Boiling Point

For readers in a rut, looking for something different with their shifter fiction… Boiling Point is a shifter romance that's not like all the other shifter romances…

Set in a rich but intimate science fiction world, with an anthropomorphic cast reminiscent of Brian Jacques' Redwall series, Boiling Point offers character and relationship arcs in the vein of Xiran Jay Zhao's Iron Widow or Kristin Cashore's Graceling series.

Fiery protagonist Charra may remind readers of Marissa Meyer's Cinder, Leigh Bardugo's Alina Starkov, or Laini Taylor's Karou. Meanwhile, there are plenty of transformations, flirtations, and divinations to go around -- and a heart-rending "why choose" ending for Charra and her two love interests, Belario and Minnor.

What does it take to live -- and die -- with no regrets?

Charra isn't interested in the boring life her parents chose for her, nor the equally boring suitor. In front of the whole city, on the night of the midsummer party, Charra claims her independence.

Before the implications of her bold choice can settle in, Charra is swept off her feet by a mystery that threatens her entire island home -- and by two miiquils who will equally steal her heart.

Charra has to fight to save Naushena from falling into the sea.

Will she fight falling in love -- twice?

Will she realize what her blood family means to her in time to tell them?

Or will she let the destiny she's always chased slip from her grasp?
