Denied: A Novel of the Sazi (Luna Lake)

"Anica Petrovic used to be human, until she was kidnapped and turned into a shapeshifter with the ability to become a bear. Political strife in Serbia led Anica, her father, and her brother to settle in the Pacific Northwest, in a shifter community where all are welcome. The town is rocked by a series of brutal murders which appear to have been committed by a bear. Anica and her family are all bears, but she knows they are all innocent. Not so innocent is newcomer bear shifter Tristan. Anica's sensitive nose tells her he's hiding something, but she can't believe he's a killer. She's wrong. Tristan has killed--though he's innocent of the murders in Luna Lake. He's tracked an ancient evil to Anica's home town, and he'll do whatever is necessary to find that evil and destroy it."--Amazon.com.
