Did Not Finish
August 11, 2018Experienced hero vs virgin heroine.
Hero is the shifter who KNOWS and EXPECTS a fated mated, yet he is not the virgin but the mere mortal heroine is!????
You’re kidding me, right?
I feel cheated!

Review
I really enjoyed Wyatt and his playfulness. There were a few times where Jinger's character was hard to connect with. I actually was going to give this three stars ( I'm not a big fan of the hospital thing in this book as well as the first. It's almost like a complete repeat.) but I did find myself ready enjoying the end. I like here little mishap words.
Now I just hope the next book doesn't follow same pattern. Mate shows up , mate gets hurt, in a coma, mate sees man not leaving her side in hospital. Man making her live with him while she recovers, shows animal, mom steps in to explain.... Mated. So far the first two books followed this exact pattern. I'm hoping the next one doesn't.

I was so looking forward to Wyatt’s story. It didn’t disappoint at all.
I love the character development. I love the quirks that the author includes for the characters. Wyatt’s speech was so good. So romantic. Well written.
I am really enjoying this series.

3.5 stars. Similar in a lot of ways to Bearly Cooking: Pacific Northwest Werebears: but I still enjoyed the story.

The first 50% of this book Wyatt straddled the is he or isn't he a stalker line and one of those guys who doesn't understand no. I understand he was courting Jinger but there was just something creepy about some of his actions. After the 50% mark things started to get better and the story started to evolve and the relationship got a little bit more iron out.
Not my favorite books so far of this series but I still it. Which was kind of disappointing because I really liked why it's personality and his playfulness.

The Plot Thickens
I loved this one just as much as I've loved the others. Oh Jinger and her sassy mouth and Wyatt with his wooing and donuts. All of it was great. Definitely looking forward to seeing how this mystery wraps up!

When you read it after the first book, it's just too repetitive.
And the fact that whole clan of bears can't find or track a smelly dude spying on them and hanging around their homes and work is just plain stupid.

Sassy, funny sweet romance. When fate brings Wyatt his mate, danger also arrives. Someone is trying to hurt Wyatt's family and their business.
No cliffhanger and Hea.

Bear In Mind is Wyatt and Jinger’s story, the second in the Pacific Northwest Werebears series. Wyatt sure gave Cage a hard time when he found his mate in Sophie – now it’s time for big brother to have a good chuckle.
Jinger is a government worker, one who is following up on an anonymous complaint about the family logging operations. The moment Jinger steps out of her car, Wyatt is definitely interested but there’s no spark just a sexy, curvy lady. And Wyatt does what he does best, flirt and charm the lady while taking her to the location she needs to inspect. It’s not until later, over lunch served at Sophie’s mess hall that Wyatt and Jinger lock eyes – and everything in Wyatt’s life falls into place. His mate.
Jinger is a woman of conflict. She’s attracted to Wyatt, is she ever. But her vision of herself, her body is far different than his. Where Wyatt sees curves and lusciousness, Jinger sees belly rolls and a stretched out uniform. She cannot believe that he possibly sees her as desirable or loveable. To be honest, this is a theme throughout the story of Jinger’s insecurity about her body. I had hoped that with Wyatt’s love she would become more secure in her own skin – perhaps in time.
An accident that wasn’t really an accident sends Jinger into the hospital. And we begin to see people from other shifter clans enter the story, as the mystery of the tampering and sabotage done at the logging company continues.
Bear In Mind is a fast paced, sexy love story. And one that is completely charming and fun to read. These guys and their bers are such fun to watch as they deal with mates and their bear’s reactions to the chosen woman. This is an enjoyable series and if you love paranormal romance, especially shifters then you will love the Pacific Northwest Werebears.

A shorter story than the first one, second in the series had as many gaps and questions left unsolved as the first one.
The romance advanced so fast and the lack of dialog in between had me wanting for more.
Whaytt and Jinger met and fell for each other so fast and then everything slowed down to another hospital scene that reminded me so much of the first book.
I think that the whole: I am a fat girl so you shouldn't be able to lift me had me rolling eyes together with the whole self esteem issues. Why, of why all chubby women have image issues when they like food I will never know? Why most of the time a gorgeous shifter/ man must fall for the chubby girl.
A hunk of a guy and a chubby girl have no reasons not to work when fate is involved but for me is getting old. Some variety would be nice, after all, females are molded in all shapes and sizes.
I feel sad when an author has a great story to tell, can write but gets stuck in stereotypes and corny lines.

A good continuation of this series
In this book we meet Jinger and Wyatt and have the continuation of the Rochon family and their sabotage troubles carrying on in this book.
Wyatt meets his mate, Jinger who works for the Department of Natural Resources, when she turns up after a complaint is made about the Rochon logging practises.
Once again it is mates at first sight for Wyatt, Jinger is a human with no knowledge of shifters and needs to be wooed but unfortunately she is caught up in the sabotage problems and ends up in a coma.
A good read that keeps evolving this series.

This was done so much better than book 1. Things were evened out nicely not too fast and not too slow. Ok...I do have 1 negative thing to say. Her reluctance got old towards the end. It kind kept being repeated by her and I was like oh come on lady! LOL. Anyways, loved Wyatt and of course I liked him a lot in book 1. Love the banter between the brothers. I'm hoping to read about Connor fairly soon.

Bear Shifter "Standalone" book in series!
Kindle unlimited read. I fell in love with the three brothers that this series has to offer. They come from a well-established shifter family. This story was a unique and cute one. She works for the people that insure cutters replace trees and don't start fires. She's timid and shy. Man does Wyatt have his hands full!! Almost as good as the first story. I'll give it a solid 4 1/4 - 4 1/2 stars!

Aside from not being sure how the heroine's name is pronounced, I enjoyed this book. It's a light, fluffy, fun paranormal read with interesting, realistic (aside from the werebear thing) characters. It could use a good polishing in terms of punctuation and sentence structure. Some of the character dialogue also felt a bit stilted, but it's nothing that pulls you out of the story in terms of overall readability. All in all, an enjoyable continuation of the series.

A can't miss series!!!!
I can't decide if I love this book more than the first. They are both amazing and author Moxie North did an excellent job with this follow up book. These brothers will certain worm a place into you heart as they did to me. Wyatt and Cage's story are so fun to read and I can't wait for Connor's!

Loved it
Wyatt and Jinger's story was really good. It tugged at your heart strings. Wyatt never thought he would find his fated mate so soon after his brother Cage found his, let alone a human. The plot thickens when there is evil doing around. I love the elements of intrigue. Now I have to read book 3.

Fantastic
I absolutely loved this story. My favorite part was Wyatt pacing, trying to explain something to Jinger, but was mostly arguing with himself and confusing her. That was hilarious. I am looking forward to reading Connor's story.
