A curvy werewolf tries to make amends for insulting a big sexy hunk of an Alpha male werewolf, and sparks fly.It's a cute book with a strong female lead, when she isn't CONSTANTLY reming us that she's curvy (did I mention she's curvy). It has a big strong respectful, yet slightly sadistic male love interest (did I mention that the female lead is curvy). They flirt well together (By the way the female lead is curvy).This also isn't a "pure" werewolf book. There are other shifters involved as well as all kinds of magic and esp. Which is fine, but honestly there wasn't any need for other shifter races to be involved. Yes, it's a story point, but it could have easily been a bunch of werewolves with a different culture instead of having a different species represent the complication. I think the only reason they exist is so that the author can play with a different animal for the sequels.But out of all my problems with this book, my biggest one was the cartoon scientist friend/sidekick. The main has a female friend who happens to be a scientist/learned person of sorts. She spouts big words and has trouble communicating in small sentences. It makes her feel like those saturday morning cartoons where one character is supposed to be the "smart one" in the group.When I first saw her I feared that the book would continue down the path of 2d characterisations for all the other characters. Which it did in some ways.Luckily, the story saved it. And the way the author wrote the story was entraining enough to keep me interested. Though each event that happens in this story has a slightly predictable outcome (making some parts a bit cornball), it really is more about the journey. The writer does a good job keeping the reader entertained through this well written book.3 stars pick this book up if you're a fan of werewolf romances, but be warned, it's a bit corny.
