Will this centuries-old Scottish Highlander shifter claim his Regency bluestocking mate before he goes feral? Maon of the MacLeod can’t be alone much longer, not without losing what is left of his humanity. The wolf shifter is desperate to find his mate and does…in the Egyptian desert. But now he must claim the independent woman who considers marriage little better than a jail sentence. Spinster Adaira, daughter of a minor lord, has no interest in turning her life over to a man through the shackles of marriage. She wants to start a free library on her parents’ Scottish estate. But while accompanying them on an Egyptian expedition, she finds a man who stirs her blood in unexpected and unforgettable ways. Adaira’s careful plans collide with Maon’s savage desires and sparks fly, but will their circumstances destroy any chance at happiness or create a future beyond their imaginings? Desert Moon is book seven in the Children of the Moon historical paranormal romance series with shifters, but can be read as a standalone. Passionate with a guaranteed HEA.

USA Today bestseller and award winning Lucy Monroe’s love affair with books and reading began at age 4. She often climbed her mother’s book stacks to pull down the novels on the top shelves. When she was caught reading the Reader’s Digest Condensed Version of “The Godfather” while still in Kindergarten, those books got moved. Although she’s always loved mysteries and suspense as well, romance has been her passion since she snuck that first Harlequin Presents from her oldest sister’s bedside table (again way too early). Her path to publication was not strewn with rose petals or even pavement! Lucy wrote more than one million words of romantic fiction before selling her 13th manuscript to Harlequin Presents. However, she subsequently sold all the romance manuscripts she’d written prior to that to Harlequin, Kensington and Berkley. She went on to write more books and published with Grand Central and Samhain Publishing as well, before embarking on an exciting journey into indie publishing. Lucy has hit national bestsellers lists in England and the USA. She’s had more than 80 books published and been translated into numerous languages with her books for sale in dozens of countries. Her highly charged, sensual stories touch on the realities of life while giving the reader a fantasy story not easily forgotten. Lucy’s books transport her readers to a special place where the heart rules and love conquers all. Known for her emotional depth, snappy dialogue, solid plotting and dry wit, Monroe’s stories have found their way into readers’ hearts and their keeper shelves. Which is exactly where she most wants to be. An author who writes so she can touch readers’ hearts, she’s never happier than when hearing from readers when she’s done so.
