Publisher's summary

Even in Grundy, Alaska, its 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, its 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, hes 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 hes 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.

Made me want to believe in werewolves

Mo comes from a very special family - she has 2 very hippie parents. They named her Moonflower after all. When she finally gets sick of the SMothering she decides to pack herself up from Mississippi and move all the way to Grundy, Alaska.

She intends to sit on her butt and see how things will be over the next year....and instead finds herself manning the grill at a local diner/bar/pub/dried foods store on her first outing into town. She becomes the permanent cook and is quickly accepted by all of the townsfolk except for the deliciously yummy Cooper.

As you'd guess the guy who she doesn't hit it off with right away is the one who she's meant to be with... and you guessed it - he's a werewolf.

Molly Harper's sense of humor and her side splitting timing are always a treat. I even love how Specialty Books (Jane Jameson, Half-Moon Hollow) is mentioned in this book.

I love the love in her books. It's never a simple fling or a one night stand.... it's always love eternal and I have had an aching need for that to be real since I fell in love with Disney's The Little Mermaid when I was a kid.

Of course, as an adult I now know that you have to kiss a lot of frogs before you find your prince. And I know that most relationships do not last forever. And I know that when they do last forever - there's always a lot of complications and a lot of patience. But the inner girl in me.... still screams that love should be eternal and wonderful and this book fills that need perfectly.

And it's all very believable. It's so normal and everyday in these books that it is so easy to believe that there are werewolves all over the world.... how cool is that?

Any additional comments?

I usually don't go for the funny romantic types, but I loved this book! It was hilarious! Mo was the perfect smart ass. I couldn't get enough of her witty comebacks, stubborn independence, and gentle tenacity. I'm gonna remember at least a few of her bone cutting quips to use in the future. I was rolling with laughter and couldn't stop listening. Between the sibling rivalry, the mysterious attacks, and the all too familiar hippie background - I just couldn't stop listening. This is my first experience with any of Molly Harper's writings, but I'm planning to come back for more.

Harper and Ronconi, the dynamic and delightful duo

I thoroughly enjoy how many laughs I am able to have as I picture the scenes in my head. With a combination of witty writing and above average delivery, I loved the whole book.

What was one of the most memorable moments of How to Flirt with a Naked Werewolf?

Having lived in small towns, I enjoyed how the writing presented the issues of a new person fitting into it. My nerves were on edge when Mo was trapped in the alley and I laughed when Mo's real name was revealed. Too many good moments to mention individually.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I wish I could listen to every Molly Harper book all at one time.

Any additional comments?

The references to pop culture mixed with a strong female character who may not have all the answers but unwaveringly, values herself, makes this a really fun, enjoyable, book.

Delightful

This book seems to start slow, but really picks up. The narrator is terrific and I choose this book based on her as the narrator.

Overall, I get the over invasive parents and fleeing to another place to start over, things are going well and then they improve. I totally felt invested in the characters and could see them getting together. I'd recommend as a light read and a great road book.

Any additional comments?

I will admit the cover turned me off. I thought it was too juvenille. I kept going back to it and it was really the good reviews that won me over so I took and chance and I am very glad I did.

happily not what I expected

I've enjoyed other shapeshifter type stories but none of them have been as funny, personable, engaging as this one.

Cute story

Very cute and funny story. Couldn’t stand the narrators male voice but I got though it.

Well worth getting naked

It’s well worth the credit!! Love Molly Harper she will leave you smiling. Fun, light hearted and makes you want more!!
