How Moon Chasers Began
Sharie Kohler, better known as Sophie Jordan, launched Moon Chasers in 2007, drawing on her love for horror films and classic love stories. A former high school English teacher, Kohler crafted the series under her pseudonym to explore darker, more sensual themes than her historical and young adult romances. Inspired by werewolf mythology, she envisioned a world where lycans roam under the full moon, hunted by a clandestine group sworn to protect humanity. The result was a series that married gritty action with emotional depth, earning praise from authors like Kresley Cole and Lara Adrian.
The Heart of Moon Chasers
The series kicks off with Marked by Moonlight (2007), where timid schoolteacher Claire Morgan is bitten by a lycan and faces transformation unless hunter Gideon March can break her curse. Their sizzling chemistry sets the tone for the series’ blend of romance and suspense. In Kiss of a Dark Moon (2008), rogue huntress Kit March defies tradition, clashing with hybrid agent Rafe Santiago in a tale of betrayal and forbidden attraction. To Crave a Blood Moon (2009) follows psychic Ruby Deveraux and captive Sebastian Santiago, whose escape from a lycan den sparks a high-stakes hunt. Finally, A Soul So Wicked (2012) closes the saga with ancient lycan Darius seeking redemption alongside demon witch Tresa, battling a curse that threatens their love.
Moon Chasers shines through its themes of redemption and identity, exploring whether love can triumph over monstrous instincts. The series’ urban fantasy setting—spanning gritty alleys to icy tundras—grounds its supernatural stakes in raw, emotional conflicts. Kohler’s fast-paced prose and vivid world-building create a mythology where hunters break their own codes for a chance at love, making each book a standalone yet interconnected adventure.
Why Moon Chasers Resonates
Despite its niche status, Moon Chasers has carved a loyal following among paranormal romance fans for its bold heroines and brooding heroes. Readers praise its steamy love scenes and unpredictable plots, with reviews highlighting the series’ ability to stand out in a crowded werewolf genre. Kohler’s exploration of moral ambiguity—hunters wrestling with their prejudices, lycans seeking humanity—adds depth that resonates long after the final page. Though the series concluded in 2012, its cult appeal endures, offering a timeless escape for those craving dark, romantic thrills.
