A WEREWOLF IN MANHATTAN is the first book in Vick Lewis
Thompson's new Wild About You series.
Writer Emma Gavin is getting ready to go on tour to promote
her next werewolf novel. Life should be very good but, the
fact is, she's
burned out from recent deadlines, unsatisfied in her current
relationship, and worried about an obsessive fan. Things
start to look up though when hunky Aidan Wallace is assigned
to accompany her on the tour for added security. The smart,
thoughtful, protective, and super sexy male might make the
perfect hero for her next book. So Emma decides to spend as
much time as possible with him during the trip...all in the
name of research of course.
Aidan is member of a prominent werewolf family, a family
that is concerned about the accuracy of author Emma Gavin's
novels. Aidan's job is to find out whether Emma is getting
inside information from another werewolf or if it is pure
coincidence. The only problem is that every time he gets
near the woman he wants her. The fact that she's a human
and that he has a responsibility to mate with an important
member of another pack means he can't act on his attraction
to her. So when he finds himself accompanying her on her
book tour to keep her safe from a crazy fan that may
possibly be a werewolf, it will take all his control to keep
their relationship strictly professional.
A WEREWOLF IN MANHATTAN is a cute paranormal romance that is
sure to entertain fans of the genre. With likable
characters and a light-hearted plot, it is the perfect way
to unwind from a stressful day. Emma's unending curiosity
makes for numerous laugh-at-loud moments, and Aidan's fierce
protectiveness will leave every woman with a serious crush.
The sex scenes are hot, but even they remain light due to
Aidan's tendency to begin to shape-shift when he becomes
aroused. The story doesn't contain a lot of action or
suspense but instead focuses on the development of the
relationship between Emma and Aidan. Thompson does a good
job of painting a unique werewolf world, and I hope she
continues to develop it in the next installment in the
series. Overall the book is a funny paranormal romp that
will leave you smiling.
Emma Gavin writes bestselling novels about werewolves, but
that doesn't mean she believes in them -- and she
certainly doesn't think she'll meet one. But that's
exactly what happens when her books catch the attention of
a rich and powerful pack of Manhattan Weres, who have kept
their existence hidden for centuries. Alarmed by the
accuracy of her novels, they're determined to find out if
a renegade is acting as her informant.
Aidan Wallace, the pack leader's son and heir, knows he's
the wolf for the job, but when he gets close to Emma, they
are both surprised by an attraction too strong to deny. To
surrender to it, Aidan will have to risk everything---
including the security of the pack he's sworn to
protect...
