Master Sergeant Polar Bear

Judith isn't the type of girl who settles down.

Ryan is too damaged to be boyfriend material.

But when they meet, he realizes instantly that they're mates. He might be a polar bear shifter, and she might be entirely human, but that doesn't change the way he feels. Unfortunately, Judith is really good at pushing away and Ryan doesn't want to get hurt again. Will he be able to convince her that she's his mate? Will he be able to keep his heart intact?
