5.0 out of 5 stars And What A Kiss It Is!, October 2, 2008

By	BrooklynGirl (Brooklyn, NY) - See all my reviews

I read the first book by Ms. Kohler called Marked by Moonlight and could not get into it until toward the middle of the book. It took her a while to get the story going for me and I was not all that sympathetic to the male hero Gideon but I loved Claire. This book however suffers no such slow start. Kit March is introduced in MBM as Gideon's sister and in that book she seemed more of an annoyance to him. So much so that at times even he did not seem to want to take time for her. In this book, however, the story is solidly hers and Ms. Kohler has done a much better job of developing the story early on so that you understand Kit and get a pretty quick sense of what drives her and why she seems so solitary. However Kit has desires, and wishes and dreams of a normal future; of home, a man to love and children. Well, Ms. Kohler has wrapped up Kit's wishes in a big old christmas bow and calls it Rafe Santiago.

Rafe is originally sent to kill Kit because she is a rogue Lycan hunter and a female. Both of which are not tolerated by the two organizations that sanction the killings of Lycans. But from their first encounter you can see that Kit touches something in Rafe and it may not be so easy for him to eliminate her.

Now I won't reveal the plot twist but suffice it to say that the twist just makes the story jucier, the attraction more potent and by mid way through you are rooting for them both to find their way to each other and survive at all costs even when Rafe is forced to do something which may turn Kit's hatred on him full bore. The intimate scenes are hot, and there are enough of them to totally support the plot and the intensity of the characters. The Lycans who are on the hunt come across as sufficiently terrifying (if a bit too stupid). The one character who makes an appearance from the first book is a centuries old Lycan named Darius and I cannot wait for Ms. Kohler to put her mark on his story in a future book. I also very much appreciate the fact the this IS Kit's book and she has left Gideon and Claire out of the way (on vacation) and given the full stage to Kit, Rafe and the rest of the evil dead crew.

With this book Ms. Kohler has become an automatic buy for me and I look forward to her next effort and hope she can sustain the quality, sensuality and pace in her future work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Impossibly sexy, impossible to put down, October 12, 2008

By	Alyssa Goodnight "Novelist" (Texas) - See all my reviews

Kit March has made revenge her mission in life. After her parents were killed by lycans, she and her brother turned hunters of the bloodthirsty species. But being female, Kit's chosen lifestyle is prohibited by NODEAL (National Organization for Defense against Evolving and Ancient Lycanthropes), despite the willingness of the agency's local authority to look the other way. She's a rogue hunter, taking on the dangerous beasts night after night, all on her own. But with NODEAL being subsumed into EFLA (European Federation of Lycan Agents) and policies now being strictly enforced, Kit soon finds herself among the hunted. But not for the reason she thinks.
EFLA has sent its best agent, Rafe Santiago, unaware that he too is a rogue and an unknown quantity. With her identity released to the city's lycan population, Kit has little choice but to trust him or wind up dead. But how can she reconcile herself to her frenzied attraction to a man who's been sent to kill her? And how can she accept what he's come to tell her--about herself and her future?
Kiss of a Dark Moon is a thrill a minute, and the tension swings like a pendulum between horrific danger and urgent sex. A seemingly impossible romance, this dark, sexy paranormal is a must-read.

1.0 out of 5 stars Pathetic, juvenile heroine ruins it, March 8, 2009

By	N.W. Reader - See all my reviews

Kit should be the secondary character who is the foil for the heroine. She is so judgmental, immature, closed minded and self-righteous I can't stand her. Truly couldn't finish reading the book because I disliked her so much. I am so tired of author's who seem to feel that a woman has to be a complete bi*** to be strong.
