Good Lord, it is 5 days since I made a post. Part was laziness, part was that there just hasn’t been much going on to report. I do hope that changes soon, though. This is the first New Series Alert post in a few weeks, and it looks like the fall reading lists are starting to pick up again.
This first one is actually a re-release from author Keri Arthur. Beneath a Rising Moon is the first book of the Ripple Creek Werewolf series.
Synopsis…
On the werewolf reservation of Ripple Creek, a killer is on the loose. Three women are dead, their bodies mutilated and faces slashed. A fourth, Neva Grant’s twin, lies in the hospital, fighting for her life.Psychically linked, Neva shared the horror of her twin attack and makes a silent vow by her sister’s hospital bed. She’ll hunt down the killer, if Savannah finds the strength to live.The Rangers believe the killer is a member of the Sinclair pack, but Neva knows the Sinclairs will never talk to an outsider. To begin the hunt, she first has to seduce a Sinclair–and then she has to keep him interested long enough to find the killer.
The only Sinclair not under suspicion is a wolf with a hard drinking, hard loving reputation. But has she got what it takes to attract a man with such experience? Neva doesn’t know, but for her sister’s sake, she has to try.Duncan Sinclair has been called back home to find a killer, and he wants nothing more than to complete his task and get out of the town for which he has no love. Then he’s approached by a wolf who obviously has more than seduction on her mind, and he finds himself ensnared in a growing web of desire and deceit.As the murders continue and the killer’s shadow draws ever closer, Duncan and Neva find themselves having to trust each other in order to survive. But can they trust the emotions flaring between them? Or will the lies of the present, the deeds of the past, and a killer’s bloody intentions tear them apart?

I have been looking forward to the next one since I first read the blurb way back when. Otherkin is the first book of Nina Berry‘s new series, also called Otherkin.
Synopsis…
I thought I knew myself. Then I met Caleb.
Dez is a good girl who does as she’s told and tries not to be noticed. Then she rescues a boy from a cage, and he tells her secrets about herself. Now inside her burns a darkness that will transform her.
Everything is about to change — and neither Caleb, nor the Otherkin, nor those who hunt them are prepared for what Dez will unleash.
The Otherkin reading list can be found HERE.
I’ve got Otherkin coming to me in the mail
Mine should be here soon, too. Funny, though, it doesn’t give me a YA vibe for some reason.
I know what you mean! When you first posted about this book, I thought by the cover that it was an adult book until I read the synopsis.
That was what I thought, too, especially since I think it is mass market paperback rather than hardcover or trade. Might be wrong on that one, but the price lines up for mmp. Hm, that would mean a new shelf…
