Loved by the Bear

I came to the tropics for a break. A little sun, a lot of ocean, and absolutely no complications.

Instead? My best friend's dead, a secret drive full of dangerous intel has landed in my lap, and now someone wants me permanently silenced. My only hope of staying alive? Going on the run with William Smith grumpy bear shifter, elite SAS operative… and the man who once made it crystal clear I wasn't his type.

Now we're posing as newlyweds at a honeymoon resort while we hunt down a killer and decrypt the files that got my friend murdered. The problem? Every time William looks at me like I belong to him, it gets a lot harder to remember this is all an act.

I'm a panda shifter with a brain wired for planning, not combat. He's a walking fortress with claws, secrets, and a body built for war. We're complete opposites.

But when it comes to William, my heart and my inner animal aren't playing pretend.

And if we don't figure out what's on this drive fast, it won't just be the mission that gets wrecked. It'll be me.
