnapped Lawrence and killed the pufferfish. They have so many hidden truths that they are keeping from each other and when the truth comes out their future is in jeopardy. Orion is having a hard time trying to keep Artemis from harm because she is not listening to him.
This part 2 has even more action i it and the author wrote the story line flow as smooth as part 1. The characters of Artemis and Orion are great in their interaction together.
This book is for any paranormal romance book lover who likes a little more action in their books. This part starts off where part 1 leaves off so it is best to read them in order.
I hate, hate cliffhanger, but Sylvia Frost has me hooked on this one....Seems like that is happening to me a lot lately, but believe me if it wasn't good I would not be saying so.
Artemis is finally realizing that what she feels for Orion is not just in her dreams, it is very real and she wants to feel it in real life.
Orion just finds out who Artemis is, will he still feel the same for her now? Will he give her what they both yearn for, or will he despise her for her role in all that has happened to him and his kind?
Action and discovery in this 2nd installment of the serial, I can't wait to read on. Thank God I don't have to wait too long.
Congratulations for getting me hooked on a serial Ms. Frost.
Artemis Williams has been running for her life and running from her mate for seven years. Now, she has returned home and isn't allowed to hid any more. Her V-position roommate has been kidnapped and there is a dead were-puffer fish (Yep. Puffer Fish) is dead on her new living room floor. Artemis' choices are limited but she reaches out to the werewolf mate that she's been hiding from. From here more pieces of the story unfold and I must say that I enjoyed every bit of it. The world building is excellent, believable and parallels the present time period. Looking forward to other installments in the series.
Since this is the second installment in the series, you really should read Moon Bound before this one. I am not sure if I love or hate serials....on one hand I like the really quick read, but hate waiting for the next installment. Again this installment ended on a cliffhanger that has me not sure I can wait until the end of the month for it. I am really enjoying how Artemis is changing her opinion of werebeasts in general and her mate overall.....can't wait to see how this one turns out overall.
Well now, I first want to say that "I HATE, HATE, HATE" cliffhangers. But this book is so great, that I can forgive Sylvia Frost for doing this to me. Good thing that the next book will be out soon too. Otherwise I just might have to go stalk her facebook page and let her know just how much I really hate cliffhangers, lol. But seriously this was one book was even better than the first one Moon Bound. I am so looking forward to reading the next one so, so much. Time has got to fly by very quickly, please. I gotta know what happens soon.
2nd in series....You want the first too..and then 3rd out this month...A MUST READ...WONDERFUL STORY,
If you are new to this series you don't know that Orion is a werewolf, (future) mate of Artemis,a human. And this is mostly their story, you really want to get the first one Moonbound, And Bloodbound Nov.31,2014.What I can tell you is I have read both the 1st two and will be reading the 3rd. I stayed interested in each that I read though the night because I didn't want to think about forgetting anything if I put it down and forgot to pick it right back up.
Huntbound was totally hot, there are no words that will do this justice, and the ending will leave you speechless....you will truly say, NO she didn't! it rocks! I love when they can keep me guessing, and this baby hit me right between the eyes, I LOVED IT! This is full of non stop shifter action, and if you haven't read the first in the series, you need to do it! remember, FATE IS A FUNNY MISTRESS, AND SHE WON'T BE DENIED.
Wow. Just wow. Read Moon Bound before read this book. This book keeps you on the edge of your seat. Plot is well developed and so are the characters. I love getting to know the characters and feel like I'm there with them. I can feel the tug of war going on inside of Artemis as if it's my own personal war. I feel Orion's frustration with Artemis as if he was frustrated with me. The end being a cliffhanger was a bit of a bummer but I can't wait until the next part comes out.
WOW. What a powerful story Action packed and very entertaining storyline with several twists and turns. Artemis meets her destined mate Orion and the pull is almost more than she can resist. But somehow she does until she goes home to find her best friend missing and a dead body in her house. With no one else to call and help her, she ends up calling Orion. And this is where things really start to get interesting.
LOVE THIS SERIES!!!!! Moonbound was fantastic, but I think Huntbound outdid it. Steamy romance mixed with action and humor and you have the right combination for a great read. Can't wait for next book!!! If you haven't started this series you're really missing out. I received this book as a gift for an honest review. Patsy Sacco
Exceeded my expectations! After the kidnapping, the couple are thrown together to find Lawerence. Artemis is forced to face her grief, can this strong female become more from it? or will she cave? New shifter, Cal, is a tiger and a threat to Artemis. The plot gets deeper with old blood and new revelations! Bring it on!
This section of the book too a big step in the right direction with more action and intrigue, but I can't help but stress how much I HATE 'books' that are sold in multiple parts. Be an actual author and write a BOOK instead of short stories just to make some money. Lure you in with a free part, then this one is $2.99 which ends on a cliff hanger. Irritating!
5 stars here. But be warned cliffhanger from.....what!!! But don't worry book 3 is out (only reason I'm not being an impatient brat) ;) awesomeness Sylvia Frost. On to the next one!!
Felt contrived. It's a whole other take on shifters, but the information should be explained up front rather than having you try to piece it together. The girl was probably one of the most annoying people ever. Wanted to love this. Just couldn't
Artemis' best friend has been taken. And the only person who can really help is Orion, her mate. A mate she refuses to accept, but working together may change everything.
I enjoy the tension and dominant male thing. Love her resistance to honor herself even if she's failing. Wishing it was longer and wished 3rd was already out
