Publisher Description
He thought he could choose his mate. Fate had other ideas.
When James Borealis’s mating fever hits, the youngest of the polar bear brothers has one plan—claim his best friend before the heat drives him wild. Kaylee’s everything he wants: loyal, gorgeous, and off-limits.
But friendship doesn’t stand a chance against a bear’s instincts.
Kaylee knows all about polar bear mating fever—and she’s not about to become James’s convenient cure. She’s a quiet bobcat shifter with scars and secrets of her own, while he’s the charming face of Borealis Gems, living life in the spotlight. They don’t make sense. They never did.
Until one touch breaks every rule between them.
Now passion’s burning hotter than the Arctic sun, and the only thing more dangerous than surrendering… is pretending they were ever just friends.
Fate’s called his bluff—and this time, love’s playing for keeps.

The Bear’s Chosen Mate
Humor and sex are the strengths of this book and the female protagonists are interesting. However, there are several typos throughout, and I dislike perpetuating the idea that grandparents get a say in their grandchildrens’ choice to partner, have kids, or otherwise and wish he didn’t get to be smug in the end.
I didn’t really get James’ mom scolding him for behaving like an elephant. They’re most commonly known for their gentleness and intellect, and in many cultures symbolize strength and wisdom.
There’s also a couple moments of questionable consent when Kaylee clearly tells James he needs to stop, but he grinds into her anyway.
It’s also unclear if all humans know about shifters or just Amber, which would drastically change the feel of James’ auditorium speech about his “mate” and all the careless shifting and whatnot. In general a little more world building would go a long way.
I was actually disappointed Kaylee took the wind out of James’ character development by instantly reversing his decision to resign.
Very nice
Much more than expected and very enjoyable.
