Steal the Moon Thieves Book 3 edition by Lexi Blake Paranormal Romance eBooks

When the author has Zoey state the same message mutiple times, you know you should listen.

"I was just that stupid. I was really, really stupid."
"I was feeling intensely stupid."
"You’re thinking no one could be that stupid, but we both know darn well I can.” Truer words were never spoken.

Zoey is rarely happy. When she gets what she wants, she no longer wants it. "There had been a time when I would have given anything to follow Danny in here as his companion. Now I just wanted to go home." Lather, rinse, repeat.

Then there is the major problem of Zoey never paying attention.

"They tried to tell me, every single one of them." "Did I listen? No."
“I didn’t understand, Dev. I didn’t listen to you or Ingrid or anyone else."

The fate of the immortal world is up for grabs and Zoey blithely continues along withholding information that would be useful. "I had some guilt about not talking this over with Dev and Daniel."

When the author deliberately makes the character so impulsive and immature, it is hard to take her seriously when she is supposed to be heroic. Why would two driven men desperate to save their kingdoms continue to believe that her shenanigans were cute? She is nothing short of insensitive to Dev on multiple occasions.

Dev and Danny morph into frat boys early in the book as they argue over video games. “Oh, maybe mommy will kiss it better,” Daniel returned. “I killed him like forty-two times after I ate. I’ll give you your rematch tomorrow because I’ll enjoy killing you again.” We get another incarnation of their relationship later.

The best line in the book is said by Christine when there is a discussion over which lover Zoey should choose
:
“You should pick one and be miserable with your choice just like the rest of us.” Ha!

I love the plot and the writing, but am exceedingly frustrated by the juvenile heroine.

Steal the Moon Thieves Book 3 edition by Lexi Blake Paranormal Romance eBooks Reviews

My review of Book 1 is basically a series review, so instead of repeating everything, I’m going to focus more on the things I liked about this particular book.

This used to be my least favorite in the series, but upon rereading the books a couple times, I cannot fathom why. I think it was because of all the wolf shifters, but I might actually be a shifter fan if they were all as lovable as these. I feel like I appreciate the later books in the series more and more every time I read them. The development of the characters, the progression of the relationships between them, the intricacy of the overarching plot, the ever-changing emotions…

The other books may have had more heart-wrenching relationship struggles and laugh-out-loud humor, but this one had more intense moments, scenes when there was so much going on and so many things that could go wrong and so much at risk, like during the heist and during that whole big climax at the end.

Then there were the characters themselves (always the best part). Neil really wormed his way into my heart in this one (with all my rereads, I've realized he was actually super great and sweet even in the first two books, and I don't know why I didn't love him more before), and I felt for him and how lost he was. There are also a lot of new characters introduced in this one, most notably, Zack, Lee, and Declan. But they all have just as much depth and personality as the others and are their own unique people. Zoey did frustrate me at times, like with how she didn’t listen to what anyone told her about the important ceremony, but Daniel and Dev continued to grow.

Not only that, the way all the characters—Zoey, Daniel, Dev, Zack, Niel, Sarah, even Felix—worked together at the end, helping each other and protecting each other, was just beautiful. And ok, Zoey may have frustrated me at times, but that scene near the end when she was marching forward with her gun—could she get any more kick-butt than she was in that moment?! I loved it.

I will say though that this book had A LOT of sex, seemingly more than in the others, or at least that’s how it seemed the first time I read it. Maybe I’ve just become accustomed to all the sex, or maybe it’s that I know the characters better, but I wasn’t as bothered by it and noticed a lot more depth the second and third times around. I was also thrown off by the ending of Book 2 since it didn’t seem like something Daniel would agree to, but, believable or not, I came to love it. And damn it if [hidden spoiler can be found in my review on my blog or Goodreads.]

So if you can roll with the twists and the romance-y stuff, this book is another fantastic one in the series. There’s lots of wolf shifters, Daniel letting his vampire freak flag fly, Dev’s jerk of a brother whom you won’t be able to help but feel for, fighting off animated corpses, Marcus’s persuasion powers, and epic battles to look forward to!

Rating 4.5 Stars

Original Review @ Metaphors and Moonlight (link in profile)
This book started off roughly for me. I was pretty infuriated, to be honest. I found the strong Zoey I'd come to love in books #1 and #2 was lost, seemingly overrun by the two men in her life - vampire Daniel and fae Dev. I was cranky at their cliquey behaviour and boys club mentality, even if their motives were meant to protect Zoey from the demon Brixalnax, aka Halfer, they weren't helping at all. The annoying 'me man, you woman' mentality that drove me away from het romance was initially pervasive to an ersatz ménage I happen to be getting right behind.

However, from the 56% mark onwards this book ratcheted up several notches. The UF/paranormal elements went into overdrive and kick-butt Zoey was back. Neil returned to the fold, although that was way too easy, and the guys understood they could not keep the woman they love - a strong, fiercely loyal, working woman - back. They're also dropping some of the manly-man nonsense to move towards something meaningful as a triad with more harmony at it's core.

The inclusion of Lee and his brother Zack as extra werewolf muscle aggravated me at first, but I came to admire Lee as the book continued, and Zack did his job. Dev's bother, Declan, is a pompous, annoying a-hole and I'm not sure how I feel about going into Faery for the next book, but go in I shall because I am committed to this series and I have faith in the author.
