Review: Blind Date with a Werewolf

Blind Date with a Werewolf by Patricia Briggs
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have never read any of these stories because I don't normally buy anthologies, so all of these stories, 5 in all, came as a surprise to me.

I enjoyed some more than others, although they were very similar---meet date, have a fight with a magical creature, vamp, Fey, etc, and Asil still wants to die until he meets someone new (and magical) and holy heck did he AND his wolf ever fall fast!

Thank goodness, because I was at the point where I thought Ms Briggs should just kill him off. He was really starting to get on my nerves.

I hope that we get another book in this series, and the rest of the pack can meet Ruby and we can see if his wolf has stayed in communication with Asil.

For the life of me, I couldn't figure out just who his Concerned Friends were, and it looks like I'm going to have to reread the series so I can figure out just who exactly this person fits in with the rest of the pack.

SUMMARY: "When the deadly werewolf Asil is gifted five blind dates by some anonymous “friends,” his reclusive life will never be the same, in this enthralling novel in stories from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Mercy Thompson series.

Includes two all-new stories as well as three previously published stories.

Dear Asil:

We are worried about you. A werewolf alone is a sad thing, especially at Christmastime. So we have a challenge for you: five dates in three weeks. We have taken the work out of it and connected you with five people from online dating sites. You should also know that we have informed the whole pack and instigated a betting pool. Have fun!

Sincerely,
Your Concerned Friends
