This was a well written, fast paced, romantic suspense. The suspenseful storyline had plenty of twists and turns that kept me on the edge of my seat. Although, this was a paranormal romance the story was centered around Zane and Francesca. He was trying to keep her safe and trying to figure out why someone was after her. This was a wonderful romantic suspense story and I would definitely recommend it.

A big thank you to NetGalley and Author Collective 20 for the ARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. this is part of a series (number 19) but reads well as a stand alone. I have read a few others, for me this was just ok. There is a mystery and suspense but it didn't seem realistic. she mentions healing powers of werewolves yet a gunshot wound knocks him out, and I thought werewolves.had.great eyesight yet he stumbles over something in the dark. The dealings with the police are not plausible in my opinion. It is a quick good read with instant attraction. I think many will enjoy this book, it just wasn't one of her strongest in my opinion. I give it 3 stars.

Francesca heads to Florida to meet her Uncle in hopes of a reconciliation with her ailing father. Little does she know that Uncle Angelo has some shady associates. Francesca is in need of rescuing and Zane is in the right place at the right time.

Overall a decent read. There's insta-attraction as Zane has found his lifemate. Francesca is attracted and doesn't know why. Zane works for a detective agency and has the skills to keep Francesca safe. The mystery aspect of the book worked well.

What I didn't like. Zane is injured protecting Francesca. The book mentions the superior healing abilities of werewolves, yet Zane is knocked on his butt for at least 2 days recoving from a gunshot wound in his arm. Um, how are those healing abilities working out? Mentioned several times about how all the werewolves are all Alpha males yet Zane seemed fairly wussy at times. Last thing I'll somewhat gripe about is the wrap up of the mystery. Of course Francesca and Zane get their HEA (as is expected and desired). Their dealing with the police at the end was really implausible.

The good outweighed the less than good. No regrets in reading this one.

Zane is a werewolf and a employee of a security company. He is in Florida on assignment and notices some men tossing a patio. He investigates and finds a woman. Francesca is visiting her uncle to try to get him and her father to reconcile. Her uncle is killed and now the thugs are after her. Zane knows Francesca is his life mate but can’t tell her he’s a werewolf until they figure out why the men are after her. As they are on the run, the sparks between them light up. Can he save her and convince her they belong together?
Good story with action, sex, and suspense. The conversations was a little stilted at time but it’s a good book overall.

A quick easy read, that was a little too skimmable at times. I have read others by this author that I liked better, but this did hold my interest enough to see to the end. Would recommend if you want a quick easy summer read about a hot shifter.

This is sweet romance that is light on substance but is a good mystery. It is perfect for times when a light but perfect romance is required. I have read other rebecca York books since reading fire on the moon. She knows how to keep you interested. Thanks to netgalley for giving me the opportunity to review this book.

Fire on the Moon by Rebecca York is a paranormal romantic suspense story. It is the 19th book in the Decorah Security Series, but can be read as a standalone novel.

The book mainly takes place in Florida where Francesca Turner has gone to visit her uncle. Francesca’s father is in a nursing home and she hopes to be able get the two brothers to reconcile their differences. While things start out okay, they quickly spiral out of control for her. Two men approach her uncle’s house who hides her in a safe room. She is initially saved by werewolf Zane Marshall and they end up fighting a group of unknowns for survival.

The novel is written well but is short (161 pages) so there is not a lot of character development. While you experience the ups and downs of Francesca and Zane, you don’t get an understanding of what they would be like under normal circumstances. It is easy to read, but does touch on some real issues such as dealing with a family member that has Parkinson’s Disease.

Because of the shortness of the book, it is very fast-paced with a lot of action scenes as well as a few steamy romantic scenes. The romance part of the book starts very quickly which made it somewhat unbelievable. However, the book is entertaining, has a twist that may surprise some, and overall, was an enjoyable read. I recommend it to those that like paranormal romantic suspense stories.

Thanks to NetGalley, Author Collective 20, and Rebecca York for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I have read other Rebecca York books and this one didn't disappoint. Differed take on werewolves but still good and interesting. Zane saves Francesca's life from two men after her. She's is some shock from hearing her uncle being killed and then a fire set to kill her too. Knowing she has to protect her father too, she doesn't want to tell Zane everything. The biggest problem for Zane is that he knows Francesca is his mate and losing her would destroy him. Now they're on the run. When the truth comes out, everyone is surprised by the twist. I really enjoyed the story and found both characters to be likable. I would recommend this to anyone to read.

I love this author. And when I saw this book, I was excited. Mystery, a couple on the run, a hot werewolf...what's not to love, right? Wrong.

This book struck me as false. From the start, he was calling her honey, but in a hesitant way. Why? Was he trying it out? That was just weird.

And it all felt rushed, as if the author was thinking "oh, let's get them in this jam. Now they have this problem. Oh wait, they need to stop and make out". I didn't feel a connection to the characters or the story. In fact, I was bored.

I received an advance copy From #netgalley which I appreciated. Obviously this didn't affect my review.

Fransesca was on a mission. To reunite her uncle and Dad. Her mission becomes a matter of life or death. Enters Zane, a PI that’s wrapping up an assignment. Is Zane the man of her dreams, or is he more than just a man. Follow these 2 as they elude the bad guys and fine love while doing it!

This book was read as an ARC from NetGalley for an honest opinion!

Another winner! I thoroughly enjoyed this paranormal romance featuring Zane, a werewolf and Decorah agent. He comes to Fransesca's aid as a wolf when she is being attacked. They are quickly on the run for their lives as Zane fights both his attraction to Fransesca and how (or if) to tell her he's a werewolf. I loved the characters and loved reading Zane's story.

This book has all the action and romance you would expect in a Decorah Security novel and does not disappoint. It also had a twist I never saw coming. If you are a fan of the genre, you will love this book. The author is on my must read authors' list.
