Broomstick Breakdown (Magic, Fur and Claws 1)
Eve Langlais
Fate works in mysterious ways. Sophia is on her way to her first Halloween gathering for witches when her broomstick breaks down. Luckily, she lands at a garage where a hunky mechanic, after a spell of persuasion, agrees to act as chauffeur. Aidan is more than just a sexy driver though. As a wolf shapeshifter, magic doesn’t affect him, but he’s not immune to the powerful draw of his true mate. Mating should be simple, but he didn’t count on a stubborn witch making abduction his only option. With the factions they belong to discouraging mixed species mating, will they find love like fate intended?

I may be grasping at straws here, but when reading this book and The Wickedest Witch I noticed a couple of themes.
1. The non-vigin/non-slut liberated heroine. I love this. It sort of made me re-think the classic romance heroine. In the books I read I come across women who can be loosely categorized as virgins or sluts. The virgins have either had no sexual experiences or have had only a few mediocre experiences. The slut has slept around but is reformed either pre-story or during the story. In broomstick breakdown the heroine fits in neither of these categories and I loved it.
2. Not trusting the status-quo. In this book the heroine, a newly discovered witch who is trying to catch up to her peers, blindly believes information in the texts she reads. What I liked was that in the end the text wasn't shown to be 100% wrong, but only partially incorrect. Stuff isn't always black-and-white and even those who are trying to look out for your best interests can be poorly informed.
I like the Eve Langlais I've read. Seems to me like there are some good messages in her books.
