Push and pull

The alpha 'rescue' vibes were strong in this story, emotional rescue mostly, but it was there. This series takes these morally grey group of men who run an unofficial network of providing safe passage to victims of domestic abuse. Raven had previously been in such a situation when she was young but the trauma persisted. The long standing friendship between Otto and Raven was the grounds for her to be able to finally trust a man with intimacy but it was a slow burn to that end.

I love a good push-pull connection in a romance and this couple had all that. There was a sense of 'no-entry' in their connection because Otto was the long time best friend of Raven's brother. Raven didn't hide her feelings as much as Otto did but there were gone for one another.

As much as Raven felt safe with Otto, there were things happening around them that threatened that safety. Otto's push was grounded in his sense of inadequacy and lack of goodness. Raven gave Otto a safe haven to be find value in himself and that was the most satisfying part of this read for me.

If you love an alpha male who isn't superior but still eminates those vibes, then this series is a good one for you.

Thank you to the author for the review copy.

Of course, I have to say thank you to AL Jackson and her influencer team for gifting me an ARC of this book. I absolutely fell in love with Charleigh and River in the first book but OMGGGG the angst between Otto and Raven was everything!! 

I loved the vibes we got between Otto and Raven during the first book and the tension that exists between them in Under an Endless Moon is so delicious. I love the depth of their friendship and how they’ve always been able to understand each other. The lengths they’d unknowingly go to in order to protect each other is so sweet and I seriously LOOOOVE a morally grey hero. The alpha hole protectiveness that exists in Otto was one of my favorite parts of this book, I have to admit.

And seriously, the way Raven is able to continue to push and be positive and keep trying towards a life she wants had my heart exploding. Knowing her history from the first book, she deserves everything and she really fights for it. Her strength is surprising and I love her character all the more for it, she would do anything for her family.

Under an Endless Moon is an emotional, bittersweet, found family, brothers best friends romance story with plenty of angst and spice and an unlikely family who would do anything for one another. I seriously love the Moonlit Ridge series and am so ready for the rest of the guys’ love stories!!🩵
