Kel O’Conley, DVM, treats supernaturals and their pets. Where else can a witch take a talking familiar for vaccinations or vampires get a stake removed? Kel wants experience in her field before returning to her pack. She’s fought tooth and claw for her dream and nothing will stop her. Until Tavis Alger, Heir to a rival pack, appears at her clinic with a gravely injured werewolf. Accustomed to … obedience, Tavis doesn’t know how to handle Kel–except in the bedroom. She completely disregards Tavis’ title, but remains his packmate’s best chance at survival.But Tavis’ Alpha doesn’t trust Kel and swears a blood oath: Should the injured werewolf die, so does Kel. To save herself, Kel proposes a political mating with Tavis despite their bickering. She didn’t expect their white-hot attraction or developing feelings, but when more supernaturals are targeted, Tavis and Kel must work together or lose everything.

Kealen, otherwise known as Kel, treats supernatural beings while studying at veterinarian school. She’s an heir to her father’s pack living in a rival pack’s territory. She treats the rival pack if they get hurt and she’s allowed to stay. If they knew she wasn’t barren, like her cousin told the Alpha she is, they’d be on her like fleas on a dog. When Tavis shows up one night at her clinic’s door with an injured werewolf, her life changes forever. She tries in vain to save the dying werewolf but the stakes are ratcheted up a few notches when the Alpha swears a blood oath. If the werewolf dies, she dies.
Tavis is instantly drawn to Kel but fights the attraction. She’s barren, isn’t she? When his Alpha swears a blood oath, Tavis protects her at all costs. She fights him on everything from how she mates to how she conducts herself in public yet he yearns for her. She’s his mate and he’s hers. All that changes when more werewolves are targeted by hunters hell-bent on exterminating supernaturals. When the hunters capture Kel, he’ll risk everything to rescue her. Will he make it in time or will he be too late?
I love paranormal romance, especially when it comes to werewolves, and Moonsworn is one of the most original ones I’ve read. A female Alpha heir? I’ve never heard of such a thing but I’m an instant convert. Kel is strong, fearless and her own woman. Matching her up with another Heir equally strong is brilliant on the author’s part. I want more!
I was hooked from the very beginning and the plot sped along at a quick pace. The action scenes were intense, especially when it came to chasing after the hunters. The romance scenes were hot and the romantic tension between Kel and Tavis gave me all the feels. There’s some heartbreaking scenes, which I won’t divulge, but made me an emotional mess.
If you’re looking for a paranormal romance with a new twist on werewolves, pick up Moonsworn today. I can’t wait for book two!
My Rating: 5+ stars
This is a good book to read. It is slow to get to the point and there is a a lot of back story to digest. But it written well and the characters are solid.
okay Moonsworn was okay but I have to say I have read so many better written and more engaging shifter books, I found Moonsworn to slow at times that I had trouble keeping my concentration and honestly if a book doesn’t grab me straight off I don’t always finish it but I pushed myself with this one hoping it would get better but it really didn’t.
While I liked the alpha female I still found her confusing and hesitant at times and Tavis again he was only what felt like a part-time alpha. the storyline felt like it was missing gaps int he plot and the ending really didn’t feel like and ending it felt unfinished.
There was no continual flow for me.
On the plus side, I did finish it.
Absolutely loved the strong female and male main characters and how they interacted with each other and others. A well thought out plot with intriguing twists, angst, romance, and action. I found myself totally immersed in the story and characters lives. Looking forward to reading more about these wolfies.
this book was amazing! had me guessing until the end! she helps supernaturals for a living. now a blood oath is cast upon her if the were wolf dies. so she makes a deal to mate to save her life!
First let me state that I received an Advance Reader Copy, (ARC), but this in no way influences my review. I always leave an honest review. Also this author is new to me, and it won’t be my last.
Wow!!! This story grabbed me from the first page and held me to the end. Kel, an Alpha female heir to her pack, just wants to be a vet, not deal with all the garbage that comes with being a leader and a female. She lives in another packs territory to get her degree, but without them knowing who she really is. Tavis, is an Alpha also and heir to his pack. It’s his territory that Kel lives in. Sparks fly like crazy when these two meet. Lots going on throughout this story. I recommend this read. 5 Thumbs up
MOONSWORN has so many fun things—rival wolf packs, a smart-savvy alpha female MC, a sexy, insatiable male Heir, a mystery involving all the supernaturals, and exciting plot twists that keep you hooked. Tavis and Kel are a perfectly matched couple—they challenge each other, they want each other, they just fit, even when they’re pissing each other off. Ms. Renard’s supernatural world, especially her were-world, is written and detailed to perfection, and almost made me wishing I could shift and find myself a Tavis too. Love this sexy read by this talented new author, and waiting on the edge of my seat for book 2!
