Iron Flats Maverick by Elle Thorne

ShifterFest is held somewhere different every year. This year, it’s south of the Olympic National Forest in Washington, and Score Flanigan’s doing security. Every pack has to contribute two males—called tributes—to the cause. But hey, don’t go confusing them with the Hunger Games. This has nothing to do with that. They were called tributes long before some woman decided to write about kids killing each other in a post-apocalyptic world.

Score was planning to meet himself a wolf-honey for the night—until he was informed he was doing security. Humans aren’t technically involved. In fact, they aren’t wanted. This is a “Shifters Only” event.

It’s all about fellowship. Grown-up fun. Drinking. Carousing. The Wolf Council meets and discusses business. Some arrange marriages because that’s what some packs still do. Others get together to see family in other packs. A huge party.

Journalist Bliss Thompson heard there was a big thing happening. Hey, it only took her eight years to get a degree. Don’t judge. And now, if she wants a job, she has to prove herself to the editor of the local paper by getting a story. And her friend Hailey has found a doozy of a story. Sure, Hailey says it involves a werewolf festival, but everyone knows werewolves aren’t real. Still, it should be fun.
