Witches and werewolves and psychics, oh my!

This is third book in the Moon series by Ms. York and a fun one at that. This one gets more into the intrigue and differences between paranormal species. Adam Marshall is a werewolf and forest ranger (really, what better job after all?). Dr. Sara Weston is the target of a group of witches who think the Atlanta swamp is theirs to control. Together Adam and Sara have to trust each other to save themselves.

Nice Atmospheric Werewolf Book

The first one of Ms. York's books I read was Crimson Moon. Her take on werewolves intrigued me, so I went back and read the other books in the series. This one has some really interesting elements. I love the spooky backdrop of the swamp and the small town setting with its prejudices and hidden past. I love the idea that the waters of the swamp gave some of the townspeople psychic powers. And I love the way the author uses that as a jumping-off point to write about how people deal with their primal fears. She drops werewolf Adam Marshall into this churning mix of myth and buried secrets and stirs up a story of suspense, intrigue, and sensuality.

breathtaking!!!

I could not put this book down!! I had to buy her other books in the Series, and just keep wanting to soak up more. If you pick this book up, you are in for a long night cuz you wont put it down until your finished. Rebecca York has the ability to sweep the reader into the story.

A "howling" great time!!

Harlequin Intrigues were the "home" of York for a long time and she never failed to deliver a good read. But she really shines as she moves to "big books" for Berkley. This is third in the tense Moon series, and though maybe slightly weaker than the first two, it's only because of there is less surprise after the first two. The writing is compelling, the characters leap off the pages. This is paranormal romance at its best.In this tale, Sara Weston is a botanist (a witch but denies her powers). She has come to the swamp to do research and this puts her into the territory of Adam Marshall. He is a ranger who patrols the Nature Refuge, but he is a very "special ranger". In the dark of night, mysterious fires are seen burning, but as Adam investigates he finds the fires have a drugging effect. Can he solve the riddle before it's too late?As Adam and Sara find each other, they must fight the unseen that see that as being in the way. They must learn to accept who and what they are if they are to survive.A "howling" great read!!

Absoltely memorable characters -- Highly recommended

In the South Georgian small town of Wayland, a coven of witches waits to take their revenge. A hundred of year heritage of the town rising against their own who possess paranormal gifts has left a burning rage and determination for revenge. Led by Falcon, the coven plans to take revenge on the town whose citizens killed generations of parents and grandparents.Adam Marshall comes to the Olakimpa swamp, a privately owned Nature's Refuge, to take the place of its previous ranger, Ken White, who was killed in an unsolved shooting. Soon after arriving, a mysterious scent leads the shapeshifter to witness a coven of witches cavorting in the moonlight. The powerful herbs cast on the fire mesmerize him until he must flee for his life with the coven in hot pursuit.The next morning Adam returns to the site, to find a woman gathering herbs. Biologist Sara Watson researches the local fauna for commercial medicinal plants as part of an agreement between the swamp owner and Granville Pharmaceuticals. Shortly after her arrival in Wayland, Sara begins to have an awakening of her psychic talents - gifts she has repressed since she was four. As Adam and Sara struggle to control their mutual attraction they quickly find themselves joining efforts against danger as the coven targets them next.Author Rebecca York pens an exciting read in WITCHING MOON. Adam's use of his shapeshifting abilities adds an unusual element to this police procedural even as his sensuality lends the romance delightful heat. Sara's struggle to reconcile her abilities with her determination to fit into the ordinary world leads to an intriguing internal struggle. Indeed, the characterizations, including wonderfully developed secondary characters, are the novel's greatest strength. While York's knowledge of Wicca seems superficial at best, and requires the reader to accept paranormal gifts as the sole definition of a witch, the cult's combined abilities do result in a riveting read. WITCHING MOON comes highly recommended.
