One minute, she’s avoiding men. The next, she’s stuck with one who refuses to let her go.
A grumpy bear shifter. A sassy city girl. And a fated bond neither of them wants—but neither can deny.
Blythe Oaken planned the perfect escape—no stress, no drama, and absolutely no men. Just fresh mountain air, a cozy cabin, and a well-earned break from the chaos of city life.
Then she nearly crashes into a bear the size of a truck.
It doesn’t run. It doesn’t flinch. It just stares her down with eyes that feel almost… human.
The next day, she meets Edric Stone—broody, built like a mountain, and radiating ‘keep the hell away from me’ energy. He watches her just like the bear did.
Coincidence? She wishes.
Edric has spent years avoiding attachments, suppressing his primal side, and keeping his beast in check. But Blythe’s scent ignites something inside him—something raw, possessive, and utterly impossible to ignore.
He’s a grizzly shifter. She’s human. The bond snapping into place between them? It shouldn’t exist.
Blythe doesn’t believe in fate, and she sure as hell isn’t looking for love. But Wildhaven isn’t just a sleepy mountain town. Danger is closing in, and whether she likes it or not—she just became part of it.
Now, there’s only one thing more terrifying than the enemies lurking in the shadows.
A fated mate who refuses to let her go.
