"When a naked man shows up on your doorstep with a bear trap
clamped around his ankle, it's best just to do what he
asks." So begins this hilarious new book from Molly Harper,
the author of the 'Nice Girls..' series.
When Mo Wenstein steps out of her truck, Lucille, and onto
the streets of Grundy, Alaska her purpose is to find out where
her desires begin and the rebellion to her hippie parents
leaves off. This close to her 30th birthday it is about time
she learns what she is made of and how she wants to spend
the rest of her life. Her thin Mississippi blood is certain
to have trouble adjusting to the Alaskan winter when it
comes, but she finds plenty of warmth and friendship in the
meantime. As one of the few women in town, she doesn't lack
for male attention but she's not thinking about starting a
relationship and has no trouble turning them away. Even the
offer of permanently warm feet and a color television made
by Abner Golighty, age 87, fails to win her over. She enjoys
a light flirtation with Alan Dahling, U.S. Forestry Ranger,
but keeps everything on a casual level as she settles in and
finds her footing.
Cooper Graham is another matter entirely. Anytime he's in
the same room her pulse picks up, her skin flushes and she
wants him, badly. What truly annoys her is the fact he seems
to despise her as an outsider has no power to lessen the
pull of her libido. Cooper may have the best butt she's ever
encountered but she has more important things to accomplish,
so she does her best to steer clear of him and his cranky
attitude.
This has to be in the top ten of the best books I've read.
Harper manages to create a plot where moments of intense
danger intersperse with scenes that had me laughing so hard
I had to rush from the bedroom before my guffaws woke my
husband. I had to read it in one sitting, helplessly drawn
to turn one page after another until it was done. The last
time a book captured my heart so thoroughly was when I read
one of Shelly Laurenston's 'Pride' series books for the
first time.
I was delighted to learn the next book in Molly Harper's
Werewolf series, The Art of Seducing a Naked Werewolf
is due out very soon.
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. . . .
