The beast inside will have its way, one way or another…Jade Sinclair is a top-notch investigator but one lousy werewolf. Her gift as a clairvoyant has allowed her to run a successful PI firm, where she’s taken on some of the most challenging cases, including a current murder mystery that has the vampire council breathing down her neck for answers. The only thing keeping her sane is the mating … the mating ceremony that will bond her to Adrian Kincaid, the love of her life.
But she’s never gotten what she wanted easily, not without a hell of a fight.
With his claim on Jade not yet sealed, Adrian is on high alert. He wants nothing more than to mark her and make her his forever, but when his temper gets the best of him, it puts him toe to toe with a dangerous opponent that could cost him everything that matters most.
Can they find comfort and happily ever after under the January Moon or will it tear them apart and leave them ruined forever?
Don’t miss this heart-pounding sequel to I am Jade.

Jade and Adrian must wait until the January moon to become true mates even though their human and wolf halves are inexplicably drawn to one another. But other alpha males are lying in wait, wanting their chance at Jade, and emotions are running high. When Adrian loses his temper and attacks the supreme alpha’s grandson, he can either face death or compete to win Jade under the January moon. As Jade races to stop a serial killer, she can’t let herself become distracted by the pack’s politics, or else she may not make it to the next full moon.
I love Jade’s character. She is such an independent and confident woman. She knows what she wants and she refuses to let anyone stand in her way. But the politics and hierarchy in the pack are at constant odds with what she truly wants. As a reader, I channeled Jade’s frustration as she tried to live her life her way, and constantly met opposition. She also feels so deeply due to her abilities and watching her emotions play out as she hunted for the serial killer created some wonderfully tense scenes.
January Moon ramps up the sexual tension and pack politics. Despite being an alpha’s daughter, Jade’s wolf recognizes that she must obey the supreme alpha, and he makes sure to put her into precarious situations. Jade has a fiery temper and doesn’t appreciate being backed into a corner. Combine this with a serial killer who continues to escape her and readers will find themselves immersed in a book filled with intense action as Jade fights tooth and nail to get what she wants.
I highly suggest this book for readers who enjoy strong female characters. January Moon has the perfect balance of action, romance, and suspense. The relationship portrayed has the perfect balance of wants and needs, making compromises for one another and weathering whatever storms may come. Adults only for this one though, as some of the scenes are pretty passionate.
I enjoyed reading the continuing story about Jade. Chapter 24 went too quickly for me, but I was pleased with the ending. This book ends in a cliffhanger so I can’t wait to read about what comes next for Jade and her mate. I was gifted this book in exchange for my honest review.
Thank you to Victoria Danes for sending me a finished copy of January Moon in exchange for an honest review!
I’ve been waiting for book 2 to be available ever since I finished book 1, I am Jade. If you enjoy paranormal mystery and romance, then I’d recommend this series. The romance heat level cranks up a notch or two in January Moon, but that’s expected after the events that happen and the romantic tension built up from book 1
The interweaving story plots Victoria Danes planned for January Moon really tied in her professional life as a private investigator to the drama and sugar honey ice tea stuff that’s happening in her personal life. I don’t want to give away spoilers if you haven’t read book 1, but the secrets Jade learns about her past are further explored in this book, January Moon. She’s thrown into a new world with new rules and new emotions in which she’s not sure she can control.
I look forward to reading book 3 of the Jade Sinclair series by Victoria Danes!!
