Tsubaki is determined to listen to his head over his heart and keep clear lines drawn between them, but there's no helping it; Makino's affections win him over despite his best efforts. Even though it might be a bad idea to mix business with pleasure, an impulsive hook-up turns into something more!

"Our two leads understand what they're missing out on in life, and finding it in each other was cute. I also credit the narrative for how it wraps up the story threads by the end. When we finally reached that point, I was admittedly emotional." — MrAJCosplay
"Are you attracted to the idea of a man who you so enamored that he can't control himself? A love interest who is more beast than man? So strong and mysterious that he might even be dangerous? That's what A Beast's Love Is Like the Moon has to offer: a supernatural romance with Twilight vibes, where the love interest is an ancient and unknowable creature who perplexingly wants nothing more than the first young ingenue to show up at his doorstep." — Lauren Orsini
