If there is a lesson to be learned in this fantasy novel with not one two shape shifting people it is--Do not assume everyone is bad just because a bunch are.
Eilish lived with her father--they were both healers. When a bunch of raiders came to their village her Dad made her dress as a boy and cut off her hair and told her to call herself Aiden. They were both taken away and sold as slaves to different people. Eilish was sold to a man who owned a boat and was mean as they came--luckily his son-who actually made the purchase was not. Eilish kept up with her male identity.
Leif, the son, was a good man who could not get out from under his father's thumb. He managed to protect Eilish.
After many adventures Leif thought up a way to allow Eilish to escape. By now they were both very much in love--
What happens will astound you. Will love triumph over evil? This is the 2nd in the Shapeshifter series I read by Natasha Brown and if possible I loved it even more then I did the first!
NEW RELEASE...It’s Leif’s eighth summer going viking with his father on their ship the Kraken—and he’s had enough. For as long as Leif can remember, his father has claimed to be a descendant of Ægir, god of the sea, and has exploited their shape changing ability—all this to amass enough gold to gain entrance into the ocean god’s halls. Leif hopes that time’s drawing near so he can free himself from Ragna’s domineering shadow.
On the green hills of Éire, Eilish is content learning traditional folk cures from her father until a Finn-Gall raid disturbs the peace. Desperate to protect Eilish from harm, her father cuts her hair and disguises her in his old clothing before she’s ripped from the only home she’s ever known. Sold as a thrall in Duiblinn, she must hide out as a young man on a ship full of barbarians.
Now Eilish, who fears she’ll become Ægir’s next sacrifice, and Leif, who isn’t prepared to stand up against his father’s powerful wrath, must face the tides of change—no matter how ominous they may seem.

Scars (Time of Myths: Shapeshifter Sagas Book 1)
Along the breathtaking and unforgiving coast of Snæland, Ásta’s ancestral farm is plagued with bad luck. The kinless maiden’s turf walls continue to be found damaged, and there aren’t enough farmhands to maintain the property. Claw marks in the dirt revive old memories of the wolf attack that left her scarred, and she begins to fear the whispers are true—that Fenrir, son of Loki and king of the wolves, has come to claim her and her land.
Torin often leaves his uncle’s farm in the southern hills to track and ensnare valuable gyrfalcons. His secret ability to turn into the birds he trains means his falconry skills are unparalleled, earning him precious silver and gold. If the ghosts of his past didn’t haunt him daily, pushing him to numb his senses with drink, Torin might have married by now—as his uncle often reminds him. He knows the time has finally come to find a wife and settle down.
During the Althing, the gathering of the year, Ásta’s ability to maintain her property comes into question while Torin wonders if a woman in jeopardy of losing her farm is really worth the trouble.
