This is a wonderful read, a woman who has taken a chance on a new life and a Prince in need of a mate
Bess Campos is a woman that has worked hard all of her life and by some miracle has been offered the chance of escaping her mind-numbing, dead-end job if she is prepared to leave her world behind and travel to a completely new planet where she would begin again.
She decides in a matter of moments to take the greatest chance of her life she knows that a chance like this will never again come along for a girl like her. When she lands on the new planet she is amazed at the many differences, se decides the best thing to do is face each day one day at a time and keep on smiling, remember things can only get better.
When she meets the Prince, Charov Mavac she is a little thrown by her body’s reaction to him, she is more than a little taken by him which is strange as she is very timid and quiet where me a related. However, when he informs her that he needs to find a Mate fast, he has a coronation fast approaching and the pressure on him mounts on a daily basis.
What’s Charaov is surprised by the feisty human that soon tells him what’s what where she is concerned, he finds this a refreshing change and finds her figure and face and sense of humour to be a huge turn on.
Bess and Charaov are working together to ensure that the foreign queen is accepted and that she is fair minded and cares about people no matter their age, race or other personal factors. As the pair spend more time together it soon becomes apparent that there is a vendetta that is trying to stop the being together, Charov will not allow this he will do wat ever it takes to keep his beautiful and spirited human by his side.
I thoroughly enjoyed the book and look forward to reading any future publications; keep up all the wonderful writing.

Gerri makes another royal match on Nova Aurora. The king of the Mavac bear shifter clan is dying and he wants to see his son find his mate before he goes. Prince Charov is not ready to become king. He thought he would have many more years of freedom and adventure, but duty calls and he is willing to accept a mate to make his father happy.

Insurance adjuster Bess Campos works long hours and weekends that only seem to benefit her boss. Her love life is definitely suffering and when Gerri makes her pitch, Bess resigns via email and soon finds herself on an alien planet with a hunky bear shifter prince. But all is not rosy as the death of the king throws Charov into a political paperwork nightmare which Bess is perfectly suited to save him from. Unfortunately, someone is trying to orchestrate a coup and Bess is NOT suited for the subterfuge needed to prove her suspected culprit is behind it.

Great romantic story with just enough danger and species misunderstandings to keep it interesting. I was given an advanced copy of this book by the author. My review is voluntary.

I loved this book! Another Gerri Wilder great read. Bess & Charov make a cute couple. Bess the insurance sales and Charov the prince of Marvac territory. Bess is fed up with her boss taking over her life, that she walks away from everything to go to another planet. Charov’s father is king and dieing and wants to see his son married. Bess is his mate but he will have to work at winning her over. As their relationship grows so does the problem in the kingdom. Will their relationship survive or not? Because someone out there doesn’t want to see them together and it’s the last person that Charov would think would go against him. Their relationship grows stronger despite it all. This is a great romance story to read because you don’t want to put it down till you know what happens next. I received this free ARC copy for my review.

Taken for granted one time too many, Bess was in just the right place to accept Gerri Wilder’s fantastical offer… a date with a bear prince on another planet.

This story took us back to Nova Aurora’s Mavac territory with Gerri’s newest perfect match. Bess’s analytical organization hid the heart of someone who craved freedom and adventure. Qualities highly prized by Prince Charov. He needed both sides of her when he assumed the throne and had to manage his broken heart and attempts to prematurely end his reign.

Bess and Charov were a great mix of fun and passion. A wonderful addition to this favorite, long-running series.

Milly has done it again!
This book was THE perfect paranormal romance cleanser. I fell in love with the main characters because we had the perceived "boring" girl who came out of her shell to become a force to be reckoned with! And do not even get me started on our male main character! I loved the multiple POV's as it gave me a chance to really feel like I was getting to know each character on a deeper level. It was overall an amazing book that I would read again!I received a free review copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

Another amazing story from the great PNR author, Milly Taiden. She is without a doubt my favorite and most-read author. Her couples are always perfectly balanced and fun to read about. Bess Campos and Charov Mavac (how does she come up with these names?) are no exception. I absolutely loved every second of their story.

I look forward to seeing what the magical pen maven herself comes up with next. Well done to the author!

Brilliant Series

Asking Fur Trouble (Paranormal Dating Agency Book 88). Y Milly Taiden. Gerri Wilder picks Bess to be the mate of Prince Charov of the Mavac Territory on Nova Aurora. Charov as a bear shifter knew immediately that Bess was his fated mate but Bess being human took a bit longer to realise. Not long after Bess got to Mavac Territory, the King died making Charov the King. This was overwhelming for Bess and there is a plot to overthrow Charov.

Loved it💓🐻

I don't know what it is about the PDA series but for me I love them. Two years ago I never read romance of any kind. I came across this author's work in reading this book series. Needless to say I look forward to each novella release. This did not disappoint.

Another sweet romance with the addition of a lot of tech speak. I'll be honest it bored me a little, but I finally pushed myself to reach the HEA.
