2nd son tries to emerge from brother's shadow

I am voluntarily submitting my honest review after receiving an ARC of the audiobook generously provided by the author.

In this enchanting sequel to Desert Moon, we return to Twin Moon Ranch as Cody comes into his own. Most of his life, considered a playboy and jokster, Cody has lived in the shadow of his brother, Alpha wolf shifter Ty. But Cody now feels ready to step up and claim a more important role in the pack and find a mate of his own. Investigating a series of murders a little too close to the Ranch is the chance he needs to prove his worth. And when Heather Luth arrives and accepts a temporary teaching job, Cody knows almost right away that she is his mate. The only problem--she's human, and she clearly is hiding secrets of her own--secrets that keep her from trusting men. As this enchanting novel unfolds and Ty and Heather rediscover themselves and each other, the author's descriptions bring the desert alive. This book is by turns uplifting and inspiring as we see Ty and Heather become the people they are meant to be, then heartbreaking and maddening when we see outside forces conspire against them. The story and well-drawn characters draw you in and you just can't help but cheer them on! I think my experience of this novel was enhanced by having previously read Desert Moon, I think you could probably still like this book just as much as a standalone novel. I listened to the audiobook version of Desert Blood, and I highly recommend experiencing the book this way. The narrator's sense of timing and pace is spot on--especially during the steamy scenes which she somehow makes even hotter! Her smooth, lyrical voice, combined with Anna Lowe's descriptive prose truly makes the desert come to life if you close your eyes while listening to certain passages of the book. This is a great series that fans of shifter fiction are sure to enjoy!

I really enjoyed this sequel!

I really enjoyed this sequel and the two main characters in this story. I loved Cody from the first book and Heather was easy to like as well. I loved Cody’s easy-going personality compared to Ty’s. I also understood why he choose to be the comedian. I disliked how negatively Ty and his father judged him. As for Heather, I absolutely loved her spirit and willingness to fight for herself. No wilting flower here. Her innate understanding of Cody was wonderful. I like how fiercely she was willing to defend him when needed.

The kids were great for the humorous aspect of the story. It was easy to fall in love with them especially the class clown, Timmy. He’s a little charmer. I was glad that Heather took a special interest in him.

Ms. Lowe did an excellent job of weaving the love story with humor, mystery and suspense. I appreciated that the characters in this story didn’t have quite as much internal dialogue as the first story. That helped the story actually flow better. I can’t wait to read the next one.

Desert Blood

In continuation of the Twin Moon Ranch series we have Heather and Cody. Heather has fallen victim to a horrific situation and is running for her life. While running she finds a job on the ranch Cody lives on. The struggle for them is difficult as Heather is human and doesn’t know about shifters. Cody is very determined to keep Heather as a mate and fights for her in many ways. This book is great for any shifter lover.

One Great Listen!

I just loved this story, the only thing that I would have changed/added would have been the narrator and have had both a male and a female reading it would have been alittle more expressive. But i love Anna Lowes books anyways and being able to listen to the story unfold while working is a nice touch!

Desert Moon

Such a wounded book about love , trust,and hope .I love how all of the love she had made her strong.

Blood suckers

This story is about Cody, second son to the alpha. It seems he can never be good enough. Heather is running from a vampire and ends up at twin moon ranch. Turns out she is Cindy's mate, but she is human and his father will not allow it. When the vampire and his posse fond Heather Cody will have to fight for his life and his love.

More Awesomeness

Just as impressed as the last one. I never thought I would enjoy audio books, but I was so wrong. I love them and am looking forward to hearing lots and lots more.
