Riley Dawson is a psychotherapist with a lycanthropic affliction. She's a werecoyote, to be precise.

A foundling adopted by wealthy parents, Riley led a privileged life until she fell in love with Fiona Bell, an evangelical preacher's daughter. Raging hormones, the full moon, and the pull of Fiona Bell on her teenage heartstrings triggered her first transformation. Unfortunately, her parents witnessed the change and sent her off to college with a trust fund and an agreement never to return home.

Twenty years later, Riley shares a lucrative therapy practice with Dr. Margaret Spencer. Margaret, her wife, and her gay brother-in-law are the only ones who know Riley's secret. Afraid of risking exposure, Riley restricts her love life to online hookups. But when a family is referred for treatment and Fiona Bell comes back into her life, all the rules of the client-therapist relationship are tested and Riley's world is turned upside down.

Praise from Publishers Weekly: "Injustice and self-acceptance drive this excellent paranormal lesbian romance...[Williams] manages to tug at the heartstrings without being preachy...Grounded in kindness, queerness, and just a hint of magic, this is sure to satisfy."

      Injustice and self-acceptance drive this excellent paranormal lesbian romance from Williams (As the Crow Flies). Twenty years after the eventful night when Riley Dawson lost her virginity to her first love, Fiona; turned into a werecoyote; and was swiftly sent away by her terrified adoptive parents, Riley has become a successful clinical social worker. When Fiona walks back into her life as a client struggling to free herself and her sensitive daughter from her abusive husband, Jim, Riley will do whatever it takes to help her. Williams draws powerful contrasts between Jim’s all-too human monstrosity and the nonmonstrous joy Riley finds in lycanthropy, and between the homophobic judgment of Fiona’s evangelical parents and the loving support of Riley’s pack, manages to tug at the heartstrings without being preachy. Riley and Fiona’s reconnection is simple and sweet, with their desire for justice against Jim energizing the plot. Grounded in kindness, queerness, and just a hint of magic, this is sure to satisfy.
