I loved this twist on Sleeping Beauty. This book had love and action. I couldn't put it down. Another great installment in the Shady Oaks series.

I expected to hate Scarlett who has been a spoiled, rich girl but I ended up loving her. She found this strength after being turned to a vampire. She finds a place where she feels like she belongs, she finds something that she's great at and a love that will make you swoon so hard.

I couldn't put this book down! I highly recommend it!

Such an awesome take on the vampire scene! If your life felt like it was in shambles and someone offered you a second chance...Would you take it? Well that's the dilemma that the main character faces until she meet a Brett. Them her world gets turned upside down! Oh my gosh...at one point it had me on the edge of my seat!!!! An then I was like whew! I delved into this book and was so happy I did. It's amazing! This book was great! I love a new idea of a family of captures that wasn't blood related. I loved the idea of turning those who needed another option. The pull between Scarlett and Brett was amazing. This book made me feel as if I could be part of their group ♡

Scarlett is at a point in her life where everything she knew was gone and everyone only saw her name and what her father had done. When she makes a choice to die she never thought of the other choice that was there. Brett is a vampire who is giving her another choice to die or live forever. When she makes her choice will she be able to live with all that comes with being what she is and what feelings she has for Brett and what feelings he has for her. And anything else that may come up and the others that live at Dark Haven. This book was amazing its a twist with a different look at vampires. Couldn't stop reading it can't wait for the next

I love a good paranormal romance and Moonstruck delivers!!!! M.A. Lee has given readers a great new spin on vampires in this novel mixed in with the romance of Brett and Scarlett but the fun doesn't stop there. There is drama and conflict, happiness and angst with lots of moments leaving the reader holding their breath and reading as fast as they can to see what happens next to these beloved characters. As always, this author creates characters that are relatable and face real life issues such as depression, jealousy, doubt, fear and of course, love. I admire her ability to create a world with people so the reader actually wants to stay there. Book one rocks!!! Can't wait for Book two :)

The second book in the Shady Oaks Series it it a short quick story, that held my interest until the end. This is a retelling of Sleeping Beauty with a great twist to it. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Scarlet was a broken girl. Family was a part of a big scandal, society turned their backs on her, her family did as well. She wanted it all to end. Brett came to her rescue. He gave her a chance at a new life, through death. It was a struggle between them but they finally realized what they meant to each other and gave in. Then a threat comes to the front door and her and her new found family must fight to keep what is theirs. It was a great book, lots of great characters who show her that her new life will be much more worth living than that of her old one. You will not be disappointed at all!!!

Shady Oaks is home to many supernaturals and among them are the vampire coven of Brett and his six friends. Starstruck (or moonstruck, lol) with the college student Scarlett, Brett has been watching over her, practically stalking her and her sad face for weeks. When the desperate and unhappy Scarlett wants to kill herself, Brett intervenes and offers to turn her. I really enjoyed reading their story but I'm sorry, I didn't see any fairytale allusions.

A nice start to a new series. Getting a second chance at life isn't always what you imagine. We get to know the characters at Dark Haven and a glance of who lives in Shady Oaks. Can't wait to continue on this journey.

1 star only ...
Why? Because of the animal killings in it.
I never can like a story with so much animal blood in it, no matter if it's a vamp or not.
Disgusting.

Wow this is the first book by MA Lee I’ve read and I have to say I really enjoyed this vampire romance, we follow the lives of several vampires but Brett is the character that this story centered around. When Brett spots Scarlett he can sense her sadness setting out to want her for hims when he catches her at a low point he asked her if she wants to have a better life once she answers everything Scarlett know no longer exists. This is a really romantic vampire love story hat flows well and once I started it I couldn’t put it down.
