MY REVIEW.

4.5 Stars from Tiffany!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lots of Pages, Lots of Story.

Luna Mare is a beautifully written love story by Pepper Winters, whom I have been a fan of for years. After When a Moth Loved a Bee, I wasn’t sure what to expect and found myself pleasantly surprised. Yes, it’s quite the hefty read in pages, however it’s also a hefty read about love and loss. We span years with Nerida and Aslan, the only way a storyline like this would work and this review will be vague as to protect it.

“Your heart will never be perfect again, though. Losing loved ones always leave cracks, but…eventually…those cracks become the strongest part of you.”

Nerida was only twelve when she helped rescue sixteen-year-old Aslan from the sea. She is a child of the sea, so is naturally drawn and curious about the boy with a name that translates to Lion. I was iffy about her character, especially as she got older. As a young girl, bossy Nerida was easier to handle as compared to her selfish teenage ways.

Aslan is a young man of mystery and a grown man of even more. You can’t help but love his character, ever grateful and ready to do anything for his rescuers, Nerida, and her parents. It’s not like he had many choices and decided early on that he would make the most of it with his new family. There was one line that wasn’t to be crossed and as the years go on, that line gets blurrier and blurrier.

“She wore her bravery to shield her. She used my love to heal her. Yet no matter how much I loved her or how fiercely I gave her what she needed…she’d become like me.”

Talk about a wild ride! We have been with Nerida and Aslan for five years while their lives seem to change week by week. Pepper Winters is a beautiful wordsmith, and this book is no exception. I found myself reading for hours trying to get to the part where the shoe was going to drop. Finally, at 96% I remembered this was a duet and was slightly crushed that I’ll have to wait. It’s a beautiful and slightly dark tale of love, loss, acceptance and putting yourself before others. While a page count such as this usually freaks me out, the story was riveting, and I felt like I couldn’t put it down!
