3.5 Stars
A cute, sweet story about Dylan, Eli, and their slow courtship. Dylan’s heart was broken quite a few years ago and his trust is shattered. In the intervening years, he hasn’t gone out to find anyone. His best friend Jack, and Jack’s wife, drag Dylan to events in order to help him socialize and in hope he meets someone. At a club, he meets Eli, who’s immediately attracted to Dylan, and Dylan has mixed feelings with his attraction for Eli. After an awkward start, they agree to take it slow because Dylan’s not much of a spontaneous kind of person. The author did a good job of setting the slow pace of their romance.
Dylan is hesitant, insecure about his ability to keep a beautiful man like Eli interested in him. Little does he know that Eli was smitten with him at first sight. For Eli, Dylan is ‘the One,’ and he knew the moment he set eyes on him at the club. Eli is quite the philosopher and courts Dylan, gently and attentively. The author gradually hints that Eli is not quite all that he seems, and I liked the slow reveal.
There was quite a bit of dialogue, which I liked, and which worked well in the story. When the story switched to monologue, I noticed the telling rather than the showing. Other than that, Moondrop is a sweet fast read with no angst. I give it 3.5 stars because of the telling and because I think this story could’ve been longer, especially with more explanation about Eli's history other than the little we're told, and what exactly happens with him in his other form. Does he not remember he's also human? How did the dragon shifters come to be? Also, what did Dylan's student mean when she said Dylan had the shine? There's a lot missing in this story that I wish the author would expand upon and clarify. I think this would turn out to be a much more interesting book if she did. But, despite those issues I found lacking, I raise the stars to 4 Stars for the charming story, and because the author wrote this story for free for the ‘Love is an Open Road’ event.
