Saari Mitchell sees a psychologist in order to understand why-500 years later-she's still dreaming of her dead lover. Her shrink isn't helping, the nightmares come every time she closes her eyes, and the lack of sleep is interfering with her job at Sacred Heart Hospital. With her psychic ability to heal the human spirit on the fritz, her auric radar becomes as reliable as her spotty cell phone service.
By day, Dhelis Guidry works as a detective for the New Angeles Police Department investigating the missing or murdered women in the Full-Moon Killer case. In his spare time he hunts rogue vampires as a Tueri executioner.
Brogan Vincent is a Tueri healer. Though he could offer his miraculous talents to the rich and powerful, he has chosen anonymity and peace by only using his psychic abilities among the Tueri.
One look into Saari's tri-colored eyes and both men realize she is Tueri. One touch tells them each she's their soul mate. But can either of them protect her from the Full-Moon Killer?
Moonlight Bleu is a novel that I was actually blessed to receive from the author. She actually contacted me first, which is usually the opposite in my typical arc dealings. Due to my studies at college I have been so overwhelmed and overloaded among many other things; which has hindered me in the delay of this review and others as well. So I am happy to announce that I have finally been able to finish and post the review for Renee and you readers alike.
As I said above Renee actually contacted me in regards of doing a review for her. She actually sent me the arc autographed, and included a hand-written personal letter. I thought it was such an endearing and professional thing to do, especially considering most people now-a-days lack the personal touches on such things (including myself at times)!
I was a bit confused on the lands and places. I think it would have been nice to include a map of the areas so us visual people could get an idea of where things were located. There was a scene with Thana & Dhelis that read with an intensity but seemed to have a sense of disconnect. To make up for that remark, I found it intriguing to read about Tueri's. These are a paranormal group of people whom I have never heard of and never read about either. It was such an interesting concept with their stone rider's, pairings and "powers".
Although it's relevant to the flow of the story, it seems as if it took foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrr for Brogan to be introduced into the story. I actually found myself liking his character more than Dhelis. The council scene with Saari, Brogan, Dhelis & Josie seemed like a huge snowball effect. Although it cleared up some story flow and consistency, that part IMO, should have been further prolonged?!
Several of the last chapters were action packed. I think a little delayed, but specifically chapters 30-end made up for it. There was no resolution with the psycho bitch, Josie. However the ending was feasible if there will be a continuation into the story. I just feel that there wasn't a complete ending since you are not sure of what will happen with the Trigonal Pair.

"Evil, soullessness- it's not defined by what you are, only by what you do. How you live your life, choosing not to deliberately harm others, that's what defines a person's soul."
