Description
The red glow of the moon washed over land and sea like a faded bloody stain. Everything was bathed in it, including him. A constant reminder of the curse that marked him before he was born. Every night he gazed at it like he was lured and haunted by it. It followed him, it beseeched him. It called out to him. Just once he wanted to see the moon glow as everyone else saw it. Bright and illuminating. But he knew that would never be possible.
The all too familiar feeling of despair suffocated him, like long gangly fingers squeezing his neck, cutting off his air. He fell to his knees and begged for the sky to fall on him. He had suffered long and tirelessly and he was desperate for it to end. And yet, he fought to breathe. He fought to stand back on his feet. Because fighting back was as instinctual to him as breathing. He had come too far to let his loneliness and despair get the best of him now. He was battle worn and weary, but he still had a reason to live.
Or so he hoped.
He stood back on his feet and he fought against the doom that hovered over him since the day he was born and he stared up into the darkened sky.
At the moon that shines red only for him.
He was cursed.
I should have stayed away from him. But I couldn't.
HE was my love...my life. And he just might kill me.
So I guess that means...he may also be my end.

“Pamela Sparkman always knows how to write a story full of emotion, true romance, and meaning. But this book has exceeded my expectations and shines brighter than I ever could have anticipated.”
~ Christie – Smokin’ Hot Book Blog
“I had never really been a fan of, nor read much in the world of fantasy – until this favorite author decided to make a 360-turn and head in a very different direction. And I followed. Utterly spellbound, beguiled by, and swept up in this mesmerizing fantasy. I devoured every word Pamela Sparkman wrote and begged for more.”
~ Anne OK – Goodreads
“Pamela has seamlessly fallen into this genre and made her own stamp into this world with The Moon Shines Red. When I finished reading it, I was so sad to say goodbye. I wanted more. Begged for more. I kept asking for a small scrap of anything of this phenomenal story to read.”
~ Trisha – Devoured Words

“I'm a first time reader of Pamela Sparkman. Yes, I must have lived under a rock because this lady knows how to write. The story is written like a scavenger hunt. Hints are laid out throughout the story. You follow bread crumbs, solve a puzzle and that opens up a whole new lot of questions.” ~ Astrid – Vanilla and Spice Books
