How to Flirt with a Naked Werewolf

Andrea Mack

I swear the author somehow got into my brain and wrote the kind of book that I would love to write! I admit, I went into reading this thinking I would probably put it down after the first few pages (the title has some cheese in it). But this book was great: hilarious, fun, sexy. The supernatural side of this didn't feel hokey. Anytime I was starting to feel like the story was going down the path of a romance novel trope, the author spun the trope into something different and pleasantly unexpected, intentionally using the trope to mislead. 

I enjoyed it so much that I devoured the book in two days.

There were also Alias references. Any author who can deliver all the above and include Alias references immediately jumps to the top of my all-time favourites list!

Thank you, Molly Harper, for such a great read!

Briar's Reviews

I accidentally stumbled across this book as a local discount store and the cover instantly caught my eye. I kept eying this book down, knowing full well I needed to pick it up, and I finally caved. To no one's surprise, I have been eying this cutesy romance on my book shelf for AGES and I finally knew it was time to pick it up. Nothing is better than my guilty pleasure - romances with a pinch of fantasy!

How to Flirt with a Naked Werewolf follows our lead Mo when she moves to a distant, small town in Alaska. She wants to get away from her parents overly obsessive nature of basically controlling her life. It's like this move was meant to be, because suddenly she has friends and a job, and a hot man chasing after her. One day, sexy Cooper wakes up naked on her door step, and guess what? He's the naked werewolf! But is he the werewolf/creature killing the people showing up dead in their town? Mo and Cooper will have to investigate. Will their relationship survive? You'll need to read to find out...

This book was super funny and an absolute delight. I felt myself sinking into this book and disappeared until I have binged the whole thing. It really is a lovely, HEA type romance with just enough fantasy and paranormal in it to make it interesting. I really enjoyed watching Mo develop relationships and finally fit in somewhere. It's what every reader seems to want - just to fit in - so it was easy to relate to her. I really liked Mo's arc and that quite a few characters developed over time and became more likable. Also, Mo is thirty years old! Do you know how great it is to see a romance book where the character is an actual ADULT who doesn't have her life figured out yet? RELATABLE. SUPER RELATABLE. THANK YOU!

Cooper is a more rough character and maybe not the most romantic of men, but I didn't care. I was more focused on the fun Mo was having and the amazing sex scenes those two were romping in. This book is also a wee bit predictable, but that's what I like in my guilty pleasure reads. Anywho, it seems like every plot has been done to death anyways. 

There was a few "rougher" parts of this book - brutal death of a character who deserved some bad things to him, and a really sad loss - but other than that it's a great contemporary, paranormal romance. I honestly don't see anything bad with it because any "issues" that were there were so minor it didn't matter. Sooner or later, I will need to find the remaining books in this series and binge it. Molly Harper is gearing up to be one of my new fave authors.

Overall, I loved this book! It's sweet, light, full of romance, funny, mushy, sexy and just a great all around read!

Four out of five stars.
