Virgin (Awakenings #1)

Joam is a varnal, a shape-shifter endowed with otherworldly sexual powers, but his talents go untapped because he fears the beast within himself--not to mention he can't let anyone know he's gay. Working a dirty job for slave wages, Joam is unaware that his boss at the auto shop, Higgs, has his own reasons for keeping him a virgin--he's made a deal with Gregor Walsh, a powerful varnal from the big city who needs a special sacrifice for an arcane ritual. Blake's a hustler on the run for his life. When his car breaks down outside of Beulah, he finds more than just a mechanic in Joam. Blake has done it all, but when it comes to making love with a varnal, he's a total virgin. It doesn't stop him, or Joam, from enjoying the experience to the fullest. But when Higgs and Walsh discover that their pristine sacrifice has been deflowered, there's hell to pay.
