So after that whenever Isaac said he would never let anything happen to Adria, I did not buy it. Sorry, I did not buy their "love. Not only that, but I did not feel sad about Alex being in a weird cult, not sure why since I really liked her in the beginning. So there it is in a nut shell. View all 10 comments.
Jun 28, Inna rated it it was amazing Shelves: I loved this book. It's like Twilight's better, older, hotter, distant cousin. This book is awesome for the following reasons.. I feel like even though her life wasn't great she was immensely loyal to her family. I really hated her mom, but I appreciated that Adria didn't become an angst ridden teen angry at the world. Now granted at times she did do some pretty I loved this book.
Now granted at times she did do some pretty stupid things but i think the flaws in her character were there to make her seem more relatable. Even though at first he appeared as a bit of a man slut I mean Isaac is very swoon-worthy. He has that right amount of possessiveness and love for Adria that you will love him and anyway the whole Alpha thing is kind of hot.
Not to say I dont love romance in m books, I mean i kind of love for the spine chilling totally amazing romance in books but I also want an actual plot. Mayfair Moon had a great plot from Alex and the whole situation with her to Aramei and the situation with her and how she is involved at the end. So I definitely recommend this books to people who love both a good romance read about werewolves as well as a developed plot. I cant wait for the next book because there are just so many answers that I need!!!!!!! And you can check out more about this book on my blog: View all 4 comments.

I think I have my favorite werewolf now: View all 8 comments. Redmerski, you clever gal, you went and created one incredibly addicting story, now didn't you??!! Mayfair Moon is such a creepy, sexy twist for the werewolf story! This is no "Teen Wolf" with a romance; it's a scary, intense, unrelenting tale that grips you with memorable characters, a pulse-racing love, and a captivating plot.
Right off the bat, I have to say Adria has wormed her way into my heart big time!! She has all the aspects of a realistic heroine that I love without the "whoa is me" or the "let me be a pushover for the first half of the story" that I tire of so quickly. Adria is thrust into an unfamiliar, terrifying, deadly world where she has virtually no chance of surviving solo, and she has honest reactions to what's going on around her.
She's brave, strong, smart, and clever, and she has a heart of gold that is truly worthy of being loved. Yep, he won me over easily with his cocky, bad-boy self in the beginning, and when he starts to show his true feelings for Adria I was a goner!! He was incredibly sexy, and I freely admit that I was fanning myself more than once over his alpha-male irresistibility when it came to any female in his presence!!
But he was still so down-to-earth with Adria, devoted to her and determined to keep her safe. I absolutely loved every minute of their budding relationship, from the initial uncertainty and crushing blows to the heart for Adria, to the steamy moments they share as they grow to love each other.
I was wholly invested in their romance because I loved these characters so much, so I felt every emotion as they did. The constant threat of danger and the enemy that could spell doom for their relationship kept me on my toes for the entire story, I felt like I was just holding my breath hoping that the end would find Adria with her wolf boy!! Redmerski is such an amazing story-teller, there were so many thrills and chills along the way in this book!!
Adria is literally thrown to the wolves when her sister is taken by a rival wolf pack, and Remerski describes the creatures she's created in such eerie detail that you can't help but get knots in your stomach every time Dria's in jeopardy!! The ominous sense of twisted danger that follows the antagonists in this story was truly terrifying, and there's no softening of the blow of the gore and horror that ensues. And there was no shortage of intensity with other aspects of the story, either. There were a few scenes where, as she was going in and out of consciousness, Adria had these beautiful, almost poetic images and thoughts in her mind.
It was like I was in her head with her, experiencing the odd out-of-body dream as she did. I just loved these scenes, it took something simple and created such a poignant moment for the story.

I was happy to see that there was no long-winded "fact-telling" about the mythology behind the werewolves in this story. I actually loved reading about them and what being with Isaac would mean for Adria, because it was written into the story in a way that doesn't overwhelm the plot and bring it to a screeching halt. Trajan and Aramei, Isaac's father and his wife, have such an incredibly heartbreaking and sad love, and their tale was so the perfect way to have Adria learn about human-were relationships.
The supporting characters were just right for the story as well; I adored Zia with her perky, outgoing personality, and Harry who was just an all-around great guy that supports Adria no matter what. I loved every bit of this book, it absolutely gets 5 enthusiastic stars from me!! I'm definitely starting on the sequel now!! The threats that loom over these characters that I grew to love are making me brace for some seriously intense moments for the rest of this series, and I can't wait to see what's next for Adria and Isaac!! Oct 26, Shelly Crane rated it it was amazing.
To be honest, it took me a little bit to really get into it. Pretty much as soon as Isaac comes into play I was hooked. Now sadly, I saw a spoiler review for the last book, so I knew exactly what the 'weird stuff' going on in the end of the book was. I kinda wish I hadn't seen the spoiler. I wonder if I would've figured it out for myself. But it didn't ruin anything. If anything I cant wait to read what happens in regards to that. I wonder how she'll react. I understand why 'it' was done and I'm wondering how that will play out.
Overall, I loved it. It was a page turner that I never felt I could put down easily. I will be buying a paperback pronto for my bookshelf. I recommend to readers who love them some hot but sweet guys. View all 3 comments. As an avid bordering on voracious reader, I have a few simple requirements for a book to be successful: Not only did J.
To be completely frank, I had a hard time putting this book down! Redmerski ope As an avid bordering on voracious reader, I have a few simple requirements for a book to be successful: Redmerski opens her novel with Adria and Alex, two sisters from Athens, Georgia who, despite their awful home life have always managed to support one another and remain optimistic about their respective futures. That is, until the night the girls find themselves caught up in a violent and terrifying attack that leaves them reeling, battered, and bruised.
Alex and Adria are removed from their home and re-located to Maine into the home of their uncle and his new wife. For Alex, the move marks the end of her life as she knows it. For Adria, the move becomes a sort of second-chance, a way for her to live in a safe environment, finish school, make new friends, and even snag herself a totally delectable boyfriend in the form of Isaac Mayfair.

Redmerski has done what a good author should do; she has created a myriad of characters that are intriguing, solid, believable, and appropriate to the overall plot line. Every character in this novel knows their place and fills it well while still leaving room for growth as the series itself grows. The Mayfair Moon is a steady read with the major plot line unfolding at a comfortable pace for the reader. Redmerski has a ton of ground to cover in this novel and does so expertly. She establishes both short- and long-term plot lines; ties up the appropriate loose ends for this installment; introduces and develops a large cast of characters; keeps the reader entertained with quick and often witty dialogue; and adds in an absolutely appropriate amount of action and romance.
There is a little bit of everything to be found in this novel and never a dull moment. The writing style is smooth and easy to read and the plot line is one that will appeal to adults and young adults alike. I am very much looking forward to the next installment of the Praverian Chronicles; I want to know what happens to these characters and how their lives are going to change. I do however have one reservation and would be remiss if I failed to mention it: The angst trap can easily be avoided as long as Redmerski keeps her characters moving forward and not wallowing in the past.
Redmerski The Mayfair Moon written by J. Redmerski is a fantastic read; the author has done a terrific job giving us a different type of story around werewolves. I absolutely loved the fresh spin in this genre. I found the authors writing refreshing, and I can say without a doubt that this trilogy is going to be a great one. I have given the author and The Mayfair Moon a 5 star rating as her writing is great, plot and character description are done extremely well and I never once put this book down.
Redmerski is definitely one of my new favorite authors. Adria and Alex are different in many ways Adria more the quite type and Alex more outgoing but always make sure her sister is safe and happy. One evening on their way home they come across a two werewolves fighting in the woods and end up right in the middle of things, barely making it out of the woods alive they return home battered and bruised but alive.
Adria knows her sister took the brunt of the attack trying to protect her from being hurt. Adria cannot believe what she saw and knows deep down that she can tell no one as they may think she is crazy. Adria cannot figure out what is going on with her sister, she stays locked in her room she is horrible to her aunt and uncle who are only trying to provide the girls with a good home. Adria makes some new friends herself and for the first time in her life she knows she is pretty happy besides all the drama her sister is causing.
Her friends take her out one evening so she can see her sister and find out what is going on with Alex. Adria realizes at this point that there is something definitely going on with her sister and way more then she can fathom. I will recommend this book to all of my friends and anyone who reads my reviews should absolutely go purchase The Mayfair Moon. May 07, Scimone Jackson rated it it was ok. Okay so i'm not entirely sure why everyone loved this book. I'm actually thorougly confused honestly.
It wasn't a horrible book persay. I loved the way it started off but then it all went downhill from there to me at least. Our heroine was so annoying at times i could scream. I'm all for the damsel in distress but Damnit! She says to herself Not in her exact words but extrememly close "As i watch my sister bend all out of shape and eat raw meat with blood dripping from her teeth.
I think to myself I then Gasp because i'm so disgusted! Then as if luck would have it Her wonderful boyfriend attempts to save her. She's running from a werewolf and she says "I know i should run and hide in the barn because then i'll be trapped. But something tells me to run into the barn! Why does this guy love her???? He could have any hot sensible werewolf woman and he wants flat chested no common sense Adria? Last but not least I eventually began just skipping through alot of it.
Lets see good things about it I liked how the story began. I loved it all the way up until view spoiler [ She runs out on our sexy hero because he's in the bed with Rachel. Why are they so in love with one another? I just didn't get that? It was twilight with werewolves Again its not so much as the book was bad i just wish the author would have focused on the love between our hero and heroine So i just wish there was more "Love" development Hopefully next book we will get that.
I will at least attmept to buy the second book because it did have potential. Jun 01, Mlpmom Book Reviewer rated it it was amazing Shelves: That sentence alone would be the one I would pick if I could only write one sentence for my review. I absolutely loved this book! And that is saying something because, as I have said numerous times before, werewolf books and I do not always get along.
I buy them, I read them, I want to like them, but very rarely do I really enjoy them. Even the popular ones that everyone raves about. Yep, we have a fascinating love hate relationship, werewolf books and I. So for me to say that Th Absolutely loved it! So for me to say that The Mayfair Moon completely captivated my attention and made it extremely hard for me to get anything else done, because hey, I didn't want to put it down! Is definitely saying something about the writing skills of Redmerski. This book had me turning the pages after, well, after the very first page. I wanted more and yes, I was sucked into Adira's love that name!
I honestly can't even tell you what was so fascinating about this book, it wasn't any one thing, it was just everything. The characters, the plot, the mystery, the action, the romance. I just really enjoyed it all. The writing was excellent and everything flowed together so nicely for me. To be honest I am amazed that not only is this book self published editing is amazing but that this is her debut novel as well.
I will definitely be picking up the second book in the series because I really can't wait to read it. I have a feeling that I will be dropping everything that day to get it read. I give this one a very solid 4. Aug 26, Lainey rated it liked it. So, I'm planning on reading a lot of Redmerski's other books since she's written a lot and y'all know how her In the Company of Killers series is one of my top faves.
This book was all right. It's kind of like Twilight, just written better and focuses on werewolves. There were a few cheesy parts but it's super addicting and I read it in a couple days so it's super fast-paced. I also like the author, and that just makes my enjoyment level higher.
The Mayfair Moon: The Darkwoods Trilogy, Book 1 ebook downloads
I really enjoyed this werewolf story. It has action, intrigue, and love. The story moves fast. Isaac Mayfair stole my heart. His cold, distant demeanor pulled me in, and then his warm feelings for Adria kept me motionless beside them. To read this review and more pop by my blog, Drugs Called Books It's more like 2. This book was a major disappointment to me.
I heard so much good things about it, from people whose opinion I hold in high regards, and it disappointed in almost every aspect. It made me cringe at parts, and for me it didn't flow, caught in my ear and was simply awful.
The Mayfair Moon (Darkwoods Trilogy, book 1) by J A Redmerski
I sometimes wondered if To read this review and more pop by my blog, Drugs Called Books It's more like 2. I sometimes wondered if I were reading the same book my friends did, because they flattered Redmerski's writing, whereas I hated every bit of it. Also, the writing took the edge of parts.
Like in the beginning the werewolf attack. As a reader, that was not scary at all, which is a shame. It's something that obviously had great impact on the characters, so I would've liked to be able to understand it. Instead, all I could think about was that they were acting over dramatic I will say there were parts I liked, mostly the description of the change to a werewolf and some of the fight descriptions in the end.
It was Twilight without the vampires, only the werewolves, in a way. You've got the whole moving to a new city, not being used to the climate there, dreading being the new girl, wishing no one will force her to introduce herself, falling in love with one of the guys who are "different" than the rest of us, being introduced into his life and family--and not being liked by all of them. Finding out he's not human and that his family is kind of amazing, and that the bad guy is interested in her because there is something about her she might not smell like a delicacy, but she smells of controlled power instead, apparently Of course it's not Twilight because they're werewolves instead, duh!
I really disliked her "voice" at first because it felt so nonchalant and indifferent when she was talking about the fact she basically lived in an abusive home! I also kind of disliked the whole; "I never do anything to make myself look pretty but I guess I'm doing something right because no one ever accused me of being ugly Her logic made no sense at times.
Like that one time she concluded Ashes and his brother knew Alex because they called her Alexandra If someone looks you up - they'll find your given name - not the one you tell your buddies to call you. I would've been much more surprised if they knew to call her Alex Then there was the whole thing of deciding Issac was a jerk because Said she shouldn't be there? Just based on that? I could understand her man-slut comment--it didn't look pretty bad for him--but the jerk thing?
And I hated what she did with Issac, the whole view spoiler [telling him she'd never ask him to Turn her, than two chapters later telling his she'd ask his brother to! At least Bella was upfront with Edward from the beginning! Issac - after this Adria rant, it's time to move to our leading man - Issac. His was a character that felt completely flat for me. To me, it was like he had no personality.
Just a cupboard character, which is such a big shame. Because he felt this way to me, I can't really tell you much more on him. It's funny, but the characters I liked most in this story are Harry and Zia, the best friends of Adria. It wasn't good, it wasn't bad. There was't much reason for them to fall in love. And on the one hand that bothered me, and on the other Bet you're wondering how that works. Easy; in a corner of my mind a voice nagged at me, saying 'he loves her? I was completely indifferent about it all.
Even my usual hatred for romances with lack of development couldn't bring me to care enough about this book to be outraged. I couldn't even summon my usual disbelief about the way Adria behaved like she was his girlfriend when she met him twice. It was just liked; yeah, whatever. It reminded me of the ending of Existence, which coincidentally is the only thing I like about that book, in which Dank I didn't make up that name!
I love how you find more details about it the more you look; like how at first they're just a couple, but when you look closer you suddenly realize something about his hand is And then you see the claws. I still decided to do something I usually don't do and put this book at three stars on Goodreads instead of two, as I usually round down. This book was not good. It was not bad, either - a sentence you might notice repeats a lot in this review.
Some parts of this book I liked, like the battle in the end, and the ending, and some dialogues in between. Most of the book I was indifferent about, but I could see that had more to do with the fact I disliked the writing style than anything else.

Truthfully, I think I might've liked this book if someone else wrote it, as weird as it may sound. The writing put me off so much, and I could understand how someone not bothered by the writing will like it, and so--despite not liking this book--I felt bad for it, and felt like it didn't belong with the rest two-stars, so I decided to round up. It was just kind of In general, the writing made it difficult for me to hold the book for long. But I could see the appeal of this book and could say that had it been written differently, I might've liked it, and so - I gave it 2. Apr 19, Belkis rated it really liked it Shelves: Very good read indeed!
Can't wait to jump into book two to find out what happens next with Isaac and Adria. The whole story was quite interesting. The writing style and main character intonation complemented the storyline perfectly. Adria's voice captured her high school teenage persona convincingly and she came across as a sincere level headed teenager who regretfully had been dealt a less than perfect hand by fate but somehow managed to stay strong and make the best of things. I liked the auth Very good read indeed! I liked the author's views on werewolves and the fact that she didn't over romantize it or try to riddle it with over the top mythical pixie dust.
I liked the characters in this first book. The fact that the story wasn't simply focused on the relationship between Adria and Isaac but that family ties and friendships were well developed throughout and played an important role. I felt that the characters were nicely developed on both Adria's and Isaac's sides. I especially enjoyed the fact that the story kept me engaged from start to end. I didn't feel any unnecessary lapses or anything overly rushed. The story held enough mysteries and suspense that weren't unbearably overplayed to the point of exasperation. Hate when stories do that sort of thing!
You know the thing. Where a story builds and builds and just keeps adding questions and suspense throughout most of the book to then stockpile every answer and outcome into the last quarter of the book making it feel slow and torturous for three quarters to the point that you want to scream only to have all the answers bombard at you like a rampamt locomotive plowing relentlessly through the last quarter of the book.
Not the case here I'm very happy to say. The consistently flowing pace was in fact one of my favorite aspects of this book. It kept me engaged with just enough suspense, character development, relationship and interactions, drama, action, all in perfect amounts and nicely laid out with seamless articulation. Very satisfying read overall. Will most definitely be jumping into book two of this well woven tale. View all 6 comments. Mar 02, Jennifer Lee rated it liked it Recommends it for: Actual Rating if you are sickenly obsessed with Superntural like me is 3.
And if you don't like Supernatural, then this is all I have to say to you: So the reason this book got an extra half a star rating is because of the mention of Supernatural. Yes, I'm giving it half a star beacuse it mentions a TV show that I love. Also I'd like to say that I squealed like a little girl when this came in the mail. It was my first goodr Actual Rating if you are sickenly obsessed with Superntural like me is 3. It was my first goodreads giveaway win, and it was signed by the author which also made me super giddy and happy.
So first I want to thank J. Redmerski for providing me with a copy. Now that I've got all the fangirlism and squealing out of the way, it's time to review this bad boy. So the premise of novel is about a girl named Adria and her sister Alex. They have a pretty shitty home life, with a drunk abuse step dad and a mom that seems, for lack of a better description, weak. The mom is more the child then they are, so the two sisters have sort of taken it upon themselves to take care of her. One day while walking home from the park, the girls happen upon 2 werevolves fighting, and they get kicked around a bit.
So, because of the bruises and stuff, the social services thinks it was the step dad's doing and takes the girls and send them to live with their uncle in Maine. At this point the story really picks up. Her sister starts acting wierd and hanging out with the wrong crowd, and really, just being a bitch.
I really liked the relationship between Adria and Alex, even though we didn't get to see too much of it before it went sour. I was genuingly sad for Adria when her sister turned for the worst, they seemed really close. I can say that right now, I loooooved the fact that there was no unneccessary love triangles. I can't vouche for the rest of the series, but as it is now, their doesn't seem to be another love interest on the horizon. It also took me a long time longer then it was suppose to I'm sure to figure out what the Mayfair family was.
It was completely obvious, but apparently I was dropped on my head when I was a kid. The only things I didn't particularly like are: I liked her to an extent, but I usually go for MC's that can survive, kick ass, shoot guns, and wield badass swords. She wasn't neccessarily weak, and she was definitely no Bella, but I couldn't see her winning a fight. She was sassy though, and I liked that. Don't get me wrong, he's one hot tamale did I really just say that? I don't particularly like it when the love interest doing things like that, reminds me too much of Twilight.
He didn't really stop her from doing things, like a controlling douche, so that earned some respect from me, but he did stalk her in a not so stalker way, so I'm not too sure how I feel about it. But all in all, it was a fun read, I really enjoyed the storym and I found that it was hard to stop reading. I will definitely be picking up the sequel, and I'm looking forward too it. This was my first werewolf book I've read and I might actually read some more. If you like werewolves or paranormal books, then this is something you will like, so pick it up and give it a read.
I want to point out one more awesome thing about this book: They are REAL werewolves, not men that turn into wolves, but men that turn into werewolves. They are nasty and I loved it! I was provided a copy by the author and goodreads for reviwing. This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers. To view it, click here. I just had to DNF this book. And I just have to rant about it. I'm sorry, I love YA romance and I can suspend certain beliefs for the betterment of the reading experience Isaac and Adria's love at first sight is completely without chemistry and based on At least in a similarly ridiculous book like Twilight --even though the fact their love was also based on virtually nothing--you could actually believe it a little bit.
I mean, at I just had to DNF this book. I mean, at least Bella's blood smelled like wicked awesome vampire ambrosia to Edward and she was the only person ever whose thoughts Edward couldn't read - So as least least you felt like the characters actually had a tie - even if it was small. There was SOME chemistry. Um, first of all, Adria, you have no earthly reason to be upset.
You aren't married, dating, and haven't really spoken more than a few words to each other EVER so your response is asinine. But if we play a long and say Adria did have a reason to be upset? He was half-naked and rounding second base with someone other than you - despite supposedly having feelings for you? This is what we adults call a red flag. And sure, he explains this incident later, during a melodramatic apology in which he forces the female shifter to tell Adria there is nothing going on.
They tell Adria he was "sick and messed up on drugs" and that the female shifter took advantage of him. But later in the story, when he admits to being a werewolf, he explains to her that they can't get sick I thought he couldn't get sick Cause Isaac never clarifies and Adria who was so supposedly torn up over it never even asks! After that, we find out Isaac and his "family" are originally from Siberia seriously?
And the patriarch of the family Isaac's dad is going to be going back there with the rest of the family. Because he is just so in love with Adria that he can't leave. I'm sorry, but I just don't respect that at all. At this point, I gave up. I understand the whole power of instant love and attraction and it driving you to do things, but since I didn't feel any connection or relationship between Isaac and Adria, I just couldn't fathom him giving up his family for this 3 week relationship. Also, between that and the inconsistencies, I was just done. I guess I've just reached the point where I think why finish reading this drivel where there is so much other good stuff out there.
Jun 23, Sarah Kalaitzidis rated it it was amazing Shelves: In most of the werewolf books I read, they turn into a wolf. In this book, the werewolves turn into Lycans, or half man-half beast. There is so much character diversity, but they all fit and work well together. Adria is the main character of this book. She was close to her sister Alex, back when they lived in Athens, Georgia. Alex acted like a more like a mom then their real mom, and taught Adria things like how to drive stick in a car.
They were sisters and looked a lot a like, but Adria always wondered why boys liked her sister more. After a incident that caused the sisters to move away to Maine, things changed between them.

Adria learned to deal with the incident and even tried to put it behind her. She went to a new school and managed to make her friends right away. Harry is the normal person of the bunch. He likes to skateboard, and is actually quite good at it. They could talk about anything, and she loves to spend time with him.
He has a crush on Zia, someone who Adria met back at school for a brief moment. Only later did they became friends, when Zia picked Adria up from the highway after crashing her bike. Read to find out why she crashed! Zia is a great fun person, who really cares for Adria. Isaac is very quite when Adria first meets him. It's to the extent that even people who'd rather not listen to him can't help but do so. The romance in this book was slow, just the way I like it. It took time for the two characters to learn to trust each other and to start liking each other.
The attraction was instant, but them becoming a couple and loving each other took time. They did have some bumps along the road like jealous girls who also want Isaac, not to mention that while she is human he is something completely different. Though nothing broke them apart from loving each other all the way to to end of the book. The plot line of this story is what drew me into this type of werewolf book.
It was written very well, and character development was also well done. I loved every moment of it.
