Shifted — Lily Cahill

Independence Falls, Colorado. 1954. It was the start of a perfect summer--until the fog rolled in and changed everything. Now these heroes will explore their newfound abilities ... and each other. Charlie Huston thought his life was over when a car crash destroyed his leg, ending his baseball career before it even began. That is, until he is trapped in the mysterious fog. When he recovers, he finds that he has an incredible new ability--he can transform into a mountain lion. Shifting into his animal form gives Charlie back all the freedom and strength he thought was lost for good, but he knows his friends and family would be horrified if they realized he could take the form of a predator. Then an emergency forces him to reveal his secret to the last person he would ever trust -- the girl known in town as Briar the Liar. Briar Rose Steele hasn't told the truth in years. She reinvented herself when she moved in with her aunt and uncle after the death of her parents. But ever since the fog, she's been incapable of telling anything but the truth--even when the truth hurts. So when Charlie Huston reveals himself as a shapeshifter, she can't pretend she doesn't know his secret. She also can't pretend that she isn't attracted to him. But Briar has another power--she can hear when people are lying. And in Independence Falls, there are plenty of secrets. As she and Charlie work together to discover the truth about the fog, she'll have to face the truth about the town she loves ... and the truth about how Charlie makes her feel.
