About the author

C.D. Rachels

26 books123 followers
CD Rachels has been coming up with stories since he was little. At first it was all about superheroes and pocket monsters, but his genre of choice has expanded since puberty.

He’s been consuming young adult gay fiction since he was a teen, but within the past five years moved up to the big leagues of gay adult romance. In 2020 during quarantine, he burned through more male/male romance books than he ever had in the previous 29 years combined.

He lives in New York City with the love of his life and is a nurse by trade. When he’s not reading and writing, he’s playing board games and practicing music. He is honored to become a self-published author, and if you’re reading this, your support means so much to him that it’s giving him a tingly feeling (in a good way).

Short and sweet

This is exactly what I'm looking for in a shifter/monster novella.

A super sweet meet cute.
Two endearingly sweet main guys.
A touch of supernatural zippy zappy. (Literally) HEA for the win.

The perfect introduction to the series.
