Katie knows just what she wants: a hot, normal guy like Jake. She’s in for a surprise…
Copper-haired, curvy Katie grew up watching her mother chase one alpha bear after another, and swore that would never be her. She wants nothing to do with werebears, especially pushy, conceited alphas. When she meets sexy street musician Jake, the heat between them is instant and undeniable. He seems too good to be true, and everything she ever wanted.
Jake can’t believe his good luck when he sees Katie. She’s everything he’s ever dreamed of in a mate, and his instincts says she’s destined to be his. Jake’s a rare thing: a werebear living in the big city. He’s on the run from his past, refusing to be the alpha his family expects.
It’s destiny versus reality when Jake has to decide how he and his bear can overcome Katie’s reluctance and convince her that he’s the right bear for her, and Katie has to decide whether to let her past rule her future.
This is a sizzling hot, standalone BBW bear shifter romance. No cliffhangers!
Whew! What a hot and steamy read! Right from the beginning, I could feel the sexual tension between Katie and Jake. Nora Eli did a phenomenal job of writing paranormal romance and creating characters with real depth. Immediately I liked Katie who is independent and doesn't want to be railroaded into a life that she doesn't want by her mother. Then when Jake is introduced, I was instantly infatuated. He was sexy, strong and yet still so romantic! I loved it when Jake met Katie and thought "It was like someone took a peek at all his favorite fantasies and turned them into one girl". Who wouldn't be swept off their feet? I highly recommend to anyone who likes romance with a paranormal twist.
Really enjoyed this one. A great start. Keep up the wonderful writing. I can't wait to read the next one. Well written and enjoyable to read. If you enjoy reading shapeshifter and romance then you will love this short story
Great book. Quick read and a nice story of finding love and of coming home. Also about having friends who are willing to help you through the rough times.
The Right Bear’s Arms is a lighthearted, quick, very sexy read. I had fun with this title. I enjoy when authors add to the lore of a genre with their own takes on some things, and Nora Eli added a slight twist that immediately caught my attention.
Katie’s upbringing has shown her that she wants absolutely nothing to do with an alpha. Nothing, at all. She is instantly attracted to a customer at the diner where she works, and the feeling seems to be returned. Almost too good to be true, right? When Katie discovers that Jake is exactly what she’s running from in life, she halts their romance cold. Now Jake has to convince her that not all alphas are equal, but to do that he has to find her again.
I adored Katie’s grandmother. In a loving but no nonsense way she sets her granddaughter straight on many things, including exactly what a mate is and should be. The Right Bear’s Arms is certainly steamy, and an interesting love story with a twist. If you enjoy hot and fast romance, likable characters and a touch more information added to the shifter genre, then you’d have fun with this story. I know I did.
I read this title through my Kindle Unlimited subscription.
In this book we meet Katie and Jake. Katie's views on shifter men is a little off but she doesn't realize this because this is all she has been taught. Katie has plans for her future and if she lets a man into her life she will never accomplish those plans in her option. The problem is when one day during her shift as a waitress she meets Jake and his friend Rafe. Rafe is funny in an older brother picking on you kind of way but Jake makes her stand up and take notice.
Jake is a man who never wanted to be alpha and wouldn't be if it wasn't for the fact that he lost his older brother in an accident. To figure out what he really wants to do next he runs away and joins Rafe as street performers just trying to make enough to get by. When Jake smells Katie though he knows he has to get closer to her and his bear oh that is trying to beat his way out of Jake to get to her. Something has Katie on the spooked side and he will do anything to protect her.
This is a great story about finding love and being willing to open yourself up for it. This is also a great story about friendship and loyalty. I was impressed with how even though Rafe and Jake are different shifters their friendship is in no way affected by this. Jake is there and wants to be there in the future for his friend. I thought this book was amazing I couldn't put it down once I started it. I would recommend this to anyone and everyone.
What a fun, sexy read! I loved that Katie was feisty and independent, but that it didn't get in the way of her recognizing a good thing when she found one (eventually). Jake was a loveable hero. I do love to see my heroes pine a little bit. ;) Now I'm dying to know what the deal is with his friend Rafe the werewolf.
Not the best book I have ever read. There were A LOT of misplaced words, words left out of sentences and transposed words. Where was the editor and proofreaders? The story was short and sweet, not much character development or storyline. Not impressed.
