Prickly as a Porcupine

The truth has a way of poking through.

Ariel Rossi is one of Dr. Grimm’s greatest successes—or so she thought. Now in FUC custody and slowly being de-brainwashed, she’s convinced escape is her only option… until a soft-hearted porcupine shifter begins poking holes in everything she believed. Maybe the real monsters weren’t the ones she was warned about, after all.
Joline Kaminski has never been on point when it comes to relationships. After all, who wants to cuddle a porcupine? Becoming a FUC cadet was supposed to be the start of an exciting new chapter, not the moment she’d find herself falling for a mysterious shrew shifter. Can she lower her quills long enough to prove Ariel has finally found a safe place to land?
As secrets unravel and loyalties shift, Ariel and Joline discover that truth can be the sharpest weapon of all. With Dr. Grimm preparing his next move, the survivors of his horrific experiments must band together for one final showdown. Because when cornered, even the smallest shrew and the prickliest porcupine can be forces to be reckoned with.
