eBook Description: Sequel to Amber Allure's Best Seller Under A Confederate Moon... Brance Brenneman is used to harsh conditions--the eldest son of a stern Amish preacher, Brance was bit by a werecat as a young boy, and managed to keep his secret from his family until he was old enough to leave them and their religion behind. Years later, when the nation is divided by the American Civil War, Brance finds himself enlisted in the Union army. By sheer chance, he meets Caleb Chilson, a Confederate soldier who bears his same shapeshifting burden. Together they leave the war behind to forge a new life in the wilderness of Pennsylvania. But trappers near their camp are hunting bobcats, and they don't much care if Brance and Caleb are only in the fur part of the time. Brance finds his peaceful existence shattered, and he has to fight to defend the life--and the bobcat, the man--he's come to love. Genres: Gay / Fantasy / Shapeshifter / Historical / Civil War (American) / Action / Adventure / Series

"4 Cups! ... picks up where Under A Confederate Moon leaves off. It adds a bit of background on Brance that you did not see in the first book. Again, this is a great story of people being different and able to find someone just like them. Caleb and Brance still make a great couple balancing...the differences in each of them. If you have read the first book, you will enjoy this one as well."--Matilda, Coffee Time Romance

"4 Angels! ... Ms. Snyder has continued the lives of Caleb and Brance from her earlier story, Under A Confederate Moon. It was very interesting to see how people from an earlier age reacted to not only shape shifters but also homosexuality ... It was fascinating to find out about Brance's childhood and how it shaped his reactions to Caleb, who is open and at times childish in how he looks at life. Together Caleb and Brance seem to fill the empty spaces is each others' lives and create a love that is strong enough to overcome whatever obstacles ... in their way. I hope that there will be more stories about the lives of these two very strong-willed and vibrant men."--Teresa, Fallen Angel Reviews

Clutching his abdomen, Brance fell, breathless, to the ground. His skin began to burn, as if flames lapped his body--pain slashed through him, radiating from his belly up through his chest, shooting down both legs, crippling his arms. In the cataclysm of change, his joints popped as his bones crunched down, reshaping themselves into a familiar feline form. Burnished hair erupted over the back of his hands, along his legs. As he writhed on the ground, his fingers fumbled to unbutton his shirt. His breath came hoarse and close, ragged to his own ears. Over the sound he heard the brook muttering to itself and, beyond that, Caleb's quiet sobs.

With nerveless fingers, Brance managed to extract himself from the shirt. His hands changed as he struggled to undress--his nails lengthening, curving, sharpening, his fingers retreating into padded paws. The last vestiges of humanity fell away as he kicked off his underpants--the legs that slipped from the shorts drew up to Brance's body, feet dissolving into paws, ankles straightening, knees bending back as his thighs reformed into haunches.

Around him, the night came alive with sights and smells and sounds the human he had been could not appreciate. Brance lay on his side, panting, as he allowed himself to remember the feel of this body, its weight and power, the strength now flowing through his veins. The thrashing in Caleb's thicket had stopped, as well. The stench of man filled the clearing but Brance recognized it as his own scent, mingled so heavily with his lover's that the two became one.

A sudden roar split the night. It flashed like lightning through Brance, igniting his blood. As he rolled into a sitting position, the trees nearby shook--he watched a bobcat trot from the thicket, amber eyes trained on Brance's face. Before he could react, the cat came right for him without hesitation. Its cold nose wrinkled as it sniffed over Brance's forehead--he closed his eyes, waiting.

Then a choppy purr filled the night air, and the bobcat butted its head against Brance's. ::What about now?:: the other cat mused. It turned, raising its short tail into the air to expose its anus. A heady scent blossomed between them, a randy, wild smell that eclipsed all others and made Brance's claws knead the soft dirt beneath him, eager. Caleb's voice spoke into Brance's feline brain. ::Will you fuck me now?::

Brance's answer was a flashing cry as he rose to his feet, barbed penis already extended in anticipation.
