Shesheshen is a shapeshifter, who happily resides as an amorphous lump at the bottom of a ruined manor. When her rest is interrupted by hunters intent on murdering her, she constructs a body from the remains of past meals: a metal chain for a backbone, borrowed bones for limbs, and a bear trap as an extra mouth. However, the hunters chase Shesheshen out of her home and off a cliff. Badly hurt, she's found and nursed back to health by Homily, a warm-hearted human, who has mistaken Shesheshen as a fellow human. Homily is kind and nurturing and would make an excellent co-parent: an ideal place to lay Shesheshen's eggs so their young could devour Homily from the inside out. But as they grow close, she realizes humans don't think about love that way. Shesheshen hates keeping her identity secret from Homily, but just as she's about to confess, Homily reveals why she's in the area: she's hunting a shapeshifting monster that supposedly cursed her family. Has Shesheshen seen it anywhere? Eating her girlfriend isn't an option. Shesheshen didn't curse anyone, but to give herself and Homily a chance at happiness, she has to figure out why Homily's twisted family thinks she did. As the hunt for the monster becomes increasingly deadly, Shesheshen must unearth the truth quickly, or soon both of their lives will be at risk. And the bigger challenge remains: surviving her toxic in-laws long enough to learn to build a life with, rather than in, the love of her life."-- $c Amazon.com. 650 0 $a Monsters $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Shapeshifting $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Magic $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Cursed objects $v Fiction. 650 6 $a Monstres $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 $a MeÌtamorphose $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 7 $a LGBTQ $2 homoit 655 7 $a Fantasy fiction $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726607 655 7 $a Novels $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921742 655 7 $a Romance fiction $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921732 655 7 $a Fantasy fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Romance fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Romans. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000475 776 08 $i Online version: $a Wiswell, John, 1981- $t Someone you can build a nest in. $b First edition $d New York : DAW Books, 2024 $z 9780756418861 $w (DLC) 2023051937 830 0 $a DAW book collectors ; $v no. 1959. 941 $a 15 952 $l DPPE403 $d 20240611024206.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20240604014243.0 952 $l TFPI826 $d 20240604012426.0 952 $l CMPE792 $d 20240525011225.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20240524011447.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20240523010439.0 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240514010927.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20240509013457.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20240504010257.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20240503010545.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20240502011131.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20240502010432.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20240409012936.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20240402012851.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20240402012156.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9299F508F0B811EE9EC0998A3BECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b C@VInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
