ASHBY LAKE AFTER DARK · BOOK TWO · FREE NOVELLA
B-Were
Once a month, Lindsay Simpson has a very big problem. And surprisingly large front teeth.
A very inconvenient transformation
After one extremely unfortunate bite, sensible forestry specialist Lindsay Simpson transforms into a beaver whenever the full moon rises. She has managed to keep it secret until her nocturnal tree-cutting attracts official attention.
Then a legendary tracker is brought in to find the mysterious animal roaming the Ashby Lake woods. Unfortunately, that tracker is Colter Hayes. Her ex-husband.
A funny, warmhearted second-chance paranormal romance about inconvenient transformations, unfinished love, and finding your way home.
Meet Lindsay, Colter and Ms. Beaver
Lindsay Simpson
Arborist. Botanist. Professional tree nerd. By day, Lindsay knows these woods better than anyone. Once a month, the woods know a rather different side of her.
Colter Hayes
A gifted tracker brought in to solve the mystery of Ashby Lake’s elusive beaver. He has no idea the creature he is hunting is Lindsay—his ex-wife.
Ms. Beaver
Appears once a month. Has excellent taste in poplar and a suspiciously tidy approach to tree work. Lindsay would rather you didn’t ask how she knows.
B-Were is a free paranormal romance novella in the Ashby Lake After Dark series. It stands on its own, so you can start with Lindsay and Colter’s second chance even if you haven’t met Rosa and Monty yet. Expect small-town humour, a very unusual full-moon problem, and two people who may have unfinished business beyond one extremely determined tracker.
