давненько вампірчіків не було🤭
отже, ноа тікає від свого йобнутого (хтось здивований?) колишнього і потрапляє в містечко, якого немає на карті, і в нього попасти можуть тільки ті, хто цього потребує. ну і одразу ж він шукає житло, ну і звичайно ж одразу ж і знайомляться ноа та ксандер.
ксандер - вампір, який бачив сни про ноа, ще до того як вони познайомилися.
найбільший плюсик цієї книжки, що у двох чгг є домашні улюбленці котики(правда одна там трішки з пекла, але то таке). а в кінці навіть натяк на поповнення 🥰
чому в кожній книжці колишні якісь довбануті 🙂 тут оце зв'язалось з відьмою, щоб та повернула ноа та знищила ксандера, бо останній вліз в їхнє життя, послав йому смс про розрив з ноа, бо ноа якийсь слабак і не зміг би все зробити самотужки. від таких персонажів аж блювати тягне.
друзі-родина ксандера окремо в сердечку❤️ всі сподобались, а особливо харлан💞
починаючи з кінця 16 глави і до 18 включно, піздець шановні відбувається. я давненько так не переймалась за персонажів, але тут хепі-енд.
тут ще був моментик з вбивствами, але якось воно все швидко розрулилось з цим, зоча спочатку на них не робили якогось акценту.

Qué? Amigo, vamos por un 34% del libro y es imposible que ya estés locamente enamorado de él! Daaaaale🤦🏻♀️
No puedo con este libro, lo juro. Tenía muchísimo potencial y, de hecho, todavía me quedé con intrigas sobre lo que pasa en la casa/mansión de Xander, pero no puedo seguir (ni me voy a obligar a hacerlo). Gracias, pero no.

Like, broooo, we are barely at 34% of the book, there is absolutely no way you are already this deeply in love with him!
I just can't with this book, I swear. It had so much potential, and to be honest, I’m still intrigued by what’s going on in Xander’s mansion, but I cannot keep going (nor am I going to force myself to). Thank you, no.

Mysterious town- MM- Vampire X Human - Cat daddies -finding oneself after a controlling relationship - touch him and 💀
I thought this was well written, the world building was good and not too complicated, I really enjoyed this authors take on Vampires and how they lived, turned and had different skills/magic. Loved the involvement of the cats and their interactions. Enjoyed the overall plot and would continue this series if it followed the members of his colony.
My only irk was the amount of time Noah spent giggling 🙃

ARC REVIEW
A hot vampire, a cute ginger mate, and two adorable cats? Say less, I'm already in. The cover alone had me interested from the moment I saw it. Anything with cats on the cover immediately gets added to my TBR.
Noah is trying to move on after leaving his ex behind, traveling with no real destination in mind. When he arrives in Moonfell, he feels an unexpected pull to stay. Xander, who has been sensing Noah for far longer than Noah realizes, finally tracks him down at a gas station, and that's where everything starts. I won't spoil the rest because it's definitely worth experiencing for yourself!
This book was such a fun read and exactly what I was in the mood for. I adored Noah and Xander together, but the supporting characters were just as memorable. The vampire cast has so much personality that I found myself wanting to know more about all of them. 😭🥹

As always, no spoilers.
OH I FUCKING LOVED THIS. It gave me everything I wanted and then some. Both MMCs were perfect. Loved Noah and Xan so much. I feel like you always get grumpy brooding vamps and he ended up being a bit of a cinnamon roll and I loved it. Noah was a great character too. Little nerdy but bubbly and spicy. The two of them together is *chefs kiss*. Then we had the fur babies. Nyx and Pumpkin. Ugh. 10/10 on them both. Love me a short king going after his laaaaadyyyyyyy. Really loved the storyline, all the side characters we meet (please tell me Cole, ty, and Ambrose end up in a throuple… im manifesting this). Xans “family” is so great as well, i hope we get all their stories. I really need Milo to get his HEA and I want to read about him so badly.
Again. For me, this was a perfect read. The vibes were there, the plot was there, the spice was there, the banter, the sweet moments, the characters. Love love loved it. I cannot wait for all the others in this series.

I wanted to like FANGS & FUR so much because I love vampire and MM romance but the writing was really holding this back for me. The writing voice itself was fine but it all just felt very surface level and Noah doesn't question anything that's happening even though it's all so strange. I mean talk about terrible survival instincts.

What a fun read!! I enjoyed this book so much. Noah and Xander were adorable and a little kinky 😉 It was such a quick read and I hope there will be more of Moonfell. Also S/O to the kitties. The real stars. 🌟😂 Thank you so much for this ARC.

Content Warnings at the end of the review. Major Spoilers included in review.
The book started off strong. I enjoyed both characters and liked the fact that they became roommates quickly and started their relationship.
That being said there were a few things I struggled with. Xander was so overly fascinsted with Noah. He acted like Noah giggling was the most awe filled thing ever. Very common attributes(singing, smiling, laughing) all the sudden made Noah magical in Xanders eyes. I do understand why Xander would be fascinated with Noah since he’s his mate it just felt like a little much. I’d love for Noah to have some interesting quirky qualities that would actually cause Xander to stare at him in adoration. The qualities he was displaying were normal things.
It was a little frustrating how ditzy Noah was. Xander left a clear list of rules that Noah kept forgetting about. He’s a walking hazard lol. I was glad Nyx was there to keep him safe. The scene with the hands trying to drag him to hell was super spooky.
I kind of struggled with the fact that Noah was TERRIFIED his first night sleeping in Xanders home. All the noises and ghosts and then all the sudden he was so at home there? I guess it can be explained by his closeness with Xander but still.
The coffin was a fun touch although I did have a hard time picturing a coffin large enough for two people. Would love a visual of that.
Okay when Noah found out about the supernatural world, he didn’t even ask what Tyler was? Like he saw Tyler have a seizure and speak a prophecy but didn’t think to ask Xander about it for days? Just felt a little odd.
The monster was super gross and scary sounding. I liked that it was a unique creature though. It made the monster even scarier since it was unpredictable. I don’t quite understand why the monster killed two random people not even connected to Noah or Xander. If Xander (or Noah) was who he was after why did the monster kill others? The MCs didn’t even interact with the two people so it wasn’t like they smelled like them.
I have to talk about the end scenes. I was SOBBING when Noah died. SOBBING. I kept waiting for him to come back and it wasn’t happening. Now spoiler he does come back but it takes so long. Poor Xander has such a raw grief. Then of course Noah comes back. But I still don’t really understand how that happened? Like Nyx and Pumpkin found him? Where? In hell? Like did he deserve to go to hell? So confused.
Then literally 5 pages later they were having sex. Like my tears hadn’t even dried yet😭
I think this story does have potential. The vampires were different and had unique powers. The creatures were spooky and unique as well. The writing can use a little work and various plot holes need to be filled but overall I’d read the next one. For this to be a debut it wasn’t bad.

I was scrolling on my Kindle, mindlessly looking for interesting books to buy, when this cover captured my attention: "An M/M romance with cats? Cute!" I opened it and then I read it was a romance between a Vampire and a human? I was sold! And then I saw "pre-order". Good thing it came out 2 days later 😂
Anyway, this was a read I immediately dove right into the moment it was available on my Kindle.
I have a few "guilty pleasures" when it comes to romance books:
1) I love love at first sight and immediate tension between the 2 characters. No slow burn shit for me. Give me all the sexual tension from the start.
2) Vampires. Yup, that's it. A vamp somewhere in the relationship and I'm a happy guy.
3) A perfect mix between lovey dovey fluff and straight up kinky stuff.
And guess what, this story has it all! Noah and Xander are the sweetest couple I have read in a long time. But when they go down, they go down HARD. The last scene was 🥵
Then, the 2 cats were so funny and heartwarming, with Pumpkin head over heels for Nyx 😂 Pumpkin definitely was the clingy one of the 2 cats.
The story was great too! Even though there weren't any surprises for me and I saw things coming, it didn't take away from the story and I still loved it!

NOAH & XANDER!!!
I loved this book! It was fun and sweet and spicy and had really great pacing. I struggle sometimes in books when the conflict is purely self created, so I love that Xander waited literally two seconds and was like “here is every supernatural secret also we are mates”. Like, yes please! Communication! Noah and Xander were just a really great match with great chemistry, and I love that they had some special interests in the spice department. 👀
I am a huge sucker for found family and I’m obsessed with all the other characters in this one; I need more books in this series yesterday. Tyler & Cole… & Ambrose?? Harlan & Cassian? PLEASE?!?!
PUMPKIN & NYX!!! The cats in this were the cherry on top of this book, and then they went and mated and had little hellcat kittens and my life was changed. So adorable!
Highlights:
1. Do not walk past the garden pond after dark. Ever.
2. If Nyx sits in a doorway, you wait until she moves.
3. If someone knocks on the front door three times, do not answer it.
4. If you hear someone in the kitchen between 3–4 a.m., you didn’t.
Heading down the stairs, I smile to myself as I catch Noah’s whisper. “Please don't be a dream.”
I smile down at the creatures and wonder if Pumpkin is aware that his girlfriend is a badass demon Hellcat who fights evil spirits. I doubt it. He’s a little slow in the whole ‘awareness department’.
“I want you more than the clouds want rain. More than trees want sunlight. I want you more than the mountains…” “Yeah, yeah. I get it, you’re a poetic, 18th-century, Shakespearean old man.”
“I’m yours,” I promise. … “My sweet, little mate.” He kisses my jaw. “I will cherish you for eternity.”
“Congratulations, you’re cat daddies.”
His body is still dead, but his soul is alive.
“You’re going to run for me, little mate.”
“I have loved you before I even met you. And I have fallen so incredibly deep in love with you every day, and I never plan to resurface. Eternity is a long time, but I plan to spend it with you. Noah, my wonderful, talented, and perfect mate. Will you marry me?”

Review of advance copy received from Author
I absolutely loved Xander and Noah's story.
The book follows Noah as he moves to a strange new town, seeking a fresh start after ending a bad relationship. Enter Xander, who becomes both his landlord and roommate. Noah is honestly the sweetest character and deserves every good thing in the world. He also has a cat named Pumpkin, who deserves all the nice things, too. And while we're talking about cats, can we take a moment to appreciate how adorable the cat storyline was throughout this book?
Back to the romance.
This was a low-angst, incredibly enjoyable read. Noah is hilarious, and Xander and his family had me laughing constantly. Alongside the romance, there's an underlying mystery as Noah finds himself at the center of increasingly dangerous events, with bodies continuing to pile up around him. I had so much fun trying to figure out who was behind it all.
I loved the relationship between Xander and Noah. It felt natural, and one of my favorite aspects of the story was how Xander helped rebuild Noah's confidence after everything he'd been through. The connection they built through the story, through small gestures between them, was a real highlight. Did I mention that Noah is amazing and deserves everything nice?
This also wasn't your typical vampire romance. The vampire elements actually played an important role in the story rather than simply existing as a label. The only spoiler I'll mention is that I thought the way the vampires sleep was absolutely adorable.
I definitely did not expect the ending, but I loved it. Even knowing there was going to be a happily-ever-after, there were several chapters where I was genuinely nervous about how everything would work out. I started this book and finished it on the same day because I couldn't stop reading. I needed to know what would happen next.
The ending also does a fantastic job of setting up the next book, and I'm excited to see where the larger story goes from here. For a debut novel, this was an incredibly strong start, and I'm looking forward to reading more from this author.
And before I forget, the spice arrives early and delivers. Very good.

This also wasn't your typical vampire romance. The vampire elements actually played an important role in the story rather than simply existing as a label. The only spoiler I'll mention is that I thought the way the vampires sleep was absolutely adorable.
I definitely did not expect the ending, but I loved it. Even knowing there was going to be a happily-ever-after, there were several chapters where I was genuinely nervous about how everything would work out. I started this book and finished it on the same day because I couldn't stop reading. I needed to know what would happen next.
The ending also does a fantastic job of setting up the next book, and I'm excited to see where the larger story goes from here. For a debut novel, this was an incredibly strong start, and I'm looking forward to reading more from this author.
And before I forget, the spice arrives early and delivers. Very good.

From the most adorable orange kitty named pumpkin to the hell bound kitty Nyx, Noah and Xander go through a world wind as they discover how powerful their attraction to each other really is. They would do anything to save each other. But is loving a monster really worth everything that comes with it? Even when Noah has the potential to become one himself?

4.5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐✨ | 5/5 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
Disclosure: I received a complimentary Advance Review Copy (ARC) of Fangs & Fur by Kennedy Esther in exchange for an honest review.
Fangs & Fur is a compelling entry in the Moonfell Vamps Series that offers a unique spin on vampire lore. While many paranormal romances rely on familiar tropes, Esther introduces a distinct set of supernatural rules and vampire "specialties" that felt fresh and engaging.
The story follows Noah, a man running from a toxic past, who finds sanctuary in the mountain town of Moonfell. His new roommate, Xander, is mysterious, protective, and unmistakably supernatural. As danger begins to brew in the forest, threatening Noah specifically, Xander must embrace his own nature to save the man he is quickly coming to obsess over.
The chemistry between Xander and Noah is high-octane from the start. This is not a slow burn; it is a fast-paced, devoted romance featuring high heat and an intense, possessive bond. I particularly appreciated how Esther handled Noah’s journey from a traumatic, abusive past toward a supportive found family. While it was difficult to read Noah’s timidity around his past abuser, it provided a realistic, grounded look at the lasting effects of psychological manipulation. The emotional stakes are high, and the tragedy woven into Xander’s long history is genuinely heart-wrenching.
With spice that could cut glass and a deep focus on found family (and plenty of fangs!), this is a solid paranormal read. The ending felt a bit abrupt for my taste, leaving me desperate to know more about the side characters—particularly the intriguing Harlan. If you love possessive vampire romance and high-heat tension, this is a great addition to your TBR.

Here is "Fangs and Fur" by Kennedy Esther. It's the first novel in the Moonfell Vamps series.
["Noah is running.
From a toxic ex, and from a life that never felt like his. So when a single roommate listing appears in a mountain town he’s never heard of, he takes it without question.
Yet it’s his roommate, Xander, who’s mysterious in ways Noah can’t explain. He works strange hours, disappears before sunrise, and is entirely too attractive to be considered human.
Beyond Xander’s charming looks and Moonfell’s cozy cafes, something is wrong. People are going missing. Lurking in the forest, darkness is brewing.
It’s hunting Noah, and the scent of his soul.
To save him, Xander will have to face his greatest fears.
And Noah will have to decide if loving a monster is worth becoming one."]
Insta-lust. Insta-love. Insta-cat-bffs. Insta-vampire-mansion-vibes. Insta-creepy-shadows (and not the fun kind).
These two were sooo soft with each other. Their love story was easy and wonderful. They communicated, they checked in, they constantly reassured each other. They were protective without being over the top. They were sassy and sweet. They build a home, a family.
They also fought evil. So there's that. A few different kinds of evil. I didn't cry, you did (no, I sobbed).
I canNOT wait for more! All of these vampires will fall in love?! Yes please. I also am going to need a Tyler/Cole HEA, just saying.
Trigger Warnings: toxic exes, threats, violence, homophobia, murder, and more.

This was a solid read for me — one I liked quite a bit, but didn't quite love.
The story follows Noah, who is running away from a toxic and abusive ex. He ends up in Moonfell, a hidden town full of supernatural creatures — vampires, werewolves, witches, you name it. The town is warded by magic and doesn't show up on any map. Only supernaturals or their mates can find it. Noah ends up lodging at a mansion that belongs to Xander, a 200-year-old vampire. Xander is incredibly gentle and attentive with Noah — makes him food, brings him coffee, gets him fresh linen and toiletries. Noah, who has never been treated with this kind of care (not even by his own family when he came out), falls hard — first for Xander's looks and then for his kindness. When Noah's life is threatened, Xander calls his coven and together they protect him.
Where the book lost me was the reason behind the threat to Noah's life. It just didn't make sense that someone would go to those lengths to harm him or Xander. The plot logic didn't hold up for me and that's what kept this from being a book I loved.
But the highlight? THE CATS. Xander has a hellcat named Nyx — almost the size of a Great Dane, kills demons, and is an absolute badass. Noah has an orange tabby named Pumpkin who is completely smitten with Nyx the moment they meet. They are the cutest pair and honestly I wanted so much more of them. 😍
The world building here is very different from any vampire book I've read before and that was a genuinely welcome change. Overall, a one-time read for me — enjoyable, just not one I'll be revisiting.

Obsessed! That is the first word to come to mind when thinking about this book! 10/10 no notes! I devoured this book in one sitting. This book has a little bit of everything I love from a toxic ex, longing, found family, motorcycles, possessiveness, mystery, a haunted house, fast burn… with teeth, some
bondage, cat couple, cat daddies, and a HEA. I was cracking up one minute, then fanning myself in the next. Noah and Xander and freaking adorable! We meet Noah after leaving his ex traveling with no destination in sight. He comes to a Moonfell, feeling drawn to stay. Xander has sensed Noah forever, finally he tracks him to a gas station and the story begins! You will have to read to find out more! This book was everything I needed. I cannot wait to get more from the supporting characters/vamps. I need books for all of them but especially Harlan, and Milo❤️🩹❤️🩹 I also don’t want to forget to give a shoutout to my favorite cat couple Nyx, and Pumpkin! Thank you Kennedy for trusting me with reading your debut, I loved it 🖤🔥
There were so many good quotes throughout this book, but this was one of my favorites.
“I have loved you before I even met you. And I have fallen so incredibly deep in love with you every day, and I never plan to resurface. Eternity is a long time, but I plan to spend it with you”.

ARC REVIEW
I loved, loved this book ❤️❤️❤️
This story has everything:
✨ Vampires 🧛
✨ Fated mates 💕
✨ Witches ✨
✨ A vampire colony (aka one giant, slightly chaotic
Supernatural family)
✨ Mystery 🔮
✨ Cats with better love lives than most of us 🐈⬛
After escaping an abusive relationship, Noah packs up his two suitcases, grabs his cat Pumpkin (we love a cat dad!), and hits the road. Fate leads him to Moonfell, a hidden paranormal town filled with supernaturals.
Desperate for a place to stay, Noah ends up renting a room from Xander, a 130-year-old vampire who lives in a mansion that screams haunted nightmare but also my dream home 😃
For Noah, it’s instant infatuation. For Xander, it’s finally meeting the mate he’s been waiting over a century for. Talk about patience 🙈
And even Pumpkin gets lucky! He finds his own soulmate or should I say hellmate in Nyx, Xander’s hellcat. The kitty love story was adorable 😻
I absolutely loved the Colony and the family vibes among the vampires. They were protective, chaotic, and completely lovable. Harlan was 600 years of chaos 😂
This world has so much potential, and I’m already impatiently waiting for the next book. If you love paranormal MM romance with vampires, fated mates, mystery, family, and a healthy dose of cat matchmaking, you need to pick this up. 🖤

Let me tell you… The sexual tension with these two was palpable. Xander and Noah had it bad for each other from the start. As soon as Xander held pumpkin “ Noah’s cat” he was a goner. Then seeing Xander with his “cat” Nyx was just icing on the cake because who can resist a big sexy man “vampire” who is also a cat Dad? Xan is boyfriend goals x1000, he cooks, loves cats, rides a motorcycle, is hot AF, and kinky. Noah never stood a chance lol. Life isn’t all sunshine and rainbows, however for them because someone is trying to stop them from being together in the worst way. But with a new supernatural found family they make it work. This is only the start of their very happy life together and you will definitely love how they celebrate their newfound relationship. So if you love the supernatural, cats, fated mates, kink, and happy endings then I recommend you read this book. I enjoyed every minute of this book and will absolutely read more by this author. I want to think the author for letting me read this in advance.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
One of my favorite things about this book was the vampire lore. There are so many vampire books out there that a lot of the details start to feel the same, but this one managed to make them feel fresh and unique. I loved all the little details and characteristics that made these vampires stand out. This book was exactly the break I needed from all the dark reads I’ve been picking up lately. While there are a few heavier moments, it’s overall a fluffy, heartwarming, and deliciously spicy vampire romance. The unique vampire lore adds so much charm, but Noah’s personality was really the cherry on top. He’s sassy, shy, and completely lovable, and Xander complements him perfectly. Their chemistry was everything I wanted and more. And don’t even get me started on The cats they immediately stole the show. Pumpkin and Nyx might be my favorite book pets ever. Pumpkin and his big, scary hellcat girlfriend had me laughing the entire time. 🤣Did I immediately reread this ARC because it was that good? Yes. Yes, I did. I refused to admit their story was over, which is exactly why I had to experience it twice. Thius was the perfect mix of humor, romance, spice, and heart, and I enjoyed every second of it. 🖤📚🦇✨

I really loved Noah and Xander and how they finally found their way to one another after Xander spent so long scenting Noah on the air and waiting for his mate. It killed me that Noah was on the run from his terrible ex, and how his parents had rejected him for being gay before that, how he had no one. I love how Xander finally gave him a soft home to land in after everything he had been through. I loved how these two found each other and were finally happy.
I felt like things moved a little quickly throughout the book. I would have liked to spend more time with Xander's colony, and I really hope they're all getting their own books, because I'm already obsessed with them (especially a Cole/Tyler/Ambrose story, please and thank you). I loved Pumpkin and Nyx, that was so fun and adorable. I loved Noah and Xander being cat daddies and how great the four of them were together.
The creature coming after Noah had a lame and predictable cause, but it still made for a formidable villain, so I appreciated that things weren't that simple. I loved Tyler and how he befriended Noah (though that also felt a little fast, especially since they just barely met). Overall, I enjoyed this story and all the characters and would love to read about more of them.

Is loving a monster worth becoming one?
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Fangs and Fur follows Noah, a human who gets a free room in a supernatural town and ends up living with Xander, a gorgeous vampire (bonus: they’re both cat dads!). Noah quickly finds himself caught up in a mystery involving strange deaths and a terrifying creature that seems to have been created specifically to hunt him
I really enjoyed this one! Xander was such a sweetheart and an absolute gentleman, and I loved seeing a male love interest who was actually kind and caring from the start. I also loved the supernatural town and all the different creatures and abilities, especially Nyx, Xander’s Hellcat, who is much stronger than she looks. The mystery surrounding the deaths kept things interesting, and there was plenty of action alongside the romance. Some things felt a little rushed and convenient, especially Noah's acceptance of the supernatural and how quickly the romance progressed, but it didn’t detract from the story or my enjoyment of it
Overall this was a cute yet spicy read! It was a good palate cleanser for me and I definitely suggest this for anyone interested in a paranormal m/m romance with a side of mystery

Okie dokie. Where do I start with this book? Honestly, I loved it. It had some darker themes although it's not described as a dark romance nor is it a dark romance but it's got some gory details and a little bit touch him and d!e moments, but it was pretty endearing with a bucket load of instalove and mutual obsession. There are cats who give off main character vibes (definitely need a novella in the future), found family with paranormal tendencies and a narcissistic psycho ex-boyfriend who needs lessons in reading the room. This human x vampire romance had a lot of great qualities, the world building, side characters were awesome, there's mysteries that have you questioning about them which may be in future interconnected books, and I look forward to finding out more! A great paranormal MM romance read, with just over 230 pages, fast-paced, mysterious, a fun book with a glittering over gory moments. Check out the trigger warnings before reading, and go show the author some love because I'm pretty sure it's their debut! Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to read your book early! It was amazing!
