How to Flirt With a Naked Werewolf




How to Flirt with a Naked Werewolf
By: Molly Harper


Goodreads Synopsis







Northern Exposure


Even in Grundy, Alaska, it’s unusual to find a naked guy with a bear trap clamped to his ankle on your porch. But when said guy turns into a wolf, recent southern transplant Mo Wenstein has no difficulty identifying the problem. Her surly neighbor Cooper Graham—who has been openly critical of Mo’s ability to adapt to life in Alaska—has trouble of his own. Werewolf trouble.



For Cooper, an Alpha in self-imposed exile from his dysfunctional pack, it’s love at first sniff when it comes to Mo. But Cooper has an even more pressing concern on his
mind. Several people around Grundy have been the victims of wolf attacks, and
since Cooper has no memory of what he gets up to while in werewolf form, he’s
worried that he might be the violent canine in question.


If a wolf cries wolf, it makes sense to listen, yet Mo is convinced that Cooper is not the culprit. Except if he’s not responsible, then who is? And when a werewolf falls
head over haunches in love with you, what are you supposed to do anyway? The
rules of dating just got a whole lot more complicated. . . .




This book was super cute.

While predictable at some points, a little rushed in others, a kinda "wait.... they're going at it right now?" at times, it was the perfect distraction for a girl that whose electricity was beat down by tornado baddys. It was the perfect fluffernutter in these dark times. (cuz I had no power and could only read in the daytime)

I can't tell you how many paranormal books make me a tad bit mad when the heroin is all butt-kicking, sword wielding, with abs on top of abs kinda girl in her early 20s.



Is she in this one?





Nope!! In this book the girly is your normal run of the mill 30 year old, short order cook, with vegan loving parents whose ready to break away from Mommy and Daddy and try to find her own life.

Ok... maybe that's not completely normal.

Mo (whose full name is revealed more in the book) has hippy-dippy parents with a big side order of meddle. Think Dharma and Greg meet Ray Barone's parents.

Yikes! right?

Always stopping by with wheat germ as they go through your bills and give lectures on how a happy colon is achieve by not hitting the drive through at Jack in the Box



(note: Greta loves Jack in the Box and that was her attempt at a prompt for Jack in the Box to love her back and give her free cheeseburgers)



To get away from the whole mess Mo decides to leave her Mississippi life in search of seclusion and a breather away from her love bead toting parents over in Alaska. Everyone in Grundy appear normal ... But what Mo doesn't realize is that there's one local in particular with a bit of a wild side who just so happens to get naked whenever things get hairy.

(cuz the local hotty always has a wild side - WOOF! )

It's a very squeeful book that will leave you snickering all the way through. I'm here to tell you that the author sure does have a way with words. My favorite phrase was "Mighty Morphin Power Penis". LOLZ! Just fab!

Also, the cover is too cute!! I mean... Just look at those feet!! Adorable!




I recommend this book to all who need a light hearted romp in the woods and want to get away from angsty angst books. This won't let you down.

A pure delight and a fast read! I can't wait to read the next one!
