Werewolf in the North Woods by Vicki Lewis Thompson

Goodreads Description:

When she used to walk around her grandfather’s property out­side Portland, Abby Winchell loved the idea that Bigfoot was somewhere out there too. Now her grandfather swears he’s seen two creatures that fit the legendary description—and he has evidence. Sort of. Grandpa Earl may be a bit dotty, but when his neighbors invite a renowned anthropologist to disprove his theory, Abby decides to send the man packing...until she sees how hot he is. 

Anthropology professor Roark Wallace can’t risk news be­ing made of a Bigfoot sighting in the north woods—not with a local pack of werewolves to protect. Disproving the evidence should be easy, but ignoring Abby is not. Her fiery red hair makes him want to sit up and beg, and this obvious attraction is making the pack suspicious.

My Review:



I haven't read the first in the series but this could definitely stand alone.  Anthropology Professor Roarke Wallace is brought in by a Werewolf pack in Portland to help defuse a situation.  Apparently the pack's neighbor Earl Dooley saw Bigfoot and possibly his mate.  Since then strangers have been in the woods trying to get a better look and picture!  Roarke is to spread his 'opinion' that Earl didn't see Bigfoot but maybe hikers, who knows since Earl is 77.  He is also assigned to move the Sasquatch couple. Enters Abby Winchell, Earls Grand-Daughter.  She doesn't like how her Grandpa is being slandered and sets out to prove he saw Bigfoot.  She finds out Roarke is a werewolf and blackmails him into taking her when he goes in search of the Sasquatch couple.  Things get hot and heavy and the romance is formed.

There are a few twists and turns and a LOT of humor.  I loved how this book just made me laugh out loud.  My daughters kept looking at me like I was crazy! This book is a good Paranormal Romance, and I will be getting the first to see how Aiden, Roarke's Brother, found his true love.  And I will definitely be following the rest of the series.
