But of course they have off-the-charts chemistry and fall in love despite themselves.īoth are artists. Even though witches don't fraternize with werewolves, Evie agrees to help him because well, she's not about to turn away someone who needs her particular magical specialty. He hasn't been able to shift for three months and his inner wolf is getting more and more difficult to control. Wolf Gone Wild is set in New Orleans and pairs Evie, a hex-breaker witch with Mateo, a werewolf with a curse. No private investigators, no police, no soldiers or vivisection on page. I have some content warnings, but overall I'd recommend it to people who are looking for something a little different. I have no idea if it hits the traditional movie rom-com beats, but it made me laugh several times and generally avoided the gore and violence so common in PNR. Yes, my friends, werewolf PNR is now getting illustrated covers, too. In the words of a friend, "so now werewolf PNR is getting illustrated covers too?"
