I love the one-sided conversations she has in front of him. Nikolas is a little on edge, shall we say? He wants to know what Sophie knows about the hounds. He also wants to know why he saw her in her vision. He gets angry at her for constantly putting herself in the way of danger. I loved their dynamics. It was fun to see who would blink first. The secondary characters were an interesting mix. I liked some of them. Some were just introduced, and we'll see them in future stories. I look forward to seeing them again. (  ) Sheila1957 | Feb 28, 2024 | There were quite a few really interesting ideas in terms of world-building and the magic but the story was so dominated by the run-of-the-mill PnR that there just wasn't any space left to properly explore any of it. And after finishing this one I am almost positive that the author won't do so in later volumes either. It's not bad as a PnR, but that part is just unoriginal and clichéed.

HTML: From bestselling author Thea Harrison comes the first in an explosive new trilogy set in the Elder Races world.... Her past is a blank, her future uncertain.... Recovering from a shooting, LAPD witch consultant Sophie Ross leaves her job and travels to the U.K. to search for answers about her childhood. When she encounters a Daoine Sidhe knight of the Dark Court, she becomes entangled in an ancient hatred between two arcane forces. He has given his body and soul to fight for his people.... Barred from his homeland along with his surviving brother knights, Nikolas Sevigny is embroiled in a conflict that threatens everything he holds dear. Only by uniting his people's resources can they hope to prevail against Isabeau, the deadly Queen of the Light Court. He will do anything and use anyone to return home to Lyonesse. When Nikolas encounters Sophie, he sees a tool to be used. The insouciant witch might be the key to unlocking every passageway that has been barred to the knights of the Dark Court, even as a fascination for her takes root in what's left of his soul. Sophie has no intention of becoming anyone's pawn, yet the fierce Nikolas is so compelling, she can't deny the temptation that endangers her guarded heart. As magic threatens Lyonesse, Queen Isabeau unleashes her merciless Hounds, and Nikolas and Sophie become embroiled in a race for survival. Meanwhile, the passion that ignites between them burns too hot to be denied and quickly turns into obsession. Thank goodness they both know better than to fall in love...

Plot:
After a shooting, witch consultant to the LAPD Sophie needs a break from her job and from the USA. She travels to the UK, hoping to uncover some family history and to use her magic to open a house that has stubbornly remained shut for a very long time. Should she manage to do it, her reward would be the title to the house and the surrounding land. Trouble starts before she ever even gets there and then she meets Nikolas. Only it isn't the first time they met - Nikolas has been appearing to her. And vice versa, apparently. Nikolas brings his own pack of problems and draws Sophie into a long war between the Dark Court and the Light Court.
Moonshadow is a good read, although it didn't completely blow me away. I liked it, but I don't know if the mood will really strike me to continue with the series or delve further into the world this is a spin-off from.
