About this listen

An apple a day won’t keep this doctor away.

Linden Grove has always known that he’s not destined to be the next pack alpha. That position belonged to his brother Aspen - but then Aspen left the pack to join the military. When the unthinkable happens and the pack is left rudderless, someone has to step up and take care of it. Can a doctor go from “do no harm” to defending his own with his teeth and claws?

Colt Doherty is used to a certain kind of life. Glittering, picturesque, and...empty. As the youngest child of the country’s only werewolf senator, Colt has grown up in the spotlight, and he’s all too used to knot-headed alphas taking credit for the work of others, especially omegas like himself. When his editor sends him to write a story on the Grove pack, though, he finds something completely unexpected: Linden Grove in his unpolished perfection, as shiny and sweet as the apples his pack are known for.

A Grove pack omega has been kidnapped, and someone has to step up. The pack needs Linden to fill his father’s shoes, but no wolf can stand on his own. To save the day, sheltered Colt has to drop the politics and become the action hero he never thought an omega could be.

Black Moon is an 90k word standalone novel featuring one fiery journalist, one doctor with an obsession for hand knit sweaters, and the sweetest apple pies on the whole eastern seaboard, all bundled up in a non-mpreg A/B/O universe.

I like the world building and also the background that sets the mood for this pack. Linden is not the typical Alpha but he is kind hearted and had left his pack to study medicine. When Colt arrives as per Skip’s invitation, the attraction to Linden established. He is a reporter and with a prominent family. They might not be the stereotype for who they are in wolf world but they are a cute match and they are strong. I enjoyed the book. Hope to read the next one in the series soon. Great narration.

This stand alone novel is touching, sweet and action packed. The world building is great, and it looks like we might have the set up for a follow up as there is one huge loose end. I really hope so as Linden and Colt are adorable together and I’d like to spend more time with the Grove pack.

A good book, hope there's a follow up

Black Moon is the first book in the Wolf Moon Rising series, a shifter series with A/B/O terminology and dynamics but without mpreg and other traditional A/B/O tropes. The book does a great job laying down the foundation for the worldbuilding. In this universe, a mystery illness has affected the omega shifter population. No one knows what causes the illness, and so far, no cure has been found. At the moment, all the packs are just trying to figure out how to live in a world where omegas are so vulnerable and becoming rare.

Linden Grove, one of the alphas of the Grove pack, found his calling in pursuing the medical field and becoming the pack doctor. As one of the only pack doctors, Linden has worked to help the omegas in his pack with the mystery illness. His treatment seems to be the only treatment that has had any real positive effects in the world. This is one of the weak points in the plot. If omega health is so important to the shifter world, then it would make sense that more medical and science professionals would have been engaged in research. Besides that worldbuilding issue, the rest of the book was entertaining. The romance between Colt and Linden was slow at first, but once they acknowledged their feelings, it went full throttle. They had a few really steamy moments that heats up the page. There was drama, sassiness, suspense, and action throughout the book.

All in all, this was a decent shifter book that sets the stage for a new series. The audiobook was narrated by Michael Fell who did a great job. I found it very easy to listen to his narration and liked how he voiced all the characters.

A Decent Start to a New Shifter Series

I thoroughly enjoyed this book I found the story to be original with interesting storylines that captivated my attention from start to end. It is my first book written by Sam Burns and W.M. Fawkes and it will not be my last. They are gifted authors with a wonderful writing style, I love the fascinating world they created with equally fascinating characters. The characters are easy to relate to and connect with, I adored both leads Linden Grove and Colt Doherty, both are shifters, Linden being an alpha while Colt is an omega. Linden is the pack’s doctor, his father is the pack alpha and his older brother, Aspen, is next in line to take over, but he has not been home or hear from in a while so when the alpha is killing trying to save a pack member it puts Linden in a tough place. He does not think he has it in him to be the pack alpha. Skip, another member of the pack, wants the job despite not being very well liked. While the pack is mourning the loss of their leader, he calls a journalist to come to town on the premise of checking out the pack in connection with a mysterious illness effecting wolf packs though had ulterior motives for bringing him in. Colt is that journalist and he is no dummy or pushover, he reads right through Skip. Colt and Linden wind up clicking, Colt needed an alpha to attend to his heat and he asked Linden. I thought these two were great together and for each other. Linden had some insecurities about becoming a leader but Colt knew he could do it he just needed the right people by his side. This is a fabulous paranormal shifter romance, the story is cleverly plotted with plenty of drama, a touch of angst, some mystery, twists and turns and a slow burn romance. I am looking forward to finding out more about the “Condition” plaguing the shifters and what the cause is. Sam Burns and W.M. Fawkes, thank you for greatly entertaining story filled with awesome characters.

🎧📚🎧 And for the fabulous narration, Michael Fell is a talented narrator and voice artist. He brings these characters to life, humanizing them, giving each their own distinct voice. He does an outstanding job portraying the characters, grasping each persona, taking the role, making it his own, sounding believable and just as I picture them to sound. He sets the perfect tone for the story, captures all the character’s emotions and projects them into his performance. Michael Fell is an entertaining storyteller and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another great listen!

Great Story & Narration🎧 A Fascinating PNR!
