This new series from Molly seems to be a happy medium between the vampy supernatural Jane Jameson series and her recent romantic comedy, ...And one last thing. (Which I HIGHLY recommend, by the way.) Looks like with this series it's going to be each book is a story line one couple, then the next doing up the happily ever after of a supporting character. Which I'm more than fine with because it wraps each book up enough that there's no cliff-hanger but you'll still happily annoy your local bookseller for the next book. (Which I will)

I finished this book in a day. I tried to portion it out, I really did. But just as with my (and the main character's) addiction to sno balls, you just keep going till you're all out and kinda resentful about it.

Basic storyline is that Mo (short for a horribly embarrassing hippy-flower-child name) has escaped over-bearing parents and a ho-hum existence in Mississippi to the fish-bowl town of Grundy, AK. Insert surly manly stud-mc-werewolf-muffin, Cooper, who acts as "he's got a pine-cone up his ass...sideways." Add in some shenanigans that involve townspeople, a bear-trap and over priced undies and it's a really good end result.

And having read every published work of Molly Harper I have to think that she MUST have some very...interesting (if slightly nutty) family experiences, as every single one of her main characters has a fruit-cake family. (The kind that looks a little nutty, but ultimately is well-meaning.)

So go forth...and buy Molly Harper. And eat some Sno balls. Seriously, those things are like the food of the gods. (Sorry, I only found out about these things like two weeks ago and I'm making up for 25 years of not having them.)
