Reviews 5 Stars - Tragically mind-blowing. THE book to read of 2023! - Melissa, Goodreads 5 Stars - Lunamare is in a realm of its own -- like no other love story that you will ever read. - Cyn, Goodreads 5 Stars - Fans of the "childhood friends-to-lovers" trope will most likely love this duet as this is one of the main tropes, but be warned, this is anything but a light, breezy read. In Lunamare, you'll also get vibes such as true soulmates, "touch her and you die," a life story, secrets, betrayal, longing, lust, coming-of-age, and truly forbidden love. - Annica, Goodreads 5 Stars - Pepper's ability to write something as beautiful as this, is breathtaking. Her character development and world building skills are unmatchable. Another Masterpiece. - Jennii The Book Addict 5 Stars - This is a journey everyone needs to experience. - Heather, Goodreads 5 Stars - One of my favorite reads of the year! - Betül, Goodreads
