Kian McHurne has unpaired himself from his mate. He had to do it for reasons he never wants to admit out loud. He put her in the care of the new King of the Bear Clan of Alaska, in hopes that she could have a better life, and survive the war that is coming for her. Their pairing was arranged, and they never quite took to each other. It’s better to cut losses and move on if they’re to be in two separate Clans now. Too bad Fate has other plans. When he’s cast into the new Clan to fight for his life, he sees the mate he left behind in a new light. She isn’t anchored down anymore, and the new-found freedom has done her good. Her inner grizzly is fierce, and she will make Kian pay every chance she gets, but for him? He will secretly cheer her on.
She should be fierce.
She should learn to fight.
She should learn to never back down because he knows a secret the new Clan doesn’t know—and it could be the end of them all.
Grizzly shifter, Eryn Laraway, has been shamed. When a pairing fails in the Bear Clan, it’s an unspeakable thing to happen, and her mate has chosen to do just that. Caught between the urge to curl up in a ball forever, or fight like a wild animal until she feels steady again, Eryn must figure out what to do with her life now. When Kian shows up with big warnings for her new Clan, she begins to appreciate the man he could’ve been…if he wasn’t a big, dominant, brute of a grizzly shifter. He’s just like the others of the Old Clan…right? Their pairing was always distant, but now he insists on teaching her things that are strictly forbidden by the Old Ways. The more she gets to know her growing self, the farther away her old life seems to be, and for the life of her, she can’t decide if Kian will ruin what she’s building, or protect it.

Something terrible has happened to Foster. Ghosts from his Alpha’s past have used him as an unwitting pawn in their game of revenge. He is a werewolf who was forced to dig up something evil that has changed the makeup of who he is. His wolf has been replaced with a titan bear who has little memory of his past, and now Foster and his new shifter animal, Biergon, must go on an adventure to try and figure out where they belong. He can’t go back to Stryker’s Pack, but never in a million years would Foster have guessed he would end up in the wilds of Alaska, right in the middle of a war for power. And the craziest part about it? His new inner bear is the former King, and he has a mate waiting for his return. The bear Clans of Alaska exist in a completely different world than the one he recognizes, and all the rules are different…including the rules regarding mates. The bears in these Clans need to be taught some manners, and as Foster gets to know the fierce and beguiling queen he has been paired with, he begins to think he is exactly the shifter to do it.
A few months ago, Jaydah lost her mate, Biergon. In just a few short days, her mourning period will be finished, and she will be promised to another. But when she sees the stranger with Biergon’s eyes on the banks of her river, she knows something horrible has happened. There are legends of shifters switching animals, but she’s never seen one before, and now? Biergon is different. He is kinder and more protective. His new human side is making her feel like love matches do exist—but if she helps Biergon take his throne back, she will be punished for treason against the bears in her Clan who are fighting to be the new king. Until now, she has had no say in her destiny, but for the first time ever, someone…Foster…is listening to her. And if he can find it in his heart to grant her enough power, together they can change everything for her people.

My name is Ivy Moore.
This morning I woke up a 21-year-old overworked waitress, sister, and not much else.
Six years ago I watched my mother walk away while I was trapped in the mangled car that held my crippled twin sister and the body of my dead father. My hatred for her ran deep into my bones.
It wasn’t until I was attacked by monsters that were attracted to my blood that I began to understand.
With the help of the local arrogant vampire lord, I learned all about my heritage, about vampires and revenants, about what it was like to live again. About learning to love.
While Crispin spent his nights training me to be a deadly killer, someone else was creating an army.
I was a Hunter. And someone wanted me for my blood.

When I turned 40, getting divorced was nowhere on my radar.
Neither was getting pregnant with a cursed bear shifter’s baby.
Have a divorce party, they said. It’ll be fun, they said.
It was until I ended up in handcuffs.
A group of Karens rained on my parade at the winery
And in my drunken haze, I mooned every last one of them—
Along with the responding officer called in to arrest my ass.
Not a good look for a teacher starting off in a new little town.
When he cuffed me, I stumbled into his rock-hard body,
But he softened up once he brought me down to the station,
Taking pity on me and caring for me throughout the night.
The charges were dropped the next morning,
So he gave me a ride home, and I offered him breakfast.
But Landon was hungry for me and jumped right to dessert.
Fast forward to now, when I find out I’m pregnant at 40,
But the fun doesn’t end there.
Apparently, Landon’s part bear.
Oh, and his family? Yeah, they’ve been cursed for generations.
Now my unborn child could turn out to be a feral beast—
Just like Landon’s brother, who’s now on the hunt for me.

Brooke
When I agreed to accompany my boyfriend on a camping trip, I was hoping to salvage our failing relationship—not end up on the ground with my throat torn out. As I closed my eyes, I was certain it was for good.
But the next time I opened them, I came face to face with my boyfriend’s mysterious father, who told me Alex hadn’t survived. But I had, and now I was a werewolf.
Just like him.
Now I’m stuck in his house and under his thumb, forced to obey my new “alpha’s” commands. He’s grieving his son, and he’s determined to find the rogues responsible for the attack. But I’m grieving, too…and chafing at the loss of my old life.
I’m also having a hard time ignoring the attraction that flares whenever the alpha looks at me. If I have any chance of reclaiming my freedom, I’ve got to do it before my traitorous body leads me down a path far more dangerous than the new world I’m living in.
Hugh
They say only the most stubborn humans can survive a werewolf’s bite. Based on what I know of my newest pack member, the sayings are accurate. Brooke turned, which means she’s now my responsibility—and mine to tame.
But I don’t have time for blonds with big blue eyes and sinful curves. I’m determined to find the rogues who killed my son. If I don’t, my whole pack could be in danger.
There’s just one problem. Fate doesn’t care about my plans. Brooke is my one true mate. So it doesn’t matter if she wants to run. My wolf will always urge me to catch her.
Unless, of course, I reject her. And that’s exactly what I intend to do. I’ll train her, keep her safe, and send her on her way. The sooner she’s out of my life, the better.
Getting her out of my head is a whole other story…
