[Siren Classic Erotic Alternative Paranormal Romance, M/M, shape-shifters, HEA] The Strays Pack shifters are being attacked by their own kind under the influence of a potentially deadly virus. All the commotion draws unwanted attention from the government and also from neighboring packs, specifically the convocation of bird shifters. Sent by his alpha, Takoda Blackwing flies into Strays Preserve to deliver a message then beat feet, or feathers as the case may be, back to his home turf. He doesn't desire a social life with his own kind and has even less interest in any other species of shifter. Jason "Jase" Thatcher snags Koda just as he is about to take off and delivers a bomb in the form of this introduction--"I'm your mate." Koda won't mate a pup and leaves Jase confused and hurt but unwilling to be tossed aside. Both men are battling past hurts. Can they help one another embrace what fate has given them, or will the past make the future impossible? ** A Siren Erotic Romance
This was a fun shifter romance involving an eagle (Takoda), which is a unique shifter type for me, and, Jase, a wolf. Koda fought the mating for a while, but eventually, they got together and communicated all of their personal experiences and baggage with each other. I was trying to understand their pack dynamics, which are different from birds (and I don't believe in possible violence for punishment). The romance was precious, however, there were some issues that were never dealt with, or some questions that went unanswered. Other than that, the story was gripping in some parts, and passionate in others, and I did find it enjoyable. =)
