Wait Until Moonrise Kindle Edition

by Teri Thackston (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
3.8 out of 5 stars 16 ratings
Doors that close by themselves. Items that move without human help. Visions of a handsome spirit in the moonlight. Visiting the Welsh castle that is her ancestral home, Bria Leighton is frightened by eerie happenings.

Unseen. Unheard. Untouched. Desperately lonely. For more than two hundred years, a curse has trapped Nicholas Pierce, the last Earl of Beaumarith, in his family castle. The words of the wicked sorceress hint that the curse can be broken, but the riddle of moonrise and true love’s embrace seems impossible to solve.

Impossible until Bria walks into his castle and into his heart. She sees him, hears him…touches him. He must convince her that she is not losing her mind but that he is real…and only she can break the spell.

But Bria is only a visitor, coming to grips with a past she has forgotten, secrets revealed, and an alcoholic fiancé whose behavior grows ever more erratic. To complicate matters further, the wicked sorceress Saffira has returned to claim Nicholas for herself. While seeking her past, will Bria become the true love of a centuries-old earl…or will she find herself eternally cursed as well?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Teri Thackston is a native Texan and life-long lover of storytelling. Her award-winning novels cover the spectrum of romance, from suspense to paranormal to historical. Her very first novel--a blatant rip-off of the popular television series Get Smart--was written when she was at the wise old age of eleven years and will never--to the delight of readers everywhere--see the light of publication. Her more original works are seeing that light today and she hopes that fact will delight those same readers.

    5.0 out of 5 stars DON'T WAIT UNTIL MOONRISE TO READ THIS UNIQUE PARANORMAL ROMANCE!!!
    Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2016
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    i waited for a long time to find this book in print form with a good price...received it day before yesterday, am reading it aloud to my husband (don't tell him I've already finished ahead of him). This book has everything...pretty heroine, wicked witch, handsome hero two hundred years out of place! A twist on the Snow White story...but instead of the prince waking Snow White with a kiss, the heroine may be called upon to do more than kiss the hero in order to save him from the witch's curse!
    You won't want to stop reading...even on the final page!
    Is there a sequel in the works, Teri?

    I thought the story was interesting. I enjoyed the storyline and characters. I have the Audiobook and the ebook and found it interesting that the Audiobook skipped intimate scenes (& the scenes weren't as descriptive as some books). The narrator did a nice job with the various characters too. Overall, this is an enjoyable book.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Is It a Ghost Story?
    Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2012

    or a witch story?

    or maybe a story about the invisible man?

    Maybe all 3.

    Regardless, this is an excellent paranormal, a story in which you will literally love the MCs, and hate the villainess passionately (except maybe not too much, but you have to read it to see).

    I just enjoyed this novel and devoured it in record time.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable book.
    Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2012
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    The only part I didn't take to, was the fact that there was an odd pairing of main characters in the beginning of the novel that didn't fit.
    A young, virginal lady (present time) engaged to an alocholic cowboy that wanted to get into her pants at any opportunity, didn't work for me.
    This mixture gave off confusing signals to the reader about the plot and the ethics of the Heroine.
    Otherwise, tight writing. Hauntingly, para/rom.

    What a wonderful book! I fell in love with the hero who is cursed for not being in love or even lust with a sorceress.
    This author easily conveyed the emotions of the characters, and with some unexpected twists and turns in the plot, I found myself unable to put this book down.
    I highly recommend it and can't wait to read more from this author.

    I normally read straight historical romance, but I loved this book by Teri Thackston. I started it Sunday night and was done by Monday night. Everything else got pushed to the wayside. The writing is very well done and the characters well developed. I have a favorite scene between Nicholas and Bria but won't ruin it for other readers. Anyone looking for a little bit of magic and a little bit of love need look no further.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Sweet romance with a beautiful time travel element
    Reviewed in the United States on December 22, 2012
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    One of my favorite romances of all time is Jude Deveraux's "A Knight in Shining Armor," and this book has bits and pieces that really remind me of that book, which is why I enjoyed it so much. It evokes the same emotions as you root for the tormented hero and heroine to finally come together through time and space in what you know is just meant to be. Beautifully written.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Bad, bad and more bad
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 5, 2013
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    Awful, cheesy and dated. It is blatantly obvious that the author is not from Wales, and has no clue how we speak here, she also seems believes that we are all stuck in the 1700's and look for magic around every corner.

    I have never once used the words "Tis" and "Twas" in a conversation, yet the author continually writes her characters talking like this, even though the novel is apparently based in the 21st century!

    The main character is so virginal I almost expected to read about her wearing a chastity belt. Now I'm all for respecting a women's choice to wait until she gets married before having sex, but it was annoying to have her portrayed as almost angelic for her innocence, and that she dressed conservatively all the time blah blah blah. It just so unrealistic that a modern woman would travel all the way from the USA with her fiancé to a tiny town in Wales, all the while fighting off his rape attempts, because she wants to remain pure just to give it up for a cursed magical man because he doesn't try to force her to have sex.

    I can't recommend this novel at all. I was bored through 80% of it, and spent the remaining time laughing incredulously at her rubbish portrayal of Welsh people, and skim reading. The only person I think who would like this is my Nan, because it has that old fashioned, out of date Mills and Boon feeling to it. I would say it's a must miss for anyone else.
