Aaron Loreto is a shifter, but he's not one that's well-known or often appreciated. In a world where shifters are known to humans, raccoon shifters aren't exactly considered highbrow. And Aaron's other self has proven to be too much for past boyfriends.
When Aaron meets Philip MacRory, he's drawn to the man immediately. There's something about Philip that makes Aaron think he can let his guard down. But past experience still makes him wary of divulging his secret.
But as they spend more time together, Aaron learns he may not be the only one with a secret...

Is it okay to call a story adorable and fun? Because that's exactly what I have to say about this story. It's a unique shifter story--how often does one see a raccoon shifter?--and the characters are great. This is definitely one of my personal favorites of this year's Daily Dose series from Dreamspinner Press. I definitely suggest giving it a read.

Aw, this was adorable. I wish it had been a little bit longer, because I was intrigued by the world and the characters. I don't want to spoil an important plot line, but the two main characters were awesomely perfect for each other, and the story made me giggle several times. I'll definitely read more from this author.

I really like reading shifter stories with different animals! The unusual ones like the two in this story! <3
(Not really unusual, I guess. I mean the ones usually not used, lol. You know what I mean!)

This was the cutest story EVAH!!! OMG so adorable.
Aaron is a raccoon shifter in a world full of predatory shifters, so he keeps it to himself. He meets Philip in a coffee house while working on some edits, and they hit it off immediately. Only he can’t seem to come up with a good way to tell Philip he turns into a raccoon. After a night of passion, Aaron learns that Philip has been keeping secrets too.
This story just gave me big warm fuzzies. It was well rounded for a short, and even for the quick timeline, I was happy for these two fellas. I believe in their connection.
Philip’s secret makes this more perfect, and I have the perfect image for this but I . Can’t. Use. It because that would be a spoiler, and that’s not fair to everyone else. Believe me, you will be tickled when you read it.
I liked the world building. Although brief, it was thorough and well rounded. I would love to know more about this world where shifters and humans co-exist in semi-harmony.
Aaron was a great character. He was stable and confident. He didn’t have any traumatic baggage, making this a great, light read.
Fans of unusual shifters will love this. It is just so freaking cute.
