First Comes Love Complete Collection: An illustrated anthology - Paperback
by Ellen Million (Illustrator), Elva Birch (Author)
Navigating on-line dating is hard enough for a single mom and first shift baker, but Chloe has a whole new set of problems when Ryan, her little boy, suddenly changes into a bossy baby penguin and polar bear shifter Clay comes charging to her rescue.
A swoony (and slightly sizzling!) trilogy set in the world of Instinct, this anthology collects the three previously published short stories, First Shift, First Day, and First Date, with two bonus stories from Ryan's point of view, First Friend and First Christmas-plus eight illustrations! Full of hold-your-side humor and big heart, discover a world of enchantment and love with Chloe and a day care for shifters! * * * Chloe crouched, groping blindly for her phone, and Ryan-or what had been Ryan-squirreled out of his clothing and rolled from her arms, landing on the floor with a determined plop that turned into a comical waddle towards the bathroom, making happy little squeaks with every step.Chloe found her phone without once looking at it and scrambled after the fuzzy little bird that had been her son. "Ryan?" she said plaintively. "Honey?"
Ryan got to the edge of the bathtub and flapped his stubby little wings as he tried to hop up into it. "Meep! Beep!"
A penguin, Chloe realized in shock. Ryan was a baby penguin.
He looked like a stuffed animal, with dense downy feathers all over his gray body. His face already showed distinct markings, with a black hood over round white eye patches. His dark, beady little eyes blinked rapidly.
Chloe still clutched her phone and Ryan's abandoned clothes.
