Book Review: The Werewolf Wears Prada (San Francisco Wolf Pack Book 1) by Kristin Miller

The Werewolf Wears Prada (San Francisco Wolf Pack #1)
by Kristin Miller

Kindle Edition, 230 pages
April 28th 2015 by Entangled Covet
Melina Rosenthal worships at the altar of all things fashion. Her dream is to work for the crème de la crème fashion magazine, Eclipse, and she'll do much anything to get there. Even fixing up the image of a gorgeous, sexy public figure who's all playboy, all the time. Even if he's the guy who broke her heart a year ago...

Even if Hayden Dean is a werewolf.

Since his father's death, Hayden's the heir apparent to the San Francisco Wolf Pack—well, once he settles down. Hayden isn't interested in giving up his partying ways, except he's pretty sure he's found his fated mate, and the fact that she's a non-shifter is bad news. Now he must find a compromise between the traditions of his wolf world and his certainty that Melina is his...before fate (or another werewolf) bites them both in the butt.

Fashion collides with the paranormal in The Werewolf Wears Prada by Kristin Miller!

Self proclaimed fashion fan, Melina Rosenthal longs to work for Eclipse, the fashion magazine of the ages. When a chance opens up for her to realize her dream, she’s eager to do anything. Even if it means spending time cleaning up the public image of the man who stood her up a year ago.

Werewolf Hayden Dean had his reasons for standing up Melina and none of them have to do with his reputation as a playboy. He’s the heir apparent to the San Francisco wolf pack and must prove his worthiness. That includes finding a suitable shifter mate. Unfortunately for him, all signs point to Melina being his fated mate. With a civil war in his world brewing, Hayden has to make difficult decisions that can make or break his position as Alpha.

The Werewolf Wears Prada is exactly what the title suggests, a light hearted paranormal romance set in the world of fashion. For me there was a pretty good balance of everything: Silliness, danger, suspense and of course romance. The author knew how to keep things interesting with her take on the born shifters versus the bitten shifters. That’s a plot I’m interested in seeing develop in future books.

While I enjoyed the story of The Werewolf Wears Prada, I was on the fence about its main characters. It’s not that I didn’t like them, but they had their moments of not reaching their full potential or being slightly annoying.

I appreciated that Hayden wasn’t a typical a-hole billionaire, he had his insecurities and his doubts and that made him a likable billionaire, which doesn’t happen to me very often. He seemed so human. But he wasn’t just human, he was also a wolf and as the story progressed I wanted to see him become more wolf like, meaning, he should have become more of a leader. Hayden is supposed to be the heir apparent for the San Francisco pack and he had his reasons for being unsure and doubting his ability to lead in his father’s place but by then end he should have shown much more confidence and “alpha-ness” than he did. He still seemed like a lost little boy in a big, bad, dangerous world. Not to say that he doesn’t deserve to be Alpha but I thought that the events that took place at the end should have given him a stronger air of leadership about him and I didn’t get that vibe from him. I’m hoping in future books; we’ll see a stronger, more confident Hayden take control.

Then there was Melina. She was snarky, witty and courageous. As a woman she was bold enough to take on a project that while professionally would elevate her to the status she wanted, it would bring her personal turmoil. Having to work closely with the Hayden who was supposed to take her to an important public function then didn’t show up to pick her up was one thing, having to watch him on tv arrive with two other women was another. Yet, Melina didn’t whine or let herself be intimidated by Hayden. She was a professional for the most part and I loved that about her. What I didn’t love was her obsession with fashion that never really took a back seat even when her life was in danger and especially once it changed drastically. I get that she was a big fan of fashion but sweetie straighten your priorities out! Who cares if it was a designer whatever that got ripped up? You’ve got bigger, wolfier problems!

As a couple though, Hayden and Melina complimented each other very well. Hayden encouraged Melina and never tried to hold her back from what she wanted to do and Melina challenged Hayden to step out of his comfort zone and deal with the real issues he had rather than hide behind a playboy image.

Overall, The Werewolf Wears Prada was an interesting and strong start to a series by a new to me author and I’m curious to see how the major plot that connects each book is going to play out.

But Carter’s already walked the matrimonial road and bought the stinkin’ T-shirt. Besides, a werewolf only gets one fated mate. Been there, done that. 

All werewolf dog trainer Faith Hamilton wants to do is earn enough green stuff to put her younger brother through college. Okay, okay, so she also totally wants Carter, her sexy next-door neighbor, to look at her as more than a friend. It’s too bad size 12 and plain isn’t his type. At all. 
The two friends strike a deal to help one another out. They must face a variety of challenges from a psycho ex-girlfriend to a Yorkie with a shoe fetish...and that pesky problem of only having one-fated mate in a lifetime.

Carter Griffin is an enforcer for the Seattle Wolf Pack working towards a promotion. He has everything he needs to land the job, except a wife. Desperate to earn the position, and make his superiors happy, he turns to a friend of his for help.

Faith Hamilton and Carter have been friends for years. In truth, Faith would have loved to take the relationship beyond friendship, but Carter never showed any interest. Insecure with herself, Faith takes what Carter has to offer, friendship. When he comes to her, looking for a pretend wife, she’s not sure it’s a good idea, but finds she can’t turn down a friend in need.

Faith, may not be model skinny, or drop dead gorgeous, but she’s attractive and instantly likeable. She is convinced she will never be Carter’s type, but in truth she’s probably more his type than anyone else he’s dated. As things heat up during their fake marriage, Carter slowly starts to figure this out for himself. However, Carter is gun shy from an already failed marriage to his fated mate, making him unsure how to proceed. As he fights his attraction to Faith and an internal battle over past hurts, we find out that maybe he’s not as put together as Faith believes.

This novel is a heartfelt, completely enjoyable look at a relationship between friends that becomes something more. The characters are likable and real, and you truly just want them to find happiness. It turned out to be a fast paced read that leaves you feeling good when you are done.

Alpha Male Diner: Carter Griffin (Werewolf) by Kristin Miller + giveaway


Carter Griffin (Werewolf and enforcing officer for the Seattle Wolf Pack)
recipe by Kristin Miller
So I Married a Werewolf


Start with one dominant werewolf who is used to getting what he wants.

Add:
Dark hair, cut close to the sides
Ice blue eyes
Lips designed for pleasure
Tattoos covering his golden-tan skin

Mix with:
Possessiveness
Quick wit
Unwavering loyalty to his friends
An unquenchable thirst to claim his mate as his

While you start with the mold of “best friend”, don’t be discouraged. With a mix of determination, persistence, and tactics to make him jealous, the man will have the clawing desire to become more than friends. Throw in a dash of humor, a hint of companionship, a generous amount of teasing foreplay, and you’ll have a man who melts for you.

In So I Married a Werewolf, Faith and Carter are packmates and great friends who strike up a marriage bargain so that he can earn a promotion at work, and she can help pay for her brother’s college tuition. It’s funny how love can destroy even the most carefully thought out plans…

Hold on tight for your tantalizing sample…


Taste Test

“I’m…” He shoved his fingers through his hair. “I’m worried about you.”

She stepped back toward the embankment, beneath a flickering umbrella of light, and hopped up on the concrete half wall separating the walkway from a patch of grass.

“You’ve got no reason to worry about me,” she said. “I’m not yours.”

“You are mine.” He advanced, and then stopped suddenly, a look of shock flashing over his face. “For the next few months, you’re my wife.”

“But I’m not your woman or your mate.” She kicked her legs over the edge. “If I want to talk to a stranger in the bar until midnight I will, as long as it doesn’t interfere with our agreement or your chances of getting the detective position.”

The light overhead flickered to black. In the temporary dark, Faith heard the hard and true thump-thump of Carter’s heartbeat, his heavy intake and exhale of breath, and the clunk of his heel as he eliminated the space between them.

“Carter?”

He whispered, “Let me try something.”

And in the next instant, his hand was on her cheek. She flinched, but his fingers lingered, the pads brushing against her skin in a loving caress. She couldn’t help it—the tenderness of his touch forced her eyes closed. His hand glided to the back of her neck, and he gave a little tug, scooting her to the very edge of the half wall. He stood against the concrete, his hips pressing her thighs apart.

Her breath hitched as he tilted her head up with his fingers and planted an openmouthed kiss on her neck. Sparks sizzled across her skin and warmed her from the inside out.

She shouldn’t be doing this. He didn’t want her last night.

What changed?

His tongue shot out tantalizingly slow, tracing her scar from her jawline down the side of her neck. Quivering, she reached out for him and grazed her nails down his back. Then she grabbed fistfuls of his shirt and shoved him away from her.

“Are you the same person you were last night?” she asked, willing her racing heart to still.

His face was close to hers and closing in. “I am.”

“Am I the same woman?”

“I hope so.” The words were spoken from a smiling mouth—one that was going to kiss her and stop her heart in two seconds flat. God, he smelled good. Like pine and woodsmoke.

She held him at arm’s length. “I thought we were friends.”

“We are. I was thinking we could try ‘friends with benefits’ on for size.”

God, he’d probably benefit as well as he kissed.
