A fun, original, very enjoyable book. I don't tend to gravitate to paranormal, but this was a good one to draw me in more.

Well this was fun!!!! A fast paced read full of romance and vampires. What's not to like. If you enjoy your paranormal, you need to read this.

It was not as lol funny as I was led to believe but I totally agree with the Venom comparisons. The audiobook is definitely the way to go - Aiden Snow may be my new favorite male narrator. I’m looking forward to continuing the series!

It was an extremely fun and witty novel about a werewolf and a witch in love, with lots of pop culture reference and I loved it! It was so very entertaining to read!

I loved this book! The characters were really well written and their chemistry was great! It was perfect all around for me. I’m also a huge fan of this author and her other books.

Thank you so much for allowing me to read and review your titles.
I do appreciate it and continue to review books that I get the chance to read.
Thanks again!

I adored this book!!!! Mateo, the werewolf who has a hex placed on him so he cant change so he enlists the helps of Evie, a witch. They are totally attracted to each other and there is a lot of sexual tension and it was so fun to read. Steamy, fun, witty dialogue, great pop culture references and set in New Orleans. Simply wonderful. Well done, Juliette Cross. Cant wait to start books 2. Thank you for the advanced readers copy!

Evie and Mateo were absolutely adorable together. They had my heart from beginning to end.
Evie is a quirky, geeky, and good hearted witch that can't say no to those who need. I loved all the wonderful geeky references Juliette added to the book. It doesn't matter if you are or are not a fan of comics and star wars and all the other things referenced in the book, you will love Evie's passion for it and be enthralled by it the same way Mateo was.
Mateo suffered -due to his wolf- a serious case of split personality! Mateo is soft, kind, caring, loving, careful with his words... his wolf is brash and focused on only two things: fighting and sex. And upon meeting Evie, fighting and Evie.
I loved how different he is from his wolf to start and how much the two of them become one as the story progressed. It was both sweet and funny.

Wolf shifters are my ultimate favorite. So there is a chance I am a tad itty bitty bias. I also think Juliette Cross is an amazing human being, so that might maybe perhaps make me a little bias too... but hey, I will try to be fair.
The book had one negative... sort of... kind of... I don't see it as a negative but a necessary evil... but fair is fair so here it goes: it was a tad slow and info dumping at times. I personally believe that is necessary when you start a new series, how else are the readers going to get acquainted with your new world?! But, yah... there were moments were I wanted the story to move along a little faster.

I finally got round to reading this novel during the pandemic. Wolf Gone Wild was not what I was I expected. It was a fun and quirky paranormal romance which made a nice change from the domineering alpha werewolves that are so commonplace in paranormal romance novels.

Wolf Gone Wild by Juliette Cross is the perfect for readers new to paranormal romance and current fans alike. This book has a great cast of characters, including Evie and her sisters. I loved how this book brought you into Cross's world of magic. And I especially enjoyed the music easter eggs. I love when a book scene has a music reference! A fun paranormal perfect for any season! Especially fun to read at Halloween.

Wolf Gone Wild follows Evie, a witch - hexbreaker to be precise and Mateo, a werewolf with a problem. In Wolf Gone Wild Mateo hasn't been able to shift in months and his inner wolf 'Alpha' is driving him crazy. Mateo seeks out Evie, one of the Savoie sisters, to ask her to break his hex. It turns out that breaking this hex isn't as easy as it seems. In order to break the hex, Evie and Mateo spend a lot of time together and grow closer by the day.

Wolf Gone Wild is an adult romance and it has all the right elements to be a success: hot werewolves, smart, funny and badass witches, New Orleans, hilarious banter and a great premise. I was hooked from page one.

Evie is an amazing and fun main character and all her Marvel and Star Wars preferences were right up my alley. You just can't help falling for Mateo and the hilarious banter that he has with his 'inner' wolf Alpha. I was literally choking with laughter at times. The Savoie sisters were also a great addition to the story with each sister having her own persona and power. So good!

Very excited to pick up Don't Hex and Drive, the second installment in this Stay A Spell series by Juliette Cross.

Juliette Cross’s Wolf Gone Wild was a delectable combination of werewolves and witches to produce a fantastic romantic read.
Mateo hasn’t been able to shift for the last three months. Consequently, his wolf has “taken residence in his mind” continuously taunting him and driving him crazy with suggestions of fighting every guy that looks him in the face or taking to bed any girl who flirts with him. He is just one step short of going crazy. Evie, on the other hand, is a Savoie – a family of powerful witches. Their coven has a strict rule – no werewolves. Why? Because they are temperamental.
So, when Mateo comes begging at her door, will Evie refuse him?

You already know the answer. However, Cross makes it worth your time to read this book. Two persons of opposite polarity—one a witch, another a werewolf; one an extrovert, another a loner—come together to make you fall in love.

The romance between Evie and Mateo is to die for. There is oodles of sizzling chemistry between them. It is a passionate, slow-burn romance, yet steamy and physical. Exactly, my kind of romance.
However, what I loved the best in this book was the third person. Yes, you read it right. The third person here is none other than Mateo’s inner wolf. (Let’s name him, Mr. Wolf.) Oh, boy! Mr. Wolf is so snarky, sassy, and humorous. Further, he is impulsive as hell. Hence, it was a treat to read the battle of wills between Mateo and Mr. Wolf. Mateo always tries to suppress the wolf in him so that he does not commit anything rash, but Mr. Wolf has a mind of his own, literally.

Moreover, a little folklore sprinkled throughout the story and serious action (at the end) involving witches, werewolves, and vampires further bolsters the plot of this book. The climax is satisfying too without any cliffhanger. Further, I can already see the beginnings of many more great pairs to emerge from Cross’ world of these paranormal creatures. I am keeping my fingers crossed to follow their love stories as well.
If you are a romance aficionado looking for a fast-paced, steamy, and breezy read to make you forget the world for some time, Wolf Gone Wild by Juliette Cross is perfect for you.

A werewolf and a witch.... This is the story of Mateo and Evie and begins the Juliette's latest series. Mateo is seeking a witch, believing he is cursed. His wolf is constantly in his head with insane thoughts. Showing up on Evie doorstep causing chaos, Evie sees his desperation. He needs help. But what happens when one witch disobeys the house rules... No werewolves allowed! And Mateo's wolf only wants her. Juliette does a really good job on character creation and world building. I voluntarily reviewed a copy of Wolf Gone Wild provided by netgalley.

This is the first I've read of Juliette Cross and I wanted to enjoy it. It had some really funny parts but I couldn't connect the romance between the MC's and that is essential for me.

“A big, bad werewolf just blew me a kiss. That was the sexiest and cutest thing I’d ever seen” -Wolf Gone Wild
LitBuzz Readers: this is a shifter book I can whole-heartedly recommend to you! Wolf Gone Wild by Juliette Cross is the first book in the Stay a Spell series and is the fun, funny, fast-paced paranormal shifter and witchy romance that will leave you howling for more!

Evie Savoie is known as the Hex-Breaker in her family, a coven of witches who live in paranormal-centric quarter of New Orleans. A hopeless fixer, she wants to help all who cross her path, even a mysterious werewolf despite her eldest sister’s steadfast rule of absolutely no werewolves. Mateo Cruz is desperate to find relief: from the agony of not being able to shift during the last two full moons, and from the constant verbal diarrhea that his Wolf leaves ringing in his head. When Mateo learns that Evie is a renowned hex-breaker, he stops at nothing to convince her to help him. It doesn’t hurt that Evie’s mere presence quells his Wolf’s chatter, but Evie also ignites a hunger within both Mateo and his Wolf, Alpha.

This is no ordinary shifter romance, bookworms. I devoured Wolf Gone Wild because I was enthralled not only by the witty banter of the characters, but also because of the steamy chemistry between Evie and Mateo, as well as Evie and Alpha. Wolf Gone Wild was a new dynamic for me. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing how both Evie and Mateo managed their obvious budding feelings for each other while simultaneously trying to unravel the mystery surrounding the reason why Mateo is unable to shift. A surprising theme that plays throughout the entire story is being true to oneself, as well as a hefty appreciation of art and fandoms such as Star Wars. If you throw a solid nod to a Star Wars fan like myself, you know I’m going to love it.

Juliette Cross also gives little sprinkles of hints of books to come. Getting to know Evie’s sisters and extended family is part of the lush and magical world of the Stay a Spell series. I loved Wolf Gone Wild and I absolutely cannot wait for Book 2, which is due to be out later this Fall.

I love over the top ALPHAS!! YES!! Wolf Gone WIld by Juliette Cross has a ton of wit and snark. It's also hot and so much fun!

This was a middle of the ground read for me. It started of pretty strong, petered out a bit, and then picked back up at the end. The writing was solid though, and I look forward to reading more of this author.

As a thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for providing me with an advanced reader copy I shall give an honest review of “ Wolf Gone Wild” by Juliette Cross. This novel completed everything it set out to do. It provided enjoyment. I read this novel at the end of a long day to slow my mind down. It gave suspense, romance, and intrigue. The novels setting was in New Orleans which offered the appeal of set novels set in the south with supernatural themes. The novel features a trio of witchy sisters who come together to aid a Werewolf who has just moved to the city.The novels prose was relatable and had a quick sense of humor I could not get enough of. The overall charm of this novel was plentiful and recommend it to those who enjoy light reads with compelling characters, intriguing situations and supernatural themes. The romance between Witch (Evie Savoie) and Werewolf (Mateo Cruz) will keep you wanting to come back for more. Thankfully this novel has a sequel coming out in September. This will center around another Savoie sister (Isadora). Overall I give this novel four out of five stars on good reads.

Thank you Netgalley for the chance to read and review this title. I will review this title at a different date.

***Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for providing me with a digital copy of this book in exchange for an honest review***

I thought I'd give this a try, but I realized I am not that big of a fan of werewolf/witch books. Not really my genre.
