Adrian was one of the latest Harkness foster kids. She took in all the children whose parents loved them but could not handle their animal. She also took in the kids whose parents would not tolerate an animal around the house. Adrian’s company cast commercials. His assistant was Lucy. They worked out of Glacier Park. He went to Tarkers Hollow to cast a commercial along with Lucy. She was also ten years younger than him. He was also close to his 300 moon. This is when all Harkness kids came into their animals. Logically he knew why he shouldn’t like Lucy, but the heart and panther want what they want.
Come with Tasha on a ride of love, deception, and family as only she can tell it. I received this ARC book for a totally honest opinion.
A change has come to the Harkness spell but it doesn’t damper this series, the author always provides suspense & an exciting plot twist. I can’t imagine having that type of gift Lucy has but I sure do love her reading choices. These two are challenged as they try so hard not to mix business with pleasure, this panther won’t be denied & realistically age is just a number and does not always equal mature, lol. Adrian is passionate and determined to convince & encourage his mate into his way of thinking that a crush can become the real thing. Another exhilarating & captivating shifter moon phrase, sounds exotic…oh I can’t wait to read where the author takes this series to next!!!
Adrian Harkness is a panther shifter who is also a renowned director with a casting firm, Lucy Wren is a junior director for the same firm being mentored by Adrian. They both have feelings for each other but feel it is not appropriate due to their work relationship. While on a business trip their reservations take a hit and they end up sharing a small cabin with one bed. They are traveling to a remote area to do casting for one of their clients who want all-American looking actors in their commercial. The clients grandson comes to the casting and makes a racial slur about one of the actors. Adrian loses his cool and says a few things he probably shouldn’t to the client. After that things just start going wrong. Will Adrian stake his claim and will Lucy accept it? I love this book! If you are into shifters this is a must read. The characters are amazing and the story is original. This is book 7 of the 300 moons series and I love each and every book.
300 Moons. The spell that kept a shifter’s animal controlled for 300 Moons. Adrian is now facing the emergence of his panther. And dealing with his coworker. And a new threat. Each book of the series is a standalone but is more fun when read in order. Bravo! The characters are warm, intelligent, and protective, both the hero and heroine strong. The ending was unexpected but rates 6 stars on its own. I love the series (and the other books by Tasha Black)!
I received a free copy of this book via BookFunnel and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Another Harness kid Bites the dust!!!!
Panther shifter Arian Harness is just a day away from his 300th moon and meeting his panther, although he has met him in his dreams he’s afraid that he might hurt the woman that he has loved since the day he met her. Being 10 years older than her and her mentor has made it kind of hard to profess his love to her, keeping a hard facade around her, so as not to scare her away. But his panther just won’t give up on his mate and is just rearing to come out on his 300th Moon and let the fates decide.
Lucy Wren has always been infatuated and in love with her boss and mentor and he always keeps her at arms length, but the time has come to, if need be, throw herself at the sinfully sexy man if only for one night ikt will have been worth it.
A love that has never been acknowledged, sometimes it’s not good to keep things to yourself. Sometimes you have to take a chance on love.

All the children who came would have chores around the farm plus play and they were disciplined too. Every time a child came so did Gloria Cortez, everyone said was a witch but she
would sing whispering a song to them in a
soft voice that no one could understand, than hand them back to Kate saying “300 Moons”.

A copy of this book was provided to me with no requirements for a review. I voluntarily read this book and my comments here are my honest opinion.
Omg! Yes! “CRUSH This!” is another fan-freaking-tastic, fun and flirty contemporary romantic must read! It just happens to be set in the amazing magical world of ‘300 Moons’ that has shifters who we all love, and smoking hot, too 😉 This latest story is so magical that readers of other fiction genres will love it, too! Each new stand-alone has a fresh & unique storyline, great descriptions, with new & recurring characters so relatable, it’s like they jump off the pages! Add in some twists, and I was glued to my seat turning pages not wanting to stop! I even pre-ordered this last Fall in the US, to keep my own forever, so yes- I do highly recommend this & all these books to adult fans of fiction! BTW- I’ve already preordered the next upcoming book & can’t wait! But I will, that’s how awesome this author’s stories are!
