Not Ordinary by Catherine Lievens

Peregrine has been on the run most of his life. His ability to heal makes him a target, and some people will go to any lengths to get their hands on him. But as long as he doesn’t heal anyone, his magic can’t be used to locate him. He’s safe in Rosewood, and for the first time in his twenty-nine years, he’s able to make friends.

Jarvis is dull. He’s not athletic or popular like his siblings, and he’s always been aware of that. Even his job at the coffee shop is boring, but he enjoys it, and it allows him to watch the people he wishes he could be friends with, including the newcomer, Peregrine.

Peregrine doesn’t understand why he’s intrigued by Jarvis until they get close and they realize they’re mates. It’s not just that, though. No matter how ordinary Jarvis thinks he is, he’s anything but, and Peregrine falls for the man he is, not for the bond between them.

When Jarvis is hurt, Peregrine doesn’t think twice about helping him. He can’t heal him, but he can take his pain away, even though it means the people who are after him will find him. Peregrine has to run again so he can keep Jarvis and the pack safe, but Jarvis is stubborn and follows him.

Will they be able to run fast enough that the people trying to capture Peregrine won’t get their hands on him? Or will Peregrine lose everything he never allowed himself to wish for right after he found it?
