It’s the mating season. Drake Morgan and his brothers Gunner and Rex have been out of hibernation for three weeks. Spring is approaching with the worst of the harsh winter behind them. It’s also time to till their land for crops.🌽🌾
The Morgan brothers are shapeshifters and their bears are calling them to start preparing for the mating season. The brothers have no mates and tend to keep to themselves. They don’t find humans too appealing so they try to stay far away from the city as possible. Drake’s considered travelling to a different clan in hopes of finding female bears but is not too keen on settling elsewhere besides his land.
The Morgan brothers spend most of the year growing and harvesting their crops, then saving the money from their corn for retirement and catering to their mates. Their kind is protective by nature and very caring. They cherish their females, and during hibernation, they make their homes comfortable and safe for their mates. And if their mates fall pregnant, they would go out of their way to ensure their needs are well provided for.
Drake’s clan formed an alliance with Talon Shaw clan after they saved Drake’s bear clan from humans some years back.
Though the town sheriff is a Watcher—a guardian angel who watches over the panthers, and by extension, Drake’s clan—Drake prefers to keep the sheriff at arm’s length, choosing to look after his own.
While running errands in town to get his machine parts for his plow, he runs into a woman named Tessa.
Tessa works for the owner of the hardware store🏬, Tulley where she met Drake. She’s been asked to deliver the remaining tools to the Morgan farm which Drake requested but wasn’t available at the time. 🛠
At the farm, she trips and falls at Drake’s feet while trying to set the deliveries down. Just then Drake tries to break her fall and when he touches her, Drake’s bear claims her. Drake realizes he must mark her so no other male would come around her.
But Drake’s emotions are all over the place because he doesn’t trust humans. His mind and his bear are at odds because she’s one of them. Tessa, on the other hand, isn’t looking for a relationship at the moment—she’s running from her abusive ex-husband and is looking forward to starting a new slate. The Morgan brothers offer to help track her ex down and he enlists the help of the Guardians of the Shaw Pride.
Overall an interesting read. Would recommend to lovers of paranormal romance.
