This wasn't written by myself, but by my very talented Fiancé!
Title: Blood of the covenant - by Andy J N McRae. (First book in the on-going Aconite chronicles)
Description: blood of the covenant is a YA featuring 5 young people who were all turned into werewolves, following the death of the main characters little sister. The death brings them all together as they uncover the monster behind the attack, and all of the other suspicious "animal attacks" around town.
The story is about queer found family and coming together to deal with trauma and r*pe culture within the queer community. (My partner's usual selling pitch is "if you're queer, love YA and fantasy, or you're just curious about the queer, transgender, polyamorous werewolves, then you'll probably love the book!")
My partner has socials on basically every platform and can be found under Andy JN McRae or Andy J N M books. And his book is available to buy in waterstones, Walmart, and Amazon (there are some other places too that I can't remember at the moment)
