Product Description

Product Description

Marinette (Nessy) is half vampire and half human. Fleeing her maker Hervidor, the strongest of their kind and the ruler of the underworld of vampires, Nessy longs to be able to live her life as she chooses. With vengeance in her heart for the coven Hervidor created, The Tellis Coven, she ventures into unknown parts of life that she has never seen or experienced.
Hervidor has kept Nessy locked away for centuries. His taunting and the tauntings of his coven have made Nessy stronger and capable of fleeing his grasp.
As she runs through the unknown woods with her thirst on high alert, she meets Charles and his coven. Their ways and teachings are shocking and exciting to Nessy, who learns to adapt so she can walk among humans during both day and night. Nessy quickly falls in love with Charles and they seal the bond that will link them together for eternity.
With the threat of Hervidor constantly at her heels, Nessy makes the final decision to stand and face him in the fight that will decide her fate. The Gulon and their own pack of cats become involved as Heracio (Hera), Nessy’s biological cousin, decides to impart to Nessy the many family traits she wasn’t aware of as a human. Nessy’s own self discovery becomes apparent as she too transforms into a Gulon creature. Nessy hands over the reins of the leadership back to Hera, the biggest and strongest of the Gulon. Long ago destined to become their leader, Hera claims the ownership is his by mutual right, mutual consent and adoration of his pack.
As Nessy tries to come to terms with the changes happening to and around her, she continues to slide on the path of love. Together, Charles, his coven, and Nessy make the final stand against Hervidor and the detested Tellis Coven in an effort to banish them from the earth. But can they succeed?

A great read 19 Jan 2012
Format:Kindle Edition
I must admit I've had this book for a few weeks now, but I'm so glad I've got around to reading it. The whole story is really great, the writing is excellent and the characters are well written. I loved this book from the word go, i found it entrancing and exhilarating. I loved Nessy and all the struggles she went through, both in her past life and the new life she is finding out about. I loved the choices she made and how she managed to get herself and others through them, her relationships that she formed were amazing, as well as the way she deals with everything that is thrown at her.
I cant wait to read the next installment of her adventures, as i want to find out what is going to happen next in Nessie's world.
I would recommend this book to people looking for a paranormal romance, with lots of twists and turns.

This is the third book that I have read from this author, previously reading her first two books, Vanquished and its sequel.

Much like the two Vanquished books, the thing that really stands out about Moon Rising is the author's ability to put across the character's emotions. You get a real feel for how the characters are feeling and the romance between Nessy and Charles is very well written. The author's descriptive writing is impressive, painting a vivid picture of events and giving the reader a strong mental image of the scene's in the book. The imagination with which the author describes each scene help add to the depth of the image she creates.

The story itself takes on the perspective of the Nessy character, viewing events from her viewpoint. Her conflicting emotions and struggle to deal with who and what she is, and trying to fit into the world around her, creates the backbone of the story, gripping the reader and giving an insight into her view of this magical world of Vampires and Gulons. The Gulon were an inspired addition to the story, taking it away from the usual vampire/warewolf battles. This new and interesting mythical creature intrigued me and I am looking forward to learning more about them in the future books in this series. The interaction between Nessy and Hera, the leader of the Gulon, is both touching and amusing. I particularly enjoyed Nessy describing Hera as cute, something that he would possibly have not been to pleased to hear given his fearsome appearance, but that added to the humour of their relationship.

The book starts slowly, building the picture of events that have lead to this point, but gradually the pace builds as Nessy comes under greater and greater danger as she is hunted by her maker, Hervidor. By the end of the book, the pace has increased and the action intensifies, without losing the description and emotions shown earlier in the book, and the book ends leaving the reader wanting more. Thankfully the sequel, Sunrise to Sunset, is already available and I have begun reading that.

If you like to read a good, descriptive book that shows imagination and doesn't try to conform with the other Vampire book out there at the moment then this is well worth a read. Top book from an exciting new author.
