A Cat Builds a Raft

Families, Zeke knows, are complicated... and shapeshifter families are a whole other ball of catnip. Ten months ago, Zeke went off the Schuyler clan radar, determined to live a painless life of luxury as a housecat. It was a fantastic decision: his human, Toby, feeds him, cuddles him, and loves him with all the simple devotion he could ever want. Sure, he sometimes feels the desire to know Toby on a real, human basis, but it's squashed by terror and inertia.

But Zeke isn't the only one with a complicated family. A break-in heralds the end of Zeke's fantasy life and throws him headlong into a new drama. Toby's family is from the sea, where conflict is resolved a little differently. Zeke will have to use all his feline cunning to get him and Toby out of this mess safely--and both men will have to confront their fears, their families, and their future.
