How to Help A Hungry Werewolf is a hilarious and steamy book from Charlotte Stein. Cassandra returns to her hometown upon the death of her grandmother. What she doesn’t expect is to find her former best friend Seth exactly where she left him. When Seth starts acting strange, she learns that there is a magical world that was previously kept from her. Will Cassie embrace her new witchy powers or is it time to leave again?
My favorite part of this book was the hilarious banter between Seth and Cassie. I also loved the sentient microwave and raccoon familiar. At times the plot danced a little too close to absurdity, but I think once the silliness is accepted then it works. The bullying explanation fell a little flat, though Seth being such a ding dong rang true in making it believable. Seth is the definition of a himbo who is down bad for Cassie. However, Cassie must fight some of her inner demons before she can think about accepting Seth’s love. They make a cute couple!
Readers who enjoy banter, silliness paired with steaminess, and magical contemporary romance should check this book out.
