Thunder Moon
Lori Handeland
St. Martin's
Jan
ISBN 0312949189
Urban Fantasy
****1/2
Grace McDaniel may have been forced to accept that werewolves exist, but she's still the epitomy of pragmatism. She had believed that the monsters were all gone, taken care of by the Jager Sachers, but now, something is killing people, leaving them heartless. Is it the new doctor in town? There is something odd about Ian Walker, to be sure, but she does not want to believe him, the man she is falling in love with, evil. Trying to prove him innocent, to stop the murders, stay alive, and keep Edward's blasted band of merry men and women out of her town, Grace will have to believe in more than she wants to and make sacrifices that would break any heart, even one as braced against sentiment as hers.
Ms. Handleland has created a stunning story that has just enough action, romance, and magic to make it one for lovers of all sorts of urban fantasy and adventure. The only bad thing about it is there are implications that the tales of the Night Creatures might be at an end, and I would severely miss Edward and company.

Hidden Moon - Lori Handeland's Night creatures
Hidden Moon
Lori Handeland
St Martin's
July
ISBN 0312949170
Paranormal
****
Claire Kennedy's tenure as mayor of Lake Bluff Georgia is about to become the most interesting of any mayor's in the sleepy town's history. The sudden appearances of odd wolves and Gypsies at almost the same time seems a little strange. Then, people who give Claire a hard time begin to disappear; is the handsome Rom who has taken a shine to her involved? Is there magic in the air, and is it black or white? Before Claire can find happiness, these questions have to be answered.
If you have missed the Night Creatures series, for shame. However, as each one can stand alone easily, you will have no problem being sucked into this evolving universe. Fans will take note that there is a new sort of werewolf introduced, one even Edward will not know how to deal with, once he arrives. It's wonderful to see that there is more to Ms. Handeland's realm than we knew, and now I want to see what's next.
