*****  

     Kenzie Adair Macleod, youngest child of six, was from a clan who had lived on the Isle of Skye in Scotland for centuries, until the hunters invaded their lands and started randomly killing all the wolves in the area. The only problem was that the Macleods were Changelings, not wolves. But the humans didn't know that, nor did they care.  When they reached Kenzie's home, her mother told her to run as fast as she could and hide until she couldn’t hear or smell the humans anymore.  She did run until she fell into a deep pit with stakes in it. Luckily, her small body saved her; she had fallen between the stakes, but right next to another wolf that wasn’t so lucky. It wasn’t until the next day that her family found and saved her, but due to the trauma stayed a wolf cub for a while, and then didn’t speak for months afterwards. Now she was grown and had twin doctorates in anthropology and archaeology and was looking in the wilds of Alaska for the one thing that she thought would help her stop reliving her nightmare of being persecuted by humans. Then two things happened that irrevocably changed her life--she met Josh Talarkoteen and found a small wolf cub Changeling who had been so terrified she wouldn’t change.
     Josh Talarkoteen, a Canadian Native American of the Tahltan clan and Afghanistan war vet helicopter pilot, now worked the wilds of Alaska for the Fish and Game Department. He was perfect for the job because of his affinity to wild animals, especially eagles and wolves. Of course, the one thing that no one was aware of was his knowledge and ability to sense Changelings. When he blew a tire on a back road, the most beautiful Changeling he had ever seen stopped and picked him up. He immediately felt an affinity with Kenzie, and when their hands touched and the electric tingle shot up both their arms, he knew Kenzie felt it, too. But there was something else there--a wall, a hesitancy to get close. Could it be because he was human? 
     Dani Harper has done an outstanding job in Changeling Dawn. She melds two species, two cultures, and three damaged people into a cohesive, loving unit that will make you want to cry by the end of the book. The only real paranormal aspects are the Changelings and Birkie's mysterious abilities, but the rest of the book is pure adrenaline adventure and lots of understanding and tender, loving care. A romance that you will want to read again and again whenever you need that warm, fuzzy feeling.
