Shifter: Polar Bear, Part One

PART ONE! Cliffhanger! (Serialized story)

HIM: I'm focused on two things; completing my degree & swimming. Until I meet her. But can she accept that I'm a shapeshifter? A polar bear? 

HER: I'm practically a born-again virgin, I'm so focused on my studies. Until I meet him, when he comes to my rescue at a frat party. I feel out of place at the sunny, SoCal university I'm at, a plus-sized, red-headed woman amongst a sea of tall, thin blondes. Is it possible he's attracted to me too?

-----

Ben is Ivy League bound. Focused on his schoolwork and swim-team scholarship, he's ambitious and won't allow anything or anyone, get in the way of his life goals. 

Amber is used to being the awkward best friend. Curvy and fair-headed, fair-skinned - she doesn't fit in with most of the students at the sunny California university she attends. 

When Ben comes to Amber's rescue, he's not prepared for the strong attraction and draw to the sweet, curvy woman. His bear is all about it, but he has to play it right so he can enjoy their time together without his coach getting on his case.
