“As a reader of most of the leading paranormal romance series, I can confidently say Tracy Tappan has earned a spot alongside JR Ward, Kresley Cole and the like. Can’t wait for the next one!”~Fan review“If you’re looking for a sappy, easy, cookie-cutter romance with sparkly characters or weak, virginal damsels… move along, human! This story is multi-dimensional from start to finish … Whether … from start to finish … Whether you’re a die-hard fan of the series already or this is your first time reading this author, you will not be bored!”
~ Fan review
Bound to the wrong mate… Crushed by an unforeseen enemy… Forced to become a person you were never supposed to be…
Recently promoted to the Special Operations Topside Team, quiet warrior Breen Dalakis is the least likely man to commit an unauthorized bite. But in a moment of blinding bloodlust, he bites and bonds with a new Dragon woman, permanently tying himself to a stranger. Now he must find a way to break through her seething rejection, but a lifetime spent skirting his emotions has left him stumped.
Wild girl Charlize Renault has never been in a long-term relationship, doesn’t want one now, and there’s a good reason for that—a deeply buried, secret reason. But when Breen disappears on a mission gone bad, Charlize’s emotional ghosts rise again. She’ll finally have to conquer her past if she ever wants to find true happiness with the man who has moved mountains to reach her…but the last time she fought her demons, they nearly destroyed her.

When I thought about the emotions evoked by this story, I realized that they run the gamut from soft to hard. There’s humor and there’s tears, there’s heart-pounding, breath stealing excitement and edge of your seat drama, moments of intense passion, some of heartache and more that will tug at your heartstrings. And although this tale is focused primarily on Breen and Charlize, there are side stories which will catch your attention and keep your interest level high. This is an exciting, fast-paced, engrossing tale that you will find hard to put down. The characters and storyline are so well-drawn and developed that, although this is part of an integrated series, you could easily read it as a standalone and still find it immensely enjoyable. But I highly recommend you read the whole series. It’s a fascinating world with unending facets that leave you hungering for more, for the next thrilling episode. I truly hope there will be more to come.
MOONRIDERS by Tracy Tappan
Moonriders is a continuation of the Community Series and this is book 4. I love this series, and this is no exception and might just be my favorite one. This is the story of Breen and Charlize. A more unlikely pair would be hard to find, but they come together and the sparks fly. This story also brings us characters from the first 3 book which I love to see old favorites in later books. It is like a visit with old friends. These 2 really earn their HEA. They go through so much on their way to finding each other. I do not like to give too much away, but urge you to take a chance with this one. You would not have to read the first 3 to enjoy this book, but would benefit from the backstory they bring.
The fourth book in The Community series and it takes place about 3 years or so after the previous book.
So in this book we catch up on characters from the other books and see how they and the town have fares. there is an introduction to a new couple who start out with a very rocky start. It is not the main part of the book though. I wasn’t really sure how I felt about them in the beginning but they grew on me.
This book is a set up for more things to come.
I just love this series!
Tracy’s unique spin on vampires is something so truly refreshing, especially if you’ve read your fill of the same ol’ vamps drinking blood, can’t go in the sun, blah blah blah.
True, Tracy’s vamps share some of these qualities, but the originality is just SO cool!
I’ll admit, I was not a fan of Charlize at first. At all. She sort of adopted the stereotypical “playboy” role of wham bam thank you, ma’am, no man will ever tie me down (figuratively speaking), etc. But I’m really glad I stuck with the book and enjoyed how Charlize changed her tune eventually.
Similarly, I wasn’t sure if I would like Breen either. He struck me as a bit of a pushover, maybe even a little aloof. But again, he sure proved himself and I’m super glad I was given the opportunity to read this latest installment of The Community series!!!
(I was given a copy of this book in consideration of my thoughts)
