Gerri Wilder's perfect one mouth-wateringly hot bear shifter security expert who makes Meara want to paint his muscles all day long!

When the fierce Lopez clan threatens his mate-to-be, this alpha bear is ready to show everyone why you don't mess with what's his.
Between steamy time together and defending her artistic retreat from sabotage, Meara's falling hard for her growly bear. Can a protective shifter and a feisty artist create their own masterpiece of love? And just how many easels will get knocked over before these two admit they're perfect for each other?

Artist Meara Adams has never had much time for the dating scene, she is too busy with her gallery and spending spare time with her grandmother. Inheriting a place in the country comes with an unexpected problem - someone wants her gone. Her dream of starting an artist retreat runs into trouble when a shifter family claims the land is theirs, and they aren't afraid to carry out their threats if she won't leave. Fortunately, she recently met a very hot and handsome bear shifter who just happens to run a security company. Alpha Artek Riggs is all about his bear sleuth and his company until he meets Meara at a gala. When she asks for his help, his bear shoves him right into the fray.
Gerri does it again when she manages to get these two together. I loved Meara's assistant, Frency. He/she is a hoot. I was given an advanced copy of this book by the author. My review is voluntary.

Such a fantastic and entertaining story. Meara and Artek are a grand addition to the PDA family. I love reading these because of the romance and HEAs, but also because I get snippets of Gerri. She is the one character that is seen throughout the series and I absolutely adore her feisty, take-no-bull attitude. She rarely gives what is wanted, but always what is needed. She is a true literary treasure. I had a blst reading another PDA book and look forward to reading more.
Well done to the author!

Meara &Artek
She's an Artist, and he's a Security specialist. With the threats she's getting, he is perfect, and the parents desire them to mate. Meeting they belong together whether admitting it or not. When danger becomes a part of the situation, his feelings strengthen. He will protect the woman who draws him.
As always, the author makes the shifter story a part of the real world. She has a real talent for doing so. It is one of the main reasons I've become addicted to her stories and series. Enjoy!

Awesome
Well, it might be a bit TMI, but I have to say this is the first book that's had me crying while brushing my teeth, lol.
The twists are heart-wrenching, and the turns are madening. But I'm absolutely going to recommend it to my friends and family. This is the truest review I've ever given and has nothing to do with the fact that I did receive this book as an ARC, but this is my honest review.

UGHHHH!!! Bear shifters have always been a favorite. Now add an art gallery and over protectiveness and you have a perfect recipe for a sweet and steamy book that I’m guaranteed to be able to put down. That’s exactly what happened here. At this point milly’s books are always instant downloads and reads. I love them so so much. There has never been one that didn’t make me giggle and kick my feet.

Frenchy! Frenchy! Frenchy!!
I truly enjoyed Paw Inspiring, the story, danger, spicy and all. But I must say that Frenchy’s character was refreshing and fun. I was laughing so hard due to Frenchy’s dramatic humor and fashionista flair. I think that every girl/woman, should have a Frenchy friend in their lives 😂👍💕

This story was the perfect mix of romance and intrigue… Maira inherited the perfect piece of land to create an artist’s retreat. She’s assisted by the adorably hilarious Frenchy, who adds a hilarious dose of color to the story. Her land is under the protection of Artek’s sleuth. And she needs all of his overprotective instincts as she quickly comes under repeated attack as another clan seeks to take over her land.
This was a great story, as all the Paranormal Dating Agency books are. I love Gerri Wilder and the couples she brings together.
