Full Moon Saloon: A Werewolf Romantic Urban Fantasy

Full Moon Saloon, the first installment in Aimee Easterling's Kira Fairwood Series, starts off with a bang and keeps on rolling. Full of action, it will keep you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end. The storyline is fast-paced and well written, filled with magic and mayhem, intrigue, subterfuge, pack politics, danger and light romance. The characters are well developed and engaging. Thom was interesting as an untrained alpha. It was great watching him learn more about his alpha status, and the power that it entails. Overall, a very enjoyable read. I am looking forward to more of Kira's story.

Wily heroine! She is much as you would expect of a young Kitsune. She does rely a lot on others to get her out of trouble but she is young & learns from each experience. Lots of action and shifting fun! Check out the audiobook, too! Great narrator that really brings Kira to life!

As always, Aimee Easterling reliably delivers fun shifter stories with exciting plots. This book was suspenseful and fun. It features kitsune, one of my favorite paranormal creatures (and one that doesn't get very much attention), as well as Ms. Easterling's delightful take on wolf shifters. And maybe a ghost. This is the first book in the Kira Fairwood series, and I am very much looking forward to the rest of the series. Many of these characters were introduced in the Moon Marked series, but you don’t have to read those first to enjoy this series. This relatively quick read started with a great hook and effortlessly captured and held my interest. It was fast-paced with an exciting, action-filled plot and several mysteries that presented some unexpected twists as our heroine Kira struggles to catch a killer while protecting her family and her human friend. I really liked the characters in this book. Kira can be impulsive, and her tendency to jump to conclusions and take actions without thinking things through often gets her into trouble, but that’s all part of the fun. Her first suspect, Thom, is a cinnamon roll hero, and I loved watching the two of them get to know and trust each other. I volunteered to review an advanced reader copy of this book provided to me by the author. If you like contemporary fantasy or paranormal mystery/suspense with a hint of slow-burn romance, give this series a try.
