A Matter of Faces by Elizabeth Jewell

When Piper sees Billy in a bar, she can't believe it. Here is the man she had once loved. She goes home with him, for reasons she herself doesn't entirely understand. And he's exactly as she remembers him—touch, taste and scent. But Billy died two years ago...

Trey, a shapeshifter who can assume any human form, has been studying Piper for a year to learn who would ease her heart. Now Piper knows his secret and he is obligated to protect her in the way his race has done since their time began. In a sense, she "owns" him.

But the truth brings more than a real-life erotic fantasy into Piper's life. It also brings danger in the form of another, power-hungry shape shifter who wants her and Trey dead.
