Puppy + Prey

About the Book

Mods—the common name for genetically modified canine people bred as obedient slaves. Incapable of speech and shackled with shock collars, they exist solely for their human masters. Outraged by their oppression and exploitation, Ken Inumura, a cook at a mod-themed restaurant, rescues the wounded female mod he discovers outside his apartment. Doing what little he can to end slavery, he enters debt to pay for her medical bills, buys the beautiful woman to set her free, and vows to soothe her many scars if she stays. She gratefully does, and the two quickly grow close. Ken dedicates himself to her happiness, cooking for her, buying her cute clothes, and even renaming her—Yumi. However, Ken soon learns her dark, painful secrets when he encounters monsters from her tortured past. If his newfound love will ever survive, he’ll need to help Yumi fight and overcome the demons that still haunt and hunt her.

About the Author

Countless hours of reading manga, watching anime, and playing visual novels inspired me to write Puppy + Prey. I enjoy romantic stories, but there are very few romances for men outside of Japan, so I've written something I would like to read, watch, or play. You could say it's my tribute and contribution to a genre I love. When I'm not writing, I'm playing Super Smash Bros. for Wii U (and seven other games), working my way through yet another anime or manga, and impatiently awaiting the next novel in my favourite series, A Song of Ice and Fire. I've lived in Winnipeg all my life. If everything goes to plan, I should graduate from creative communications at Red River College and begin my career in advertising and marketing.
