Son of a Beast by Alex McAnders

“It’s hard being the only one of your kind.”

HARLEQUIN:
I was born a wolf shifter after my father tried to cure infertility. This would have stayed our family secret if my wolf didn’t kill my mother. Having to explain her death, my dad told the world what I am. Now I’m the most famous girl on the planet hoping no one recognizes me at a university in the middle-of-nowhere, Tennessee.
I was too young to remember my mother’s death, but it taught me to stop my shifts at all cost. I had gone years without shifting, but then I met Cage Rucker, the star quarterback destined to go pro.
Why does he send my wolf wild?
It has to be fate that brought us together. But, why would someone like him, who has everything — including the perfect girlfriend — fall for someone like me, an awkward, wolf shifter with more baggage than a luggage store?
“I can’t resist that girl!”

CAGE:
I don’t know what it is about her, but Harlequin Toro does something to me that makes me willing to throw away everything. But, would she want to be with me if she knew what I’m hiding?
Everyone thinks I don’t have a care in the world, but they’re wrong. There’s something tearing its way out of me and I don’t know what it is.
