Saving (The Hawk Ascending Series Book 1)

Description

What the heck happened? One minute I was in my workshop creating a new sculpture. The next I was being given CPR on the dirt road outside . . .  By my prickly ex-girlfriend Diana’s sister Helena, of all people!

Diana ditched me a decade ago, telling me I was a “loser” and we had no future together. I’ve slaved away ever since to prove her wrong. I’m back on the reservation now after living in Europe making a name for myself in the art world—Edward Whitehawk.
Things sure have changed since I’ve been gone. Helena has grown into a skilled doctor, and the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen. The two of us are getting closer every minute we spend together. The trouble is, I can guess what my ex will do if she EVER finds out the two of us are falling in love. It ain’t gonna be pretty . . .

But the heart wants what it wants. I desire Helena like I crave the freedom of soaring in the mountains every time I shape-shift. The big question is, at what point can I confess to the woman I’m obsessed with that I’m a hawk?

Revealing my supernatural powers to Helena could mean losing her forever. Yet not telling her might also be the path to her dumping me faster than Diana did all those years ago—and I never even told her my secret.

My only glimmer of hope is Helena’s powerful brother-in-law Artem trying to help me get to the bottom of whoever tried to kill me. He reveals he’s a werewolf, the Alpha of the local pack. Whoa. How bad can hawk be for Helena after a bombshell like that?!
Except Artem warns me that to stay FAR away from Helena because of “bad magics.” Yet his snarling is only making me ache for Helena more than ever, even though it’s clear that the woman I’m falling in love with has some deep, dark secrets of her own. Can I manage to live long enough to find out what they are . . . ?
