Jared
There's a longing...one he can't quell.
Jared's bear is angry, but he has to be a strong leader for those who survived his clan's attack. His duty as the new leader is to protect his people, but it's lonely being chief. He knows he has to take a bride to rebuild, but his bear doesn't want anyone he meets. So instead he focuses on the clan's business front and he hires a private investigator to track down the missing funds.
Adele Banks loved being a Mountie, but one shot ended her career. Determined to solve crime on her own terms she's hired by the mysterious Beare Enterprises to locate embezzled funds. What she wasn't prepared for was how much she's attracted to her new client Jared Stevens.
Jared's bear wakes up the moment he meets Adele, but she's off limits. She's not a bear shifter and he must keep his world secret. Except his inner beast wants her.
Only her.
As Jared fights the urge to mark her as his mate, remnants of what ripped his clan apart haunts him and threatens Adele. To save her life he may have to betray his clan's secret and risk his heart...on a human.
