Warlander Silverback

Lucas Slater is coming home.

His boss is the dragon who has been keeping shifters both in check and protected since they were forced to come out into the light all those years ago. Humans have granted shifters the freedom to police their own—Damon Daye is the judge, and Lucas Slater is his personal hand of justice. Born in the very mountains he has gone out into the world to protect, Lucas hasn’t been home in years. He is a different beast now than when he left these mountains as an adolescent gorilla shifter. Now he is a fully-mature, dominant silverback gorilla with years of fight training and no family group to anchor him down. Years ago something happened that catapulted him out into the world to find himself. Now that he is returning to Damon’s Mountains, everything he imagined is coming true. These mountains tug at his animal and press him to put down roots that could be the end of him. He is here to do a job, but when he saunters into a familiar trailer park and finds out the name of his next target, everything gets turned upside down. And even more unsettling? A ghost from his past has been brought in to test him, but for the life of him, he can’t tell if the gorgeous falcon shifter has been sent to trap him…or to free him.

Jenna Brown is just doing what she’s been asked.

She is living happily in Damon’s Mountains…but there is something missing, and her falcon is acting out. When she becomes part of an elaborate plan to draw one of the sons of the mountains back into her territory, the outcome feels important for reasons she can’t explain. She has a history with Lucas Slater, but he has no idea how big it is. He is different now in ways that are calling to her body. Massive, dominant alpha male with a big destiny ahead of him, and she has never laid eyes on a man sexier than him. The problem? Her animal is tethering a bond to him, and everyone knows Lucas Slater is a leaver whose animal attaches to no one. She is setting herself up for a big hurt, and messing up important parts of Damon Daye’s plans as their destinies begin to unravel.

They are both a part of something that is so much bigger than themselves—but every wise shifter knows that if you love something, you must be able to set it free.

A new Crew is forming in Damon’s Mountains. Readers have asked for the return “home” for years, and T.S. Joyce has listened in this first epic, full-length homecoming. Read on for new alliances, revelations, tested loyalties, old friends, Crew bonds, flaws that feel like perfection, turmoil that turns to soul-deep devotion, epic shifter battles, and an ever-evolving rebuild of something that was broken, but now will become the future of the mountains.

There’s a new Crew in town.
The Warlanders are going to take us home.
