Book Description
Five years ago they landed on Earth -- thirty-one aliens, fugitives from a lifetime of hardship, slavery, and cruelty. Now they were dispersed among the populace, unidentifiable because of their shape-shifting abilities. Forms they were locked into during the day, but not at night. Not while under the light of the moon.
Jebaral had watched his people go, frightened children scattered like ashes in the wind. They had landed on this remote world, hoping for a life. A chance to be free. It was all they could hope for.
But when he met Hannah Pitt, something happened. Something totally unexpected. And for the first time in years Jeb realized there were people on this planet in greater need of help. And protection. And freedom.
Yet, there was no way he could turn away from her or from the feelings she evoked in him. But neither could he accept her offer of a future filled with laughter and promise. After all, she was human; he was nothing remotely human. Worse still, the Arra were out looking for their lost cargo and they wouldn't stop until every last body was accounted for. Jeb knew that if finding the runaways meant killing a few unimportant inhabitants, they wouldn't hesitate.
It was only a matter of time until the Arra reached Earth. Could he love Hannah and then leave her to keep her out of harm's way? Or should he abandon her now before committing himself to her, and not take the chance? Would she even accept him for what he truly was?
Little did he realize that all his choices would soon be taken away.
Reviews
I was so captivated by the passion between Jeb and Hannah that I couldn't read fast enough to see what would happen next. Linda Mooney is a terrific author and her fantastic tale proves that she has a bright future. I highly anticipate her next book and hope that is the start of a wonderful new series. ~ Angel, Romance Junkies
If you like your man to be strong, gentle and able to defend your honor then this is the book for you. That strong man who rushes in to save the weak damsel in distress just makes your heart go ahhh and knees go weak this is that story. Ms. Mooney has done well. This book was well written and paced appropriately. JEBARAL will pleasantly keep you company for afternoon read. ~ Robin S., My Book Cravings
"This imaginiative book is well written, and has the warmth and togetherness I expect from a good romance, and for that I give it 5 red roses." ~ Anne, Red Roses for Authors
"Hot Alien Love"
Runner's Moon: Jebaral is a wonderful introduction to the Ruinos aliens with hints of more to follow. Hannah and Jebaral are both well-drawn characters who have been wounded, but with acceptance and kindness from each other are able to triumph and find strength together... along with a little hot alien love. I'm looking forward to more from the Ruinos aliens. ~ Clover Autrey, ParaNormal Romance Reviews
"Ms. Mooney tells a wonderful story of love, passion, and trust. These characters leap off the pages. Getting to know them so well is almost as if they are your good friends. I cannot wait to see what happens next in this series and I hope that Simolif will finally find his life partner. I could not get enough of Hannah and Jebaral. They were great!" ~ Krista, Coffee Time Romance
"Runners Moon: Jebaral is a fantastic look at the healing power of love and the hope of a future together by two people who may be of different species, but love with all their hearts. This story is wonderful. The author truly draws the reader in to the lives of the characters. I, for one, can't wait to read Book 2!" ~ Brandy Jones, The Long and the Short of It
This book has it all, romance, science fiction and adventure...I could not put this book down, I had to finish it. The characters are so compelling. You just had to know what happens next. I loved the interaction between the two characters. The gentleness of the hero made you kind of misty eyed. And the heroine made you feel the same things that she did. The writing in this book was so real it made you look up and wonder and maybe even hope a little.
Ms. Mooney, what can I say about her besides the fact she is a GREAT author. An author with such a vivid storytelling ability. An author who makes you root for her heroes and heroines. An author who makes you cry when the charaters do. It has been awhile since a story has touched me like this and made me cry. And I cannot wait for more. ~ Melanie, Enchanting Reviews
For a romance that will warm your heart and stimulate your imagination, you can't go wrong with JEBARAL. I can't wait to read the next books in the Runner's Moon series, TIRON (coming in December) and SIMOLIF (arriving in April 2008). Stop by Whiskey Creek Press Torrid and get your copy of this tender love story today. ~ Lori Ann, Romance Reviews Today Erotic
"The damsel-in-distress theme takes on a whole new look when the hero is an alien. That's the premise of this first Runner's Moon series adventure. The interaction and erotic scenes between two species are well done, and Mooney injects enough reality to make the well-paced plot believable. The story comes to a satisfying conclusion, but the adventure will continue." ~ Gail Pruszkowski for Romantic Times BOOKreviews
"Linda Mooney has done an intriguing job of introducing this series to readers. Jebaral, with his heartwarming blood line pulsing just beneath his handsome skin, is a hero who elicits a strong response. His plight, although unusual, is one that had me instantly rooting for him to find a resolution to. I wanted him to find happiness with Hannah, and the obstacles thrown in their path were at times frightening. This was an engaging, well written story. " ~ Marlene, Fallen Angel Reviews
Such an attention-grabbing premise for a series! Fortunately, the author lives up to the anticipation. I truly enjoyed this book. The plot was well thought out and kept you interested throughout. Both Jeb and Hannah grab at the reader, they embody a combination of strength and vulnerability that makes you want to see them succeed and be happy. Though the threat of the Arra adds spice to he story and action at key points this is by no means a suspense novel, so don't expect that. This is a fiery and fascinating romance novel and an fabulous account of aliens come to earth. ~ AMG, The Romance Studio
The characters are truly amazing. Their many problems lead to some extreme breathtaking, non-stop action scenes. This is a story you can't put down. It quickly captures your attention and keeps it with its action and passion. New characters are introduced during times of great action that leaves you wanting to know them better, such as Jebaral's brother. RUNNER'S MOON: JEBARAL by Linda Mooney, is an exciting and passionate romance that leaves you anxiously waiting for the next book in the series. - Top Pick, Recommended Read ~ Reviewed by Anita, Romance Reader at Heart
