Waiting on Wednesday #8 ~ "How to Flirt with a Naked Werewolf" by Molly Harper



Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine which spotlights eagerly anticipated upcoming releases!

It's Wednesday again!  The book I'm waiting for this week is How to Flirt with a Naked Werewolf by Molly Harper.  I was drawn to this book just by the title, it kind of pulls you in does it not!  Once I read the blurb I knew I had to add i to my to read list!


Author: Molly Harper
Series: Naked Werewolf, #1 
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Publisher: Pocket
Release date: 22 February 2011


Even in Grundy, Alaska, it's unusual to find a naked guy with a beartrap clamped to his ankle on your front 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, it's 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, he's worried that he might be the violent canine in question.

If a wolf cries wolf, it makes sense to listen. Mo is convinced that Cooper is not the culprit. But if he's 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.

They can be old, new or forthcoming. It's also an event that anyone can join in with too - Mr Linky is always at the ready for you to link your own 'On My Wishlist' post. If you want to know more click here.


Here are a couple of books that I've wanted to read for ages but still have not bought!  They are at the top of my to read list and I want to get them really soon :)


Magic Bites by Iiona Andrews
Kate Daniels #1
Ace, 27th March 2007


Why it's on my wishlist: 
I've heard so many good things about this series so I'm looking forward to reading it a lot!


Goodreads Summary:
When the magic is up, rogue mages cast their spells and monsters appear, while guns refuse to fire and cars fail to start. But then technology returns, and the magic recedes as unpredictably as it arose, leaving all kinds of paranormal problems in its wake. 

Kate Daniels is a down-on-her-luck mercenary who makes her living cleaning up these magical problems. But when Kate's guardian is murdered, her quest for justice draws her into a power struggle between two strong factions within Atlanta's magic circles. 

The Masters of the Dead, necromancers who can control vampires, and the Pack, a paramilitary clan of shapechangers, blame each other for a series of bizarre killings—and the death of Kate's guardian may be part of the same mystery. Pressured by both sides to find the killer, Kate realizes she's way out of her league—but she wouldn't have it any other way…


Changeless by Gail Carriger
The Parasol Protectorate #2
Orbit, 30th March 2010


Why it's on my wishlist: 
I loved Soulless so I have to read this!  In fact I'm not sure really why I haven't bought it yet!


Goodreads Summary:
Alexia Tarabotti, now Lady Maccon, awakens in the wee hours of the mid-afternoon to find her husband, who should be decently asleep like any normal werewolf, yelling at the top of his lungs. Then he disappears -- leaving her to deal with a regiment of supernatural soldiers encamped on her doorstep, a plethora of exorcised ghosts, and an angry Queen Victoria. 

But Alexia is armed with her trusty parasol, the latest fashions, and an arsenal of biting civility. Even when her investigations take her into thebackwaters of ugly waistcoats, Scotland, she is prepared: upending werewolf pack dynamics as only a soulless can. 

She might even find time to track down her wayward husband, if she feels like it.
