Wanting to hide a secret, Sera Czedar,  a twenty-three-year-old  panther shifter ran away from home after her mating ceremony.  Five years later, she has made a life for herself as a part owner of a book store in Varselles.  She is also a feared fighter in the rings; a much different person then the girl who left her home all those years ago.Beta, Levian Grayson,  has been grieving the loss of his mate, Sera.  After five years, he found a lead to her whereabouts.  She has been spotted in Versalles, a town  where the roughest shifter outcast live.  He sets out for Versalles with plans to bring her home, whether she wants to or not.I enjoyed Homecoming.  It is a quick book to read at 121 eBook pages.  The Steampunk element made it different than most shifter novels.  It also has some interesting surprises.Cecilia Robert did a great job in the character development.  She did an admirable job showing how the characters changed as a result of Sera's abandoning her clan.Homecoming formed an intriguing setting for the Cloaked Devices series.  I look forward to Rise Book One in the series to be released in 2014.Complimentary copy provided in exchange for an honest review.
