Her Fairytale Wolf

Rate this book
Isabel Lassiter knows with the right opportunity, her custom couture could rule Tinsel Town. Instead, she’s tied to a boss she both hates and pities, waiting for her chance shine. Lonely, she waits for the right someone to notice and sweep her off her feet.

Zander Petrov has Hollywood and the city of Los Angeles at his feet. Still, he’s never forgotten his shifter roots or his duty to his clan. He knows he has to mate, but in his glittering world a genuine mate is hard to find. The search continues until the day he meets Isabel in this modern twist on a favorite fairytale.

A chance meeting opens the door for everything this Cinderella wants and more, but jealousy and betrayal nearly snatch the happily ever after from her hands. What they didn’t count on was a Prince Charming with a bite.

A good read, but I would have liked more at the end of the story. Otherwise, it was sweet, sexy, and a fun retelling of Cinderella.

Meh. This was a Cinderella retelling about a sweet, pure, wonderful, doormat of a girl named Izzy. The story felt rushed. The baddies were so bad they made Izzy seem weak for putting up with them. And Zander our H was a wolf shifter man-whore who we are reminded (regularly) how many women he's had over the years.

Combine it all together and I'm unimpressed.

Great read with just the Right Amount of Heat!

WoW I love Molly Taiden's books and to find one I have not read I grab it and devour it like a starving person.

What a great fairytale told in a shifter world. Zander and Izzy meet by chance. And the get separated will fate help them find each other. Great read with just the right amount of heat.

If Cinderella could be retold involving shifters...then this is it....maybe just a tad bit x rated but just as good. I loved it!! Just the right amount of fairy tale to get your heart hopping and release a sweet sigh of contentment at the end. This is a wonderful before bedtime read...as long as your partner is handy for the juicy parts!! This dynamic team up could best be compared to Aquaman and Batman ( two incredibly sexy and talented authors who are guaranteed to entertain!!) It will leave you thirsty for more of this sexy sweet magic!!

Her fairytale wolf is the first book of Milly Taiden and Marianne Morea’s that I have read. Because of this I wasn’t sure on what to expect. I needn’t have worried because I found the writing style easy to follow. I really enjoyed this book. I loved both Isabel and Zander.
I liked the Cinderella style story; I liked the twists and turns. I loved that Isabel finally found her wolf and put Allison in her place! Don’t even get me started on Allison and Candice. I wanted to slap both women, more so Allison. I adored Tessa; she was an awesome friend to Isabel. I liked that she pushed Isabel to go after what she wanted and to stand up for herself. I really liked Zander; I just wish there were more of him. I liked that he knew he wanted Isabel. I thought he and Isabel were perfect for one another. I liked the chemistry between them. I read this book in one sitting and wasn’t once bored, nor did I put this book down.
My only complaint/disappointments were that I wished that this book were longer. I wanted more of Zander & I would’ve liked to see Isabel meet her long lost family. – But that is just me being greedy. I will definitely be re reading this book & I will also be checking out more books from both authors.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and an enjoyable read.

No depth hat soo ever.....

I love, love LOVE Paranormal romance and shifter in particular ,but I want a good and interesting story and this? This wasn't it... sighs,well not for me any way...
Ok, 1) I'm sick to freakin death of any and all BBW types hating on themselves , your not doing her or is a favor w/that , I mean soo what if the now skinny ,these women are just usually a healthy / "normal" size and I'm sick of instead of owning who they are and loving themselves whether the rest of the world has the sense to or not,and being a overly sweet doormat like Izzy here was with the two women she worked was just sad .... As a woman and was one who struggles daily to love her BBW self I want I woman who owns who she is flaws and all wether she 5 pounds over weight or 50 and if others don't like it tough,she's not a beyotch but she's not a doormat...
2) what the heck kinda shifter is is sick w/old age pains and grumbles ? Seriously ? One of the perks of being a Supe. ( supernatural ) is supposed to be beyond heightened senses and strength ,ability or shift ( if your a shifter) etc. is a longer than average life span and no illness or sickness.... I mean that's supposed to be one of the best parts, a long heathy life...
No old moans and groans like Zander's father had, especially NOT an alpha ... O heck no!!!
3) there's the incomplete feeling of the story,most the story is spent with the h either complaining about ( her life ) or fighting w/ppl who make her unhappy ,at times using her curvy body as an excuse for it all... I.e. When she lefts a note for the H w/waitress assuming the H even got it, that he'd stood up up out of lack interest when he'd been practically trying to have her for lunch instead of his sandwich...
Sighs no nononono.... sorry but a doormat h,a story ending w/unanswered questions and then a happy for now ending ?
No, thank you ...
Just grateful it was KU

Reviewed at Shifter Haven

Love can find us when we aren’t looking or we least expect it. For Isabel, finding love first arrived in the form of a beautiful, inquisitive older dog lost on the street. No collar, but a chip so Isabel did the right thing and headed to the nearest vet clinic to have that chip read and find this beauty’s owner. She never thought that finding a lost dog would lead her to finding her own love… and an unexpected discovery of her own.

Zander knew his own worth and power, and not only in the entertainment madhouse that is known as Hollywood. No there is more to Zander than most people realize and when the lovely woman who rescued his beloved pet didn’t seem to have a clue who he was, well he was immediately drawn to her. It’s too bad that their possible romance was over before it could begin due to silly circumstances and Isabel disappearing like Cinderella but without leaving the glass slipper behind.

The re-telling or re-imagining of classic fairy tales happens to be one of my favorite story lines, no matter the genre, but put them into the shifter world and I’m one very happy reader. Her Fairytale Wolf gives a new spin to the Cinderella tale complete with evil, nasty step-mother and step-sister in tow. Those two fully deserved the smack down they eventually got. And I adored Isabel’s own personal version of a fairy godmother.

Completely delightful, sexy at times and pure fun. If you love Shifter Romance and can still be charmed by the classic fairy tales then Her Fairytale Wolf is perfect for you. I’d recommend this tale to any Paranormal Romance or Shifter Romance reader..

This is a great twist on the Cinderella story . Who wants a prince that can bite back. Meet Isabel and Zander . Two shifters that find each other by a lost dog . Will they find the love that they deserve or will the evil step sister wreck everything .
I absolutely adore the Cinderella story and I fell in love with this story . It reads like a harlequin romance with a twist of the paranormal . The characters are well written . You want to hug Isabel and tell her that everything will be alright . She is the character that most of us will liken ourselves to . Stuck in a job with a well not so nice boss . She is stronger then she lets on and when pushed she becomes the person that we knew she could become. Tessa is a laugh a minute character, she reminds me of an old hippie throw back and she is no nonsense and the person that is there for Isabel . I loved Tessa she made me giggle , special brownies is all I am going to say . Now on to our main man Zander hotter then sin and has a heart of gold and wants a girl like Isabel . He is prince charming in all ways .
This is a fun fast read . Marianne and Milly take us on a fun filled ride that will have you cheering all the way through . So if you want a great fast read for the end of summer . Check it out

Marianne Morea and Millie Taiden have teamed up with a adorable theme of Romance by Fairytale. They have taken Cinderella and put a whole new modern spin to it! I hear we might get lucky with them choosing a few other famous tales put to modern light.

Both woman are authors of many wonderful pieces too long to mention in this
Review. It is wonderful for us for they have joined their talents for a short read for a nice afternoon interlude. The story set in LA, with a seamstress beset by two overbearing shrews and the prince who could whisk her away!!!

Check it out…..Hope for more!

You know I'm a sucker for Fairy Tales always have been, believed in the whole Prince Charming and the happy ever after. This new release of Milly Taiden's and Marianne Morea makes me happy and feeds my love for the almost fairy tale.

I'd would have gladly slapped both Candace and Alison. Isabel trying to do right by her father, works herself ragged and is often told by her old time friend Tessa. With all the hurt and sorrow Isabel just doesn't believe in magic.

Zander he knows he as to mate but is adament about choosing a mate suited for him not just the pack. He was shocked to find a "fresh" face with a grounded attitude in Tinsel City, where everything is mostly a farce.

A very cute story I love love loved it. A quick ready to a quick ending. A one sit read but worth it. Fun and sassy. I read and reviewed this story voluntarily. Enjoy

Isobel was working on her dream to become a famous designer for the stars. She was doing the job, at least for one up and coming star. She's so busy with her career she's forgotten her own needs. Her inner wolf, the one she doesn't understand, is poking her. As is her friend who wishes a chance at love for her.
Enter a four-footed chance. You need to read this no spoilers. The meeting awakens something in both of them. An interrupted lunch is the start. Could the interruption be the end of it?
Cinder..er Isobel gets a chance she can't miss. Will jealousy ruin it for her or will she find that inner strength she's been ignoring?
Princ...er Zander knows he has an obligation to his pack and to himself. Could Isobel be the answer to both?
Enjoy this quick, fun, romantic shifter read.

Howls Romance Book Eighteen. Multi-Author Standalone Series.

Isabel Lassiter has grown up with a boss she hates, but thinks she owes her loyalty. When she finds a lost dog on the strip and meets Zander Petrov, she thinks she might be able to follow her friend's advice to let go and have a good time. However, circumstances beyond their control interfere. Zander's wolf knows that Isabel is his mate, but when her not to him is destroyed, he cannot find her. With a little information about her job, he decides his upcoming party is the perfect opportunity to give fate a bit of a nudge.

If you've been waiting for a Cinderella re-telling with a supernatural twist, this is the book for you!

This was sweet retelling of Cinderella.
Isabel does a good deed when she stumbles onto a lost dog.
She does the right thing in a town where no one does anything without an ulterior motive.
When Zander arrives at the vet office he is elated and shocked that Isabel would help out a complete stranger.
Zander is immediately attracted to Isabel, his wolf is too.
Zander can sense something other about Isabel.
When she reveals that her mother was a shifter, things click.
Circumstances separate the pair and it takes a bit of luck and a grand party to get them back together.

First I want to say that this book is a great read and it takes on a new meaning to the Cinderella story we have read as a child , wolf style . Izzy aka Isabella is this over worked seamstress who is working for a very difficult woman, Candice, with a daughter, Allison, that is just plan awful person. Izzy is a half breed, wolf/human. Tessa is like Izzy's fairy godmother. Tessa has always wanted the best for Izzy. Zander is this very important man in Hollywood (producer) and he is one hot wolf. By chance he meets Izzy and it was like magic. To see if Zander can win the heart of Izzy you need to read this short but fabulous book. I do hope to read another book about these two.

This is a Cinderella story with bite! I loved it and didn't put it down. Even though I knew this book was written by two authors, I could not tell it.
Zander and Izzy hit it off from first "sniff". Zander knows she is his mate but doesn't want her to know who he really is...yet. Yowzer when these two get together it is hot as hell. The "step mom and step sister" characters are perfect. Mean, spiteful, irritating as crap. Are they redeemable? Meh.. read to find out. This is a perfect fairytale.

I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.

Although I enjoyed this story I found it to be really cute with a little bit of a Cinderella modern day spin to it. I didn't like the abrupt ending I wanted to know more about Isabel family. Overall a fast paced short story wish it was a little bit longer still a good and entertaining read. I voluntarily read and review this ARC no minority compensation was received the opinions I have expressed are my own.

Short, sassy and shifters romance

This is a great steamy short read. Shifters and Hollywood with drama thrown in. A woman finds a dog and meets the owner at the vet who insists he take her to lunch for finding his dog. They are both attracted to each other but are both forced to leave before they get contact info. Can they find their way to each other? I highly recommend this book.

Happily Ever after never felt so good.

Izzy is the all suffering cinderella or is she? Tessa is hippie fairy godmother we wish for. Sander is the strong kind hearted Prince. One evil want a be actress and Izzy's life is changed forever. No one mentioned that happily ever after good feel so good.

Her Fairytale Wolf is a bright new retelling of the Cinderella tale. These authors take on Disney and make this a sexy grown up tale of rising up. I love that while downtrodden Isabel isn’t a total wuss. I like that we get to know our prince, Zander, better and that he has more angst than Isabel.
This is a fun, sexy short that will have you smiling and fist-pumping by the end.

Her Fairy Tale Wolf is an awesome read, the only thing I was disappointed in was that it was over too soon. Isabel Lassiter is a lovable main protagonist that an everyday person like me can relate to. I won't lie, I wanted to choke the antagonist, but the main male protagonist, Zander, made everything better. I cannot wait to see where this story leads!

Anyone that knows me knows that Cinderella is my favorite fairy tale. Always has been. This delightful twist on the story lands us in the land of fairy tales, Hollywood. Cinderella is a designer, and Prince Charming is a director. How the authors twisted this story turned to be the perfect read for a very tired mind. The characters were fun, and I can't wait to see where this "world" leads us.

I enjoyed it. It's from Milly Taiden but I'm used to an epilogue and this one didn't have it. It is a good book to read with a fast paced story. I liked the twists to the story, the misunderstanding, and the hook up was interesting. Thanks Milly, please, keep the books coming. I love reading your books.

This was such a cute read. With a hint of the fairytale story Cinderella with a modern day spin to it put a smile on my face. Loved the fact this was a combo-author with two of my favs. These ladies sure know how to provide the reader with a cute plot, a bit of humor and some hot sexy romance to boot. I look forward to the next collaboration with my ladies.....

Loved this modern day re-telling of Cinderella, my favorite fairytale! Ms. Morea and Ms. Taiden have come together to give us another great addition to the Howl's Romance World. Zander and Isabel had to overcome some issues, but that just mad their HEA even better! Highly Recommended!

Could have had more but still good

I gave this book four stars because of the way it ended. It was a great book but I feel like the ending was abrupt. You were into who she really was and then bam its over. I would have liked to read about her introduction to her grandmother and introduction to the pack her mom came from. All in all it was a good and a sweet story.

Very short. Not much in regards to about the shifters untill the end of the story. More novella than novel. Was sweet o have a shifter story based around a princess fairy tale. But not more foundation to the story. Like the previous slightly bland. Really could of been alot more potential to this book.

Cinderella Retold

Isabel is stuck in an arrangement with her dad's old fling. With her mom's friend Tessa (funny old bird) on her side, she'll sever the ties that bind and spread her wings. If she happens to snag sexy Zander along the way, all the better. A fun read but the editing could have been much better.

This furry tale is along the lines of Cinderella complete with the evil step-mom and sister. And ending with the ball. I really enjoyed this book, but to me it seemed to end abruptly. It needed an epilogue at least.
