Wooing a she-wolf isn't as easy as it looks in this bold paranormal romance from USA Today bestseller Terry Spear

In Silver Town, the secrets run deep...

Alpha werewolf Brett Silver has an ulterior motive when he donates a prized family heirloom to the Silver Town hotel. Ellie MacTire owns the place with her sisters, and he's out to get her attention.

Ellie is even more special than Brett knows. She's a wolf-shifter with a unique ability to commune with the dead. Ellie has been ostracized, so she protects herself and those she loves by revealing nothing-not even when strange and dangerous things begin to happen in Silver Town. And especially not to the devastatingly handsome and generous wolf who's determined to win her over...

Linda's Thoughts:
“Do you believe in ghosts?”

Between a Wolf and a Hard Place by Terry Spear is the twenty-first installment in her Heart of the Wolf series in which two wolves in the close-knit wolf-town of Silver Town find romance.  Told from multiple third person perspectives, it’s a quick, amusing and light-hearted story with a simple, uncomplicated plot – in other words, a perfect escape read. It is the story of alpha Brett Silver and Ellie MacTire.

The shenanigans all start with Brett’s donation of his great-aunt’s piano to the Silver Town Hotel. What Brett didn’t know was that accompanying the piano was a hitchhiking ghost identified as his great-aunt Matilda. At the hotel, Matilda quickly made her presence known as she is determined to pass on a missive to Ellie. Ellie happens to own the Silver Town Hotel with her two sisters.

Meanwhile, Brett is determined to win Ellie’s heart. The couple has been dating for a while, but Brett badly wants to take the next step. With his great-aunt generating raucous mischief at the hotel creating issues keeping the guests oblivious to the ghostly goings-on, is it possible that Brett will finally be convinced that ghosts do exist? The answer has huge consequences for the couple as Ellie refuses to mate with a wolf that doesn’t believe in ghosts. Of course, she won’t tell Brett that as Brett and Ellie work together to solve an old mystery.

Even though this book is part of a series, the story works very well as a standalone read, There are interconnected characters with the previous books and fans of the series will certainly enjoy catching up with previous favorite characters. Rest assured, though, that there is absolutely no need to be aware of the previous books to fully enjoy this tale.

Following please find a few favorite quotes from Between a Wolf and a Hard Place:

She was thinking she needed to post a letter in the Lonely Hearts column in the Silver Town Gazette: She-wolf seeking male wolf who believes in ghosts. No others need apply.
--- 

“Brett will need some clothes if someone can drop some by.”
“All we need is a bear rug,” Meghan said.
--- 

“You are such a wolf.”
“When it comes to you? Absolutely.”

It is a glowing testament to Terry’s storytelling skills that this far into the series, her stories are still fresh, original and fun-to-read. This one, in particular, had plenty of silly humor with some truly hilarious scenes that had me laughing out loud. If you enjoy entertaining paranormal romances with swoon worthy alpha heroes in the form of hot wolves, ghosts, and an ending guaranteed to make you smile, I would highly encourage you to check out Between a Wolf and a Hard Place!
