Only love stands between two lonely, misunderstood boys and death.

To save a friend, Gabriel broke his clan’s most sacred rule—he shifted to his owl form in front of humans. Now banished, Gabriel lives in a hollow tree and subsists on rodents, unable to shift back and slowly losing what’s left of his humanity.

Vincent seems to have it all, but the secrets he’s hiding are killing him. Sometimes it feels like ending everything might be better, and he has no one to talk to but the owl from the hollow tree….

Only the closer the boy and owl become, the more dangerous it gets. Gabriel might think his clan has forgotten about him and what he did. But they haven’t. And they’ll do whatever it takes to make sure Gabriel doesn’t break the law again….

I’m so excited to be able to offer this self-published, slightly revised edition of Owl, and on Halloween! How appropriate for a book about moonlight and owls! And love! (Well, it’s always a good time for love, right?)

I know this is considered young adult, and no, it doesn’t have much sex, but it’s got plenty of tension and edgy scenes and danger and a happy ending. Like most of my stories, it’s paranormal. It’s got shifters (not dragon, sorry) but who doesn’t love owls?

So imagine being sixteen years old and getting locked in your shifted form by your clan leader (your grandfather, no less!) and being thrown out of your clan because you tried to save a friend from getting beaten up, and it’s really hard to survive as an owl in Vermont in the winter… Three years later, you think everyone’s forgotten you and maybe it’s better if you forget them too and really become an owl for the rest of your life… It’s getting easier to forget all the time… Then you see this really hot guy, the type you used to be really into, but you accidently drop a half-eaten squirrel on his head…

Honestly, have you ever read a book where the main characters meet like that? Anyway, it’s on Kindle Unlimited, so give it a try? Or get the eBook. The print edition isn’t out yet, but will be soon.

Oh, and my husband and I made this cover, and I actually took the photo of the owl. I’ll tell that story in another post.

Thanks!

And happy Halloween!
