Er wird alles tun, um sein ungeborenes Kind zu beschützen.
Lori Rowlands hat die Nase voll von den Versagern, die sie magisch anzuziehen scheint; die Sorte Mann, die nur ein bisschen mit ihr spielt und dann verschwindet, wenn es langweilig wird. Sie möchte Leidenschaft und Liebe, sie möchte jemanden, auf den sie sich verlassen kann. Und das bedeutet, dass sie besser die Finger von ihrem Chef, dem zum Anbeißen heißen Anwalt Clifford Bone, lässt. Aber ein bisschen spielen, kann ja wohl nicht schaden, oder?
Clifford Bone weiß, wie man Frauen um den Finger wickelt. Chef und reich zu sein, hilft dabei auf jeden Fall. Außerdem stehen die Frauen drauf, wenn sein innerer Bär in ihm erwacht. Zumindest glaubt er das. Und dann kommt auch schon das nächste Abenteuer: Seine neue Angestellte, Lori Rowlands. Wer könnte diesen Kurven schon widerstehen? Doch dann verändert sich alles für ihn. Lori wird schwanger und sein alter Rivale hat sich in den Kopf gesetzt, seinen Klan endgültig auszulöschen. Was zum Teufel?
Ungewöhnliche Zeiten, erfordern ungewöhnliche Maßnahmen. Lori und ihr ungeborenes Kind haben nichts mit der Feindschaft zwischen den beiden Klans zu tun. Er muss sie aus der Schusslinie bringen. Die einzige Möglichkeit ist… Lori zu entführen.
Zwischen den beiden entwickelt sich doch mehr… Je mehr Zeit Clifford und Lori miteinander verbringen, desto bewusster wird ihnen, dass die Leidenschaft, die zu der ungeplanten Schwangerschaft geführt hat, noch immer brodelt. Und vielleicht ist da sogar noch mehr…

Jasmine Wylder is a renown paranormal romance writer who is proud to have published dozens books ever since she came out with her debut novel in 2016.
This former mechanical engineer loves finding inspiration in her day-to-day life while walking her dogs in the moonlight, exploring the countryside she lives in, as well as travelling and discovering new foods and cultures. She’s always found comfort in fantasy: dreaming about vampires, shifters, and dragons (her favorite).
Her love for books comes second only to her love for her two sons and amazing husband, whom she enjoys spending time with when she’s not busy crafting beautiful worlds and universes for her readers to dive into.
So I wasn't too big on the last story I read. But this one was really good. I enjoyed Lori and Clifford story. Lori not so sure about becoming a mother. Her past coming up to haunt her. Clifford, everyone knows he is a manwhore but extremely excited to become a father. But will his past come to haunt him also with his past bedmates?
These two have a lot to talk about. And if they can just talk and maybe get past their past, they might just get the family they both want. And in the meantime, there is a horrible man after Clifford's family.
I really did enjoy everything about this story. I voluntarily read an advance reader copy for my honest review.
Es un libro que me ha gustado mucho pero que creo que como con todos los libros de esta autora se me quedan un poco cortos, aunque en este caso a condensado muy bien toda la acción y la relacción en las 102 páginas y me ha gustado mucho, pronto reseña en el blog.
I am leaving my review after voluntarily reviewing an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
She has a trail of broken hearts and emotional scars, and she has had enough. Lori has decided that enough was enough. She had met someone that she enjoyed spending time with, and now she has something else to think about. Getting home from work and seeing a wine glass half filled in her kitchen, she didn't leave that there, and she isn't drinking alcohol right now. Her mind now focuses on if she left something that tells her secret in the bathroom.
He is a sweet talking handsome bear shifter. Charming, adorable, and knows how to make the women swoon is the name of Clifford's game. He has met someone that he has been "seeing" without it being serious, and he is quite content with that. He isn't boyfriend material he keeps telling himself. He has the weight of the world on his shoulders, and that load is about to increase soon.
The truth is revealed, Lori arrives home to find someone there, and that someone knows her secret. Due to being in a hurry to get to work she forgot to get rid of it. Since her sister moved out no problems, right? Nope her sister (Jasmine) is there, and now they are discussing this. Ok, more like Jasmine is discussing and Lori is left to listen. Clifford finds an envelope on his computer keyboard after walking into his office. That is odd, his secretary wouldn't do this, and the woman he is seeing wouldn't do this either. He opens it and the note makes it clear who and what this is about, but it is the picture that falls out with the letter that really puts Clifford's bear and himself on high alert. He has to do something and quick.
He arrives at Lori's place, trying to explain but between the sisters arguing and him bantering with Lori, nothing is getting solved. Clifford proceeds to hoist Lori over his shoulder and starts to vacate the place. Only thing is Clifford and his bear didn't know that Jasmine, Lori's sister is a panther shifter. And shift she does. Now the two shifters are in a battle to protect Lori. Ultimately though Lori talks Jasmine and Clifford down and proceeds to leave with Clifford, sort of on her own. They talk a little, but Lori is hiding something else. Clifford can sense it, but he knows Lori enough to know when she needs to discuss it she will and until then she will not. But it is going to need to come to the discussion sooner rather than later, when Lori and Clifford are faced with a lot of things running at top speed for them to face.
Lori tells Clifford something, and being a lawyer he knows how to take what she is saying and legally do something about it, but his bear and his heart is telling him this is not what is to happen. Discussions happen, and the truth comes out. The other twists to add to their unchartered feelings and lives start happening faster than they feel they can keep up. To protect Lori, Clifford hides her away at his family's place, family members from both sides "help" decision making. The threat that provoked this whole ordeal into high gear has died down. Until an ultrasound reveals a secret, and then a bomb starts another secret meaning coming to light.
The next thing you know there is a kidnapping during a fight between bears and clansmen, some tricks used but nothing compares to Clifford coming in and saving his mate Lori. Just in the knick of time because that double duty surprise is about to show up and fast. Clifford panics, Lori panics but once at the hospital and Lori's sister and Clifford are they things progress quickly and yet not quickly. All the talking that had been done, the announcing of feelings and now this family emerging from the chaos, all start this awesome forever after for them.
I thought the story was well written and had a nice steady pace. Lori and Clifford make for an interesting read. Heating up the pages to family members coming in at the wrong times. Just enough going on to keep your interest wondering about Cliff and Lori. Loved the story. Thank you for sharing your book with us. Got for an honest review.
Lori and Clifford’s story goes from a flighty human (Lori), who cleans for bear shifter Clifford, but wants more from him than she thinks she deserves. Clifford takes Lori to bed , not realizing she is his mate and could possibly get pregnant. As fate will have she did and that’s where things get really interesting. Goes from the past come out of the woods to try to end Clifford’s family line, which now includes Lori as she carries his cub !! Read how Lori and Clifford fight for each other, their lives, their cubs and any chance of a life after the baby is born and their foe vanquished!! 4⭐️‘s for a great shifter book in the Fated Mates series by Jasmine Wylder. Can’t wait for her next book .
This is Clifford and Lori's story . Lori is hired to clean the offices and after she sees her boss she has the hots for him wanting him badly ! After having him she later finds out she is pregnant and is afraid to tell him . Clifford is a lawyer and finds a plain white envelope on his desk unopened . His first thought was that it was from Lori but then he just knew this is something she would not do . Deciding to go ahead and open it he gets the shock of his life !! This leads him to act without thinking and kidnaps Lori for her safety . I just have to say this story is well written and I myself love it !! Strongly recommended to all !! Thank you for this ARC is is just so good I had to leave a review !!!
🐻💜🔥👶 Will Clifford's bear be capable of protecting the mother of his unborn child? January 20, 2018 Format: Paperback Lots of action and some very steamy moments. Having read the previous books in the series, I would not say this is my favorite, but it is a decent plot with more tension, fighting shifters and a human heroine who's been around the block and finds herself pregnant after some heated encounters with her shifter boss. For me, the story lagged a bit in the middle, then built quickly to an exciting conclusion.
I received a complimentary advance copy of this book from the author; this is my voluntary and honest review.
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book My mother used to tell me “the woman picks the man” well in this case it is true. Lori Rowlands wants her boss Clifford Boone. He is hot , sexy , clever, well the full package really. Problem is, she wasn’t expecting to get pregnant or be in danger from an old enemy of Cliffords Lori seems to be mixed up at times, due to her erratic past with men. I know she just wants to be loved and cared for but I think she is scared. Cliff is just what she needs. A fast paced story of passion, lust, family commitments, loyalty, danger and so much more. At times it did seem a bit rushed but all in all another brilliant story.
When Lori discovered she was pregnant, she is unsure of what to do. When his enemy comes back, Clifford struggles with what he wants. Clifford's enemy is determined to destroy his family, but will Clifford come through? Will Lori finally find the family she has always unknowingly longed for?
These two were definitely steamy! I did think that communication was probably a big downfall between the two being she was hormonal and he was worried. I love the fact that Clifford was determined to be a father to his child, even if he was unsure at the time his feelings towards Lori. Didn't blame Lori for her scares being how she was raised. Good read!

Book 4 of the Fated Bears series. I do have to tell you that I have really loved all of these books, this one though wasn't my favorite. Don't get me wrong, it was still a good read. Lori is pregnant with Clifford's baby. He is a bear shifter and she works for him. They aren't in any type of relationship besides employer/employee and maybe a tryst here or there. Will they be able to come together for the sake of the baby? What will happen when Lori's life is in danger? Take a look for yourself and find out what happens. I would recommend starting with book 1 in the series because names and characters are part of each of the following books.
Clifford is just perfect for Lori. He has been very "friendly" in his past but he is very serious when it comes to her. I like that he is upfront with her about his feelings and he is very patient and considerate. Lori is very emotional, rightly so though and they are very energetic, lol. As their love blooms, they are surrounded by danger which adds the action and drama to the plot peaking the excitement level plus allows his bear to have some aggressive time. Well written, entertaining and immediately gripped me in. Enjoyed my time in their world, love their story, not to mention the super sexy cover!!
Lori Rowlands cleans the law office of Clifford Boone and she has been having an affair with him, now she is pregnant. Clifford found out she was pregnant and he kidnaps her after her and the baby's life is threaten. This is the fourth book in the Fated Bears series and I love this one as much as the other three. I do recommend this story, I really enjoyed reading this story and look forward to reading more by Jasmine Wylder. I received an ARC and have voluntarily left a review.
Lori elle semble un peu paumer dans le t3 mais elle est prête à tout pour sa sœur. On voit qu’elle se bat contre elle même, son manque de confiance en elle. Le bébé change tout pour elle. Clifford est super attentionné avec elle, il s’occupe bien d’elle et la fait passer en priorité. Ils avaient clairement besoin de se trouver l’un l’autre.
Ça suit les autres tomes. C’est sympa, y’a de l’action et c’est mignon. On a aussi des personnages soudés entre eux. On voit toujours certains des anciens tome.
ARC - I voluntarily offered to review this book with no obligations and my opinions are honest! Lori was done w/ loser boyfriends. Clifford was not ready to settle down. However, there is a little problem. A "it will be born in 9 months" kind of problem. What is Clifford+ Lori to do? Well, they will have 9 months to figure it out. Loved the interaction between Lori + Clifford! Loved the storytelling + the characters!
Lori was a fantastic character while dealing with Clifford who was protective of her to the point of kidnapping her. Both characters were likeable and well developed and the secondary characters were also great. The book had suspense and mystery along with plenty of action in and out of the bedroom. This was another great shifter book with a HEA and was fun to read. Loved it! I am voluntarily reviewing an arc I received
Sweet quick read. We have Lori who has always been wild and came from a bad home life. She goes to work for Clifford's law firm so that she can have sex with him. She ends up pregnant and now someone wants to kill her. When Clifford finds out he is out of control, not even realizing that Lori is his mate. Will he be able to protect her? Will Lori's sister except him to be with her? What will happen to the rest of his family? I received an arc copy for my honest review.
Lori, who doesn't keep a steady job and her fly by the seat of her pants personality, finds herself pregnant by her current boss. Clifford Boone, bear shifter and attorney, must keep Lori and his family safe from his nemesis who is out to destroy them all. This is a straight forward story. I enjoyed it but maybe not as much as the others in the series.
I was gifted an ARC in return of an honest review. (Read 01-21-18 My apologies to the Author I didn't realize it hadn't been posted.)
First let me say that I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book, but it in no way influenced my feedback. I always leave an honest review.
I enjoyed this story very much. I called it, I knew this story had to be about Lori. But what I didn't know was how it was gonna be so much drama, and it is. I couldn't put this book down until I was finished. And my emotions were high, to say the least. :) I recommend this read. 5 Thumbs up

Another fantastic book in the Fated Bears series by Jasmine Wylder!The Bear Shifter's Baby is filled with action, suspense, drama and the chemistry between Lori and Clifford is absolutely scorching. Clifford is one hot overprotective papa bear!!!! I voluntarily read an advanced reader copy of this book.
I just knew that eventually Lori would have Clifford's attention. But, she did get a bit more than she set out to get. She was looking to slip between his sheets and have some fun. When she finds out she's pregnant, she doesn't know what to do. Before she can even tell Clifford about the baby, the alpha that killed his clan spills the beans and threatens Lori and their child. This book shows how far a father will go to protect his family. It's not all threats and fights, Lori is staying with Clifford, his niece and mother at their home for her safety. It is funny how Clifford's family or Lori's sister don't know how to knock or what a closed door means. I loved this addition to the Fated Bears series. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.
Yet again Jasmine Wylder has written a beautiful steamy read that captivates the reader from start to finish. I really enjoyed reading this story. I like the way I hear more about characters I have read about in previous books. This is a standalone book with no cliffhangers. I voluntairly reviewed an ARC of this book.
Lori is Jasmine's sister, Jasmine is a jaguar shifter mated to a Dr. Bear...Clifford was his lawyer and also a bear. Lori thinks he's HOT and needs a job so she gets a job at his office. Things get hot from there...Love the story and love Clifford and Lori. This author writes awesome stories...Definitely recommend them all
1 Star = DNF. 2 Star = Finished. Didn’t really enjoy. 3 Star = Finished. Story was neither good nor bad. 3.5 Star = Finished. Story was neither good nor bad. Will probably pick up next in series if there is one. 4 Star = Finished. Enjoyed story & will definitely pick up next in the series! 5 Star = Bloody LOVED it! ❤️
I thought I had already reviewed this book but.... I enjoyed the story around the main characters and I liked the hero but I really didn't care for the female lead. I'm ready for the next book in the series.
Wylder introduces the next pair smoothly in each book but still manages to give them their own story. Previous history is implied early on which makes the rest of the book more smooth.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. I loved this book. Lori & Cliffords story was great! Clifford is not the typical alpha male but he's still very protective. Lori is a few spirit. How can they work?
I received this from the author in exchange for an honest review. I did not enjoy this one as much as the other. The story was all over the place and hard to follow at times. I just wasn’t in love with it. Lori was spastic and hard to like and Clifford had too much alpha in him.
