Puppet Play by Clare Peak

Rayford Billings desperately wants to be taken seriously. Trouble is, he does a radio show about serial killers, haunted houses and anything supernatural or in the urban legend category. His public access radio show in Utah’s high desert isn’t exactly flourishing but he has a plan to boost ratings: catch a local monster in action and report on it. The locals have talked for years about a werewolf living up in the hills, and when Rayford ventures up there one moonlit night, he is stunned to find a huge, howling werewolf … that strangely turns him on. He quickly rushes away, perturbed and eager to get on the air …

… The calls pour in as the locals share stories upon stories of their werewolf terrors. According to them, it’s a villainous and terrible creature that wreaks havoc on their town. Rayford, excited to have found success, eggs them on…

…Until the sexy Evan Brown walks in and calls bullshit: wearing a tight plaid shirt that hugs his enormous muscles, Rayford is stunned into silence. He’s never been so hot for a man in his life. Is the attraction mutual? Evan flashes him a wolfish grin and Rayford wants to rip that plaid shirt off those washboard abs with his teeth …
… But Evan wants Rayford to abandon the story. He says the locals are just the nuts and dolts of the community. And he warns that their mob mentality might turn violent…

Will Rayford listen to Evan or will there be bloodshed in a small Utah town?
