The Adventures of a Tiny Tree, Interspersed with Whimsical Anecdotes from a Discarded Pair of Trousers by Kass O'Shire

For the first time, Dahlia’s life is entirely her own. With her newfound freedom, this dryad is determined to put down roots, figure out who she is, and what she likes to do. First on her list, what is it like to experience pleasure? When she reconnects with the handsome shark shifter who rescued her at the local tavern, she decides it’s time to find out. He’s back to sea in the morning, so what could possibly go wrong?

No one would ever call shark shifter Jokith responsible. After his impulsive choices avalanche into a mess that might upend his entire life, he heads to the tavern to drown his sorrows. There, he runs into the stunning dryad he rescued from the Pathian Empire. She’s lush, fierce, and interested in exploring her freedom. Who is he to say no?

But "just one night" turns into "now we live together" when Dahlia inherits an orchard and Jokith is reassigned to help her. Overnight, they’ve gone from single to parenting the little boy Jokith accidentally adopted. Neither of them has any idea how to be a parent, and to make matters more complicated, Dahlia is starting to feel sick…
