Reader beware … A woman suffering from heartbreak wishes her life would change and wakes up in BLACK MOON DRAW, an unfinished book written by her favorite author, where she must seek out the hero and help him on his mission if she is to return home. 

Synopsis

A reader gets sucked into the book she’s reading and is trapped, unless she convinces the hero of the story to send her home. Just her luck - the book is unfinished, and its sexy hero is far more alpha male than she’s prepared to handle. What Naia doesn’t know: the story – and its hero – have been expecting her for quite some time, even though she has no idea what she’s doing there. Naia must learn quickly how to navigate the dangerous, magical world of Black Moon Draw and find a way to complete her journey with the unlikely, uncooperative hero of the story, who holds the key to returning her home. 

Praise for BLACK MOON DRAW:

  “Lizzy Ford has done it again. She has created a story her fans are going to love and one that is different from so many others out there. The reader is transported into the book she is reading. . . I think that this is a story about believing in yourself and not letting what others say or how they treat you, stop you from that. In the end, it's about what you believe yourself capable of and not be scared to venture out of your comfort zone. I loved it!”—Cindy, Goodreads reader 

As soon as I read the synopsis for this book, I knew I had to read it. To be sucked into a book you are reading? This sounds like a dream come true for me! I have never read a book anything like this, and this book is truly one of a kind. The plot of the book was amazing. I was never bored with this book; I read this book in one sitting because I could not put this book down. It was physically impossible to stop myself from reading this book. For me personally, there was not a single thing I disliked about this book. There was action, mystery, romance, and humor. I enjoyed every single word of this book. I also liked the setting of the book that the main character, Naia, gets sucked into. It is a medieval world with knights, princesses, princes, witches; everything you would imagine in that time period.

I absolutely adored Naia. Naia was relatable, hilarious, and lovable. Naia was a great narrator because she reacted to be sucked into a book in an extremely believable way. I never felt the need to slap her because she was being stupid; she did everything with purpose, which was really nice to see. 

Naia is fabulous, but my heart belongs to the Shadow King. He was everything a girl could wish for. The chemistry between the Shadow King and Naia was palpable, and I wanted them to be together so bad. Once they finally admit their feelings for each other, my heart felt like it burst into rainbows. I just loved them so much. The Shadow King was possessive, brooding, he could kick some serious butt, and he was just all around awesome. 

            "The corner of his lips turned up in a smile. "I would like to spend my last night with my queen."

             "I'm not your queen."

             "Do you wish to be?"

             I stare at him, every hormone in my body jumping and screaming, while my brain seems to completely stop working. 

             "Is this because I'm the only girl around?" I ask suspiciously, unable to process the idea of belonging to this man, of him belonging to men, even for one night.

              "Tis because no woman has ever touched my heart the way you have." 

 I melt."

This book was an absolute joy to read. The book ended in a way that it can be a stand-alone novel, but I wish I could get more of the book! I will just have to live with re-reading this book over and over again, which is perfectly okay with me. I recommend this book to anyone who is looking for a romance that truly takes you to another world. I really do not think you will regret reading this book. There is no other book like it out there.

Review

     This book immediately intrigued me when I saw the cover, and I knew I had to read this book. Voodoo is a part of the paranormal genre that I do not read a lot, but this book made me think I should try and read more stories about voodoo! From the first page of the book, I was hooked to this story. The elements of voodoo and mystery were enough to keep me up all night long because I needed to know what would happen next. This book also had some romance, which made me very happy. The romance in this book was sweet; definitely a tame YA romance. I liked the sweetest of the romance in this book; it was refreshing.

     I really liked the main character of this book, Adrienne. She was a sweet and caring girl. I felt like her character was believable and easy to relate to. She was never selfish or dumb, which I appreciated a lot! Some people might think she is weak, but I think differently. I think she is just an average girl, like most of us, who gets dragged into a world full of curses and black magic. Adrienne does not go out and kick butt, however, I do not think that means she is weak. She stands up for what she thinks is right, and does whatever she can to protect the people she cares about. What is so weak about that? 

    Now, I get to talk about Rene. Rene is a gang member who is always cleaning up after his brother, Jax. Rene is so sweet and caring that I could not help but fall in love with him. He has his moments when he was a jerk, but he had reasoning for acting that way. I always forgave him. Rene was always going out of his way to protect Adrienne, and helped her whenever he could. Rene and Adrienne do not end up together, but I sense there might be a love triangle in the future between them and Jayden. I am not sure how I feel about a love triangle, but I guess we will have to wait and see how the next book plays out!

    Oh, Jayden. I love Jayden. He seemed like the ideal perfect guy. He was charming, athletic, gorgeous, smart, caring, and rich. Jayden sounds like he has no flaws. That kind of bugged me a little, he almost seemed too perfect at times, if that makes sense. However, I still love his character, and his relationship with Adrienne. The romance between Adrienne and Jayden was sweet and well paced. I liked that the romance added to the storyline of the book, but it was not the entire theme of the book. I really cannot wait to see the relationship with Adrienne and Jayden to blossom in the next book. 

      "He held her gaze, and a new kind of warmth bloomed within her, one that started at the base     of her belly and spread throughout her body, making her feel fevered. Jayden lowered his head to hers, hesitated, and then planted his lips lightly on hers. "

     One thing that bugged me in the book was that all the characters used double negatives when they spoke. It drove me insane! I guess that might be common in the area of New Orleans that this book takes place, but it still made me angry. Other than that, I really did enjoy this book. The plot was interesting, and I liked all the characters in the book. The book ended on a cliffhanger that kept making me click my e-reader in hopes that there were more pages to the book. Now I am anxiously awaiting the sequel to this book because I cannot wait to see what happens to Adrienne and her friends. 

Cliffhanger: Yes
