Shapeshifting shadow man with wings and tentacles, yeah yeah fine, no problem. The only part I did a double take was when she wrapped her calf over the wooden pole at the strip club. Is it that the people are so bad at running a club, they have wooden poles cause they're incompetent? Anyway, I love this novella, it's sweet, delivers on the shapeshifting smut and it's got a strong heroine who embraces whatever life throws her way.
