Bear Desire

Aubrey Whitaker inherits her uncle's beloved bed-and-breakfast, Maycaven Landing, with a deadline, a decision, and enemies already at the door. Enter Garrison Highfield—the sexy, gruff neighbor and rancher her uncle trusted to keep the lights on. He's all quiet hands and steadiness—the kind of protector who fixes boilers at dawn and watches the tree line at night.

What Aubrey doesn't know: Garrison is a bear shifter with a past he'd rather bury, and somewhere beyond the tree line, whispers of a strange serum ripple through the shifter world. As chemistry sparks into something impossible to ignore, a ruthless developer circles and danger prowls the woods.

To keep Maycaven—and each other—Aubrey and Garrison must choose daylight over fear, partnership over pride, and a love that feels less like chance and more like fate.
