Solidify (Woodland Creek)

Woodland Creek Series. 30 Authors. 30 Shifter Stories. http://woodlandcreekseries.com/ This is a standalone paranormal shifter romance. Being a hero is overrated. Malachi Arend is a brazen loner who wants nothing more than to get the hell out of the small town of Woodland Creek. As he's leaving, he stumbles across a nurse named Phoebe Reynolds, a newly minted Caladrius shifter who takes the shape of a snow-white bird. She ignites something unexpected inside him, thwarting his attempt to leave. When a vengeful spirit begins attacking the townspeople, Malachi and Phoebe are drawn into the fray. Phoebe's transformation could be tied to the attacks, but whoever is responsible might also be seeking to finish what they started, and all of Woodland Creek may pay the price. Malachi never wanted to be a hero, but it seems he doesn't have a choice.
