This was the first book I have read by Jennifer Snyder and she did not disappoint! I had found her through another author who I thoroughly enjoy and had the opportunity to read chapter 1 of Moon Kissed before the book was released. By the end of chapter 1, I was hooked! I was so anxious to read the book I pre-ordered it immediately and put a countdown on my phone! Unfortunately I could not read the book immediately as I had to work, but once I was done with work, I sat in my sun-room and read the entire book! I just could not put it down!
Mina... I love her as a person. She wants to have a normal life, but deep down inside, she knows that nothing about her will ever be normal. She also really wants to be Moon Kissed but plays it off that she will be fine if she doesn't get Moon Kissed. I have a feeling Mina likes to hang out with Alec because he is normal and she is also fighting the pull between her and Eli. By the end of the book, Mina seems to realize she will need to eventually choose between Eli and Alec.
Alec... He is a sweet, sexy, southern boy. Everything about him is southern from the way he talks to riding quads. We don't get to see too much of Alec since Mina seems to blow him off for her father, and for pack business. I also believe that Mina is now worried about Shane since someone from the pack is missing and Shane and his brother hunt within the area. Mina has also heard Shane and his brother talking about catching and selling wolves. I hope to see more of Alec in the next book and I am sure I will.
Eli... I am team Eli all the way! I don't completely know what it is about him. He has this mysteriousness about him that I love. He seems to know an awful lot about Mina... so much to the point that he knows more about her than she realizes. I know Mina plays ot off due to the fact they have been neighbors forever, but I think with the way Mina is so drawn to him, that there is more to that story. You can tell how much Eli likes Mina and wants her from him trying to stop her from going out with Alec to him moving to the trailer right next door. I have a feeling these two are soul mates or something like that and I think Eli knows which is why they are so drawn to one another.
With the way the book was going, I think (and hope) we will see more of Eli and Mina time. Plus I want a repeat of that heated kiss the two of them shared. I wonder if Alec will find out what Mina is since Shane already knows. If Alec does find out, how will he treat her? Or what would he do? I have so many unanswered questions. I look forward to reading the next book in the Mirror Lake Wolves Series.

Another paranormal story from Ms Snyder that I fell in love with. She created another world that sucked me in and is not letting me go. I love it. I'm hooked and I want more. Soon. Very soon.

In here we meet Mina who seems to be a normal girl but is anything but. She is part a wolf pack and is impatiently awaiting her gene to be activated. But as life is never easy, the gene is not playing along. And also life is not easy on Mina with love life. Having two amazing guys turn attention towards her causes Mina to be confused. And situation around her home is not helping her feelings.

And omg. Those two guys? HOTNESS ALERT! I loved both: Eli and Alec. For now I have not decided which I prefer more.

Cannot. Wait. For. The. Next. Part.

5 amazing well deserved stars!

I guess I might be on a kick of reading new authors this weekend because here's another review about a book written by an author I've never read from until today.



Moon Kissed was a pretty interesting werewolf shifter book. Now I'm not really a fan of love-triangles and such but Jennifer Snyder definitely pulled it off. I guess the one thing I don't really understand from this book was the ending. I wouldn't really call it a cliffhanger or anything super dramatic that left you hanging on the edge of your seat wanting more and then screaming at the book because of it ended and/or throwing the book at the wall from frustration. Nope, sorry that didn't happen for me at all because this book just ended right then and there. It ended right in the middle of everything happening. WHO DOES THAT?!?! I'm guessing it's to get people to get the next book and read it hoping it continues right where this book left off - and I'm honestly going to do that, but I was just wondering WHY?!?



You got me Jennifer. I will get the next book and I will find out what is happening. I'm on to you.

This was quite a cute book. It had a nice plot line to it. And it was nice that it didn't add a ton of ridiculous notions to it outside the main point if the book. 

This book did end with quite a lot of unanswered questions. There was a lack of descriptions.

I always enjoy Jennifer Snyder's books. So when I saw that she was putting out a new werewolf series, I was so excited! I received an ARC of this book from a Facebook giveaway.

One of the things that I loved most about this book is the way you became a werewolf. Mina was born with the potential to become a wolf (or Moon Kissed). I like that just because you were born in the pack didn't mean you automatically turned furry.

I also really liked Mina... I think she was a little silly for dating a human guy but then again I also understand that she wanted to chance for normalcy. Plus she hadn't been moon kissed yet.

The book leaves off at a really good place and I can't wait to get my hands on the next one!

I’m enjoying the characters so far, but there’s barely anything paranormal and the stopping point of this book was very strange, leaving nothing resolved.

What a frustrating series. I honestly have read books 1-4 but they're so exhaustingly rushed that I cant seem to get beyond those 4. I love the plot, I love the characters, just feel like the story was written in a way that I have never read before. More amateur then anything. It has the layout of an amazing series but what was written in 4 books could have been 2. I cant find myself to continue with the series. AND DONT GET ME STARTED ON THE ENDINGS. That has to be the most frustrating thing regarding this series. there's no ending at all. its not a cliff hanger its just a sentence of a chapter that stops.... It gives the book a feeling of being unfinished.
