A novella.
Free from Benoit, the
man who made him a shifter, twenty-two-year old Jacks tries to get on
his own two feet while crashing with Farzan, the only person who knows
about his werecat nature. It will take a grueling schedule of
off-the-books jobs and a steady mantra of self-control.
Then a raid on a bodega pushes Jacks to transform into his mountain lion self to fend off a group of gun-wielding gangbangers.
Jacks scrambles to disguise the truth, but the incident leaves a thundering
wake of questions. The police want to know what really happened to a
freaked-out young thug in custody. Farzan, who has been crushing hard on Jacks since they met, begins to doubt that it’s safe to have Jacks
living with him. Jacks wants to know where he belongs: with the man who
took him in when no one else would or among his own kind. As he searches for answers, Jacks is confronted by a secret shifter society The
Glaring. They have come to avenge the death of Jacks’ maker and to claim a powerful item that Benoit left behind.
