What The Wolf Who Loved Me is about:
Lady Madeline has money problems...specifically she has so much of it that she's dogged by fortune hunters, including her bewildering attractive, penniless neighbor, with his wild nature and uncouth manners.
Weston Hadley has an identity crises....specifically, he's just turned into a wolf while Madeline was watching. Now it's up to the regal lady to tame the wild beast...if she can...
When Lydia Dare (writing team of Tammy Falkner and Ava Stone) released her newest creation, I knew that I had to read it because I loved the Regency Vampyre Trilogy so much!! I was not disappointed one bit with this story and gobbled it up in just a few days! I love the characters that this duo brings to the pages and I honestly can say that it was very easy for me to conjure up specific images of them in my mind while reading about their fantastic adventures!! The male leads are always these strong and virile men, but they also have that hint of vulnerability that makes you immediately fall in love with them!! Madeline is sassy and starts to really come into her own during the book and I love her innocence when she and Weston finally become "married"!
Recommend? If you're looking for a fun paranormal regency romance then look no further than Lydia Dare's entire booklist!! Even though this was number five in the Westfield Wolves series, I really feel that it can be a stand-alone without having to start at the beginning! (I know..I never read out-of-order! and truth be told, I had no idea this was number 5 until I was done!!).

DeleteI didn't even know there was such a thing as paranormal regency romance. :) Not my type of book, but I can see the appeal for those who like those genres.
ReplyDeleteProbably not but they are fun and just what I need in between those serious reads sometimes!
DeleteI've actually gotten into the Patricia Briggs werewolf romance series, but I always feel like I have to put a plain paper bag over the covers! LOL

ReplyDelete... but is it hot?? I'm pretty sure I've never read out of order (a tad OCD) but I'll be checking this series out LOL
ReplyDeleteI just peeked at your review because I have this book on my Kindle and I'm really looking forward to reading it! I read one of this author's books awhile back and found it to be a fun read! Glad to hear that you enjoyed this one :)
ReplyDeleteI think if I gave this one a try, though, the hottie on the cover would totally distract me from reading. ;)
ReplyDeleteWell that cover is certainly hard to resist!
