THE ART OF SEDUCING A NAKED WEREWOLF is Molly Harper's
follow up to
featuring the werewolves of Grundy, Alaska and the
full-humans who love them. In this outing to wild and
wintery Alaska, we meet-up again with Maggie Graham, young
and newly appointed alpha of the valley's pack. Her role is
to insure the comfort, security, and stability of her pack.
That includes protecting them from nosy outsiders such as
Nick Thatcher who has come to Grundy to investigate rumors
of werewolf sightings. He believes that his research will
prove the existence of werewolves once and for all.
Unfortunately for her, Maggie's attraction to Nick is at
odds with her obligation to protect her pack from Nick's
snooping. Will she give up a chance at happiness for the
good of the pack? Will Nick let her?
Ms. Harper has crafted a charming story that straddles
several genres. I would say that romantic comedy dominates,
with secondary elements of the paranormal (they are
werewolves, after all) and romantic suspense. THE ART OF
SEDUCING A NAKED WEREWOLF is dominated by characters that
are fun, tough, and sometimes goofy. The beautiful Alaskan
landscape serves as great backdrop for the budding
relationship between Maggie and Nick, and a mystery
involving an unknown threat against Maggie. This book works
well as a stand-alone story, but you will enjoy the return
of Cooper and Mo more if you have read their story first.
Generations of werewolves have been secretly residing in a
secluded valley a stone’s throw from Grundy, Alaska. So
when a snooping Outsider comes to Grundy to investigate
rumors of lycanthropic shenanigans in the area, the
valley’s pack alpha, Maggie Graham, resolves to chase him
away, even if doing so takes a quick bite on the butt.
What a pity that researcher Nick Thatcher turns out to be
so drool-worthy, and that his kisses make Maggie want to
sit up and beg. Maggie just can’t seem to convince Nick to
leave . . . and even worse, she can’t convince herself to
stay away from him.
Cross-species dating is problem enough for a harried alpha
female, but on top of that, a rival group of werewolves is
trying to move into the valley. With interpack war
threatening, Maggie can’t afford to be distracted.
Combining romance and a career can be tough for anyone;
for a werewolf in love with a human, it may be
disastrous. . . .
