Into the woods…

Skylar Donovan comes to her late father’s Colorado cabin to find answers that explain his death. Instead, she meets a handsome Forest Ranger with a dark side, a stranger who appears in her dreams as something other than a man…

Werewolf Gavin was bitten by a monster in the hills he has sworn to protect and has committed his life to searching for the beast. Now Gavin must protect Skylar from the evil he is stalking – but the forbidden lust that burns between them might be the greatest danger of all.

It takes talent to keep creating heroes with whom I instantly come to adore, and Linda Thomas-Sundstrom once again proves she has this skill when she created Gavin Harris. A man who has dedicated to himself to helping others along with the environment, he also has the capacity to deeply feel emotions which influence his actions. From the moment he comes in contact with Skylar Donovan, a woman who is stubbornly gutsy, neither of them will ever be the same. Secrets abound in SEDUCED BY THE MOON, and revelations are startlingly imaginative.

When Skylar Donovan traveled from Miami to a secluded cabin in Colorado, her purpose was to clear out the belongings of her father after he passed away. Though his death was ruled an accident, she is skeptical and wants to discover more about the night he died. Being alone on the remote mountain is causing her mind to conjure up all kinds of explanations for the sensual dreams she is having every night, especially since the man in them is a werewolf.

Although Gavin Harris has followed a trail to the cabin where Skylar is staying and has caught her scent, the local forest ranger knows the tempting woman must be ignored as he is on the hunt for the creature that turned him into a werewolf after an attack. With the moon being full soon, Gavin worries about her remaining safe if the aggressive being focuses on her. He knows avoiding her would be best for them both, yet the pull to actually see her plus have a conversation is too potent. At their first meeting, Skylar recognizes him as the man in her dreams, and the wolf inside Gavin pushes him to be with her. But she feels that he is keeping secrets, ones she needs to uncover.

Original comes to mind when I think about a Nocturne book by Linda Thomas-Sundstrom. Her Wolf Moons miniseries has always been innovative in several ways, and SEDUCED BY THE MOON is even more groundbreaking than earlier releases. Whether it is related to werewolf traits and what happens when the moon is full, or if the subject matter deals with a new species, each piece of information is vividly detailed. All the hidden facts add to the suspense of what will take place when everything is disclosed, and several of the particulars are not like anything I have ever previously read. I was totally intrigued by the direction Linda Thomas-Sundstrom took the story.

The relationship between Gavin and Skylar is filled with enough sexual tension that just one touch could turn explosively intimate in an instant. While he does try to keep his werewolf nature concealed from her, there is no denying the beast in him along with his human side desire her. Skylar also feels drawn to him, and this adds fuel to their yearning for one another. These two know what they want from each other, and staying in control is not an option whenever they are near. Past occurrences greatly affect the circumstances they are now facing, and I became more nervous for them with every new situation they encountered. Gavin is someone who feels responsible for other people, and his feelings toward Skylar double his need to protect her. What is eventually divulged shocks not only them but also me. Linda Thomas-Sundstrom has written an outstanding paranormal novel. SEDUCED BY THE MOON has exceptional characters, fervent passion and back-to-back secrets.

Take a walk on the wild side with Linda. Anything she writes is sure to please even the hardest to please reader.

I truly loved how Linda portrayed Garvin and how readers actually saw his transformation. For me this was the best part of the book. Then to read how Skylar was drawn to Garvin but she did not know how or why. A perfect love story written for those who love true romance.

While reading I honestly felt like the story was more real than fiction. For me the romance, being drawn to someone else, and just knowing that the person is your perfect so mate made this a joy to read.

As always Linda wrote an original story that will carry readers on a journey with some wolfish adventure thrown in.

Thanks for another great read Linda.

The bunnies and I give this book 4 carrots

Welcome friends to another book in my Wolf Moons series . . . this time set in Colorado, where there's a FENRIS on the loose, and no one is really as they seem. (Fenris - the offspring of a wolf-god).

Skylar Donovan is the Rockies to go through her late father's things, but as strange things begin to happen there, she begins to believe that her psychiatrist father had secrets even his daughters couldn't have fathomed. Add in hunky ranger Gavin Harris, who might also have secrets, and the cool Colorado temp turns red-hot.

I hope you like this one.
Happy reading.

This is the best book in the series, can be read as a stand alone too. I like the other books, but this one was on a different level above the rest. I had so much work waiting for me and I couldn't stop reading. 5 plus stars

If you like hot, sexy werewolf action, steamy romance, and dangerous twists and turns, then READ THIS BOOK!!

This is the third book by Sundstrom I’ve read, and it’s by far my favorite. I read it in two days, some of it at 3 a.m. I know you die-hard readers can relate to that.

The main character, Skylar Donovan, is layered, complex, and relatable. Her past, and her future, drive her actions, making the plot and her relationship with Gavin believable. And just when you think you’ve got her family’s sordid history figured out, Sundstrom takes your expectations in a different direction.

Buy this. Read this. You won’t be disappointed.

A walk on the wild side!

Although this is not the genre I'm usually drawn to, I totally enjoyed this book. Just the right amount of nail biting thrills and steamy sexy scenes to strike the right balance and pique the imagination. I'm now a fan of Linda Thomas-Sundstrom and will look forward to reading more of her work.

"Thomas-Sundstrom combines interesting mythology and great character chemistry to make a solid read. Skylar and Gavin’s attraction is quite well-depicted, as is Gavin’s animal nature when he shifts" (RT Book Reviews, 4 stars).

Kept me guessing until the end...

Wow! Loved this book. In her search for answers to her father's unexpected and unusual death Skylar meets and immediately falls in lust with Gavin. A unique shifter novel with lots of twists and turns and a shocking discovery at the very end.

This story was so good.
Do you believe in werewolves or the supernatural?
Skylar’s dad was murdered by some unknown creature. She is at his cabin to pack up his things and search for answers. She finds out maybe her dad had some agenda to catch something of the supernatural. Skylar is also having dreams of an unknown man and these dreams are vivid. Who is this man she can’t seem to stop dreaming about.


Galvin is a wildlife ranger he is on the search for the creature that bite and changed him to the creature he in believes himself to be. He starts to feel this weird attachment to a new tenant in the cabin of a slain man. Come to find out she is his daughter. He tries to get her to leave but she is stubborn. He also can’t seem to fight his attraction to her. They can’t fight it and eventually become lovers?

Towards the end of this story their is a bid surprise. I did not expect this at all . We learn some very interesting things about Skylar’s family. I could not put this one down. I am seriously starting to love reading Harlequin books again.

This book was okay. I was a little disappointed with the premise and the characters seemed a little one-dimensional to me. Usually this author grabs me on the first page but it took about 6 chapters to really get into the book.

Let me first say that I am NOT, or was NOT a paranormal romance reader. Romance, yes! Paranormal, no way! However, Linda Thomas-Sundstrom changed all that for me. She pulled me in with her sexy shifters and let me tell you, she has me hook, line and sinker with Seduced by the Moon.

Colorado Rockies and sexy weres. What more could a gal need except for romance, suspenseful twists and turns and characters you can fall in love with? Well, Ms. Thomas-Sundstrom gives those also.

Once you open this book, you will not want to put it down! Buy it! Read it! Love it! I definitely did!

Wow. This ultra-sexy werewolf story set in Colorado made me hot for werewolves. I'm a fan of Linda's other wolf books, so had to read this one. Loved it, couldn't read fast enough, stayed up all night, (panting over the action), and the ending is a real thrill here folks!

Love and passion, duty and protection to survive and protect, but was stightly confusing, with all of the words that are in it to describe the different types of wolves. But other than that it was a good book.
