Will the curvy young town girl manage to tame the gruff, sexy mountain man?

Will the big, alpha mountain man be able to give up his solitary lifestyle?



♥ Lana ♥



After years of saving

I finally manage to buy a house

And it’s a disaster…



I thought I could handle a fixer-upper

But it turns out

I bit off more than I can chew



My contractor quit

And the only man willing to help me

Is my brother’s friend



His name is Bear

And he lives in the mountains

And before I met him

I thought he was probably an ax murderer



But, as it turns out

He’s not as scary as his name



In fact, he’s probably the kindest

Most generous man

I’ve ever met...



All I wanted was a contractor

But I ended up with a husband



It was the best week of my life

And I’ll remember it forever…

Needs some major editing for spelling errors.

"And now I want to ride you until your balls erupt their delicious white cargo into my pussy". Excuse me while I gag. Nobody says shit like this.

Lana bought a house that needed work done to it and she thought she could handle it. It was more then she could do, crying to her brother he came up with a plan and talked to his friend Bear of he could help her.
Bear came down from his cabin to help. He knocked on her door and scared her to death. Once she opened the door and talked him to coming in instead of leaving her.
Lana explained everything to Bear. They had a real attention to each other. Near worked on her house all week by Lana never said anything to him until his last day. While he was finishing up, getting ready to leave she came around the corner all done up. She tripped on a step and he caught her. Bear wanted to know why she was all dolled up. Lana wanted to say Thank You to him for all his hard work.
That was the start of a wonderful relationship. Bear moved in with Lana, they had some children and she helped him get along with people since he had lived by himself for so long. He fixed her house as she fixed him.

First things first; I like the cover of this book!
Bear is the second book in the ‘’mountain alpha’’ series.
This story is short, fast paced and an enjoyable read. I read this book in one sitting and was satisfied throughout. I found the writing style easy to follow, the characters likeable and the storyline enjoyable. When Lana buys a fixer upper house, she needs help. When her brother sends someone to help her, she doesn’t expect to find love.
The chemistry between Bear and Lana is clear to see and I liked them together. I have to admit; I wasn’t a fan of Lana for a good while. For the majority of this story, she irritated me.
I really liked the ending and the epilogue for this story.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and it is an enjoyable read. I cannot wait for more books from this series.

When Lana buys a fixer-upper she doesn't realize how much work it needs. As she's on the verge of a tears, her brother sends help in the form of Bear, a friend of his that lives up the mountain from her. Bear didn't realize he was lonely until he met Lana. Its insta-attraction for them both but they aren't sure where they stand with each other. Will they be able to fix any misunderstandings as easily as Bear fixes her house? I like this quick romance told in dual POV with descriptive details, minimal dialogue that conveys everything necessary and has a satisfying epilogue. Passionate entertainment!

Bear is a fast sweet story that will make you smile. Lana's plan fix up her house is more than she expected, with leaks all around, she calls her brother for help. Bear has lived up on the mountain for about eight years, and only comes down the mountain when needed. Wanting to help a friend, Bear showed up on Lana's door late at night.

Bear feels an instant connection to Lana, but holds himself back. But when Lana and Bear let down their wall, their passion and chemistry is off the charts. This tale is a perfect for getting lost in when you need an escape.

This was a quick read. Lana is independent and hardworking but when her house is letting in more rain than keeping out, she’s willing to accept help. Bear was told his friends sister needed help and it was an emergency so coming down from the mountain wasn’t too bad until he saw Lana standing in the doorway. His protective instincts kick in and all he can think about is Lana and making her smile. An engaging storyline with real characters who meet each other at just the right time. I received an arc copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Luna has bought a fixer upper but it's a total wreck. Her brother is telling Luna that he has a new carpenter coming over since her other carpenter quit. Bear is the biggest mountain man that Luna has ever seen and he's also the best carpenter around. The minute they see each other there is an instant connection. When they finally get together it is totally explosive. Lana and her mountain man have a beautiful HEA. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

The author has given us a fast paced, quick read that pulls us into the lives of Bear and Lana. When Bear leaves his mountain cabin to help the sister of his friend, he has no idea how she will change his world.
