Bear Necessities

Guardians of Espen #3

by Alana Hart, Sophia Barron

Jaxon Cole needs balance in his life. Balance is hard to find without a stable base to stand on. Jaxon left half his leg, all his balance, and most of his soul on the desert sands. And trouble still follows him, looking to steal away the most valuable thing he has left—life.

Melody Davis moves to Espen in search of peace and safety. She finds her own personal haven when she purchases the Naughty North Cafe. But haven on earth can’t last, and Melody’s peace is under fire. Melody sparks a new fire when she spots Jaxon stumbling into town. Dirt, sweaty, and tripping over his own two feet, she’s still drawn to him.

Can these two lost souls find what matters most on the razors edge between peace and conflict?

[Linda Levine · Rating 5 out of 5]

I really enjoyed this story of two people trying to start over after bad circumstances. Jaxon is a shifter who fought for his country and lost part of his leg. He is also wanted by some terrorists and trying to protect his mom from harm. Melody is looking for peace in a new place and thought she found it until some trouble starts. The town is very protective and they work together to keep them all safe from harm.

It is a really nice romance with two characters who deserve love and kindness. They weren't looking for someone but the connection and chemistry is there from the very first meeting. The pace is good and keeps you interested.

I received a copy in return for a honest review.

Jaxon is a bear shifter that was wounded in the war, and left a part of himself in the sands of that war torn country. Melody left everything behind and moved to Espen for peace, and she has wounds that haven't healed. A corrupt cop is terrorizing Melody and Jaxon will do anything to protect her and make her his mate. Fantastic book. Gods, shifters and magic, I loved this book!

I received this ARC free from the authors in exchange for an honest review.
