Brilliant series starter The first book in the Witch Moon series, Dark Moon Secrets was a strong start. With immersive world building, strong characters and a solid story line, this engaging paranormal fantasy had me hooked. The scene has been set for so much more to come and with a range of different characters which I feel will all play a role in Tanjie & Alaric’s future. I eagerly await book 2. Highly Recommend.

‘I had no idea how to be a witch, but I would learn. I couldn’t wait to get started and discover everything this new world opening up for me had to offer.’
Dark Moon Secrets is the first book in The Witch Moon Series by Lilliana Rose. After reading her ‘Protector Wolf Shifter’ series, I was really excited to dive into this book as soon as it hit my Kindle. As expected, it was a superb paranormal romance with the rich and vivid world-building and scene-setting that I have come to expect from Ms. Rose. With a bit of an enemies to lovers element, witches, wolf shifters, agendas, secrets, destiny/fate, action, adventure, tension, intrigue, high stakes, chemistry, spice, and plenty more- I couldn’t put the book down- reading it in one sitting because I was so immersed and invested in the story. Tanjie though she was a ‘normal’ human- but with the death of her friend and neighbour, her life takes a strange turn, and she discovers that there is much more to the world than she had believed. Now she must claim her birthright and accept what destiny has in store for her as the future of the coven depends on Tanjie- as they balance the power and actions of the ‘magical’ and supernatural world. Again, Ms. Rose weaves a gripping story with plenty of suspenseful, intriguing, and mysterious elements that kept me turning the pages to find out what was going on. The story ended with things still unresolved – so everything is set to continue in the next instalment ‘New Moon Fate’ (Book #2) – and I can’t wait. Happy Reading…

After reading the Protector Wolf Shifter series by this author Lilliana Rose, I just had to pick up this one. Dark Moon Secrets was another great paranormal read by her. This is the first book of the Witch Moon series and I’m already ready to start the second 😂 Just like the other books, When I tell you I devoured this book, mann!! I was instantly in love and intrigued with her unique storytelling and fantastic character building. This book has witches, shifters, drama, mystery, secrets and the oh so sweet forbidden romance between Alaric and Tanjie. I’m waiting patiently for the next book(New Moon Fate), I can’t wait to see what the author has in store for us. To see just how powerful Tanjie will get! Ps: I also love this cover 🥰

Reading this book about Tanjie and Alaric was very amusing, but at the same time I wanted to throttle them both. Both were stubborn in their own ways. Both very ignorant at first, but watching them work through those ignorance’s, and having their lightbulb moment had my shouting “Finally!” I loved that this book was based in Australia, and had a modern twist to it. The supernatural aspect was a little different and it was a breath of fresh air. Trying to do something new when you already have a very set supernatural world that everyone knows, is a feat in it’s own right. The storytelling was very well done and I can’t wait to see what this author bring to the table in her next book!

This book is well written and interesting fantasy story that gives a fresh take on this genre. I loved getting to know the characters. Their relationship is complicated and hard and relatable. Seeing them navigate through everything going on really pulled me in. The storyline was well developed. I loved how so much seemed to play into it and I wanted to see how everything would play out. This is the kind of story that I kept thinking about and had to keep coming back to until it was finished. This is the first book outside of a particular series that I have read by this author and I am pleased it is just as good. I cannot wait to see what else is to come.

Dark Moon Secrets is the exciting first book in The Witch Moon series. It is a paranormal romance tale that is fast-paced and is action packed full of drama, danger, and tension. I love a good paranormal tale and this one had me on the edge of my seat and my heart pumping. It is mysterious, intense, suspenseful and intriguing.
I have really enjoyed each and every book I have read by Lilliana and this one is no different. A great start to this new series.
There is a cast of many in this book, but they are interesting, well developed and fully realised and it is so easy to become invested in them. With witches, shifters, unexpected inheritances, rebellions, secrets, lies, hatred and mates there is not a dull moment to be had.
Tanjie has no idea who or what she is when she turns up to claim her inheritance. It is definitely not what she expected. She is thrust into a world she knows nothing about. A world she is not sure she wants to belong to. A world of secrets and lies that have been long buried and are about to come to light.
Tensions are running high as the alpha of the pack decide to make a stand that could destroy them all. That is until a mysterious woman comes to town. She will either make or break him.
Dark Moon Secrets is one tale that I am not going to share with you because you should enjoy that story as you slowly reveal its secrets as you turn the pages. If you love paranormal romance, then give this book a try. You know you want to.
I look forward to more of this series from Lilliana.

Highly recommend for anyone who loves Urban Fantasy and a fast-paced read. 4 out of 5 Stars

Tanjie has always considered herself as a logical and mature human, with parents like her that believe in magic and destiny she was forced to grow up before her time. Now life has a kind of funny sense of timing and with the death of one of her most beloved neighbors she is about to understand that her mom and dad were on the dot more so than she could ever understand.
Alaric is ready for the next step on the pack’s life, lacking the discipline should be a problem but no one that he considers important, the call of freedom has been received and he cannot wait any longer.
This story is full of magic, secrets, it will leave you hanging on until the very end.

This is the second series I’ve read (well, started to read, this being the first book in this particular series), and Lilliana Rose is consistent in her character development and gradual revealing of storyline. I definitely enjoy the paranormal romance trope, witches and werewolves being the center of this dramatic storyline, and the battle between the coven and other supernatural creatures is definitely intriguing. Probably one of the best things Ms. Rose does is leave each book almost as a cliffhanger- you HAVE to read the next one to continue the story! I love the significance of the Dark Moon that she brings to the story, adding an extra layer of mysticism to an already intriguing storyline, and the forbidden love between Tanji (witch) and Al (werewolf) is steamy from the get go. Looking forward to book 2!

I really like the different take on the supernatural! The setting being in Australia is a new one for me as well and I really enjoyed it. I do feel like there are a lot more unanswered questions than most of the time when there’s going to be another book but that could just be me. I feel like the character development and relationships are very realistic and I was sucked in immediately. Can’t wait to learn more!

Tanjie has no idea she’s a witch and comes into a bookstore and coven heading to war with the wolves. What a great story. It’s fast paced. It’s a new approach that caught my attention straight off the start. I loved the contemporary feel of the story. The characters were awesome. Luna, George, Adam, Caleb and Mia were wonderful support. George is an old hoot. Really cool story. I can’t wait to see where this goes. I’m excited because this was set up perfect. Her wolf wants and can’t because of the war and he’s the Alpha’s son. Give this a shot. You won’t be sorry

This is the first book in the Witch Mion Series. This is a great start to the series if you love paranormal stories like i do then this is definately one for you. This story is full of mystery, secrets from the beginning and twists and turns along the way that keeps you guessing. As well as this there is also the start of a forbidden romance. Imagine having your whole life turned upside down by a secret you never knew existed. That’s exactly what happens to Tanjie. When her neighbour passes away she is left in charge of her book store. However its not a normal bookstore. It is a cover for people who aren’t human. Suddenly Tanjie is thrown into a world she never knew existed with creatures she never dreamed were real. And so her adventure begins as she comes to terms with the fact she is a witch and trys to find a way to control her powers. Added to this a forbidden romance emerging between the witch and a werewolf. Do they follow their heart? What would be the consequences if they do? Will their romance risk both of their lives?
This was a great read and I can’t wait to read more in the series to come. This author does an amazing job of bringing the paranormal into reality in a way that the author can actually imagine it really happening.

This book is a great start to a series. It has everything you could possibly hope for in the beginning of a series. It has mystery, intrigue, steam, character building situations, and amazing visualization of the setting. This book has the supernatural essence down to a science. I loved the turmoil that the characters face in the book. Do they do what they know is right or do they risk everything. They need to figure out what secrets are being kept from them. I loved the way the author brings the magical aspect of the book into the story line. It really just has amazing flow. It really builds for the future books and I can’t wait to read them. This series beginner won’t disappoint with the steam, the magical powers, the flight or fight of the characters, and just being really well written. It is a quick paced read. I was able to get lost into this world of magic and submerse myself in the story. This made turning the pages almost seamless. If you have an afternoon to get lost in a new paranormal world, this is the book for you. Reviewed by: @bbohls
