    His older sisters tend to mom him almost to death, and he finds his solace in working on cars, not really considering the future beyond the next project. He's happy enough with the status quo, and though a mate would be nice, he's not really looking. Enter a cutie with big brown eyes who keeps popping up wherever Riley goes, and Riley just might be in trouble. Quentin Quentin Williams is the 19-year-old son of paranormal enthusiasts who classify themselves as vampire hunters, were-wolf killers, and ghost chasers. As far as Quentin knows, they’ve never seen a single paranormal aside from him, and they don’t even know he is one. He constantly struggles to hide what he really is so he doesn't end up the subject of his own family's paranormal blogging. But he's got problems: he's never alone (they live in a motorhome), he’s spindly (if he actually met a were-wolf, he’d be toast), and he’s asthmatic (running through musty houses and damp woods is an issue). The fact that his family does everything in their power to make his life miserable certainly doesn't make things easier. A chance encounter on a full moon night, and both Riley's and Quentin's lives will change forever. That is, if they live long enough. Some unexpected revelations turn their worlds upside down, and the whole Susilauma clan will have to pull together to save Quentin and Riley's mating—and their lives. HEA with no cliff-hangers.
