Loving Paws by Preston Walker

When political boundaries are crossed by the heart, it makes for a difficult situation. Can you change your values for the love of your life? Or will it all become a battle across the aisle?

He wasn’t ready to see his old crush on television. And he wasn’t ready for what came out of his crush’s mouth.
Lucien is a hard worker and a strong alpha. He’s had eyes for Caleb for a long time, but physical distance has driven the omega out of contention. With the government stewing over werewolf troubles, Lucien finds himself pushing back against shifter registration documentation—and against Caleb.

Caleb ran away from home and joined up with the political circus. Over time, he’s lost himself to the games that happen on the Hill. A self-loathing omega werewolf, Caleb introduces a bill that will force all shifters to register so they can be more easily tracked. He’s used to the contempt from the other side, but not from Lucien. When fate shoves two at-odds werewolves together, will their past fall apart? Or will they put their feelings aside long enough to save each other?
