Blackwood (Perth Shifters, #1)

In a world that is still getting used to shifters, where everyone thinks omegas are second class citizens, nature photographer and omega Braden Payne lets everyone think he's a beta. That way no one gives him a hard time and he doesn't have to live a repeat of his failed relationship. But when his car breaks down in the remote Blackwood forest in Western Australia, without the medication that lets him hide who he is, he's faced with what he fears most: an unmated alpha. Government forest guardian and alpha Coll MacDubhar is tired of illegal loggers, foolish tourists and people who underestimate the wilds of Western Australia. He discovers Braden lost and in need of medical assistance in the forest he protects and knows something's not right. But there's hidden depths to Braden that capture his interest, and no decent alpha would walk away when Braden's unwelcome past comes to visit.
