(This book has nothing to do with furries, otherkins, or irl therianthropes. Both by their own definitions and my own, we have nothing to do with each other. Keep being your weird selves just don't pretend I'm a part of those groups because I wrote this book with animal/human hybrids in it. Any comments trying to talk about furries or otherkins will be deleted because it makes me physically uncomfortable. Therians are ok tho because it's basically the fancy way to say people who have spirit animals)
There are two races in this world, humans and therianthropes, which are humans with animal qualities, that can shapeshift into their animal counterpart.
The therianthropes, once divided by predator and prey, joined together in hiding after the humans began to hunt therianthropes for sport.
California, a young grizzly bear therianthrope, was always curious to see the world beyond the forest he and his people lived within.
Texas, a young farmhand, always wanted to catch a therianthrope, believing it would make him the hero of his village after violent massacres and thefts had been performed on it, supposedly by therianthropes.
But when these two young men's paths collide, secrets, strange new feelings, and a magical adventure turns everything they thought they knew about the others race upside down.
