About this book
What happens when a werewolf walks into a bar and falls in love with a man he can’t smell?
Charming gay romance from a New York Times bestselling romantic comedy author.
Tank is working as a bouncer at a nightclub when he notices something odd about the sexy-as-sin bartender. Isaac is odorless, sublimely snarky, amazingly popular with shifters, and terrified.
A MAN WITHOUT A SCENT
Isaac is trying to escape his past. He hides in San Francisco because everyone knows that there are no werewolves in the Bay Area.
A WOLF WALKS INTO HIS BAR
Can a gentle werewolf with a trampled heart show a man who’s been running scared his whole life that sometimes there are monsters worth running towards?
"Carriger has created a world that’s uniquely her own in the shifter-verse that I thoroughly enjoy visiting and can’t wait to see what comes next."
Boy Meets Boy reviews
Delicate Sensibilities?
This book contains awkward but sweet muscled shapeshifters, M/m sexy times and horrible puns. If you get offended easily, then you probably will. San Andreas Shifter books include hilarious blue language, dirty deeds, and outright admiration for the San Francisco Bay Area. Not for the faint of heart or mouth or tongue.
Acclaimed author Gail Carriger (writing as G. L. Carriger) brings you the next in her delightful gay werewolves series, perfect for fans of R.G. Alexander, Alexis Hall, or R Cooper. The San Andreas Shifter books stand alone and do not need to be read in any order, but if you're a stickler, this book comes after The Sumage Solution and before The Enforcer Enigma.

I reread this book in preparation for the third book in the series, and I liked it so much the second time around too! This is the second book in the San Andreas pack series, and you should read the books in order, because there be spoilers in this one. This is a romance book with explicit gay sex scenes, not usually my cup of tea, but a Gail Carriger is my favorite kind of book, and I don’t mind the sex scenes at all – the form a natural part of the book. This is a wonderful, sweet, awesome...

This second novel (and third work) in the San Andreas shifters series veered away from from where I thought the obvious romance series progression would go (either Lovejoy and Mana or Colin and Judd (who will be next!!)), to focus on the pack member previously best represented by snarky commentary on the obvious suitability of his nickname: Tank. This entry is a little more somber than the previous two. It reveals and processes very real issues of self worth for both the main characters, and...

The magic of GL Carriger is how she weaves the stories of several characters into incredible, heartfelt and, yes, sexy stories. I'm a huge fan of JR Ward's Blackdagger Brotherhood... but I think this series might even be better... and that's remarkably hard to say. In this series, the characters struggle with remarkably human challenges despite the fact that they are shifters. They want love in their lives, they protect their brothers, they squabble and, through it all, they LOVE their pack....

4.5 stars. That half-star deduction is for some repetition, and the last part of the ending was uninspired. But the rest? Loved it. I'm enjoying the characters and worldbuilding, and the plots and emotional arcs are great so far. On to book 3. )

I'm so glad Gail returned to this universe. It's so much fun, this sort of \"what if?\" of the Parasol Protectorate universe. The characters are always brilliant, complex and awesome and sweet; honestly Gail does the best romance. Even when it's insta-love style it's cute as heck. I do love this more explicit series of hers too, even if sometimes I skip a little out of personal preference. It reads like the author enjoyed writing it. These two main characters in particular are just--adorable. I...
