Omega Moon is dark, gritty and a fresh take on the "shifter" genre. The story focuses on Alec, an 18-year-old college student and newly turned werewolf. Alec is trying to understand his abilities when Professor Damien Lock comes along to shake him to his core, providing him with knowledge on packs, Alphas, Betas and Omegas. 

As if his life wasn’t crazy enough, Alec also struggles to keep his friendship with his best-friend Brodie who is the heir to a multimillion dollar company and lives in a giant mansion filled with pretentious art and maids. Alec also meets Connor, another werewolf who acts as his guide to all-things-furry. 

With everything going on around him, Alec is truly put to the test when there’s a murder on campus and he can’t remember where he’d been the night before. Was it him? Is he capable of such things once he’s turned? 

Join him on a journey of romance, the paranormal and a murder-mystery with plenty of twists.

We were approached by a new author and asked to review their book - and all I can say is WOW!

This book had me enthralled, and just when you think you have everything clear in your mind.... Wham something else happens that you just didn't see coming. I actually read this book in a day as I didn't want to put down, but had to know why things were happening, and by whom.

We meet Alec, who is a werewolf, and more importantly an omega, but he never realised what he was.... until the night of a full moon. When he wakes the following morning, it is to learn that a young girl has been murdered and Alec is convinced he killed her. He doesn't know what to do and has nobody that he can speak to. He just decides to carry on with his classes as though nothing had happened.
His friend Brodie then seems to be around Alec more, and Alec is unsure about Brodie and why he is around all the time since the killings happened. I think he really doesn't know who to trust, but he doesn't feel at ease enough with Brodie to confide in him, I think he is frightened of losing his friend.

Now enter Damien, his professor at college, and Alex is strangely drawn to him. What Alec doesn't realise is that Damien is also a werewolf but more importantly he is an alpha. When things escalate around Alec, it is Damien who comforts him, and then takes things further by kissing him. He then asks Alec to trust him and takes him to the pack he is Alpha, and shows him that there are others just like him. This is where Alec meets Conner, who is also an omega, a pregnant omega!

​Damien then goes on to explain to Alec that he is an alpha and that Alec is not only an omega but also his soulmate. Alec senses he is an alpha, and due to the sweet smell around Damien he believes him when he says he is his soulmate, and the two begin a relationship.
Strange things then start happening to Alec, and for some reason he is sure that it is Brodie doing all these things to him.... but he couldn't be more wrong. There is a secret or two that Brodie has, and it is not until the pieces all start coming together that you find out his secrets - and I am not saying any more as this is a main part of the book.
This is not a book full of sex scenes, but it didn't need this, but you instead have a great story which is full of twists and turns, and I would recommend it highly. I was certainly not expecting things to happen how they did, and to me this is a sign of a good book, as I had no idea of the way things would turn out.
