The Bear’s Accidental Mate by Harmony Raines

Posted March 12, 2026 by Faeshifter in Kindle Unlimited, Paranormal Romance, Sexual Content 18+, Shifter, Shifter Connected, Shifter Series / 0 Comments

Hannah is on her way to her new life when she accidentally takes a wrong turn. Which leads to a blown tire and a chance meeting with Caleb Thornberg.

He appears out of the rain from nowhere. And everything changes.

Caleb is a bear shifter who knows exactly what he wants — and the moment he senses Hannah stranded on the mountain road, he knows she’s his mate.

His. Forever.

Hannah doesn’t belong to anyone. She’s fought too hard for her independence to surrender it to fate… or to the dangerously hot restaurateur whose touch leaves her breathless and whose quiet intensity makes her question the carefully planned future waiting for her.

The more time she spends in Bear Creek — at Thornberg Restaurant, around Caleb’s fiercely loyal family — the harder it becomes to remember why she was so determined to leave.

The chemistry between them is undeniable.  The bond between them is fated.  The choice is hers.  Caleb won’t cage her.

If she decides to walk away, he’ll let her go — even if it breaks him.  Because loving her means choosing her freedom.

Now Hannah must decide…  Return to the safe life she planned, or stay for the bear shifter who chooses her — every single time.

Big Bear Energy by Kala Aster & Milly Taiden

I came to Hollow Oak to disappear, not to accidentally kill the dirt under my hands.

One touch, and the herbs curl up and die like I’m the Grim Reaper in gardening gloves.  The locals whisper “cursed druid” like it’s my middle name.  Fine. Let them stare.

But then there’s him—Corin Vane, the 6’5″ beekeeper bear who looks at me like I’m the only thing worth protecting in this frozen hellscape.

He doesn’t flinch when I brush dirt on his skin.  He leans in.  His honey-and-woodsmoke scent hits me harder than the mate bond ever should, and suddenly I’m the one unraveling.

The land’s rotting. The town wants me gone.  And this giant, quiet bear?

He’s decided I’m staying—wrapped around his claws, marked, claimed, honey-dripped… and apparently his forever.

Who knew salvation came with fur and a death glare for anyone who looks at me wrong?

He broke my heart a decade ago.  Now he’s back, growling something about sabotage, council politics, and mate bonds I didn’t ask for.

I run Hollow Oak’s only shifter tavern. Built it with my claws, my blood, and enough sass to keep rogue lions and nosy fae out of my business.

But apparently, my business is suddenly his.

Dante Deleuve is bigger now. Meaner. More golden than I remember, and twice as good at making my knees forget why I hate him.

He says I’m his.  I say he’s late.

Because this time, I’m not the scared lioness he walked away from.

This time, I’ll defend my town, burn my uncle’s pride to the ground, and maybe—maybe—let the one male I swore off prove he’s worth kneeling for.

If he survives me.

The Bear’s Christmas Wish by Harmony Raines

Posted December 11, 2025 by Faeshifter in Christmas Shifters, Kindle Unlimited, Paranormal Romance, Sexual Content 18+, Shifter, Shifter Connected, Shifter Series / 0 Comments

A cozy, small-town fated mates romance set in Bear Creek.

Christmas has always been Michael North’s favorite season—fresh snow, twinkling lights, and the scent of pine through the valley. But this year, the tree farmer and bear shifter makes a wish on the first falling star of December: to find the one thing missing from his life—a mate to share it all with.

When single mom Sarah Carter turns up at North Peak Pines searching for the perfect Christmas tree, Michael knows the universe has just answered his wish. She’s everything he’s ever wanted—kind, strong, and utterly captivating. But Sarah isn’t looking for forever. Not again. Her focus is on her daughter, Emmy, and building a new life after heartbreak.

For Sarah, Bear Creek was supposed to be a fresh start—not the place she’d lose her heart again. After years of broken promises, trusting someone new feels impossible. Yet when Michael’s quiet strength and gentle warmth begin to thaw the walls she’s built, Sarah starts to wonder if love—real, lasting love—might still be waiting for her beneath the falling snow.

And when she discovers Michael’s biggest secret—that he’s a bear shifter bound to her by fate—she must decide if she’s ready to believe in Christmas magic again.

Because sometimes the greatest gifts aren’t found under the tree… but waiting in the arms of a man who was wishing for you all along.

I’m not supposed to be here.

Hollow Oak isn’t on any map. GPS dies at the gate. And the locals? Yeah. They stare as if I walked into a secret society wearing a press badge and a neon “snitch” sign.  But I’m not leaving.   Not until I get the story.

It starts with whispers: of disappearing hikers, a town frozen in time, and something that howls when the snow falls hardest.

Then I met him.  Alaric Thistlebrush — yes, that’s really his name — is the town’s resident enforcer, built like a war crime and staring at me like I’m his next assignment or his next meal.

Spoiler: it’s both.  I should run. Instead, I move in. And the deeper I dig, the more the town closes ranks… and the more Alaric closes in.  Apparently, I’m not just a threat. I’m his fated mate.

Turns out, when you chase monsters into the woods… one of them might chase you back, propose, and demand a human wedding.

Panthering After You by Kala Aster & Milly Taiden

Posted December 1, 2025 by Faeshifter in Kindle Unlimited, Paranormal Romance, Sexual Content 18+, Shifter, Shifter Connected, Shifter Series, Shifters & Magic / 0 Comments

Ivy Lane came to Hollow Oak with nothing but a guitar, a broken magical contract, and one rule: absolutely no dating shifters.  Especially not six-foot-plus panther shifters with bedroom eyes, pack issues, and a protective streak wide enough to qualify as a forest fire.

Too bad Dorian Vale didn’t get the memo.  He offered backup vocals and cinnamon rolls. Then warded her stage. Then casually offered to risk supernatural litigation just to keep her voice safe.

Which would’ve been fine—if her fae instincts didn’t keep purring whenever he entered the room.  Now the town’s planning a festival, her ex-warlock is back with paperwork from hell, and Dorian keeps looking at her like she’s already his.

If he says the word “mate,” she’s either going to bolt…Or beg him to mark her on the microphone.

She chose him with a song.  He answered with his teeth.

Angry Wolf’s Rejected Mate by Amelia Wilson

When he walks back into my life covered in ash and carrying survivors from that bridge collapse, I instantly know two things. I never stopped loving him, and I never should have let him go.

SARAH
“His eyes are pale green and haunting, seeing parts of me I’ve kept hidden for five years. But there’s something beneath the surface I never understood before. Something wild and dangerous. Something that explains everything about why he left.”

Ethan.  He’s the firefighter who shattered my heart and disappeared without explanation.  The commanding type.  The impossibly intense type.  He’s tall and powerful. He’s devastatingly broken.  And he’s been lying to me from the start.  I think I fell for him all over again the moment he walked into my ER after seventeen hours of chaos.  Something inside him is primal. Deadly.  And that should send me running.  But desire for him is stronger than common sense.  Can I possibly accept what he truly is beneath the surface?  Can I survive the truth when assassins are hunting royal bloodlines?

Ethan Blackwood has spent five years running from his fate. A wolf shifter prince with a target on his back, he rejected his destined mate to keep her safe. But some bonds can’t be broken, and some women refuse to stay protected. Sarah Chen thought she’d moved on from the man who destroyed her. Nothing has prepared her for the truth. He’s not just a man. He’s a wolf shifter, and she’s his fated mate. Being with him paints a target on her back.

Will Sarah’s strength be enough to tame Ethan’s rage, or will secrets and assassins destroy them both before they can claim what was always meant to be?

When a bear shifter saves a wedding photographer from a knife-wielding drunk, it’s just the beginning of their wild romance.

Janie Behrend, a curvy bear shifter, never expected to find love while sketching a nude model, especially when that same hunk of a man turns out to be her best friend’s wedding photographer.

Tobias Strauss captures more than photos – his raw talent behind the camera matches his pure heart, and both draw Janie’s inner bear like honey to the hive. But when his sister faces a health crisis, it’s her protective instincts that draw them closer together on an impromptu midnight road trip.

Between fleeing brides, midnight rescues, and unexpected hotel stays, their sizzling attraction blooms into a love story neither saw coming. In the charming supernatural town of Corvid Valley, where witches run wineries and shifters roam freely, Tobias and Janie must decide if they’re ready to turn their passionate affair into a picture-perfect forever.
