About this ebook

Sienna Rubens doesn't wait to be rescued. She drives straight into the enemy's compound with a van full of her signature red-glazed cupcakes, a fully charged phone, and absolutely zero plan to fail. Her mission is simple: make the big bad wolf developer abandon his plans to demolish her sick grandmother's home.

But Lowell Shaw isn't the cult leader she expected. He's devastatingly familiar, wolfish in ways she's only beginning to understand, and the one man fate apparently chose for her. Now she's locked in his estate, holding secrets that could destroy them both, and her certainty that he's the villain is crumbling with every charged, forbidden encounter. What happens when Sienna realizes she's not the hunter she thought she was…and she’s his mate?

Find out in Her Big Bad Wolf, a steamy paranormal romantasy featuring a baking heroine undercover and a fated mates bond that can't be denied. Grab your copy and start the retelling today!

Ratings and reviews

Short, saucy romp🐺💦 Lots of lustful thoughts & deeds & a mystery to unravel regarding the bad blood between Sienna's family & the local werewolf pack headed by Lowell, who ghosted her in high school. And Sienna (Red) didn't even know there were such a thing as werewolves! She unknowingly stumbles into the thick of a werewolf gathering & her life is instantly changed. It doesn't take long for the steam to surface & take over the plot. Okay as standalone, better when read with others in series.

I really enjoyed this retelling and the drama and interactions were a hoot. The setup of Sienna thinking Lowell is evil and a cult leader lead to a hilarious yet steamy story that had me glued to the end to watch it all play out. Watching these two interact was fun and I enjoyed it all.

I enjoyed reading this short and steamy book. The plot is interesting and the overall series plot is progressing nicely. The romance was sweet and hot. I love the characters. I just wish it was a bit longer. I'm eager to see what happens in the next book. I received a copy from the author and this is my honest review.
