This story is part of Harlequin's line of PNR short stories (marketed under the name of Silhouette Nocturne Bites).
Being that it's so short, there's really not much I can say that won't spoil the story, so I'll just stick with the fact I enjoyed it. 4 Stars.

I wish this had been a longer and more in-depth work. I was loving it up until those final few pages.

On the positive… it is a short read. Less than an hour. Bedtime story.
Negative… the sex was “eh”. And if you are going to write a book short on story you gotta go harder on the sex.
I read this book for the virgin hero. But he is somehow able to listen to her heart beat so he knows exactly what to do…. Including rubbing her… let’s call it an”goddess Pearl” while he is banging it out. How did her heartbeat teach him that little trick?
Innocence of virgin hero: 3/5
Innocence in losing it: 1/5
Build up to losing it: 1/5
Hotness of losing it: 3/5
POV: female
Busted touching himself: no

This is a very short story / novella. I enjoyed the writing and I liked the characters.
The thing that stood out the most for me was the very strong resemblance to the book, East of the Sun, West of the Moon by Jackie Morris.
East of the Sun, West of the Moon is an adaptation of a fairy tale. An 18-year-old girl lives in Alaska with her father and has grown up surrounded by polar baars. She loves to study them as much as her father and his Alaskian team. The heroine eventually meets the king of the polar bears and thus an adventure of fantasy, intrigue and romance begins.
You can hopefully get from my brief description of the Morris novel why the novella Moon Shadow reminded me of it. As with both stories, I'm not fond of stories that involve one character being immortal or lives much longer than a normal human. It kind of blows the romance out of the water for me. I can't close the book knowing that one character will stay forever young while the other will eventually grow old and pass on.
However, as said, I enjoyed the writing and I became very involved with the characters. I still would give it a thumbs up for fans of fantasy romance.
