Brad, The Werebeagle (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798190633085)

Before Brad Black became the most dangerous beagle on Earth... he was just a man trying to survive another embarrassing day.

He wakes up naked in a rented bounce house after his daughter's birthday party, smelling like whiskey, skunk, and regret. His wife is furious. His kids are mortified. His brother-in-law is laughing so hard he can barely breathe. If humiliation were an Olympic sport, Brad would already have a gold medal.

Unfortunately for Brad, that's only the second-worst thing that's ever happened to him.

The worst happened when he was sixteen years old in the forests of the Pacific Northwest. During what should have been a simple trip to visit his grandmother, his body did the impossible-it transformed into a beagle.

Not a wolf. Not a bear. Not a majestic predator worthy of ancient legends.A thirty-pound, floppy-eared, squirrel-chasing beagle.

For years Brad has hidden his secret, convinced he's the punchline to some cosmic joke. But when strange blackbirds begin following him, impossible creatures start appearing, and an ancient predator emerges from the shadows after hunting Brad's family for more than twenty years, hiding is no longer an option. Because Brad isn't the real target. His family is.

As long as Brad can remember, he believed his parents died under mysterious circumstances when he was a child. The truth is far more terrifying. They have spent two decades crossing continents, changing identities, and living in hiding from Marchosias-a legendary half-vampire, half-werewolf whose obsession with Brad's mother has consumed centuries. He doesn't simply want revenge. He believes she belongs to him. Standing between him and that obsession is Brad's completely human father, a man who has survived not through supernatural powers, but by refusing to surrender the woman he loves. Now the hunt is over.
Brad is pulled into a hidden world where ancient vampire councils rule from forgotten cities, entire families can become any creature they imagine, telepaths coordinate like living hive minds, and elite supernatural strike teams protect secrets that could change humanity forever.

Alongside his fiercely loyal wife Darlene, his eccentric grandmother, his mischievous Uncle Billy, the incredible Merlotte family of shapeshifters, and Mateo León's disciplined supernatural security network, Brad must do the one thing he has spent his entire life avoiding.

Stop running.

What follows is a globe-spanning adventure through the forests of Washington, the streets of Europe, and the ancient halls of Volterra before culminating in an unforgettable battle where nearly sixty supernatural warriors unite against one unstoppable monster. But this isn't just a story about monsters and magic.It's about family. It's about forgiveness. It's about fathers who never stopped trying to come home, mothers who refused to surrender hope, grandparents who carried impossible burdens, and a husband and wife who discover that love is strongest when it is chosen every single day.

Filled with laugh-out-loud humor, heartfelt family moments, pulse-pounding action, supernatural mystery, and unforgettable characters, Brad, The Werebeagle is a fresh, wildly original twist on paranormal fantasy that blends the heart of a family saga with the scale of an epic supernatural thriller. At its core, this is a story about identity. Brad spends years believing the worst thing about himself is what makes him different. Instead, he discovers that embracing who he truly is is what gives him the strength to protect everyone he loves.Whether you're a fan of supernatural adventures, action-packed fantasy, heartfelt humor, or stories where ordinary people rise to extraordinary moments, Brad, The Werebeagle delivers a thrilling, emotional journey unlike anything you've read before.

Because sometimes the world's greatest hero doesn't howl at the moon.

Sometimes...he bays at it.
