Firebear Brides #4

Bear the Fire

Rate this book
The fire's never been this hot! But can they both take it?

Kali Jameson has a past exactly like her present. Nothing's changed since... Since him. The werebear who changed everything. She goes on with her life - singing, working at a little coffee shop, getting ragged on by unhappy customers. Nothing new. So when a blast from the past hits her up and reminds her that she has a debt to pay, Kali's not sure whether to be excited or terrified. If it takes her back to him, maybe a bit of both?

Rhodes Hamilton is on fire. His life is a maddening array of bad choices and he's only glad to make more. Coaxed by his brothers, he agrees to take one trip back to Shifter Grove, but that's it. He doesn't need a reminder of the man he could have been, and Shifter Grove is full of that. No way in hell is he going to stay! But few things could knock this firebear off his balance, but Kali is definitely one of them... so maybe staying could be an option?

With fire a constant threat and their joint dark past hanging over them, can Kali and Rhodes have a chance at happiness again? Or are they beyond saving this time?

Firebear Brides is a mail-order brides series with plenty of hot werebear action set in Shifter Grove. Each book can be read as a stand/alone with a guaranteed HEA/HFN. Expect plenty of sizzle. You might even need to bring your own hose.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. This is the last story about the Hamilton brothers – Rhodes. He gets his HEA with Kali. They have a history and a very deep backstory to work thru before they can be together. These brothers, and their wives to be, find out how to stop the wildfires that are hitting Shifter Groves and surrounding areas. And the end of this book will make you smile, giggle, and laugh out loud at these brothers but it is a wild ride to get there. I love these folks and hope we get to visit with them in a future book.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Book 4 of Firebear Brides by Anya Nowlan
Rhodes is the youngest and only single brother left. Abigail somehow found him and got him back to the homestead.
Kali and Rhodes have a rocky relationship but both still love each other.
Really enjoyed every book in this series and this one had a perfect ending for all brothers.

My first time reading a shifter romance. This short offering has a curvy biracial heroine and a white male hero that is a firefighting werewolf bear (yeah, I know). The shifting aspect was not off-putting like I originally imagined. Take out the beast inside and it's basically a paint by numbers brooding male needs meets "sassy" female erotic romance. Overall, Not bad. Not overly wow. Very minor editing snafus (very minor). Overall a smooth read. For those that haven't ventured into shifting, this series seems like a good place to start. Though this was the last book, I plan to at least go back to the first (which also a Black heroine).

My rating: You can kill an hour in worse ways 3.9

Scorching hot read

So if you looking with a book with a little romance, intriguing and drama this is it. There is a back story here but this is a fast paced romance. Good read.

CAPTIVATING & RED-HOT ROMANCE!

BEAR THE FIRE-Firebear Brides-Book 4- A red-hot standalone romantic story.

This story features; Rhodes, a muscular, traffic-stopping gorgeous, bear-shifter and smokejumper; Kali, a curvy, audacious, green-eyed beautiful human and singer.

What you'll find in this story; a cast of remarkably impressive and engaging characters, fantastic story-line, dynamic scene descriptions, phenomenal banter, heart-rending moments, gripping suspense, horrific danger, life-threatening incidents, skyrocketing heart-throbbing sensual romance, and a magnificent conclusion that leaves you wanting more.

Abigail, Ragnar's mate was able to contact Rhodes, the youngest Hamilton brother to get him to come to Hamilton house to help with the fires. Rhodes has horrific past memories and plays havoc with his life daily either smokejumping or dangerous sports. Ragnar, has Rhodes's ex-girlfriend Kali come to Hamilton house hoping that she can help his brother finally settle down. When Rhodes and Kali see each other again sparks fly, but Rhodes knows he is the bad seed brother and wants to leave to protect her from himself.

WOW-INCREDIBLE fast paced well written read by a truly gifted author. The characters are awe-inspiring and certainly praise-worthy. The chemistry between Rhodes and Kali is fabulous and the romance ignites the pages. Kali's undying devotion for Rhodes shines like a beacon and her lion-hearted persona makes her a most valiant heroine. I relished this story; a most gratifying read. If you dote on shifter romance this is a terrific story for your library. In the world of shifter romance the possibilities are endless and always fascinating. {I received a copy of this book for a completely honest review}. Without reservations I recommend this book and this series.

I was given an ARC by the author in exchange of an honest review.


This is the fourth book in the series and in my opinion it was the most awesome of all!!!!

Rhodes is the most tortured and broken of all 4 brothers and he has been running all of his life and still runs.

Kali's life has been half after that aweful night ....after what happened and after Rhodes living her.

Now his brothers have plans for him and that includes him and Kali getting back together but can they face their hidden secrets and stop running?
Also there is still an arsonist on the loose...can they survive a new fire??


SO freaking well written and full of action and the emotions just beat down at you hard to ignore any of the characters!!!

Strong headed and stubborn both characters are damn hot.....together they are explosive!!!

An amazing series by Anya Nowlan and an amazing ending!!!!!!!

Absolutely loved this series...if you haven't read it its a must must must must must must must must read!!!!

This is a short, sweet story of two people that love one another but have kept their distance. They now have a second chance at making it work. Rhodes left Kali because he thought she would have a better life without him. Kali never really recovered and has just been treating water to survive. When they are brought back together, the chemistry explodes. These two can't keep their hands off each other. The sex is easy but the staying and making a relationship work are much harder for them.

I enjoyed seeing Rhodes reconnect with his family. Kali seems so sad and didn't really become alive until she saw Rhodes again. You root for them to find a way to make it work this time.

I received a copy in return for a honest review.

OH MY GOSH..... Where do I even start? Rhodes is running from his demons and his past. He cant deal with it and he runs from it. The one thing he regrets is Kali.

Kali is stuck in limbo. She hasn't moved on. She cant get over the one man who is it for her Rhodes. She gets a call from Ragnar will she do what he asks.

These two have a history that they need to face together. Will they come out of it whole? Will they find out who has been starting the fires? Will anyone get hurt this time? Will they fulfill there Uncles will?

Received this free Arc copy from the author for an honest review.
Rhodes and Kali are tricked into seeing each other again by his brothers. A wedding has to be agreed but will they.The chemistry is still there but will secrets from the past split them up. Forest fires.. decisions to be made and weddings to sort this is a brilliant 4th story. Hoping for at least one more story for a catch up.

An ARC was given to me for an honest review. Ragner called in a favor, she owed him. She came to saves Rhodes supposedly. Of course, he didn't know he needed saving, lol. Rhodes and Kali can't figure out why they can't get themselves together. It's because they need each other but they've been running in opposite directions. This quick hot story will clear up the fire mystery and take care of the Hamilton brothers legacy. Enjoy I did.

This forth book in the series tell the story of Rhodes and Kali's journey towards love. I have mixed feelings about this book. As always with Ms. Nowlans books it's well written and has great characters. I loved the ending. I just didn't like Rhodes. I wasn't happy with how he treated Kali. I also think it should have been much longer with more growth put into Rhodes character. But all in all it was still a good read and I recommend it.

****Gifted ARC copy****

Kali only has one love that walked out on her and she never stops thinking about him. When a favor is called in from someone in her past she has no choice but to agree to it. Rhodes lives his life on the edge and he doesn't want to go back home but his brothers need his help and it's not like he has anything better to do at the moment. Until he's see Kali again and everything come back. Will they be able to make it work this time?

I have enjoyed this entire series, the characters were well written and acted in a manner that called to their personalities. The plot moved along very smoothly and I connected with the area of shifter grove and all of the characters. I hope there are more stories to come from this author and about this little town that sounds like a wonderful place to call home.

Another great series

I continue to fall for Shifter Grove. The arson that has plagued the community is just another problem that they all work together to figure out. Each Hamilton brother has found their mate and fate works miracles to keep them all together. Very happily ever after type of series.

Rhodes and Kali's story was short and fast
pace. It was also sweet. They each were struggling with their past issue. He is a smoke jumper, bear Shifter, who ran from place to place. He was the youngest of the Hamilton boys. She was stuck in her same rut not ever moving on... until Ragnar Hamilton gives her a call.

Sexy smokejumper bear

Rhodes is a little out of control after seeing his father die in front of him and loosing the one woman who loved. Now Kali is back but will he let her into his heart? Or will the danger that has been causing the wildfires destroy their happiness?

I'm hoping the author gives us another book that wraps up the reasons behind the antagonist's actions in these books. As of right now left with more questions than answers.
