Available: paperback & multiformat digital

“Pitch-perfect” is a cliché when it comes to book reviewing, but nothing less describes this fun paranormal romance from Molly Harper. Mo is a woman so desperate to escape her overwhelming hippie mother that she moves all the way to Alaska. She ends up in the tiny town of Grundy, where bears and elk roam, where the whole town (it seems) is looking for a wife, and where her neighbor just happens to be a werewolf. Cooper has a number of secrets of his own, including his lust for the pretty new outsider. Before Mo and Cooper can get together Cooper has to face up to his past, both emotionally and literally.

How to Flirt with a Naked Werewolf is a fun book, driven by a lead that’s enchanting, hilarious and stubbornly charming. There’s enough mystery and danger to keep things exciting, but this book shouldn’t be confused with a horror novel or even an urban fantasy. Fun all the way through, How to Flirt with a Naked Werewolf hooks its claws in early and drags readers along for an off-beat, wilderness-spiked ride. It’s a highly recommended and quite enjoyable addition to public and paranormal-loving private collections.
