Moonlit Diamond

Moonlit Falls #10

by Whimsy Nimsy

Hi, I’m Diamond! I am just your regular, pink-haired, candle maker who may or may not have been an ex-thief.

A few months ago, my fuzzy bestie, Frank, and I packed up our shiz and moved to Moonlit Falls, putting our pasts behind us. Until this hunky cop is at my door asking me about stuff that has been stolen. Now, while the idea of him putting me in handcuffs is downright delicious, I most certainly did not steal a thing.

Okay, okay, I didn’t steal anything recently… Now I need to track down a copycat to clear my name. If only I didn’t keep getting distracted by the three new guys in my life; the captivating Levi with eerie red eyes, charming Beau from New Orleans, and hunky cop Stone. Plus, Frank has been acting odd since he fell in his latte.

All the drama here in Moonlit Falls must be getting to me because I cannot figure out how the copycat is pulling off the heists. If I didn't know better, I would say he was using magic. Haha, just kidding! Everyone knows magic isn't real...

I have to admit that I'm usually one of these people growing a little bored when reading too many books who are a little too much alike. So, somewhere deep down I'm a little afraid that at some point I will read a Silver Springs or Moonlit Falls book and will think that it has been loads of fun, but more than enough. However, for some reason it seems that this moment never comes. I guess it's because every author brings something new and unique to the format.

Nimsy is a new author and this is their very first book and I can easily say that this is a lovely debut! The book is light hearted and loads of fun to read, but the book is not just that. The book also has an insecure woman who has given up on love and believes she is cursed. In a lot of ways it's amazing to watch her grow and learn and to see her rediscovering love and how beautiful and amazing it can be. Even though she might have been a thief, it's quite clear she's a nice and good person.

My favorite part of this book however are the guys. All those guys are different and unique and they really add something new to Moonlit Falls. I have to admit that a little more background on the guys, a few more moments of our main characters getting to know each other better, would have been nice, but it's at least quite clear that those guys are ready to handle this woman and to give her the exciting life she deserves.

And then there's Frank. Of course we already met Frank in previous books and although he's a spider, and I'm terrified of spiders, it's quite hard not to like him. He's funny, he's hyperactive, he has a few childlike sides and he's just very adorable. I can't promise poor Frank that I won't scream if I would ever meet him. However, including a spider shifter (that's not a spoiler, right?) is quite brilliant and especially a spider with a personality like this.

OMG this is so funny! Diamond opens her candle shop, drinks a pumpkin spiced latte and boom mates appear! Then the crimes start and poor Diamond is getting the blame, can she clear her name?? It’s got mystery, suspense, drama, love and it’s got a whole lotta crazy going on. Moonlite falls is incredible and I am loving these stories.

[Helle Gade · Rating 5 out of 5]

Oh I love this book!!! Dia and Frank are so fun and intriguing, add the mates, which are unusual sups, and you have a melting pot full of mystery and yummy yummy hotness.

I adore this universe. I highly recommend that you check out the Moonlit Falls series.

[Angela Denny · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book was soo much fun. Diamond is fun and quirky. She drinks the psl and ends up with four very unusual mates. Dealing with them is not her only problem. Someone is starling things and she is being blamed. Loved this book.

[Daisy Sauceda · Rating 5 out of 5]

Diamond, Frank, Levi, Beau and Stone.

Lets meet Diamond and her mates. So first off let me say that this one is by far my favorite. I don't think I laughed so hard in a while. Definitely NSFW, well when you have nosy co-workers they want to know why you are laughing. Who am I going to deny them a good laugh. Secondly, Diamond you are one crazy woman, reason why I say this is because you be carrying a damn spider named Frank. **shivers** Nope I would burn everything to the ground. Then you have Stone, Levi and Beau who are hot as heck. However, if I was Diamond, I would definitely be showing off the fact that Beau is my mate. Let's not forget the mystery going on with Diamond. Some mysterious things are happening around her and we don't know why. Then one day secrets are spilled and the stalker is revealed. Get ready for some laughs and a great story.

More fun in Moonlit Falls

This is another fun tale in the Moonlit Falls series. We've already met Diamond, her guys, and her pet spider Frank as cameos in other books, so it's great to finally get to know them properly. As always, I love to see the various ways humans react to learning about the supernatural world, and I can totally relate to Dia's reaction! The backgrounds we learn about all the characters are fascinating, and I'd love to learn more about those backgrounds - prequel books, please?

Brilliant!!!

I loved this story of finding your self and  facing anything that gets thrown in your way with one pumpkin spiced latte that will have Dia come out of her comfort zone and face four mates she never knew she had. I loved seeing a softer side of Stone and finally getting to meet his character but still just as grumpy as always when it comes to others, the lazy Levi who loves to read instead of trying to destroy the world and teasing the guys. A spider Frank with a hidden identity who i just adored with his little top hats and his chatter but I especially loved the suprice Dia got toward the end. Beau who changes his playboy ways and is surprisingly scared of a cat named mocha and a spider named Frank. Loads of funny moment like Garrett the carrot who you end up loving and the whole thong incident which was really funny but All in all a really good read.

Secrets

Can a thief catch a thief? Diamond and Frank retired from their life of crime but it appears that someone is trying to frame Diamond. That magical PSL shows Diamond her mates but alas she doesn't know about magic or shifters, how can she trust that they're being truthful? Can she catch the stalker thief? Will she accept what Liam, Stone, and Beau are telling her or will she turn her back on them?

[Amy Hannagan · Rating 5 out of 5]

Getting to book 10 to meet Diamond was so worth the wait! We had e few hints along the way when we met up with copper Stone in other books but now we know ALL about him. This book was really great. Totally worth the build of the rest of the series. I can't wait to see how the rest of the series shapes up now, as I'm hoping this is a 'best for last' situation.

[Lisa Bing · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is another super fun read for the series and I'm loving all the new authors I'm getting to add to my follow list ;D Diamond was a quirky, entertaining, fast paced and suspenseful read - and lets not forget the steam of a Moonlit Falls RH. Smokin' hot romance you can count on while giggling away over the antics, and phenomenal characters that you'd love to have for friends. I can't say enough about how much I'm enjoying this series.

[Lory · Rating 5 out of 5]

Absolutely hilarious and fun read I love a story of finding yourself and facing obstacles that get thrown your way. Also everyone needs a Frank in there life I'm just saying. With all the others crazy antics plus the steamy romance made for a helluva read. Can't wait until the next book in the series. As always my reviews are totally voluntarily and no monetary compensation was received and the opinions I have expressed are completely my own.

[Naurarwen · Rating 5 out of 5]

I have to say I'm not the biggest fan of spiders, but I absolutely adore Frank. He's so adorable in his little hats, and the relationship he has with Diamond. In this book for the Moonlit Falls series, Diamond is opening her candle shop, but things don't go exactly to plan when strange things start happening. That and the fact she drinks the drink that should be avoided in this series and ends up finding her mates, which she knows nothing about.

Diamond is quirky and fun, and she has a past that definitely intrigued me. Her guys are all unique in their own rights. As always there are lots of funny moments in this book, including one with poor Beau and a sink but that's all I'm saying it definitely had me cracking up.

This is another fabulous addition to the series!

3 stars.

[Jeannie · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great fun!

All the characters have such big personalities that you can't help but love them. This book has crazy, fun, love, suspense, a stalker and the kind of understanding that only your crazy ass family can have for each other! Loved it and I recommend you don't miss out on the fun!

[Jenni · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another great book

I love these books each one although a story in its own rights always includes characters we’ve heard of before. Therefore allowing us to gain a great knowledge of the town and characters too. This one so does make me giggle. I would however love to find out more about Diamonds and Franks back story. However her group of guys are a fun diverse bunch.

[Samantha Silensky · Rating 5 out of 5]

First and foremost, I love books that have pet companions that aren’t in the norm. Like snakes, spiders, what other people think are “creepy crawlies”, I love it. It is my favorite. I absolutely think you can’t call yourself an animal lover if you only love the cute and cuddly ones. So this book was already on my LOVE list, from the beginning. Just from the Frank Factor. The characters being completely different, and all being able to get along for diamond was heartwarming. Even when they butted heads. And their butting of heads just brought more comical relief to the story, as opposed to actual drama. I also loved the sassy AI Seb, and really wish I could get more backstory on how Diamond got Seb. This was a fun, quirky story that I’d absolutely dive into more of.

[Joy Whiteside · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book was such a great read that I finished it in one sitting and when I was done I was needing more. The characters are so real that you feel as though you know them and no matter what you cant help but love them. The story will keep you reading until the very end and you will probably discover that you cant put it down once you start. This book needs to be read, you will not be sorry that you did.

[Kellie Patnella · Rating 5 out of 5]

Loved it

Another wonderful addition to the Moonlit Falls series that had me entertained from beginning to end. Definitely recommend giving this book a read.

[Monique · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was such an amazing story! I loved all the characters, and getting to know Diamond (and Frank!) as well as the other guys. Dia is such a quirky character, but with some mystery… The story was hilarious at times, too. So pleased for Stone and Beau, and Levi of course. And so happy for Callie, too. A fantastic addition to the Moonlit Falls series.

[Jodi Kimball · Rating 5 out of 5]

Diamond's adventure is so fun! Frank is a hoot with all of his crazy antics, Stone and his ability to shut off other's magic, and Levi and his mysterious shift. Then throw in the copycat/stalker! I know these are all sort of standalones, but I really wish there was more time to flesh out the characters and their stories a bit more. All in all, good fun!

[Lexa · Rating 5 out of 5]

This series always makes me smile. This book was hilarious. I loved Frank and Seb. Frank I think is my favorite mate so far. Life is good for Diamond and Frank. They have left crime behind to open up a candle shop. Diamond is cursed, but she doesn't realize that. Any time she touches a man, they disappear. So drinking the PSL and finding her mates throws her for a loop. Thankfully one of her mates has a gift that can negate the curse while he is around.

I want to read more of these characters.

[Noemi · Rating 4 out of 5]

Diamond is an ex-thief-turned-candlemaker who lives in Moonlit Falls. When someone starts leaving her old thief business cards around town, Diamond starts investigating together with her newfound mates. I really enjoyed this story, especially because it had Levi. I can't wait to read more about Diamon and her guys, Callie and Garrett.

I was kindly provided with an ARC by the author, but I'm leaving a voluntary and honest review.

[Margaret · Rating 5 out of 5]

Totally darling. One of the best things about multi-author series is almost unlimited imagination and creativity. The book was a surprise in how fun and offbeat it was. The characters from other books show a different, more playful side and we get to meet some new faces too. Really hoping for a equal as I still want more.

[Doris · Rating 5 out of 5]

Diamond is trying to live a normal life with her pet spider Frank she moved to Moonlit Falls to start over and open a candle shop. She drinks a pumpkin spice Latte and boom she has mates. Stone, Levi, Beau and another you will have to read to find out who. Diamond has a stalker will she find out who and what they want with the help of her mates, or will her past catch up to her. This is a cute addition to the series and I enjoyed reading this and the bonus scene.

[Joanne Irving · Rating 5 out of 5]

Absolutely Hilarious and fun! Diamond is such a quirky ,fun girl. Everyone needs a Frank, my favourite character. This whole story was a entertaining romp. The connection between Stone and Levi is an interesting twist to the story. I love how Beau has his freakout over Frank! So,funny! I really liked the bonus chapter about Frank. I have found another author to follow. Definitely a wonderful read.

[Jacqueline Chappell · Rating 5 out of 5]

Fun steamy and quirky read. Loved Frank and his relationship with Diamond even in the other books in this series. The world building is really good and the characters are engaging and fun. Levi is an interesting one for sure. I’d love to see more from these characters in the future. There was a lot of room for growth in future stories. Definitely recommend.

[Angie · Rating 4 out of 5]

Love all the characters. It's weird that none of the story went into figuring out what Diamond is or what happened to her. Her guys are all sweet and funny, and I certainly want to see more of all of them. This was a sweet story that only teases at everyone's backstories. I hope we get to learn more.

[Cas ✨ · Rating 4 out of 5]

Overall another really fun installment to the Silver Springs/Moonlit Falls collection but there were a ton of loose ends and unanswered questions so I can’t give it the full five stars.

I loved Diamond; she’s kinda awkward, kinda naive, extremely sweet and almost everything out of her mouth (or internal monologue) is hilarious. I love that she’s a thief turned candle maker and that she takes the supes in stride. I *loved* Levi and how kinda crazy he is, since he’s an immortal near-god being. I also really love that we FINALLY get more about Stone. Poor dude has been a blip in everyone else’s books lol. Beau and Frank are good too, the beta fish thing was funny, Frank is a good spider name but … ick, spiders 😵‍💫

Lots of funny lines, the one big steamy scene was spicy af, but it was a little disappointing that it was only one scene. And then circling back to the unanswered questions, the biggest being: IS Diamond cursed? Are they going to fix it? Or is it some sort of weird power similar to Stone’s that forces people to shift? (Is she really human?) Were all the men she touched before shifters? What the heck was the testing facility Frank & Callie was from? Why was Diamond locked up for two years begging to be touched? (And why was Frank there and didn’t help her?) What’s the deal with Beau’s family? Why did Viola meddle with the weird carrot but then have zero involvement later? (Also why did she need six Galaxy themed penis candles?) If Callie had been the stalker/thief, why did she steal the fish and stuff to begin with? It’s such a weird thing to steal, especially putting out Diamond’s early calling cards? Also if she had access to Diamond’s early calling cards, has Callie been following Diamond this whole time since whatever even that involved them leaving the testing facility? How did Diamond & Co. not realize it sooner?

Millions of questions aside, it was a fun read. I would still recommend it to other Silver Springs/Moonlit Falls fans.

Sweet

Diamond and her men were unbelievably sweet. Despite my deep fear of spiders, i think I'd love to meet Frank. He was cute, yet fiercely protective of Dia and loyal to his core. Stone, Liam and Beau were all perfect for her in their own ways but i think the biggest surprise for me was Dia herself....she had this huge capacity to make the best of what ever was thrown at her. Little Garrett was the perfect example of that.....if youve read it you'll know who Garrett is and if you haven't i highly recommend giving these books a try. Each book in the moonlit series is by a different author and each one is better than the last. If you love RH romances you'll love these.

[Nora · Rating 4 out of 5]

Another story in the Moonlit Falls series. It all starts with a PSL as you know by now. This book can be read as a standalone but there are caracters cameo's so be aware of that. I've read all in this series and can say I enjoyed this one a lot. I love Frank, her fuzzy spider. Add in the cop investigating the missing items. Diamond trying to clear her name and Levi. Now the copycat seems to be using magic. But that don't exist now does it? A fun read for sure!
