QSFer Holly Day has a new MM Paranormal book out: Squirrel Found.
Squirrels should never travel alone.
Three months ago, Deneb Hartman lost his cousin. They were in a clearing, in their squirrel forms, when wolves attacked them. His cousin never made it back, and Deneb’s world shattered. He never did well on his own, and he’s been traveling aimlessly ever since.
Nicodemus Zervas owns a thrift shop in Doson. He’s a vampire surrounded by humans unaware of the supernatural world, and it’s lonely. For a year, he had a squirrel shifter working for him, but now he’s moved on and left Nicodemus behind. But then one day, there is a naked man jumping out of his recycling dumpster. When Nicodemus runs after him, all he can find is a squirrel.
Deneb found a nice little forest behind a thrift store to hang out in. Had he known people stayed in the building overnight, he wouldn’t have shifted where he could be seen. Nicodemus is almost sure the naked man and the squirrel are the same, but how to get him to show himself to Nicodemus? Bribe him with macadamia nuts?

Excerpt
Deneb slept in a hollow in one of the trees behind the thrift store. He hadn’t meant to, but when owls came hooting, it turned out he wasn’t in the mood to be turned into a late-night snack after all.
The clothes he’d gotten the day before were gone. He must be more careful in the future. He hadn’t realized people stayed in the building overnight. Someone must’ve spotted him when he jumped into the Dumpster. Or got out of it. Either way, he was glad he hadn’t shifted where anyone could see.
