Publisher's Summary:
You never know what destiny has in store....
A rugged loner and ex-biker-gang member, Duke Dawson is looking for some peace and quiet while recovering from an accident. But when Anna Romo comes wandering through his woods and into his cabin, she completely rocks his world. The last thing he expected or wanted was to find himself hungering after a woman whose eyes held hurt even deeper than his own....
Running from a troubled past, Anna is building a new life in Destiny. When she first meets Duke, she's terrified - but something about him calls to her very soul. The hard-bodied rebel is soon helping her turn her new home into a bed and breakfast, and close quarters quickly lead them into her bed. Their passion is palpable, but can she convince a man who has turned his back on life to take the biggest leap of faith of all and fall in love?

nice but not thrilling
I bought this because I REALLY enjoyed Toni Blake's other Destiny novel, "One Reckless Summer" that tells us the story of Mick and Jenny. Very real, very emotional with plenty of heat and you really cared about both the hero and heroine. Here In Half Moon HIll, I really wanted to enjoy this couple, Anna a Duke the biker dude who I did like together, BUT I felt I never got a real chance to! They have quick encounters, a smidge of dialogue and then we're off to each character having a super long monologue discussion with her/himself about their reactions and thoughts to said exchange. CONSTANTLY!!! And SO we barely get enough long meaningful exchanges and experiences between the two (oh we're told about them here and there) so that I did not get a complete picture of these two-- to experience them as the reader. I don't want to be told about it. It just got so very tedious and kept on in this vein. And they are quite likable and I liked them together but I felt cheated!
Then a heck of a lot of attention is given to a diary of a lovelorn teen our heroine finds in the attic and reads and we read it along with her. Not that interesting! I wanted more Duke and Anna, not Cathy and Robert!!! I found this really annoying and distracting.
And although there was a great backstory here to Duke's pain it was not used to its fullest. (See Mick in Reckless Summer!!) ANd then it all gets wrapped up pretty darned quickly. A nice read, but I did not find it satisfying at all. Sorry!
Duke and Destiny!!! Loved it!
Half Moon Hill is the 6th book in the Destiny Series by Toni Blake. I keep thinking, every time I read a Destiny book, "this one is my favorite!" Then I read the next one and feel the same way again, it's wonderful!
Anna Romo is the long lost sister of the Romo clan who feels quite out of place after returning to Destiny at first. After buying an old Victorian mansion, making friends, and bonding with her family, she begins to enjoy the quaint town. The only glitch is that she has become a bit of a loner. Enter Duke who turns her world upside down!
Duke Dawson is a big sexy biker man living in a cabin in Anna's woods to escape the trauma and emotional turmoil going on in his life until he figures out a plan. When Anna and Duke stumble upon each other in the woods, it leads to a deal that Duke will help fix up Anna's house to get it ready for her bed and breakfast business.
