Ratings and reviews

Unlucky in love for herself, Josie Cole is a pro at matching other couples and her sister’s wedding will be her one-hundredth match unless private investigator / werewolf Ryder McManus has something to say about it in this enchanting paranormal romance. Catching cheating spouses has taught Ryder there is no such thing as happily ever after and the reader can’t help but get caught up in the energetic sparks that fly when Ryder finds his fated mate at his best friend’s wedding. The chemistry may sizzle with heated desire between Ryder and Josie but this relationship is more spirited than an active volcano because of their completely opposite view points on love and happily ever after which causes impassioned debates and flaming tempers along with the blazing passion. Strong feisty characters demand the reader’s attention while the fast paced, smooth flowing plot enchants readers with suspense, excitement, charm and romance while causing some spontaneous chuckles. Excitement and tension builds throughout the story as Josie and Ryder continue to have spirited conversations regarding the rightness of the wedding while Ryder fights his smoldering desires for Josie due to his personal demons and of course his “werewolf” secret. The intriguing events draw the reader into this lively romance as the well written scenes paint vivid details that make it easy for the readers to become immersed in the story. I really enjoy each and every visit with the San Francisco Wolf Pack but I think What a Werewolf Wants may be my favorite because the author spiced this story up with some extra excitement in the romance and secret telling elements of the story which added to Jodi’s feisty personality and Ryder’s sexy but doom and gloom attitude made the story a delightful and fun read that I just had to finish before I could go to sleep.

WHAT A WEREWOLF WANTS is the third instalment in the San Francisco Wolf Pack series; while I thought book 2 was a bit weaker, Kristin Miller really nails it with WHAT A WEREWOLF WANTS! Josie Cole’s sister Carrie is getting married, and this will be the hundredth successful match for Josie’s Cole Matchmaking Services, which means a huge career boost and a TV special. However, Josie is still single. Carrie is marrying Mitch, a friend of Ryder McManus, who will be his best man. Ryder has given up on love, which is unfortunate as he is a werewolf and that means a much shorter life span, without his fated mate. Ryder is a private investigator dealing mostly in catching cheaters, which doesn’t help his outlook. He thinks Mitch must tell Carrie he’s a werewolf; a few days from the wedding, and Mitch is not saying a word. When they first meet, Josie thinks Ryder is really hot, and vice versa, but worse for Ryder: Josie is his Luminary, his fated mate, the one with whom he is destined to spend his life with, and she is a mortal to boot! And Ryder is determined to stop the wedding, while Josie is adamant that it must happen, and things go from bad to worse when Ryder mentions that Mitch has not been entirely truthful… The writing is flawless, there are no lulls in the story, no filler, and the pacing is impeccable. There are a few hilarious moments as well as funny banter, and Ms. Miller adds to her already fascinating world. The characters, both principal and secondary, are all equally interesting, and I loved how the two couples handled their issues. The friendship between Josie and Carrie, as well as between Mitch and Ryder felt entirely genuine. But best of all was the way Ms. Miller dealt with how Mitch and Ryder reveal what they are; it was done very convincingly, and I felt that’s how it would happen in real life. WHAT A WEREWOLF WANTS offers an excellent look at what make relationships work, and coupled with the paranormal angle, it’s even more compelling. It was absorbing to see things evolve and watch the bond get stronger between Ryder and Josie, apart from the fated mate thing. There might have been instalust there, and again everything was entirely plausible; Ryder and Josie had to work on their issues to get their Happy Ever After, and all this was done brilliantly! Excellent read! I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
