Marty Andrews sells Bobbie-Sue Cosmetics for a living and
is determined to make it in this business. She's already
reached Lavender Status so she's almost there. One night
while out with her teacup poodle, she gets bitten by what
she thought was just another dog. But when Marty's hair
changes color, her legs become extremely hairy, and she
starts craving meat when she's a vegetarian, she starts to
suspect something is wrong.
A gorgeous man named Keegan Flaherty shows up at Marty's
door with some disturbing news for her. He claims to be the
dog that bit her, well not a dog, he's a werewolf! So this
means Marty Andrews is a werewolf too now. Marty refuses
to believe Keegan and just writes him off as another crazy
person. Keegan gives Marty his cell phone number because
he knows she will need him when she realizes she is a
werewolf.
Shortly after, Marty is kidnapped and thrown into the trunk
of a car. While trying to fight her way out, she sprouts a
tail! There is no denying she is a werewolf now plus
someone is out to get her! Keegan comes to the rescue and
whisks Marty away to protect her from her kidnappers.
Who would want to hurt Marty Andrews? How will she work for
Bobbie-Sue Cosmetics when she is turning into a full grown
werewolf? Can she just hide her tail and go back to life as
it was before Keegan? Or will Keegan bring something new
and exciting to Marty's life, perhaps love?
THE ACCIDENTAL WEREWOLF is a chick lit paranormal romance
that I found hard to put down! Marty's antics are funny
and you can't help but feel for this woman who just wants
to fit in amongst her peers, tail or no tail!
THE ACCIDENTAL WEREWOLF is the first book in a new series
and I look forward to reading the next book ACCIDENTALLY
DEAD due out in July 2008. Dakota Cassidy is a great new
addition to the paranormal genre and I will definitely be
reading her next book.
When Marty Andrews gets bitten by a mangy mutt while
walking her teacup poodle, her blond hair darkens, the
hair on her legs starts growing at an alarming rate, and
her mood swings put her dream job as a sales rep for
Bobbie-Sue Cosmetics in serious jeopardy.
Then
a drool-worthy man shows up at her door claiming that he
accidentally bit Marty. And since he's a werewolf, she is
now, too. Thinking Keegan Flaherty is clearly insane,
Marty refuses to believe a word until a kidnapping makes
her realize there's more at stake than just her
highlights. And she must put her out-of-control life in
the hands of the man who makes her blood run wild in more
ways than one...
I have wanted to read this book ever since I saw the first blurb about it. I'll have to get to the book store soon! (Kissa Starling 9:56pm June 4, 2008)
