Let me guess: you’ve been hankering for a werewolf story. Specifically, one that’s beach themed and the first in a collection of short stories.

Did I get it right?

Well, we just happen to have a beach-themed werewolf story for you this week.

In “The Beast” by Noah J. Matthews, homeschool teen Melinda meets a cute guy on the beach near her home in Michigan. The problem is, Melinda is a werewolf, thanks to a bad decision she made when she was a small child, and everyone knows werewolves can’t fall in love. Let alone homeschooled werewolves.

Drop your email below and we’ll send “The Beast” right to your inbox!

Why the extra hullabaloo this week, instead of just giving you the story on the page like normal? “The Beast” is the first story in Fantastical Summer, our newest anthology.

Since this story is already part of a published book, we have to control the access to the content a little differently.
