The Werewolf Meets His Match is book two in the Nocturne Falls series by Kristen Painter.
This story was entertaining, fun, and easy to read. I enjoy the concept of a town that celebrates Halloween 365 days a year and supernaturals can be who they are.
Here we meet Hank Merrow the town Sheriff, werewolf, and first born son of the Alpha. We also meet Ivy Kincaid the bad girl, werewolf, and wants out of her situation, but only has one option and that’s to do what her father says. I’m not a fan of Ivy, but I can understand her not trusting easily. I felt she should have told Hank, but I can see why she held back. Hank I loved. He’s a sweet man, Army Ranger, and Sheriff of the town, so he’s a hero and has a good head on his shoulder.
This is an instalove storyline. An arranged marriage to formalize the treaty between packs, but their are other things in play too. Hank and Ivy have three days to get to know each other; before they tie the knot. This was a fast romance, very fast. It’s got pack politics and a town full of fun supernaturals.
Overall, The Werewolf Meets His Match was an ok read. I enjoyed.
Rated: 3.5 Stars

I was funny and I enjoyed it, but it felt a bit more predictable than the previous- it's very much a girl rescued by a prince story.
While it was funny in places the domestic abuse that Ivy had suffered from really overshadowed everything else and stopped it being the light-hearted story that [b:The Vampire's Mail Order Bride|25610486|The Vampire's Mail Order Bride (Nocturne Falls, #1)|Kristen Painter|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1432737358s/25610486.jpg|45341154] was. While that aspect of the book was dealt with relatively sensitively it still overshadowed the rest (just by being so depressing).

I still don't buy into instalove, but I liked how this book took the time to resolve most of the secondary plots in a much more fulfilling manner than the first novel. I would have liked to witness the tribunal and legal trial and I'd love to know more about the secondary love story presented here. Additionally the fate of the Kincaid pack would be nice to know as well as if the other pack mentioned knew what Eric did. Okay I have a whole lot of questions but not nearly as many as last time.
It's a good story with intriguing characters, an amazing setting and a page turning plot. I really love this story and I'm downright enchanted by the town of Nocturne Falls, if I could live there I'd be on my way to Georgia this instant. This book and the series are highly recommended.
