Hawksong: The Kiesha'ra

Danica Shardae, an avian shapeshifter and heir to her people's throne, has known only war with the serpiente. To end the generations-long conflict, she must accept Zane Cobriana, the fearsome leader of her enemies, as her pair bond. Their union is meant to bring peace, but trust is a fragile thing, and it may be more than Danica can offer, even for the sake of her people.
