Hidden Moon
Description
A shapeshifting tale of dark secrets and redemption from the voice of New York Times bestselling author Lori Handeland.
Forbidden love? Simply irresistible . . .
Lake Bluff, Georgia, in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, was once my home. But when the bright lights of Atlanta beckoned, Claire Kennedy had to answer. I'd dreamed of working in a newsroom, like my mother, for far too long.
My father's sudden death brings me back. Definitely older, I thought I was wiser. So how did I end up finishing out my father's term as mayor?
A band of Gypsies arrives to perform at our Full Moon Festival, driving wagons as old and colorful as their ancestors, filled with animals both exotic and dangerous. They appear to have walked out of a bygone century.
Their leader, Malachi Cartwright is not only sinfully attractive but secretive and mysterious.
When my last relationship ended in a cruel betrayal, I swore off men forever. But this man may change my mind.
Then all hell breaks loose. Wolf howls are heard in mountains that have been wolf-free for a century. A tourist is mauled, then disappears. Magical runes marked with Nazi symbols are found at the scenes of further attacks. As an eclipse approaches, enemies are everywhere.
Is Malachi one of them?
Fans of Jen L. Grey, Tessa Hale, and V. Vaughn will be enthralled.

Marking her women's fiction debut, Just Once (Severn House, January 2019) is a richly layered novel about two women who love the same man, how their lives intertwine, and their journeys of loss, grief, sacrifice, and forgiveness.
While student teaching, Lori started reading a life-changing book, How to Write a Romance and Get It Published. Within its pages. the author, Kathryn Falk, mentioned Romance Writers of America.
