Flying Hard - Santa Cruz Shifters, #1

Ty wants to fly, but that choice was taken away. Ty: I'm a hybrid shifter, a freak who doesn't fit. My wing is damaged, so the ravens don't accept me. Pumas don't want me 'cause I shift to raven. I spend my nights drinking my memories away or screwing them into oblivion. But the most glorious male wolf I've ever seen needs my help. Dex is half-starved and rough around the edges, but I'm going to make sure Half Moon Territory gives this wolf a home.
He's been protecting us for weeks, from what I'm not sure. He says doesn't want me but I know it's a lie. Yeah, I'm a flirt, the kind of shifter no one in their right mind would want for a mate, but I'll make this alpha wolf beg for me. I'm already begging for him. Dex wants a home, a peaceful life and maybe a dozen donuts. Dex: My pack kicked me out, my mate died in the Shifter Wars, and I've survived three years living rough.
But I've discovered a new territory in the Santa Cruz Mountains and it may turn out to be the kind of home I've searched for. Only this crazy raven shifter keeps throwing himself at me. Yeah, he's hot as hades and he makes me smile, even laugh, but I may never be ready to settle down again. Especially not with a shifter who takes anyone with a beating heart to his bed.  No. If Ty wants to be with me, he's going to have to follow my very specific rules.
Alpha rules. On top of everything, members of my old wolf pack have been sniffing around my new territory. Looks like I'm going to have to organize the defense of Half Moon and protect its citizens, especially Ty, who's teasing his way into my heart with every smile.***Flying Hard is a M/M Paranormal Romance in the Breath of Air Collection and Book 1 in the LGBTQ+ Santa Cruz Shifter Series.
