4⭐️ 3🌶️
MOOD: lighthearted, funny 
TROPES: fated mates, bi-awakening, instalust 
GENRES: fantasy, contemporary, LGBTQ romance
FAV QUOTE: Caught like a rabbit, I just stood there in stunned silence as a gorgeous and determined wolf stalked towards me.

MAIN CHARACTERS: Ezequiel "Zeke" Castro and Sacha Lupescu
TAROT CARD: The Moon

THE GOOD: I am biased cause I love Delaney Rain's monster romances and am happy to say that Trust in the Moon met my expectations and is another great read. This is a fairly quick read and kind of straddles the line between cozy & smutty monster romance but it does get spicy fairly quick.  I'm a fan of Shifters having 3 forms so, know that that happens.  It's not just the romance and relationship that made this a great read - there's also a B (and C?) plot going on which was enjoyable, mysterious, and had a satisfying outcome.
THE NEUTRAL: I had a hard time picturing Zeke based on the available description and the comparisons made between him and his friends. Sacha's family tree is also a little nutty so I'm glad Zeke worked to figure it out cause I couldn't.
THE MEH: The Owner comes off as more of an a-hole than he does in other books.

CW: sexual content, homophobia, mentions of parental death, some violence
DISCLAIMER: I received an advance review copy. This is my honest review.
