Elfin Canine

What if the family waiting to welcome you home wasn't entirely human?Hubbard Tillman doesn't remember his childhood, his parents, or how he ended up enlisting in the Army. When his service ends, amnesia is still all he has to show for it, so he does the only thing that feels right: he starts driving home. He isn't prepared for what's waiting for him there.In the quiet town of Wendel, Hubbard is pulled into a hidden community of self domesticated werewolves, the Wendeliers, who claim him as one of their own. As he's drawn deeper into their world of pack loyalty, old family secrets, and a slow building romance, he can't shake one question: has he finally found the belonging he's been missing since the war, or is he being consumed, piece by piece, by something far older and hungrier than family?Blending psychological suspense, paranormal fantasy, and the raw disorientation of a veteran rebuilding a self he can't remember, Elfin Canine is a sprawling, unconventional story about identity, trauma, and what it really means to belong. Bold, strange, and unflinching, it asks readers to decide for themselves whether Hubbard has found salvation, or a beautifully disguised trap.Contains mature themes, strong language, and violence; recommended for adult and mature YA readers.Perfect for readers who enjoy paranormal fantasy with emotional depth, unconventional werewolf lore, found family stories with a dark edge, and slow burn shapeshifter romance.About the AuthorJabez Flint lives a quietly ordinary life in Cambridge, New York, spending his time with his dog and family.
