When a grumpy ex-military bear shifter gets trapped in a bathroom with a fearless romance novelist, their unexpected chemistry threatens to burn down all his carefully built walls.

Bernard Jacobs has sworn off love after one too many heartbreaks, content to run his tavern and keep everyone at arm’s length. But when the city council threatens to ban the beach bonfires that helped him heal from PTSD, he’s forced to partner with Giselle Larson, a passionate writer with ever-changing hair colors and zero fear of his massive Kodiak bear form.

Giselle never expected organizing a grassroots campaign would involve falling for the most stubborn, attractive man she’s ever met. As their partnership deepens through strategy sessions and heated city council meetings, the attraction between them becomes impossible to ignore. From a spontaneous victory kiss that changes everything to weekend getaways filled with wine and passion, they must navigate their deepening feelings while fighting for their community’s heart and soul.

But when Bernard’s fear of heartbreak threatens to push Giselle away, can their blazing connection survive long enough for him to realize that the greatest victory isn’t saving the bonfires, but winning her heart forever?

All reviews on Shifter Haven are my own personal reflections on Paranormal Shifter Romance Novels that I have read. These stories are either owned by me in my personal physical book or Kindle edition library, or were given to me as gifts from friends, and occasionally, an author for review. I also borrow books through my Kindle Unlimited plan. And of course, many of my reviews are made possible through the kindness of publishers using NetGalley or Booksprout by allowing me to read advance copies of not yet published books in exchange for an honest review. No money passes hands for any of my reviews. All my opinions, good or bad.
