Bear Game
Jackson told his brother Grayson he needed a mate. Jackson also told him he was taking time off. Sienna had an appointment to redecorate the CEO's office. Grayson was instantly taken by her. Celia is his assistant and isn't happy. Evil is afoot. Excellent and fun to read.

Bear Game is an intriguing romance with a slightly different slant on Shifter lore. When he took over his father’s place as alpha of their clan, and CEO of their company Grayson Hawthorne also seemed to take on his father’s persona as well. He’s acting stuffy, controlling and old beyond his years as the weight of the leadership of clan and company bears down on him in unexpected ways. His brothers have a different outlook on life – and they are about to shake up Grayson’s world… in more ways than redecorating his office.
Sienna needs this newest job to secure her partnership. She’s good, really good at what she does, and if she can grab this client then her professional dreams are about to come true. Too bad the man she’ll be working with is as stuffy and set in the past as his office decor seems to be. She hadn’t expected this spark between them, or the evil looks from Grayson’s assistant. No, this job was about to get extremely interesting… and dangerous.
I enjoyed my time in this world. Bear Game has some unique story lines, and it will be interesting to see how they play out. Grayson is definitely all alpha in his attitude and his determination to win his mate. Sienna is human, and this world of shifters is totally unknown to her. She has much to learn quickly, and danger to face immediately. A very unique slant on Shifter lore makes this story compelling and extremely interesting.
I would recommend this story to any Paranormal Romance or Shifter Romance reader. An unique plot line, interesting couple, and more brothers to add into the mix down the line makes for a truly unique read that I believe you’d enjoy.

A beautiful story of love not only for a male shifter for a human female but between brothers who are trying to help. Grayson Hawthorne is the CEO and owner of a company which he has kept tied into the past---the past that included his father. His poor brothers are a tad tired of his work work work ethic and decide to do something about it---one goes off on a "vacation" after hiring a female interior decorator to redo his big brother's office. Sienna McKenzie love her job and is excited to be able to do a job this big.
Two worlds collide although it takes Grayson a little bit of time to realize that Sienna is his mate. Unfortunately there is a little bit of a hitch---a witch has decided he is hers and goes about kidnapping with intent to derail the budding relationship.
This is a great read

Bear Game by best-selling author Terra Wolf and Ally Summers is a Paranormal Romance
Grayson has been the CEO of Hawthorne Global and Alpha of the Ashe Peak Bear Clan since his father died 5 years ago. Grayson takes his responsibilities seriously with his hard work and long hours. When Grayson's brother Jackson tells him that he's tired of being a Hawthorne and wants to take a break from Hawthorne Global, Grayson is confused. Grayson is even more confused when Jackson tells him "You need a mate." Grayson's perfectly happy with his life the way it is and doesn't want a mate or cubs. Until Sienna McKenzie walks into his life.
Sienna, a talented interior designer, has worked very hard to prove herself at work and is nervous about her meeting with Grayson Hawthorne. Three years of hard work and landing the Hawthorne account could lead to her making partner at Bubble Design. Sienna is distracted by the hot as hell Hawthorne CEO Grayson but she manages to rise to the occasion and persuade Grayson to let her redesign the executive suites and his office, and even gives her carte blanche over the complete redesign.
Grayson is confused by his feelings towards Sienna. Never before has he wanted to grab a woman and kiss her. And to top it all off? She's human, not a bear shifter. When it comes to the gorgeous Sienna, resistance is futile. So why fight it? Grayson tells Sienna that he needs her to work onsite, to give Hawthorne Global her full attention. Now that Grayson accepts that he wants Sienna, he isn't going to let her get away. Because she's his to claim. Sienna didn't know it, but Grayson is going to make her his.
Grayson's brother Oliver finds out about Sienna and tells Grayson to take her to Promise Lake, the Hawthorne family mansion in a remote area which has been empty since his parents died, to decorate it. Grayson angrily refuses. While helping Sienna with the furniture, Grayson almost knocks her over but grabs her before she falls, then kisses her. That's when Grayson knows that Sienna is his mate. When Oliver tells Grayson he arranged for Promise Lake to be opened up and ready for Grayson to use to claim his mate, Grayson feels excited. Watching from the sidelines is a jealous and determined witch who wants Grayson for herself.
Bear Game is an entertaining story that's suspenseful, steamy and full of twists and turns. Grayson and Sienna share a deep connection and can barely stop themselves from tearing the clothes off each other. Fans of steamy paranormal romances with a HEA will love this story. I highly recommend this book.

The potential was there but it slipped into humdrumness and I found myself feeling like it was taking forever to finish it. Didn't really feel there was any connection between MCs either.

When Fate chooses you'd better follow and not resist
Grayson as the alpha bear of the Ash Peak clan and CEO of Hawthorne Global he was under constant pressure from all sides. Two of his brothers, Jackson and Oliver, both recognized this. Big brother needed to loosen up and Jackson had a plan. First Grayson had to get away from their deceased father's ever present influence. To do that a redesign of Grayson's office so Jackson had arranged for Sienna McKenzie to meet him after hours to inspect his office. Their meeting was incendiary; just the beginning. I would have given this 5 stars but at a point it two the reading continuity interrupted my thoughts causing me to re-read some passages. I also found some grammar flaws a beta or ARC reader should have caught. All in all I did like this first book in this series.

I was given a gifted copy by Ebook Itch ARC Group.
Grayson is the alpha of his pack and the CEO of the business he inherited from his father. His mind is set on the business and nothing else. However, that changes when he meets Sienna. In that very moment, his bear part awakes to fight with him.
Sienna is a designer who wants to get a partnership with her boss. When she meets Grayson she can’t help herself to feel a raw attraction for him.
A great reading. It is quick, fast paced, with surprises and really grasping. It is well-written and although the back story is not well-developed, which is quite normal for short stories, it is enough to enjoy the book.

A very brief story that went straight to my heart. I loved the characters of this book. Grayson the alpha member of a clan is the CEO of an important firm. His main goal is to continue the work of his loving father without any sort of distraction. His brothers have decided to find him a mate to continue the dynasty. His encounter with Sienna is fantastic, their love unique. I highly recommend this story, the reader will not be deluded by the story.

Wonderful book, super talented author and perfect characters. I fell in love with Grayson and Sienna. He is a work obsessed, billionaire, CEO, clan alpha, bear shifter.

The minute they meet, Grayson's bear rears his head, demanding Grayson claim Sienna as their mate. Grayson doesn't want a mate yet so he fights his bear for control. The instant they share their first kiss, Grayson knows the fight is over. He MUST claim her. But before that can happen, he has to tell Sienna what he is and what it means to be claimed by him. Will she accept him? Will an evil witch succeed in tearing them apart? Will Grayson be able to cut back on his working hours to spend time with Sienna?

Bear Game is an interesting tale that is easily read in one sitting. There's not a lot of depth which was expected in a story of this length, but the storyline and characters caught my attention and held it. There is a bit of drama to keep a reader turning pages and a bit of introduction to the other Hawthorne Bros. I'll be interested to see what happens next for this family.

I voluntarily reviewed this ARC book. Wonderful novella. Grayson is not only the CEO of a billion dollar company, he is the recently made Alpha of his bear clan. He is happy with just these titles and does not want to change anything. But a meddling brother changes things up when he takes a leave right before Sienna shows up. Sienna has worked hard to be the caliber designer that she is, but one look at Grayson and she is taken. But will a jealous woman and a very large secret keep Grayson and Sienna from each other?

A quick read with lovable lead characters and of course one character you love to hate. I hope there will be more books to include the brothers finding their mates. I received a free copy of this book and volunteered to review it.
